l read story some time ago of a
lady who lived alone in beautiful
home located on hill on the outskirts
of small village in the east. Her
cold, proud reserve was barrier over
which few of the village people had
ventured beyond formal call. Christ
mas was only few days off. If the
passersby gave this lady thought at
all in connection with Christmas they
thought she had all money could buy
and needed no more Not so with the
minister's little wife; she looked
many times from her kitchen window
to the house on the hill and thought
of it's lonely occupant, realizing her
slender purse could not buy Christ
mas gift that would be acceptable
there. Christmas morning the min
listers wife climbed the hill, knocked
timidly. When the door was opened
she handed the lady roll of paper
tied with blue ribbon, saying, Here
is one of my husbands sermons; l
think it so good; perhaps you would
enjoy reading it today" 1t was elarned
afterwards that gift, though only
roll of paper, cost comparatively moth
ing, seemed small, yet it was the only
Christmas present this lady had re-
ceived for years and was the begin
ming of lasting friendship between
them This might be thought for
some of us as Christmas time will
soon be here.
