DAY OF DAYS FOR KIDDIES
Christmas Outranks All Other Holi.
days for the Happiness and Mer-
rymaking of the Youngsters.

Above all other holidays, Christmas
is childrcnS day. If possible, they
should be made happy on that day.
But they should not be permitted to be
scliiShly so.
In times past there has been a tend
ency on the part of many of us to give
too many gifts, and too expensive ones,
to our children. We have been waste
full. We should not love our children
lcss-indccd we would show greater
lovely being careful what we give
them. Too many toys incline children
to be both waStcful and destructive.
When the youngsters are left to in
vent some of their playthings, their
imaginationS are developed, and they
become more capable Of doing things
for themselves and taking care OF
themselves
This Christmas would be Il good time
to begin teaching children umsclhsh-
ness and the joy Of giving. Many Il
poor mother is struggling to provide
food and shelter for her children and
has nothing to give them from Santa
Claus. The children of such mothers
arc going TO have wide, wiSiful, tear
stained eyes. They are going to crave
the joys OF a Christmas day that may
not be theirs.
While our fathers, brothers and sons
arc at the front, rislIing health and
life for us, for our country, for good
in the world, let us not forget those
children who lack fathers care and
protection. Tile good fellows are do
ing much. But they need our help
both in giving and in seeking out the
needy. They need our aid in distribute
ing as wcll rs providing.
Let us not forget the spirit for
which Christmas stands. It is 70 give
freely, to do service to mankind. Let
us give love. Let us give sympathetic
understanding. Let us give ourselves.
lie lives most who lives for others.
And he who shall have made q child
happy on Christmas morning will have
done a service in his name.

CHRISTMAS AND THE SPIRIT
Necessary to Manifest UnseIfshnesa
and the Love Christ Brought
to the World.

Two artists were asked to make q
copy of Il famous painting. The one
made mathematical calculations, and
produced technically correct copy.
The other studied the painting, entered
into the spirit Of the artist, and pro-
dnced not merely an imitation, but a
picture which glOwcd with warmth
and life. We are not, as Christians,
simply to copy Christ, but rather to
become possessed Of his spirit and so
reproduce his life In our lives. At
this Christmas season let us aim to
become possessed Of the spirit Of
Christ, and SO reproduce his life.
In "Littlc Women" there is a story
told by Louisa Alcott out Of the ex-
pericnce of her own early days. The
four children who are her hcroines,
knowing of a neghbor in need, go in
little procession and carry her their
breakfast. Another incident may be
recalled. Ii may not have been pre-
ciScly ChriStmaStidc, but it was win
ter. and the weather was bitterly cold.
The stock OF wood was low, and night
had fallen, when there came a knock
a. ti' h'pi. ~ SIllNtIIIlS tllllu StOOu
there, saying that her mother had no
wood, that the baby was sick and the
father gone OH q spree. She begged
for q little wood. "DivGc our stock
with her." said Mr.. Alcott, "and we
will trust in Providence. The weather
VIII moderate, or wood viii come" No
wonder that the children trained in
the Alcott household grew up heed
less of privation and generous to those
whose need was great. This is tho
true Christmas spirit. IF our Christ
mastide Is peryaded by real unsel6sh-
ness, we shall manifest to every ono
the love that Christ brought to the
world.

Kissing Custom So Old No One
Knows When 1t Started.
Branches With Greatest Number OF
Berries Favored, as Kiss Must
Be Given for Each Berry
Plucked.

| According to Scandinavian mythol.
ogy, Loki, the god Of evil, was the
sworn enemy of Baldur, the god of
light, and tried by every means in
; his power to kill him, but failed be.
cause he was invulncrable to every.
thing that came from the earth, air,
fire or water.
Loki at last conceived the idea that
the mistlctoc, springing from neither,
would serve his purpose and, having
an arrow made from the wood he
helped Hodi, the blind god of dark
ness, TO aim 1t, and Badur fell dead
shot through the heart
All the gods ana goddcsscs prayed
for his restoration to life, and when
the prayer was granted it was de-
creed that the miStlctoc should never
more have power To do harm unless it
touched the earth, and tho goddess OF
love was appointed to guard it.
Some legends claim that The god
dcsS kissed all who passed under the
plant as token that 1t was no longer
a weapon of death, but Il symbol Of
love, while others assert that she OK
tractcd Il kiss from each as a propitia-
ton, or the bough should be allowed to
work harm.
Another reason for the kissing priv.
fege conferred by the plant is said to
he that lovely maiden preferred
death to the kisses Of an amorous old
monk who pursued her, and her
prayers for dcliverance were answer
cd by Transforming her into q mistlc.
toe branch and placing her in tree.
Kiss For Each Berry.
The custom Of "kiSSing beneath the
miStlctoc' is so old that no one knows
when it originated; but when young
people are found selecting the branches
that have the berries on, it is fair to
suppose that they know IL kiss must
be giv"n for each bcrry pluckcd ana
that the ceremony is mover complete
Unit! every berry IS off the branch.
There was once 4 common, though

from true that the Druds, who held
the oak rs absolutely sacred because
they believed it to represent the One
Supreme God, deemed the mStlcioc

carefully guarded it until the sixth day
after .hc FIRST now mnon or onci,

When this time arrived, priests
