Have you observed the beautiful

the meaning of it all. The bill board
advertising associations have started
a big posting crusade and more than
four thousand cities in the United
States now carry these posters. They
are instructive and helpful to young
and old.
The new posters portray the Christ
child with the three wise men and the
scene is laid in Bethlehem in the man
ger where Jesus was born. Then fol
lows these lines taken from Mat
thew: And when they had come
into the house they saw the
young child with Mary, His mother,
and they fell down and worshipped
Him" And then is printed the re-
quest. Ask your Sunday school teach
er what it means"
The design of the posters is beauti-
full and they are not not meant for an
advertisement, but as a Christmas
greeting. Another poster will be put
up the first of the year for similar
purpose.
