Christmas isn't just today. Christmas is
tomorrow, the day after tomorrow and all
the days after that you can count-if you
make it that way.
For every day there are scores and hun
dreds and thousands of people who need the
special something that makes Christmas what
it is.
You may never get to know these people.
Or you may meet them turning a corner
You may read about them in a newspaper
Or you may discover that they work right
in your Office or even live with you in your

Don't Miss the True Gift OF Christmas

is the unawareness of many persons that it
was being unfolded only few steps from their
doors.
But before feel sorry for these people
for what they missed, it might be just well to
take more contemporary look: at some present
day folk who occasionally act as though they,
too did not knoY it was Christmas.
They treat the Feast of the Nativity not as
the birthday of Christ but as just another holi-
day, one to be marked with tinsel and glitter
that have nothing to do with the meaning of
Christmas Day Perhaps it may be said that
they cannot see Christmas for the Christmas
trees.
In their preoccupation with the more com
mercialized aspects of the day, with the ex-
change of presents and with party-goings they
overlook its religious significance.
In doing so they are missing great deal

that Iowly stable at Bethlehem, and it is made
complete only by going there in spirit and

Clement Clarke Moore, who in 1892 wrote

Join In Singing Carols at Home

Nothing expresses the joy and simplicity
of the Christmas season more informally-and
happily =. than singing of the Christmas
carols
Yet gratifying as it is to hear carols sung
by others = by choirs, by choruses and by
bands of wandering carol singers-there is
nothing quite like singing the carols your
self, and having your family and friends join
in.
There are countless carols, from many
lands and climes. Most of them were not
written for trained singers, but for the hum
blest voices. That is why none should hesi-
tate feel bashful, or too sophisticated, to join
in singing Christmas carols this year.
One of the most beautiful and simplest of
all is silent Night" The magic reverence
of this carol is realized most fully when you
sing it yourself Most of us do not even need
music the melody is so familiar.
In lively and merry contrast is Deck the
Halls with Boughs of Holly" That is familiar,
too But until you have joined in singing it
yourself the full measure of its spirit remains
unrealized
Many other carols will come to mind. 20
