Christmas Messages
0Continued from Page Four)

(Continued from Page Four) Wise Men" The Sunday School teacher teaches the class that" a little Child was lain in a manager because there was no room in the inn" From the pulpit comes the glad tidings: For God so loved the world that He gave His only be- gotten Son that whosoever believ- eth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life" The truth. Gods word abideth forever.
 Secondly, it will continue be- cause of the great concern of God the Father for mankind. We read, "He saw there was no man and wondered there was no intercessoT. .' Jesus is the expression of a Fathers concern for a fallen world. Christ mas will continue for Gods great redemption plan must be completed.
 Jesus shall reign where'er the sun
 Doth his successive journey run;
 His Kingdom stretch from shore
 to shore,
 Till suns shall rise and set no

more

Then Christmas will remain be- cause there will always be a yearn- ing in the heart of man for God. Can we not again hear at this Christmastime the words of Philip in the supper room Lord show us the Father and 1t sufficeth us" If we could also possibly hear the answer Jesus gave him, "He tthat hath seen Me hath seen the Father. '' IL is true the deep meaning of the Christmas message has not yet been revealed to all but, "as many as re- ceive Him to them gave He power to become the sons of God even to them that believe in His name"
 So the Christmas message, the Christmas song, the Christmas joy will continue and some day the glor- ious truth will be revealed to all, in all its fullness and the voice of a multitude will re-echo the glad tidings Blessing and honor and glory and power be unto Him that sitteth upon the throne and unto the Lamb forever and ever"
 To all We wish a Merry Christ mas and in the forthcoming New Year shall pray for Peace on earth and Good Will among men"

good than anything the &c o r
could do.
They had threesones-the two.

headache, or something important
to DO, and sent them off together.

ing upon her, but she decided that
was wishful thinking. Dennis must
understand. He had said that he
wanted to share the responsibility
that Andrea was, that although he
had no right
Beth thought he had that right,
that Dennis still loved Andrea.
She could put her own selfish de-
sire for his company away from
her as long as he was helping the
girl who needed him more than
she.
Dennis was very good for An
crea. Beth had to admit it. Her
moroSe moods were dispelled by
him. Some of her old sparkle and
natural sweetness came back after
the time she saw him.
They never discussed him with
each other.
What Dennis did or said to make
Andrea happier Beth could II 0
guess, and she never asked. -
When, at last, they did speak of
Inn, Beth was too angry and up
set to think of other things.
1t was in March, and it was dur
ing one of Andreas more unhappy
weeks. Her figure was beginning
to change and she was filled with
l1npotent fury against everything.
1t broke loose VIXEN Beth said she'd
had letter from Vernon.
He was coming east on company
business and would be in Washing

obviously. Lots of new spring
things have come into the shop.
Not for me, though. There'll be
nothing for me for years and years
unless I do something about it.
There won't even be a job"
Il thought you promised not to
worry about that" Beth answered
absently, thinking that it would be
nice to get a spring outfit. She
hadn't bought anything new since
the dress she'd got herself the
night of her first date with Dennis.
It was getting so that now she was
cutting down on her lunches, saw
ing every dime for what was
ahead. The dimes didn't mount up
&c much.
I'm not going to- Andrea said
placidly. 1--WE decided that worry
ing isn't going to be good for the
baby. Besides, it's driving me
nuts
Beth laughed. That's fine Ian
guage for a mother-to-be. Do you
believe in prenatal influence?"

CHAPTER THIRTY-sEvEN

Andrea began to look ill. The
| doctor said it was nothing to wor-
ry about, nothing unusual n d,
tight-lipped, Andrea reported it all
to Beth. If only I don't look like a
bag, I don't Nina" she said. I'm
going to diet and keep my weight
down. They won't want me at the
shop unless look smart, and this
is no time for me to look for an
office job.
Il wish you didn't have to
work" Beth said sadly. But we
can't live on my salary, and l
don't dare touch our nestegg. Have
you heard anything yet about
Jim's insurance?'
Il ought to hear this week"
Jlm's ca su ty insurance
amounted to $4,000, but there was
no way of finding out if or when
it would be paid Washington in
surance was in such state that
Andrea said it couldn't have been
any worse if she'd been running
it, which was quite true. It took
weeks to try to discover if he had
made his policy out to her.
He'd have to-" she said reason
s:ply to Beth. He'd want to, any
way, but even if he didn't he d
have to make It out to somebody
and who else?';
We'll get it some day, but only
the lord knows if We'll get it be-
fore the baby is born so Wen

long as you can, and I''ll be think
Ing OF it every minute
Thinking isn't going to do any
good. Even if you got an idea, we'd
still not have any money to do
anything with. On Beth, it's awful
to be poor. Why, oh why, was
such a little fool! Sometimes 1
think it was idiotic to marry Jim.
# only I'd waited In few months

look ugly"
''Phooey!" Beth said inelegant-
~. Every week you'll be more
ard more proud and excited" And
every week, as she knew, she 1
BE more and more worried.
That was in January. and An
ol ca had her moments that could
b. called happy, almost gay. But
t ebrury was different. Her sick
ress was over, but she began to
grow morose, silent, and often kept
whole evenings to her room.
Once she went out on a date
with Eunice and her husband, but
she came home saying she wasn't
going to do that any more. It
wasn't any fun to see a o h e r
young wife and her husband to-
gether
Beth was glad that Harry Cole
icok to dropping in to see them
occasionally, and she encouraged
Andrea to join him at the Blakes
Tor bridge.
From these rare excursions An
drea came home in bad mood.
7 never could live as they do,
she told Beth once. They're nice,
out middle-class I'd hate being
cooped up in three-room apart
rnent ali my 1ife.''
1t was on the tip of Beth's
tongue to tell Andrea she'd be the
luckiest girl alive if she had three
rooms she could call her own for
the next six months, but when she
wrote her weekly letter to Vernon,
and tried to say warm, encourag-
ing things to him, she found she
couldn't. Vernon was there if she
wanted him, or needed him. But
she didn't need him yet, although
the certainty was growing on her
that one day she would.
For no reason that she could
analyze, when she thought of Yer
non, she thought of Dennis.
Dennis was frequently in Wash

voice on the telephone, she felt re-
