Every Christmas tree Is lit with that
light. The great food of presents bears
this as its message. The cheer and
charity of the whole season are fed
by this love.

Write a Christmas Letter.

A Christmas letter is the very best
possible Christmas gift. because a let.
ter implies trouble taken and time
spent and a personal touch, and once it
is dropped into the mail box it carries
perhaps across a continent or a nation
a vital thought and the warmth OF a
handclasp. Arc you owing any one ii
letter? Is there any one whom a let
ter from you would very much please?
Is there an absent boy to whom a let
ter 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 a letter is
not tomorrow, but today. Christmas
correspondence should not be postponed
until the Christmas week. because at
that time the mails are overburdened
and the resources of the postofice de-
partment are taxed to the, uttermost.-
