But that doll, made from spare
strips of bright cloth, probably was
more treasured than any modern
doll that can say Mama" go to

covered with shells and containing a

For goodies, no Christmas was

CHRISTMAS on the frontier, as
new bands of pioneers pushed
ever westward to carve an empire
out of virgin plains and wilder
nesses, was in marked contrast to
the present holiday.
There was more meaning then in
the words of The Book concerning
shepherds in a certain country
watching their focks by night. The
solitudes, the closeness of the stars,
the virginity of the new world and
its humble people made one feel
that time had stood still. Christmas
in those days somehow seemed
much closer to that first Christmas.
Those bleak plains could be the
one the Wise Men crossed, this the
Night and yon sleeping village, Beth
lehem. The faith of the trail break
ers was that of the Wise Men.
On Christmas Eve the pioneer
folks would gather in a crude little
church or schoolhouse where chill
dren recited their pieces and sang

farmers are using the lowly eve
green to anchor sand lands to pro-
tect the shifting soil from further

With exception of the prairie
lands, virtually every state in the

In the West, Colorado and Mon

Gifts, if any, generally were in
the form of utilitarian mittens, muf-

women there might be a piece of

enterprising friend had devoted her
spare time for months.
Throughout the holiday season a
candle burned in the attic window,
guiding late-faring travellers to shell

But withall these hardy folks had

tomorrow there may be nothing in
