4 CHRISTMAS HOUSE PARTY
Skating, coasting and sIeshing Good
Country Pastime While City Offers
Sightseeing, Music.

A house party at Christmas affords
the young people Of the family a
chance to be gay and CHEEKY for
weekend or more. The charm Of a
house party is in the bringing together
Of congenial guests who spend sew.
eral days with their hosts. When the
girls and boys return from college or
boarding school for the holidays they
often bring with them as guests class
mates whose homes are too remote to
make 1t worth while for them to take
a long and expensive journey for the
recess. The girl and the boy who hail
from the west and attend an east
ern school Of learning, may be forced
to spend a homesick holiday II no
comrade tenders an invitation to Join
q family group.
tobogganing and sleigh riding are the
pastimes Of the country. while the city
offers sightseeing, music and the
other diversions. The long evenings
at home, the little parties invited to
meet the visitors. and the whole merry
and swiftly passing time make 9
Christmas house-party one Of the gals
seasons Of the year The house
keeper finds that her provision fo1
the table must be ample. Her PIES
and cakes disappear like magic, To-
young people are noted for good ap
petites. Tableaux, charades and con
undrums are among the amusement,
appropriate to such a party. Story
telling around the fire with the light
turned down. II the tales are of ghost
and spooks. is sure to be a favorit
feature Of the festivity.

Tust as truly as love is, Santa Claus is.
~ Santa Claus is personified senti-
ment he is a reality.
We speak and learn and teach of God
whom the world has never seen except in
Christ Jesus, yet His existence is manifest
in everything. He is a reality.
Santa Claus need not exist in physical
form to be comprehensible-hi spirit is
endowed and devolved upon millions Of
willing personifiers. who in the spirit in
which old Santa himself would shower
blessings, shower them for him.
1t isn't lie to tell the children Santa is
coming; it isn't even white" lie
Santa Claus is coningl
He may be the father, mother. brother or
a stranger. but the sentiment of Santa
Claus is upon him. He IS Santa Claus.
Heis the expression Of that which other
exist: He is the action of world-old
thought: He is tho physical component
Of Love- Charity and Pity.
| Santa Claus is Love mada tangible.
| He is not one, but many, and it takes al!
the flesh and blood Santa Clauses of all the
world combined to make the one big Santa
Claus whom the children know and wor-
ship and whom we symbolic in great furs
the wondrous figure whose great, kindly
face with its never waning smile invites the
confidence of the universe.
Santa Claus is.
His visible form is generosity and kind
ness.
You can see him giving The newsboy
| quarter for penny paper.
You can see him, Scrooge-hke though it
may seem, helping here and there;
Or, and this is nobler than all the rest.
you can see him sharing his last tiny mite
with another. while tears of pity and hap
pness mingle in the bright smile the
token gives.
Every household in it's own way knows
it's Santa Claus.
Don't deceive the children by telling them
there is no such person.
Santa Claus is, and may he always be.

tials probably the change Is
not so great as it seems. What
grandma and grandpa have in mind is
that the old-time simplicity pertaining
to the great festal day has given way
and elaborate. The gift that comes
in gilt-bordered box, tied in pink
ribbons, probably is opened with as
much expectant thrill, however, as
the exploration Of the oiden-time
stocking occasioned.
We get little glimpses here and
there in the colonial chronicles Of
Christmas and there are plenty of
traditions afloat Of the rural before
the-war Christmas. Always the
Christmas feast has been q great
event in the social life of the state.
1t has been a day Of family reunions
from colonial days down to now. A
Maryland Christmas feast Of the olden
time is aptly described in that classic
phrase "the table fairly groaned un-
| der the burden OF the viands." Stump
tuous plenty was the first law Of the
| olden Christmas feast. 1t wasn't SO
much on the decorative settings; it
didn't make a specially Of fancy sal
ads. but there was nothing to be de-
sired in way Of substantials.
AS was the feast so were the Christ

This demand always exceeds the nor

A CHRISTMAS SONG.

oh. Christmas Is Jolly time,
When forests hang with snow.
And other forests bend with toys,
And lovely Yule-logs glow!
And Christmas Is solemn time
Because, beneath the Star.
Tho nrst crest Christmas gift was given
To all men, near and Tar.
But not alone at Christmas time
Como holiday and cheer.
For ono who loves Q little child
Hath Christmas all the year.
