They were welcomed by the dolls of candy land. The place was beautifully decorated with candy and sweets. The people decided to give them a big party...

"Soon after lunch Teruko-san and I made nut bread sandwiches for the party Harbins and Belshes will give for missionary families in row.

| The program for the Children's Christmas Pageant |
Rehearsal at 4:30 & party at 7:00. E.S.S. boy, Yamata, brought B a dictionary & Ann a stuffed cat for Xmas. At party Bob was H in spelling Christmas.
Then was shepherd, wise man & king in pageant. Ann was angel & then dressed in white sari to be Indian child. I wore Frances Bray's red sari. Made costume for Ann from old pillowcase & tissue paper wings. Combed her hair down. She looked like pictures of Xmas angels. Served cookies, coffee & cool-aid, hard candies. Party was a huge success. Winnie gave each child a sack of Xmas toys & candy."
