Frank Borzage stars with director William S. Hart and
actress Leona Hutten, in the two reeler "Knight of Trail". Borzage shortly thereafter went on to direct silent film for The Triangle Film Corporation and although copies of the 1918 film "The Gun Woman" still exist, the remaining seven films directed by Borazge during 1918, "Innocents Pogress", "The Shoes That Danced", "Society For Sale", "An Honest Man", "Who Is To Blame", "The Ghost Flower" and "The Atom" (five reels) are presumed to be lost films, with no surviving copies existing, as are the remaining two silent films Frank Borzage directed for the Triangle Film Corporation during 1919, "Tonton the Apache" and "Prudence on Broadway" (five reels).

Donna was at her desk in the library and I went to bring bring her back a coffee. A little girl was crawling underneath one of the tables and playing when she pointed toward me and waved. Well, I thought it was a merely friendly child just waving so I continued on to get coffee and may have quickly half-waved back while spinning through the congregating congregation. Her father, whom I know fairly well was laughing and said "You're Santa Claus". I was busy so politely fended it off apologizing for the snow white beard by saying that I've been sleeping less but would soon look like my old self. After bringing back the coffee, I got through part of an noncredit online college course on the Talmud in between services, which might not be what I'm interested in most and there were Holidays that include Sacred Ritual that I hadn't gotten to- but I needed something new after skipping taking courses during Covid-19 and it gave me the term "omnisignficance" in Rabbinic literature. The lectures were introductory and weren't from anyone that would be attending our service in this part of the country, but those can be made available sometime later and will cover the Torah.
After her working in the library, we attended the church service and I got to say hello to our minister before he began the sermon. This is the third minister I've listened to but during that time there have been two, if not three, backup regular ministers, so Ican compare the present minister to others that may have included more personal ancedotes or more instant cross references of scripture to scripture- in general I might prefer his point of departure.
Then there was Christmas music, a contemporary Christian "almost rock" band,arently guests from Boston College, the Voices of Imani Gospel Choir, that we had seen before in a different form with less brass instruments. I couldn't find the actual concert on You Tube, but as I mentioned they seemed to be quest musicians.
After we got home, I realized that the little girl was waving because she really thought I was Santa Claus.
I thought I might make an exception and add a song to the blog. Happy Holidays together as a fellowship and in your personal relationship to God, or covenant with God.
