We do not know why we laugh but When we are filled with unadulterated joy our diaphragm flutters up and down and we produce the sovad called laughter. Whatever laughter is . . it makes us feel good. Not guffowing at a vulgar 4 el joke or sniggering sarcastically, but the giving forth of that wonderful, exultant expression of happiness that comes straight from the bottom of the soul. We talk about the release of tears . . . but just as miraculous is the release of laughter, Q* is week ere stood in a funeral parlour with friends. Their daughter, Mary, had died the day before. It was a crushing blow for them and for her young husband, and yet, for a few brief moments we were released from it as we recalled her zest for life and happy disposition. We laughed as we remembered her lively little girls antics and her exuberant teen-age years when she breezed happiness everywhere she went. For to Mary life was good and joyous and exciting and filled with laughter. These characteristics stayed with her to the end even though she knew she fought a losing battle against an incurable disease. ri In the short time she lived it was never in her nature to be cast down or sad and all she asked from the others around her was that they, too, be happy. Were I to write her epitaph it would have to be, "Mary laughed a lot and was a joyous • soul.". To clutch our sorrow fast about us and not let got of it would be to break a sacred trust with her now that she is gone.

Fancy Boxes For her family and friends, and for others who have lost a loved one I share part of a favorite poem by Robert Louis Stevenson: CONSOLATION Though she that ever kind and true, Kept stoutly step by step with you Your whole long gusty lifetime through Be gone awhile before, Yet, doubt not, soon the seasons shall restore Your friend to you. She has but turned a corner . still She pushes on with right good will Thro' mire and marsh, by bough and hill That self-same upland hopeful way That you and she through many a doubtful day Attempted still. She is not dead, this friend . . . not dead But in the path we mortals tread, Got some few, trifling steps ahead, And nearer to the end; So that you, too, once past the bend Shall meet again, as face to face this friend You fancy dead. Push gaily on, strong heart; The while You travel forward mile by mile, She loiters with a backward smile, Till you can overtake, And strains her eyes, to search her wake Or, whistling, as she sees you through the brake Waits on a stile. * * * From houses up and down the snow covered streets comes the sound of Christmas carols Sunbeam Razors $29" eltt p ry' ter Christmas si* Cards 18 assorted Reg $1.25 69 4 ‘see Evening In Paris Sets $400 $2's 5250 $20° ,eaet • teier le er--,6 Ladies ilt Purses & Billfolds $700 $500 $593,4 56 °° S 4Ntseer-e0e. being thumped out methodically by eager young musicians, There must be a book of carols for every musical instrument from the tiniest beginners to the top players and the teachers are quick to take advantage of the situation, The children love to play these lovely old melodies and what they lack in ability or accurateness they do make up ' for in earnestness and sheer determination.

Villagers were a very musical people and despite the weather conditions still planned to hold their annual musical celebration in their little church. However, the schoolmaster, who was also the church organist discovered that the organ had broken down, and knowing how disappointed the people would be without music went to the assistant priest, Joseph Moir, and suggested he write a special song for the Christmas celebration. He asked that it be so simple it could be sung without preparation or organ accompaniment. Mohr agreed to try and sought for words to best express the feeling of Christmas. Towards, the end of the same day he went back to the organist with the beautiful, immortal words of "Silent Night, Holy Night" and Gruber composed a simple little melody to fit the words. On Christmas morning, 1818, the carol was sung for the first time. A young Oberndorf citizen knew a few chords on the guitar and this was the only accompaniment. The words "Silent night, Holy night, All is calm, All is bright" sounded pure and clear over the Bavarian air. Since that day 150 years ago this lovely carol has sounded around the world, translated into almost every language, to celebrate the birth of our Lord, Jesus Christ. There's more good reading at the library. Librarian Mrs. John Schroeder reports another shipment of books. You've still got time to read some of them and decide if you'll buy a copy for a Christmas gift.
