WISCONh \ DAY DECEMBER 23. 1921 Omt Greetings In the Meaning of Christmas | IN THE spirit of the occasion and with due appreciation of all it implies, we extend Christmas greetings to the readers of this publication. Christ mas has a meaning possessed by no other holiday throughout the world. America has its national ami special days, other countries have theirs; Christmas is the only one alike in spirit and celebrated in all Chris* tian lands. So pure is its principle that it commands respect and admiration among people who worship their Creator in different ways from ours. Christmas typifies all that is best in mankind. It is the culmination of the human mind throughout the ages dwelling upon the wonders and mysteries of existence, turning to a reverence for God and His representa tive on earth. It expresses the ascendency of spirit, the realization of men of their interdependency and their duty to one another; and so it is marked by the bestowal of gifts and other sentiments of benevolence and well wishing. The makers of newspapers, concerned as they are with the doings, manifestations and thoughts of their respective communities and the world at large, and recording them in their more important aspects for the information, mayhap the education of readers, are brought into an intimate of the spirit and mean ing of Christmas. Would that we could express to you all the good that we see in the hearts of men and the increased brilliancy behind a few shadows of the light which has upheld the world for so many centuries. In the happy auguries we see for the future, there is every reason to be merry. Our Yuletide thoughts go out to the people of this com munity and our thanks are due the patrons and kind friends who have given u$ practical support or extended encouragement during the year. May this be the best Christmas you have ever spent, is our wish to all.
