A Christmas Suggestion.

Would it not be an experiment worth
trying If in every household there were
compact made to give and receive presents
of less cost than heretofore, and to use any
balance of money that might otherwise
have been expended In some way that
shall add real value to the life of those
who are unable to give riffs at all?

CHRISTMAS CAROL

Tia earth has grown old with lis burden Of
care
But at Christmas it always is young;
The heart Of the jewel burns lustrous and fair,
And its soul full Of music breaks forth on the
air.
When the song Of the angels Is sung.
IL Is coming. Old Earth, It is coming tonight
On the snowfakes which cover thy sod
The feet Of the Christ child fall gentle and
white,
And the voice of the Christ child tells out with
delight
That mankind are the children of God.
On the sad and the lonely, the wretched and
poor,
That voice Of the Christ child shall fall,
And 10 every blind wanderer open the door
OF hope that be dared not TO dream OF before,
With q sunshine Of welcome for all.
The feet OF the humblest may walk in the field
Where the feet OF the holiest have trod,
This, this Is the marvel to mortals revealed
When the silvery trumpets of Christmas have
pealed
That mankind are the children Of God.
