The Spirit OF Christmas.

Why is it that Christmas is the most
joyous season of all the yearp Doubt
less it is due in part to the fact that it
brings home to us in a very emphatic
way the thought of Gods great Gift of
love in Jesus our Saviour. But that is
not the whole explanation. Even so
great a message as that which the angels
sang to the astonished shepherds of
Bethlehem cannot make one happy who
is selfish. The primary secret of the
gladness of Christmas lies in the fact of
our forgetting ourselves for a while and
thinking of others. AT other times we
are too prone to think most about what
we can get for ourselves. AS Christmas
approaches we begin to plan for making
Others happy. And just the moment we
forget ourselves in our kindly thoughts
for others, God fills our hearts with
light and melody 1t would be well if
we could all so learn this beautiful secret
that we should never forget it. Why not
be unselfish and glad all the year?

North Dakota Facing Coal Famine.

Grand Forks, II. d., Dec 1.-THE fuel
situation to-day is the most critical ever
known in the history of the State. Care
full inquiry in every portion of the north
ern half of the State shows that there is
not town in which coal can be had ex-
cept in small quantities. In dozens of
places there is not a pound to be bought
the dealers having been out of fuel for
days
One of the most serious features is the
possibility of snow blockade. A storm,
such as is usual at any time in the win
ter, would pile up immense drifts and
tie up the roads absolutely for many
days and cripple them for the entire

Christmas Presents.

Sometimes we hear people complain
of the custom of giving presents at
Christmas time. There is something
wrong with the people who do this. For
the giving Of presents at Christmas time
is one of the most beautiful customs that
we have. All of us like to be remem-
bored by our friends, and especially at
this time of the year.
1t is true that the custom can be car
ried to excess, and no doubt often is;
out this is the fault of the Individual,
and not of the custom. 1t is as bad to
give foolish presents. or presents tn at one
cannot afford, as it is to give none at all.
1t is to be borne in mind always that the
true worth of a present consists in the
motive that prompts it, rather than In it's
cost or it's intrinsic value. In fact, it is
getting to begenerally recognized that
expensive presents, even by those who
can afford them, are in bad taste at the
Christmas tide. Expensive presents
should be given to those wo wish to re.
ceive them at some other time.
A Christmas present is or should be a
to let our friends and loved ones know
that we think of them and wish for them
a bountiful share of the good cheer and
Christian feeling that should abound at
this glad season.
And it is our duty to make Just as
many of these gifts as we can. a few
words on a post card, or short letter to
-, =
spirit, will be just as acceptable as a
costly gift.
We saw the other day Christm as
present that had been selected by little
girl for her mother. 1t consisted of a
potted narcissus, just bursting into
bloom. 1t was bought from florist at
tritling cost, but we thought it quite the
prettiest and most appropriate Christ
mas present we have ever seen. Some
small present, such as this, if selected
with care, makes a Eaore acceptable gift
at this season than one moro expensive.
In fact the true observance of the Christ
mas spirit forbids the lavish expenditure
of money. 1t consists rather in bidding
rs many of our friends as possible to be
OF good cheer-to remind them of the
Significance of the day.
1t is the Christmas spirit, rather than
the gift, that makes Christmas gift.
This, then, makes it our duty to send
our gifts-if we call them such-to as
nmany people as we can, and as gladly as
we can. Even if it is nothing more than
the greeting, "Merry Christmas" if it
comes from loving heart, is more highly
priced than costly gift given in sper-
functory manner.
Let us have lots of Christmas giving
this year, and let the gifts be of the right
kind. If we have money to spend in
giving Christmas cheer, let us send the
bulk of it to the poor, or in buying food
and clothing for their comfort, rather
than in buying costly gifts for those who
do not need them and who may not ap.
