THE CHRISTMAS SEASON
We are again in the happiest sea -
Won of the entire year, the Christ-
mas season, where millions of peoples
the world over, where christianity is
proclaimed, rejoice over the birth of
Christ, the redeemer of the world to
the living God Jehovah. There are
other religions that worship some ex-
tra feasts or something species] at
this. particular time but we have the
assurance that there is no form of
genuine happiness that visits the
hearts of peoples as the Christmas
does to those who believe in the
christian religion. Then there are a
few who claim they believe on noth-
ing, but at this time of year we are
always happy to see them fall in line
and join worshiping the King of
Kings; no one was ever like Him.
All the big radio networks will have
special/ programs these days • and
many clrurc'hes special ,services to
commemorate the gift of God to a
sinful world. We trust that every
reader of our little issue will take
time to realize the significance of it
all. ._ •

he did much suffering, which he bore
with Christian fortitude. In his
younger years he was an active work-
in the little brick Evangelical church
which stood about a mile north, and
' fter this was closed she made his

merly Leah Geiger; a daughter, Mrs.
Jack Smith (Edna), of New Dundee;

Township), of the 14th concession,

eon, Mich., and two brothers, Daniel
