 Is there any truth in the old say ing. green Christmas makes fat church yards? Let us hope not, any way. If there were it looks as if there would not be many left to enjoy another recurrence of the nativity of the Prince of Peace, for probably this is the finest Christmas eve any man ever saw in this part of the world. There's no snow to speak of on the ground and the sun was so warm dur ing the greater part of the day that one could be about minus an overcoat without any danger of catching cold. We should all be happy for the delight full shopping weather and take our chances for what will come after it.. There's no use worrying over what the future will bring. If we shouldn't be spared to see another Christmas, the world will move just the same, and probably we'll be in better place.
