BERt ROWDEN 481460 PAUL KERRIGAN, AGENT 3/9 'VICTORIA ''MUT The Story of the Nativity (From the Gospel of St. Luke, Chapter II, 1-20) 1. And it came to pass in those days, that there went, out a decree from Caesar Augustus, that all, the world should be taxed. 2. (And this taxing was first made when Cyrenius was governor of Syria). 3. And all went to be taxed, every one into his own city. 4. And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judea, unto the city of David, which is called Bethlehem; (because he was of the house and lineage of David). .5. To be taxed with Mary his espoused wife, being great with child. 6. And so it was, that while they were there, the days were 'accomplished that she should be delivered. 7. And she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger; because there was no room for them in the inn. 8. And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flocks by night. 9. And lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them; and they were sore afraid. 10. And the angel said unto them, Fear not; for, behold I bring you tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. 11. For unto you is born this day, in the city of David, a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord. 12. And this shall be a sign unto you: "Yq shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger." 13. And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising Cod, and saying: 14. Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men. 1.5. And it came to pass, as the angels were gone away from them into heaven, the shepherds said one to another, Let us 7194) go even unto Bethlehem, and see this thing which is come N Pass, which, the Lord hash made known unto 144% 10% And it came to pass, as. the angels were gone away from and the babe lying in a manger, 17, And when they had seen it, they made known abroad the saying which was told them concerning this child. 18. And all they that heard it wondered at those things' which were told them by the shepherds, 19. Out Mary kept all these things, and pondered them in her heart, 20. And the shepherds returned glorifying and praising God for all the things that they had heard and se,en as it was told unto them. 2 teaspoons dried rosemary leaves 1 1/2 teaspoons cloves 1 teaspoon ginger 10 to 12 pound (fully cooked-bone in ham) Preheat oven to 325 degrees.

Christmas is a great reality. Around this reality, men of good will have added much tradition and, perhaps, a fair amount of legend. Yet the reality of Christmas remains unchanged. Some nineteen hundred and sixty-nine years later, the story of the First Christmas, the clear vision of the Holy Birth at Bethlehem keeps constant the spirit of abiding love. Many inspiring words have been written about the proper keeping of Christmas. The spirit of love permeates these famous words of Henry Van Dyke: Is ,a good thing,to observe Christmas pay. The mere .mark- ing of times and seasons, when men agree to stop work and make merry together is a wise and wholesome custom. It helps one to feel the supremacy of the common life over the indi- yidual life. "Are you willing to stoop down and consider the needs and desires of little children; to remember the weakness and lone- liness of people who are growing old; to stop asking how much your friends love you and ask yourself whether you love them enough; to bear in mind the things that othe . people have to bear on their hearts; to make a grave for ). cur ugly thoughts and a garden for your kindly feelings, with the gate open — are you willing to do these things even for a day? Then you can keep Christmas. "Are you willing to believe that love is the strongest thing in the world — stronger than hate, stronger than evil, stronger than death — and that the blessed life which began in Bethlehem some 1900 years ago is the image and brightness of the Eternal Love? Then you can keep Christmas. And if you keep it for a day, why not always?" We leave you with these thoughts and our very best wishes for a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. DID YOU KNOW...?
