H There's magic In the very nam,
 of Christmas," as Dickens has said IT
 his Christmas Carol and, so. 1t trul,
 seems. The magic of unselfishnesi
 and love is abroad, everywhere peo
 pie are planning happiness for soms | one else, taking care that ever,
 needy peraon and little child receive
 their share of Christmas cheer. Al the organizations, civic and social, in
 the true spirit of Christmas, are glv- ling all and everywhere they can The churches are more than ever ac-
 tive, with their messages, music, their
 entertainments for tho children, and their gifts. The cheer of Christmas
 will be carried to the war veterans
 the hospital. the homes and to each
 other, everywhere.
 As Christmas Eve draws near all
 who can go home 10 spend the day,
 itself, around the home hearth and,
 If they cannot go, be sure their hearts
 arc there. The candles will be light ed In the windows on Christmas eve
 to guide the spirit of the Christ Child
 as He revisits the earth and enters
 the hearts of men. The Christmas
 trees. brave in trimmings and gifts,
 stockings hung. ..Gs will be lighted and the children'a stockings hung. f4
 The municipal Christmas tree, so rich in traditional meaning, stands
 green and glitterinE in the snow, a silent and sympolic witness of all the
 seasons goodwill, while at its base
 group of singers will sing the
 Christmas carols. .
