That Christmas Letter.

A Christmas letter is the very best
possible Christmas gift, because
letter implies trouble taken and time
spent and a personal touch, and once
it is dropped into the mail box, 1t
carrier, perhaps across a continent
or a nation, a vital thought and the
warmth of a handclasp. Are you
owing any one a letter? Is there
any one whom a letter from you
would very much please? Is there
an absent boy to whom a letter might
go and be the word in season to keep
him from temptation, or give him
strength to resist if the tempter had
designs upon him? Remember that
the best time to write letter is not
tomorrow, but today. Christmas cor
respondence should not be postponed
until the Christmas week, because al
that time the mails are overburdened
and the resources of the post office
department are taxed to the utter
most. r. Sangster, in The
Christian Herald
