The Christmas `Spin-its I Blenheim NewsJI`ribune:- `Some time ago it was reported in a neigh- boring Kent County newspaper that - in that town a number of men were .- clubbing together to agree not to give `any Christmas presents. to each other. We would consider such action, if serious, an error of the greatest mag- nitude. Imagine a Christmas without any giving emblematic of that sea- son, and you are reminded .of what 1. the world would be without a Christ ; having been sent to it. Instead of curtailing the spiritof remembrance, wewould say both giver and recip- ient will be more _blest by" increases in Christmas giving.
