RALPH CURTIS JONES. q^ygy l ''* Father, we are grate -4™*A&s\ v <»> to ,Ik on this Vffl4f£g^\ Christmas day for all <Kjrj{SfH_jS^ the good things in life. fifeP thankful for the lowly ".jJH^CTBr hirth in Bethlehem, for all of which we com memorate this day. May all Christen dom unite in a mighty force to stop this ungodly European conflict, and say us the heavenly host sang, "Peace on earth, good will toward men," for we are sad indeed, at the thought of thy children who today are killing each other in the terrible war that Is being waged. In pity forgive them. Oh, Heavenly Father, bring them and their rulers to a full realization of the sinfulness of war—that those who have caused it may cry to thee.for peace. May they get a glimpse of the cross in its full meaning, and profit by the sacrifice made by thy Son for the world's redemption. Our Father, may the world become j Christianized from all other religions and philosophies, not merely in name, hut in the spirit of true Christian brotherhood. Oh Lord, let us all who fail to appreciate this great gift which thou gayest to the world be so con science-stricken that they will at once cease from their ingratitude, and ir reverence and depart from the error of their ways. May they become ad vocates of the Loving Master, who, as the perfect man, said to all mankind, "Except ye be converted and become as little children, we shall not enter the kingdom of heaven." " Dear Father, we rejoice with thee for the hearts that Christinas will make glad, for the little children to whom Christmas brings so much joy. Also we pray thee for those bereft of loved ones on Christmas day to whom this season brings painful remem brance. Console all that mourn the loss of loved ones. Comfort us, O Lord, with a heavenly vision and pre pare us to meet them in the holy • ity. Give grace to the dying, cheer to the sick and lonely, encourage the unfortunate and disheartened. Take all bitterness and hatred from our hearts and plant within us a true brotherhood. Give food to the nun gry and raiment to the poorly clad. Help us all to find thee as our Brother and Friend, our Comforter and Sa vior, and the giver of life everlasting. SVe ask it all in thy holy name.

Never leave the children alone with lighted candles. Remove the curtains when candles are used in windows. Use asbestos fiber instead of cotton to represent snow. Use metallic tinsel and not paper on your trees. Fasten your tree securely, so it will not tip over. Remove the tree from the house when the needles be come dry. A CHRISTMAS CAROL In the stillness of tlie midnight, In the silence of the Star, In the slumber of the white lambs, On the hillsides, near and far. Came the Christ Child to his mother; To the humble oxen's stall: He. the Babe of Paradise, sweet; Lord of Christmas, King- of all. Hush, let not a. word be spoken Of his sacrifice for men, Stooping from his world of glory, To be woman-born; a pen Of sweet straw to be his cradle, He is ours, just ours, today, Mark that mortal smile, that shining- Of the halo in the hay! While the palm trees rustle softly. While his lullaby, the breeze. Croons amid the angels' anthem Which the star-lit heaven cleave*, We will claim him ours, our treasure, Christmas Babe, and Babe divine. Hall, thrice hail, O mystic stranger. Nestling in thy straw-filled shrine! -Helen Chase, in Brooklyn Eagle. Remember that he who re ceives sparingly is oftentimes compensated by enjoying doubly.
