CHRISTMAS DAY
By Fl. W. Smith

We find ourselves approaching another
birthday Of Christ which is Christmas day
and we should consider ourselves very high
ly honored as we are yet among the living
and permitted to mingle and enjoy a fel-
lowship and celebrate in common sense with
relatives and friends and give many thanks
as we should. At all times keep in mind it
is a personal duty for all OF US as human
beings to realize how our actions shuld be
at all times and in the right way.
Let us pause and think of the many SOL
diers that nave given their lives and oh how
many disabled ones that are IN the hospitals
unable to get out and we should at all times
make it pleasant for them by visiting and
sending cards to remind them they are
not forgotten. They went through in order
that we might enjoy the good peace that we
are having and we hope that it will con
tinue for all time on this old ship OF earth.
Don't forget the soldiers who lost their
lives for the so-called democracy and those
who are still living to enjoy the same treat
ment as American citizens. but unfortun-
ately there are still some business places
that refuse flatly to serve those who en-
list in the U. s.. Army. Let us all pray
and hope that things will better them
selves and think of peace on earth and
good will toward all mankind.

4RISTMAS
PRAYER
By Ruth Taylor

Most Mighty and merciful Father
AS the bells of the world begin their
chimes this Christmas day, we thank Thee
for the great and manifold blessings Thou
has visited upon us in this past year, for
victories over Thine enemies, for the re-
lease from their suffering of the prose-
cuted.
In the trying days Of reconstruction and
reconversion which lie ahead, keep us
humble, we pray. Bow down our wills In
obedience to Thy holy law Of love for our
fellow men, no matter what their color,
class or creed.
Uplift us in spirit that we may wisely the
gifts Thou hast bestowed upon us, and
that we may bring Thy kingdom Of peace
and Justice for all men to fulfilment on
this earth.
Thine is the power and the glory. Grant
us the spirit to follow Thee in our daily
lives, down whatever path Thou may lead
us. This we ask in the name Of Him in
whose honor we keep Christmas.
Amen
