# suits and hats, One small boy tore 'at least, very likely more than one) thought, with the unworrying at- titude of children to matters be- yond their' understanding, that the more than 30 years. of Christ's 'life on earth was contained in Christmas and Easter. It is a rea- sonable conclusion to reach, for after a long, long build-up to Christmas we are so quickly done with it. -_ On Epiphany -- Twelfth Day -- and often before that, down comes the Christmas tree, away go the decorations, and back into its par- ticular shelf in our mind's . cup- board goes Christmas itself, to be kept out of harm's way until next year. Then there will be greet- ings of good will again, gifts, car- ols and worship at the manger where God reigns in the glory of His humility. Meanwhile we sometimes make a mistake of pushing Him into so high and remote a heaven that wé make a magician, a tyrant, even a monster of Him. Christmas wasn't the story of a darling baby looking charming in the humble surroundings of the stable. It was the story--the fact--of Almighty God made man, to serve man, to Jay down His life for him, and to redeem him. The Quest The above article, brought to me by. Mrs. George Kranz, fur- nishes food for thought, doesn't it? Many of us are too prone to make a big fuss during the short Christmas season and then forget all about the real reason for cel- ebrating Christmas during the rest of the year.

As I write this, (Tues- day afternoon) the sun is shining and water is lying in the potholes on the street in front of the office window. (Its nearly time for two or three men to come with a truck- load of goo to fill those potholes again), and this morning, in the mail I received a copy of Tobe's unique "Growing Flowers", which combines a catalogue of practic- ally everything anyone would want to grow, and a book of hun- dreds of philosophical observa- tions, each one spiced with irony, humour or sarcasm, plus a deep knowledge of human nature. It is the sort of thing one likes to read before dropping off to sleep, be- cause it clears the mind of worry- ing little problems and leaves a chuckle in their place. It is free for the asking and if anyone wants the address, I have it here. ~ Spring really IS coming, you know. January is almost half over, February is a short month and on St. Patrick's Day March is half gone.

Care A Continental? The expression '"'not worth a continental' is traced to the Re- volutionary War in the United States. The currency issued in large quantities to pay for the war quickly decreased in value until it became almost worthless.
