Hot only In coatly gifts or rlcU rare flood lies Christmas Joy or blessing. It Ilea—po on* caa tell another wbere It lies. Tbe flnding must be for one'a xelf alone. I can only say to all little cbUdren. to all grownap cblldreu, to all who are lookiuM; back u» well aa to those who are looking forward, to them 1 can say with Tiny Tim. "God bless you each this happy CbriBtmas time." and if you would bc very sure to get its meaning best make a real Christmas for somebody «£ who might not hare It but for JA^ you.—Kate Langley Bosber. ,tck
Christmas In
The Farmhouse
Wben as n child you read stories of Christmas celebrations where the bouses were decorated with holly and mistletoe and the people bad sucb jolly times putting them up, didn't you look around your own bouse and wonder bow that would look If trimmed with those same greens? And didn't you long to smell their spicy fragrance and to have a hand in putting them up where you tliought they would look the best? And didn't you long to feel that peculiar Christmas spirit that Is in the very iiir In cities and villages for more than a week before Chrismas day Itself? .Vnd then did you Just settle back !iiid say to yoni-self: "Woll. It's uo une.
"As long as 1 live on a farm Christ mas must be Just the same as It al¬ ways has been—an e.vchango of gifts and afterward an unusually big din ner?"
I want to tell you that you are mis taken—that you can have Just those very same things, even to bringing In the old time Yule log, If you aro so fortunate as to have an open fireplace in the farmhouse.
City people pay from Z'l conts to $1 for a small house (Mirlstnias tree, .-ind every one who can nflford It buys n tree every year for his children How often do farmers' children h.'ive trees? And why not? lieeause the parents say, "We haven't gifts enough to make a pretty treo." Many people never put a gift on—simply mako It a tree of beauty for the fhlldren. Strings of popcorn, wishbones and canes gllde<l. gold star.s—iinything bright and shiny hung on a tree delights n child—n hag of popcorn with a few candles In It tastes five times ns good If It hns only once hung on a tree. Even if the gift mnst be underwear, shoes ,nnd things actually needed to wear, have them come ns surprises and In as "Chrlst- masy" looking packages as possible It is well to keep the Christmas spirit in the home. ' \
It seems a pity for us country people, surrounded by these benutlfni things deemed luxuries by our city friends, to mnke no use whatever of them and to let our lives hecome so common- plnce. riirlstmas Is not solely a dny for gift giving and receiving and eat¬ ing. It Is a day for doing everything In your power to add to the joy of the children—a day to remember the feeble nnd lonely old people—a day to think of the strangers and the poor. If yon haven't money to spend for gifts for them you can give some of yourself nnd of your own home Christmas cheer. There* :iro liomes that it Is nn inspiration to enter, because of the Christmas spirit lh -y breathe forth. I tmst the fnrni homes will not be lack¬ ing lli Christmas benuty or Christmns cheeiv-thnt nil of them will truly "keep Christmns." — Bertha G. Mnrk ham in Country Gentleman.
Wheu the dawn creeps up from the darkly slumbering ocenn Christmas morn nnd speeds brightly nround the world, circling It with n gold en girdle of light, myriads of bells In many lands awake and from steeple lo steeple -_ring out the'glad tidings that "the Messiah is king."— Eloise Boorback In Crafts¬ man.
A Happy Tree.
"Oh, look at me!"
Bang the Christmas tree—
A Jolly young evergreen—
"I'm dressed up here
For a show, that'a clear. And I'm anxious to be seen.
To grow In a wood
Is very good— Of air you'v^p a trifle more—
But I declare
It cannot compare To a block on the parlor floor!
Tou may stand In the cold
Till a century old. Not a blossom to speak of com«a.
But bere In an hour
I'm all In flower With niltt«ns and dolls and druma
I know so well—
And daren't to tell- So much that I'm like to burst:
Tliere's a mystery hung
Or a secret swung On each branch from last to flrst.
How rd love to shout
All my feel Ings out! But I daren't even cough;
And just the half
Of a great big laugh Would shitke all my candles off.
So I have to hide
All th^ fun Inside Till I'm full as I can be.
Whatever folks siy,
I'm king of the day!" Bang th* jolly Christmas tre«.
