Frankie Goforth, Bill James. Ted James, Jerry Makin, and Clark Mullins, then got to hold a baby lamb, not as easy a job as one might think-at the farm of Mr. Bill Jack Parsons at Wildie. At Mr. Parsons' farm, we also took a picture of a red and white call-looking very awe-struck at the arrival of so many visitors in such strange costumes. I wonder if some of the animals at the stable in Bethlehem might have reacted the same, way?

Mr. G.D. Burton provided us with a donkey to portray the one Mary might have ridden to Bethlehem.

Wayne and Ginalee King let us use their home, with it's lovely high-gabled entrance, to represent the Inn from which Joseph (Bill Towery) was turned away that first Christmas Eve.

The arrival of the Wise Men. supposed by many to have happened several months after Christ's birth, presented a special problem. Joseph and. Mary would have been living in a house by then, but not a house as we would-think of one. Where could we find a simple, plainly constructed house, to be their home? The answer was found in the backyard of Dr. Joe and Ann'Henderson. "Mary" (Julie Dowell) greeted the "Wisemen" at the door of Mary Blanche's old playhouse. » Donna Hopkins' decorating abilities provided us with some lovely slides of a Bible, candles and greenery.

Bill James and Joe Young combined-their photographic talents to produce the slide program. Jim Earl and Libby -Hammons were the narrators, and the Children's Choir sang beautifully t o accompany the pictures. It was a beautiful Christmas experience for everyone, but especially for the children who were privileged to discover what the circumstances surrounding Christ's birth were really like.
