VICTORY XMAS
CELEBRATIONIS
OMASIA'S FLAN
Shut-Ins to Be Remembered
and Kiddies to Have Big
Tree During Week's
Entertainment.
"Victory Christmas celebration"
is the official name of the municipal
celebration which is being planned
by city authorities and organiza
tions. i
At a meeting yesterday afternoon
in the city council chamber, Fred
Williams, chairman of the executive
committee, appointed the following
committee chairmen: Finance, C.
F. Bossie; buildings and decora
tions, Richard Grotte; entertain
ment,. Fred Williams; visiting, Ran
dall Brown; music, Hugh Wallace.
To Continue for Week.
The celebration will last all
Christmas week. A big feature will
be bringing Christmas to many
hundreds of "shut-ins" in hospitals,
orphans' homes, old people's
homes, and so on. A special com
mittee will be appointed to ar
range with clubs, lodges, etc., to un
dertake the entertainment in these
places, each club or lodge being as
signed to carry Christmas into some
hospital, old folks' home or other
place where "shut-ins" live.
It is proposed to have Monday
night for "army night" in the Au
ditorium. Mayor Smith wanted the
soldiers to provide the talent, but
Major van Ostrand of Fort Oma
ha pointed out that the soldiers
are going to have a celebration of
their own on Tuesday night at the
fort, and could hardly provide all
the entertainment in the Auditorium
Monday night. So they will pro
vide part of if, and the rest will
be found elesewhere.
Gigantic Tree.
Tuesday night, Christmas eve, will
be the big night for the youngsters.
Mr. Bossie has already arranged
with Trimble brothers to provide a
40-foot tree, and it will be deco
rated, and Santa Claus will be there
ready to give thousands of bags of
candy to the kiddies. It is pro
posed to move the tree to the
courthouse after Tuesday night, as
the Auditorium is to be used for
other purposes.
Bringing Christmas entertain
ment and good cheer to those who
are on beds of sickness or kept in
by old age will mark Thursday,
Friday and Saturday evenings of
Christmas week.

One unfavorable condition of the

possible most of the present school

free hours in which a student may
