agination trips to painted castles and
gilded walls. 1t is the spirit of child
hood In us that makes the day n Of
hallowed memories. God has wisely Gre
ated childhood so that it fingers not
in those moments Of dark settings but
in those bedecked with a beauty born
in heaven where angels use the paint
er's brush and God does the planning.
Youth has well been compared to that
particular time Of morning when the
Sun first begins to show his smiling
face over the eastern hills and the dew
drops begins to vanish in the air. 1t
is hope, b%uoyancy, and it is we'll that

thing of that spirit that beStirred the
faithful shepherds on the Judean hills
nineteen hundred and eight years ago
and appropriate some of the benedic-
tions born then to demonstrate that
there is ever a halo of divine efful-
gence abroad in the world.
1t is a day worth planning for. Ma
ny, no doubt, have sad memories that
the events of the year nave brought
US. but these should not mar the
Christmas joy Of our associates and
friends.
BY ne mean should the day be one
of drinking and revelry. Nothing
should be done that would bring re-

May they be truly merry and may the
