The people of that first century were so busy read- ing the headlines about the battles that they forgot to read about the birth of a baby in the greatness column. Possibilities of are in every child born because something of God is in every child. . 4. ---Christ and Christmas come reminding us to make room for the second best. Christ was born in a second best place because there was no room for Him in the best place. The person who shuts out of his life the second best, the unpromising, the disappointing, frequently shuts the 'door against life's best blessings. When a man makes room for the second best, accepts it, rightly uses it, he frequently makes it even better than the best. (Read the wonderful story of Joseph Piru- kowsky) Christmas comes telling us to with- hold our angry protest. Try and see the world from God's side!

Life is made sweet by the friends that we meet And the things that In common we share, We want to live not because of ourselves But because of the people who care. It's living and doing for somebody else On what life's splendor depends, And the Joy of this life when you sum it all up. Is found in the making of friends. So here's to my friends, and a wish sincere For a Merry Christmas and a Gay New Year, With a hope for pleasure and health to you in all the things you say and do. If '58 should be a year of trial, Meet it won't you with a smile. Your task will always be more sincere If you correct the mistakes you made last year. And there is one thing more for you to remember, I am at your service from January through December. Sincerely yours, L.
