A RARE AND HONORED GUEST
THE CELEBRATION OF CHRIST'S BIRTH
Christmas spirit is a contagious thing that is hard to define. Some get the spirit early, others get it gradually, but sooner or later it affects everyone.
The town is looking more festive every day with trees lighted from the tops of buildings and music floating down the street and from the radio.
Store windows are dressed in holiday colors hinting of the worldly part of Christmas which is an important part of the celebration of the happiest time of the year, for the giving of gifts is the manifestation of brotherly love.
The spiritual part of the celebration is expressed in all our churches whose programs are varied enough to please everyone and in which each and every one should find time to participate and celebrate -- the birth of Christ.
