Is your Christmas gift list all
made out? Wait a minute-here' s
something you may have forgotten
How about giving one extra gift
this year? No, we can't tell you who
to give it to That's up to you
Maybe you will give it to your wife
or husband, or one of your children
or a complete stranger. You may
even end up giving it to yourself.
The gift is life!
Each year hundreds of persons
are killed by accidents during the
Christmas New Years holiday cele
bration Most of these deaths and
injuries are in traffic mishaps. The
National Safety Council has found
that the traffic death toll on Christ
mas is two or three times the an
nual daily average-the most dan
gerous single period of the year.
You may be one of the many
drivers and pedestrians who will
have it in his power to give gift
of life this Christmas. How?
Well if you refuse to take that
holiday drink before you get be
hind the Wheel-you may be Civ
ing life to someone.
If you don't try to pass that car
on the hill-life can be your gift,
If you slow down when you see
that pedestrian step hesitantly from
the curo-yOu may give the best
present of all
It is an ironic fact that the most
joyous season of the year is the
one most likely to bring traffic
tragedy. The reasons are simple,
but too often overlooked.
Family gatherings and other fes-
Invites of the year-end holiday
season bring about the peak travel
of the winter, and when more cars
are on the move, there is more
chance of an accident
Early darkness plus bad weather
add up to poor visibility. logged
windshields also make 1t difficult
to see and AVOID accloent situations.
The good fellowship of the season
stimulates more drinking, and too
often the celebrants clink glasses
with death.
Rain, snow and ice. when they are
present during the holiday, mean
slippery streets and highways And
thousands of drivers still fail to
adjust their speed to such adverse
conditions.
So get out that Christmas list
again and write down one more
gift-the life you may give if you
Drive r1dentlv and Satelv.

Christmas changed everything in
the world. 1t divided history into
before and after Christ II led
men out of the night into a new
and everlasting day The hands of
a Child-THE CHILD-reached out
from the manger and took away
everything but forgiveness and
peace and eternal salvation from
the lives of men.
The shepherds were the first to
know that. The glory had faded
from the sky, and the angels had
returned to heaven, but these men
could not return Immediately to
their life as it had been before
the angels came They had to 60
and see!
For many men and women in our
world, sad to say, Christmas is only
a swift light in the sky of their
dark lives, as momentary as the
sound of carol on winter night.
The Christmas tree Withers, the
gifts are put away, the songs of
Christmas end, and they return a
gain to the same old darkness of
their lives. They forget that they
can have Christmas in their hearts
always. They can join the shep- |
herds in their journey to the man
ger, to wonder and worship and |
believe.
Christmas is an eternal fact of
God, not a passing fad. It means
hat He came to live with us for
yer and that we can now be His
hildren, if we will but go and
ee and believe the miracle of His
firth. Our church welcomes you
} share with us the blessings of
hristinas through worship. ST.
