you and to me Does Us significance revolve around a decorated tree bent low under the weight of presents wreaths of holly mistletoe or is it to be found in a star a manger the Ureal Gift to the world the Christ Child During the almost years years It is a joyous season a since shepherds knelt at the stable in their act of humble adoration this great festival of the Christina church ac quired and accepted many practices Have we lost our true perspective Do we place the emphasis on the wrong part of Christmas None of us would like to see this season divested of its lovely family traditions its generous giving and its happy memories Rather what we would prefer is a more proper blending of the two parts The emphasis be gins on Christmas as a holy day the birthday of the Babe of Bethlehem and not on Christmas as a holiday the celebration of I Santas visit How many of the parents who troubled to take their children to visit Santa also bothered to take them to see a presentation of the Nativity play at their Sun day school concert How many children will have the beautiful story from St Luke chapter as well as The Night Before Christmas read to them season of good tidings of great joy Let us not forget now that we have grown to adulthood to keep our family traditions a sacred part of Christmas As our children enter changing scene of daily living let us give them the security and love of happy family living The merriest of to you and your families May joy and happiness and an awareness of the One whose birthday we celebrate be present in your homes J The Newmarket branch

Christmas story Is not an outdated fable To parents falls the task of making the phrase on earth peace goodwill toward men meaningful and not just an empty grouping of words It is the things we learn
