How many times do we hear grown­ ups make this statement? Much too often, Christmas belongs to all of us, to share, and to take part in the cele­ bration of the birth of the Saviour, the greatest event in the history of the world. It seems to some that Christmas belongs to th? young because these few fail to realize that children are not engrossed! with the troubles of everyday living in the fashion of their elders. They are young at heart. For a true Christmas we need only renew our faith in the Saviour born at Christmas time, We, too, will then be young at heart. Being on rthq job at ah times beats a rabbit’s foot for luck.

Sometime during the gathering each of the guests is blindfolded and given a stick which is brandished in the air until the pinata is shattered and the delicious contents pour forth.
