Dnr I'ncle Bill: Christmas means a tot to me when 1 think of the Christmas story Of long ago, when lh c Wise Men followed Qic shining star of the East to see the baby Jesus. The baby Jeans waa lying In a manger at tbe Inn at Bethlehem. How tbe Wise Men gave him presents and bow King Herod tried to

kill him.

Then we should not think of ' ’hriatma* as a day of presents and fun. as some people think of Thanksgiving. But we should be thankful that Jesus was bom on earth to help men and heal the Then 1 think of how be suffered on the cross and died for ns. That could not have happened if be bad not hewn born. Bo wr should be a* thankful on Christmas Day as Thanksgiving Day. and not Just think only of presents and Joy. Even the smaller children should he taught the story of Jesus We should try to help and please the poor and need)'. Everybody known* it is fun to give and receive gift* but we should not Just think of octwelves and presents.

Age Fourteen

Dear Unde BUI:

I am always glad when Christmas time comes because that is the season when every body seems

j to be happy and Jo; -it Everybody - Is busy making things for others

and self seems to be forgotten. My mother Is all the time busy making good things to eat and everytime my Dad comes home she meets him at tbe door .-nd they slip quietly in with packages and bundles, and then there Is the Christmas tree trimmed with beautiful ball- and thm-l. 1 am glnd that Christmas time Is kept sacred, fqr It reminds us of the little baby that was born In Bethlehem ao many years ago and of the beautiful words that the angels sang that night “Peace on Earth. Good Will m Min." I am glad that at Christmas time

j nil the little boys and girls who I have no lather or mother are j taken to nome nl-c place and

c‘.>en toy* and randy and good

[things to eat.

It was lonely. AU the othi r tree* had gone to sleep. She had no one to play with. One night three little rablts came to plav with tbe little fir tree. They raid we must be good, it wiU soon l>e Christinas. •Christmas, said the Hr Tree. ‘What Is Christinas?' Jon't you know what Christinas I Why

Christinas—Just then Santa Claus came, the rabbits ran and Santa said. 'Little Fir Tree, help me.' So be took It !o the house on the Jill) and trimmed It up with dolls and toys and then left."

Faith, Hope and Love —The Triple Crown of Character

Fortunes are unde and lost In a day. Success U a will I'-the-winp. In hand one minute only to slip fr-m our grasp the next. Prosperity shine* a* the sunlight for one hour only to be bidden behind tbe clouds of depression the next. Reputation Is a* fickle as public opinion which praises today and curs— tomorrow. But faith abides. Confidence is the enduring fabric of life, mutual trust to the supporting strength of every social group, the mainstay of everlasting organlxation. "Hope springs eternal In the human heart." It beiyis os the sapling beneath the storm ol oppression, hate and disaster only to spring up again when the gale has blown out Its fury. Hope to rooted deep in the suhnoi!

of the human soul.

Love is eternal. It to the foundation of the Christian home which has outlasted the Infldclity «.f ronturies. It to the harbinger of a better day It survives the fury of tbe flame of hate and lives even In the a«bw of despair.

Faith. Hope and Lore are the essential elements In all true neatness. They are the triple crown pf Christian character. They arc the essential elements in the Christian Church. The greatest men of all ages have been devout Christians who believed in God and the power of prayer. Lincoln, one of the gr-atest nun America has produced, was a constant reader of the Bible fni a student of the Word of God. At the news of the capitulation of Lm, Lincoln and his cabinet dropped to their km .s, and in

i are offered prayer.

A short time before the aaaasslnat'on. he said Vo a minister. “The time has come when I feel I ought to confess my faith, and 1 have made up my mind to apoly for admission to your church." Almost every President of the I'nited State* has been a regular supporter of the church and a firm believer In the guidance of Divine Providence. Croat men are always ready to acknowledge th*-ir belief In God and their own inferiority.
