long, there would be no wars.
We know that Christmas is a time of
faith. It is a time when lost strength and
courage may be renewed in the quiet still-
ness of a church, in the somber darkness of
a solitary ropm, even in the hustle and bus-
tle of the crowd.
Hope springs eternally from the Christ-
mas message ahd in the great example of
the life and death of Christ, there is for all
men the promise of a greater and a better
tomorrow.
There is no more significant time for
all of us to count our blessings and, at
Christmas, they seem to be more abundant
than ever.

Have you ever wondered exactly ivhat •
someone means wflen they express the wish j
that uthe spirit of Christmas reach into,
every heart”?
One thing is for Sure. The spirit of
Christmas cannot be summed up iq a single
word. It encompasses joy, peace, faith, hope,
and gratitude as a mere beginning. ,
- ( hrisfians, of course, rejoice in the true
meaning of Christmas. It is the birthday of
the Saviour-an anniversary of the day on j
which the Christ Child appeared on earth
to show mankind the route to eternal sal- ;
We know that Christmas is, essentially,
a time of peace. The coming of Christmas
has never put an end to a major war or
even a minor skirmish, but almost invari-
ably it does cause men to pause, to think
and, more often than not, to pray for peace. [
If the spirit of Christmas abounded all year '
Mrs. Willie B. Baaimm,
Jr. was dismissed last Fri-
day from Memorial where she
was a medical potteat for
