social occasion of their lives. Don't

packages OF good things that are sent

Even one who has ten pleasures TO
hese children's one?
SO, no one is going to disappoint
hem this year. AS you have had
"iourneying mercles" all along the
iear. acknowledge them by your
Thanksgiving offerings to the Home.
Give royalty. all YOU can, but above
all give yourself by going. "the gift
