TN THIS present day of separated families of lonely
parents whose sons and daughters are away from
home. of young men and women who will be far from
their own people at the holiday season. the idea of
"neighborly" Christmas is a most appealing one.
Nearly all of us will have members of our families
away from home this Christmas - but those of us
who are left at home and who are perhaps feeling
cheerless because our husbands sons or daughters
are away can find at least share of Christmas happi
ness by keeping our equally lonely neighbors and
servcemen from having dreary and solitary holiday.
The Colonists Started II
SUCH neighborliness has always been an appealing
and interesting part of the American tradition.
Recently one of my editors told of custom begun
in this country by the early coonists. On special
occasions the white settlers used to invite to dinner
one fellow townsman and representative of the
friendly Indian tribes thus expressing their desire
to live in peace with one another.
Including neighbors in our family circle is a
great hearted gesture. This Christmas it be-
comes a doubly generous impulse.
The idea should 20 little further than merely in
vtng people to come to dinner sit at table, be given
Christmas meal mice as this alone would be). The
mother or wife who plans such celebration OF
Christmas should invite her guests ahead OF time so
they will have Christmas day to look forward to.
The Guests Can Help
she might ask them to 60 with her to choose the
tree She might get them to help in making the orna-
ments and tying up gifts to hang on the branches
Perhaps the neighbor has some favorite Christmas
dish She might be invited to contribute it as her
part in the dinner Or if she has any traditional way
Of celebrating the day. she should be provided with
the means of continuing it. All these things will help
to make it personal and intimate Christmas tor an
invited neghbor, and true expression OF the shar-
ing which is so important part OF Christmas spirit

Boosts Stock Prices
To Another Peak
BY VICTOR EUBANK.
Associated Press financial Writer.


NEW YORK, March 13.-Invest-
ment buying power continued to
swing stocks upward today in one
of the liveliest sessions of the past
several months and the market. on
balance, touched another peak since
last July.
AS in the past week or so idle
funds were spurred to re-employ-
ment by generally cheering earn
ings prospects, revival of domestic
political optimism and the Allied
progress in the war. Issues with a
peace rating were anon gthe best
performers.
Pivotals and blue chips were the
front-liners. Low-priced stocks.
particularly Packard Motors, turned
over in blocks of 1000 to $4,000
shares without much change. Rails,
motors, steels and specialties were
prominent on the sprint.
Forward tendencies prevailed at
the start. Profit cashing on the
lengthy rally then appeared but this
was well absorbed in most instances.
Near-clos1ng gains ranged from
fractions to point or more. Trans
fers were around 100000 shares.
Highs for the year or longer were
posted for Santa Fe, Southern Pa
cific, Atlantic Coast Line, Amer
lean Locomotive, Chrysler, General
Motors, Schenley, Distillers Corp.

your brothers don't get time off
