Yule Seal Idea
Was From Denmark

This year millions Of Ameri-
cans have received a letter from
their local chapter of the Ma
tional tuberculosis association
containing Christmas seals, the
seasonal reminder Of the never
ending fight to stamp out the
disease.
The idea was conceived by a
Danish postal clerk. He thought
Of the idea in 1903 while mailing
Christmas packages and letters.
The clerk was Einar Holboell.
He mentioned it to his fellow
workers and they decided ii
would be a great help in defray-
ing the cost of fighting tuber-
culosiS. The idea reached King
Christian, who approved and the
image of Queen Louise was pac-
ed on the first seals in 1904.
Jacob Riis, Danish-born Amer
lean, heard about the idea and
sold it to the American public
in 1907 through a magazine arti-
Gle. A Red Cross worker, Miss
Emily Bissell, started the first
American sales that year.

Birth OF The SavicF
Was Greatest Event
In Worlds nisEorv

Pleasant as it is to dream of
white Christmas" and its carols
and gifts, feasting and merry
making, the sparkling eyes of
children delighting in Santa
Claus and the wonderful Christ
mas trees, these things never can
symbolic the tremendous signi-
ficance of the day.
The birth of the Saviour was
the greatest event in the history
of the world. In spite of all the
back-sliding, Christian peoples
have pressed forward steadily.
However vicious and corrupt,
the world today is far better
than the world of pagan times;
familiarity with the cross and
crucifixion has abolished legal
tortureS and much cruelty-and
if given a chance, might shame
us into banishing the curse of
internationals Viciousness for the
sake of Him who became the
Saviour of Mankind.

Most Beloved Carol
Is ''Silens Nighi''

The most beloved carol Of the
many that are sung in all parts
of the world is Silent Night
that simple and tender German
song.
Its origin was unknown for
many years. Recent research,
however, disclosed that it was
written by Joseph Mohr, an as
sistant priest in Oberndorf in
composed by a schoolmaster,
Franz Gruber
The poet and the composer
were part of the choir that sang
the carol for the first time on
Christmas Eve in the Oberndorl
church in 1918.
The night it was sung the
small church's organ was out of
order and the choir sang to the
accompaniment of a guitar.

Joseph Proved His
Love For Mary
Mother OF Jesus

Joseph, the bible relates, had
to prove his faith in and love
for Mary before they were mar
ried. 1t is one of the great love
stories of all times.
When Joseph thought Of Mary,
he forgot the difference in their
ages: she was the girl he had
waited for, his beloved. They
were espoused--or, as we would
say, engaged-which was almost
as official as being married His
heart scared on wings of the APP
preaching wedding day, and
What Mary insisted had come
to pass, simply could not be!
Joseph wanted desperately to
believe Mary, but such things
just didn't happen, and if they
did, they happened to somebody
else.
Much as he loved Mary,

fearing man and while he could
not even think of making her a
public example, he had just
about make up his mind to put
her away privately. That is, he
thought he had made up his
mind. In his heart, he knew he
couldn't; what would become of
her Of her child
Then one night, after he had
exhausted himself with tortured
thinking, he fell asleep and the
angel of the Lord appeared to
him in a dream: saying
Joseph, thou son Of David.

And when Joseph awOke, he
did as the angel had hidden
him, and took Mary as his law
full and cherished wife.
Fear not" the angel spoke
unto Joseph.
Fear not" the angel had de-
clared unto Mary.

unto the shepherds of Bethle-
hem.
