"Our Personalities and Pos
sibilities" was the subject Of Rev.
NJ. l.. Simmons sermon Sunday.
His texts were Gen. 1:26; / John
30 and Gen. 81, "And God form
ed man of the dust of the ground
and breathed into his nostrils the
breath of life and man became a
living soul" Rev. Simmons told
us that being images of God. man
is divine and being divine we share
several of His powers. Three of
them are the power of thought,
the ability to reason, the power
of communication and the power
of self transcendence-the power
to develop the talents within us.
We face the danger of thinking
either too little or too much of
ourselves. 1t was pointed out by
Rev. Simmons that God has given
all of us a talent and we should
develop ii.

eight reindeer, flying proudly

Santa and his bags In the great
red sleigh behind.
The children fell back in ter

reindeer or sleigh or whiskered

Santa looked and smiled. He
winked at Tom. Then he hid
away his smile and cried out
sternly:
Take your heat away from

The children rushed to obey.
Let the kings come forth!"
The children hastily pulled
the rocks from the mountain

Santa recognized Majesty among
