SIDE TALKS
The New Christmas.
BY RUTH cAHRo1.

\ letter friend has written me IN re-
gard to my suggestion that VIC make
this Christmas really Christmas In
stead Of just n grand present-and-tur-
key snd-ics-crearn-day; Az Christmas
when we cease the exchange OF lu1ur-
ious gifts among ourselves and give to
those who need. She Gays that she can
not bear to cut out giving gifts to the
family because there Is a married sis
ter and q father and mother to whom
her gifts have always meant much She
herself is working and has more spend
ing money than they.
That's the Right Kind Of Giving.
Bless Jour heart, that is just the
kind Of giving that really spells Christ
mas. Cut 1t out: Heavens no. There
isn't any reason that you should give
to those outsiders who lack. and not
give TO those you love the best. That
would certainly be leaning over back
wards toward a totally wrong concep-
ton OF Christmas.
What One Family Il Going to Do.
Let me describe what one family
know Is going to do and perhaps you
will understand better what l mean
by the new Christmas This family
consists Of several married brothers
and sisters. all comfortably we'll TO do.
Every year the brothers and sisters.
and brothers-in-lnw and sisters-in-iaw
have exchanged beautiful gifts. AS Is
inevitably the case. their expenditures
have gradually grown more lavish year
by year until they mounted up to a
truly appalling sum. And this year they
have called a halt They will cease TO
give to each other enirely. They will
