KEEPING CHRISTMAS
Christmas has come to the
world many times since the year
One. Yet millions of people have
1 been unaware of its existence or
meaning. Some unaware be
cause they never had an oppor
tunity to know about Christ.
Others unaware because they
were too busy with other things.
What does Christmas mean to
you? You who have heard the
story many times? You who liv
ed in a comralunity where* many
aids to Christian living are
! available to you? Will you miss
; Christmas because you are too
busy with the affairs of men
; and materials?
And having missed Christmas
what will you miss?
You will miss one more oppor
tunity to grow spiritually.
And equally important, you
will limit the spiritual help
you can give to your neighbor.
And more important, you will
retard the work of God in His
I plan of building the Kingdom in
the hearts of men.
Christmas has come to the
world again. How aware are you
of the spirit of Christ,
We, who pride ourselves on
being grown-ups, should look at
■ the little children if we would
catch the spirit of Christmas. J
They being less spoiled by the
care of things, enter more easily
into the Christmas spirit.
Or come apart awhile and
listen to the story and song about
the shepherd and wise men.
| Look once ndore at the manger
; scene and the star and let the
; spirit of Christ come into your
heart. “Rejoice and be exceed
ing glad—for unto us a child is
born, unto us a Son is given—
He is meek and lowly of heart
—He is the Prince of Peace.
V. L. BOOKER.
MARSHES ARE BACK
FROM MARSHALL
Mr. and Mrs. George Marsh
are back at their home at 1007
H. Street, Seattle, after having
spent the past several weeks at
Marshall. Mr. Marsh was at
tending to the fall work on his
mining property there. The
weather has been very mild
there all fall, he said.
After spending some weeks in
Anchorage, the Marshes plan to
go outside for the rest of the
winter.
