Carving
the Christmas
Turkey

To carve the Christmas turkey skill
fully and successfully requires a
knowledge more than that acquired by
general observation. To the amateur
carver as he watches the practiced
hand it seems the simplest thing in
the world. but when he attempts to
duplicate the feat he soon discoTerS
that a careful study of the birds an
atomy is necessary.
At the Christmas dinner the turkey
is of first Importance and the proper
handling o, the fowl means much
toward the success Of the Wand.
The host usually manipulates the
carving knife and fork. There seems
to be a tradition that on this day the
bird in all it's brown and savory splen-
dor should be placed intact upon the

every man might take heart in the
struggle and have a reasonable hope
of being able to live likewise.
This gift of service is the best gift
which can be given to the world. And
this gift is within the reach of every
body. There is no excuse for those
who do not make it, None are too
busy to be friendly and none too great
to stoop to little kindnesses. | once
thought there were natures that could
not be cordial, but know now that 1t
was a mistake The most ineXorable
duty men ever have is to love and to
render services of love. 1t was one OF
the last teachings of Jesus that we will
be Judged at last by our attitude in
practical service to the sick, the op-
pressed, the stranger and to those who
lack the plainest necessities Of food
and clothing.
But this spirit of Christmas which
is to find it's expression in the gift of
loving service is not the spirit of mere

spired by comradeship is not beautiful
at all. 1t may be pity from proud
heart. but that is not friendship, and
it is not the deep brotherly love of
Christianity. Men needs friends more
than they need aims. We all need
each others friendships. We are in
separately bound together as men of
one race and men of all races. The
powerful need the sympathy and rec
ognition of the humble, the rich of the
poor, and the cultured of the unrefned,
and for this reason the life which finds
its expression in unaffected and uni
versal friendship is the life which has
most nearly caught the spirit of Christ
and Of Christmas. Let us give gifts,
and among them that larger gift of
loving service. Thus will the spirit
of Christmas be shed abroad and make
the world brighter and better.

The Spirit of
Christmas
Bv DIR. WORTH VI. TZPPY

OF all the years festival days, Christ
mas is peculiarly the festival OF love.
Easter commentaries the resurrection
of Jesus. 1t Is our festival OF life,
divine and immortal; for the power
that raised Christ from the dead has
passed into the lives Of the millions.
1t comes with peculiar appropriate
ness at the season of the year when
nature is awakening to spring and
everywhere are warm winds, sunshine,
growth and beauty.
THANKSGIVING is our festival OF Di-
vine Providence, celebrating the loV-
ing care of God over all that He has
made. 1t comes at the time when, IN
agricultural communities, the earth's
fruitage has been garnered and the
wears work draws to close. 1t is a
good time in all pursuits to close the
books with God, and to bring to Him
the only nossible return for His benef-
cence. the gratitude and appreciation
of our hearts.
But Christmas is the climax Of the
Christian year. 1t is our festival OF
love. and as such is it not beautifully
fitting that the day should be cele-
brated by the bestowment Of gifts :?
II Is as natural for love to give as for
birds to sing and for flowers to grow.
The spirit of Christmas is the spirit
of giving This spirit takes hold upon
all classes of people, carrying into
every soul the sweetness and purity of
loves ministry. 1t lavishes gifts in
homes Of wealth and it finds way in
the direst poverty.
Christmas was the day when God
gave His richest gift to men-Jesus
the Christ-and that marvellous git of
the ages has proved the inspiration
of the day and given birth to the
spirit of giving among men. And for
this reason let us give remembrances
To lust as many people as we can af-
ford to give, to those of our own
homes. to our friends and to the poor.
It doesn't need to be much, so that
n Is a token of friendship. Remember
particularly the lives that are cast in
hard places. Lift mortgage, pay a
debt, send a check to the brave wom-
an who is fighting for her children.
Bring the young man or young woman
who Is away from home to your own
Preside. Send Christmas dinner
where you are sure there would be a
scanty one If you did not send it.
The spirit of Christmas Is love ex-
pressing itself in service. The love
Of God found Its expression in the gift
Of Saviour to the world. The love of
Christ found its expression in the gift
Of life of pure and unselfsh service
10 mankind He gave Himself to the
closest association with men so that

a platter of sufficient size to hold the
fowl and its disjointed portions are
necessary to enable the carver to work
with neatness and dexterity.
Whether it is good form to sit or
stand while accomplishing the work
depends entirely upon the comfort Of
the performer. There is also a ques-
ton as to whether the head OF the tur-
key should be to the carver's right or
left. This is also for the individual
to decide, but generally the head is to
the left, as the wings and legs are
more easily disjointed with a stroke
from left to right. If the company be
small and the bird one of good size,
