But symbols in the practical world stand for the real thing.Make this Christmas different by changing the emphasis.Instead of \u201cWhat did you get for Christmas ?\u201d ask \u201cWhat did you give?\u201d And for \u201cDid you have a nice Christmas?\u201d say \u201cDid you give anyone else a happy Christmas?\u201d When you use the time-worn words A Merry Christmas imply and mean \u201cWhat can I do to make your Christmas merry?\u201d Apply these principles and Christmas will be spiritualized.For this happy season is fraught with changing to wards faith, hope and love.Towards things good, beautiful and true.That First Christmas Gift\u2014-Jesus\u2014has changed the lives of millions everywhere.With those' who are super-critical about Christmas I have little patience.Don\u2019t think that Christmas is just a custom.It goes deeper than that.And as it comes from the heart it will outlive all criticisms.But there are many complaints about commercialization.Say \u201cgood bye\u201d to all that as you endeavor to rediscover and apply idealism.That\u2019s the \u201cisim\u201d we need just now.And that spells Christ.Read again the Christmas story as if you never read it before and you will find your heart so strangely warmed that you must give.As long, then, as our hearts are sensitive and child-like, Christmas will survive.The children will see to that for it is their festival \u2014their day.So we need not unduly worry about its decay or abolition.Nevertheless, it would be inspiring to recapturç the mood of wonder and awe which surrounded the first Christmas.Wo need this antidote in this very secularistic age.Think oi the wonder in the heart of Joseph.God had given Joseph something very great and very beautiful to work for.We also have that Gift.It is ours to live for those who love us.I recall one of the most miserable Christmas dinners I ate with the obligato \u201cI have no one in the world ; nothing to live for.\u201d That widow had forgotten to live for Him.Not only do we want to be happy and merry on Christmas Day, but all through the days.Feverish activity is the only phrase that to me expresses the December rush.\u201cWhat a mad rush.What are they hurrying for?\u201d asked a selfish lady only to receive from a wise and generous-hearted friend : \u201cYes; they are hurrying to buy something for someone.\u201d Great spirit! But take time to prepare to go to your Bethlehem \u2014 the House of Broad\u2014the Church of God on Christmas morn and worship the New Born King.After that, let joy be unconfined.If people would only stop taking the temperature of the Church and rather think of all the good she is doing.Generously she gives her direction, Sacramental life, and j blessing to all things worthy, noble! and of good report.Let us gratefully j give her our loyalty, devotion and | consecrated service.Make no mistake about it, the: Church can never fall.Let us view | the présent situation, as The Master; did, with triumph in our hearts and 1 tears in our eyes.And\u2014who knows?i \u2014but the tlhouigb'tlees ones who are1 playing in the market-places will be ; influenced and changed.Our giving, unfortunately, has; not been ideal.Those who have ears bo hear have heard: \u201cShe gave me something, I must give her something in return.We just had to give something to the 'Boss\u2019.It will help me in my work.I could not give anything less than an article worth five dollars: he paid that for mine last year.\u201d \u201cDon\u2019t you see this?\u201d said a young knight as he proudly unwrapped a ring.\u201cThis will patch it up?\u201d was his motive.If these samples are a reflection of our spirit of giving then we have a long way to go till love gives and counts not.But we are on our way! \u201cMy greatest worry is,\u201d so a young husband told me, \u201chow I can manage to drop all the \u2018junk\u2019 I receive into my neighbor\u2019s ash can without my wife\u2019s knowing it.\u201d Surely that points to the moral of buying discriminatingly.In a word, useful gifts.And what a useful and precious Gift God gave on that wonderful night! Unique is the word, for Christ is neither ancient nor modern, not of the east or west.More than a Jew and yet not a Gentile.An example to the strongest man yet an inspiration to the frailest woman.What a marvellous Gift! Immeasurable! Infinite.The theme of the Gift required an angelic chorus that first Christmas night.Try to express or describe It now and you cannot.Unspeakable is the only word.If .you can afford it, of course, give useful gifts which are a part of yourself.If you cannot, you can always give yourself to life when others refuse themselves to life.Life, after all, is a series of gifts.Name them and you\u2019ll be surprised.And don\u2019t forget to include \u201cthe means of grace and bhei hope of glory.\u201d Send, then, your gifts from heart to heart bearing a message of love \u201cIn remembrance of Him.\u201d May I present to you The Unspeakable Gift\u2014the Babe of Bethlehem?Catch His Spirit\u2014the true Christmas Spirit\u2014and keep Him in your heart as your Guest, living under His control, till the end of the day.\t., , A giving Christmas is my ideal for you, my dear friends.Then we can truthfully say: \u201cA Merry Christmas\u201d and with Tiny Tim repeat : \u201cGod bless us everyone!\u201d ELECTION LIST SANCTIONED AT COWANSVILLE Town 'Council Homologates Electoral Sheets at Final Session for 1938\u2014Ratifies Request for Licence Transfer.Cowansville, Dec.24.\u2014The municipal electoral list was presented for homologation at the last meeting of the Town Council for the year 1938 held on December 20, under the chairmanship of S.Perron, M.D.The list had been posted according to law and after certain amendments to the valuation roll and the inserting of the names of new property owners, the list was homologated.The Council accepted the request for license transfer from Jules Rousseau, milkman, to Albert Gilles, also the transfer of the hardware business of Eugene A.Boisvert, South street, to Cowansville Hardware Company, Limited, with Messrs.Carl and Sarto Codere, formerly of Sherbrooke, in charge.Ten dollars was voted to the Women\u2019s Institute for their benevolent work.The meeting then adjourned until January.w&PÀw P TsZS General Notes Skating hours for school children at the Victoria rink are now from 3.30 to 5.30.Mr.Gordon Deschamps is in charge.Miss Carrie Ward, of Lachine, is spending the holidays with her parents, Mr.and Mrs.J.Ward.Mr.William Fowler was an overnight guest of his brother, Mr.S.L.Fowler, at Lennoxville.Mr.and Mrs.C.Stevens and Miss Muriel Chilton were tea guests of Mr.and Mrs.W.B.McMorine.Rev.and Mrs.Buchanan were tea guests at the home of Mr.and Mrs.R.Kerr.At this season of the year we wish all our friends and customers a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year >4 0 J.A.PELLETIER & SON 84 Wellington St.North.Cousons; duet, Mrs.Ormonde Brown and Mr.Grayson Cousens; tableau, Reta Cousens and Maurice Russell: dialogue, Mr.Bernard Paige, Mr.and Mrs.Ormonde Brown, Mr.and Mrs.Eric Stambridge, Mrs.Bockus, Mr.William Russell, Mr.William Badger, Mr.Richard Bryant and Miss Maryian Cousens: two guitar selections bv Mr.Bernard Paige; closing song, the School.Rev.Mr.Hollitt, of Knowlton, acted as chairman during the entertainment and Mrs.Ormonde Brown accompanied the singers at the organ.At the close of the programme, Rev.Mitchell and Rev.Rama spoke a few words congratulating those taking part.The audience then joined in singing \u201cPraise Cod From Whom All Blessings Flow,\u201d with Rev.Rollit at the organ.General Notes.Mr.and Mrs.Grayson Cousens and Mrs.Eva Bleau were guests of Mr.and Mrs.William Smith, North Troy, and were also calling on relatives in Newport.Mr.and Mrs.Sheldon Mizerter, of Magog, were recent guests of Mr.and Mrs.Grayson Cousens.Messrs.George and Frank Paige, Kenneth, Leslie and Harry, Miss Bertie Paige and Mr.and Mrs.Walter Paige attended a special religious gathering at Magog.Air.Joseph Beaudry, of Foster, is cutting logs on the old Mason place.Miss Eileen Brown, of Knowlton High School, is home for the holiday.After two weeks of hard work, Mr.Frank Consens, assisted by Mr.Ormonde Brown and Mr.Forest Cousens, has succeeded in getting a water supply system in his barn.The young people decorated the Glen Church last week.Air.and Airs.Clifton Brown have returned home, after spending a week at the home of Air.and Airs.Giemi Brown, Notre Dame de Grace.Air.and Mrs.Glendon Frizzle, of Brome, were guests of Air.and Mrs.Frank Cousens.Airs.W.R.Davis and son.Clarence, were at \u201cBonnieburne.\u201d Bullard and Henry Bennett were guests at the home of Mr.Joseph j Wright.I Miss Mabel Wright was a guest of ' Alias Ruth Walker.!
