He looked more like a baby than ever with his bewildered blue eyes and the fair- ness of his skin made more It "They presented unto Him gifts: gold, and frankincense, and myrrh." ' Thus St. Matthew symbolizes the spirit of Christmas. It is the spirit of giving generously. for the Wise Men gave of their best — precious gold. rare fraRkincense and myrrh, two res- ins prized in the making of incense. Most of all, it is the spirit of wor- ship and rejoicing, for Wise Men and shepherds alike knelt at the manger, in the awe and wonder of His birth. noticeable bec use of the clear red blood. "But they were smiling! Had they not won the biggest tree in the neighborhood? Some of the boys hollered ,Hooray!' A few adults clapped ... "It wasn't easy dragging that tree home.

The narrow walls took up his clear sweet voice, held it for a breath and give it back with double sweetness. Doors creaked open and families gathered on the landings, pleased and amazed at the something unexpected being added to that moment of their lives."

A high point of their visit is the Grotto-of the Nativity—the rock-hewn stable where, traditionally, Christ was born. • STACEY BROS. LTD. (DAIRY PRODUCTS) S • "For unto you is horn this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ ,the Lord." Luke 2:1 1 Bethlehem stands high on a hill, and below it is "Shepherd's Field," where tradition says the shepherds heard the glad tidings of the Nativity. The leruSalem YMCA holds carol services in the Field on Christmas Eve. And shepherds, who still tend their flocks in nearby fields, come to watch and share in the celebration. - COLD FEET DEAR COLD FEET - One des- cription of the job suggests:"The M.C. should stand up so people can see him; speak up so they can hear him; shut up so they will like him." If you can't easily be seen, or heard, or if you talk too much, you are a failure. It lies with you to put the whole affair in good humor.In- troduce guests, make each one feel at home, keep the program on schedule. If the speaker goes on much too long, stop him. Not by pul- ling coattails, but by scribbling a note, "Three minutes left", and putting it in front of him. Or, better still, by pre-arrang- ing a specified sign-off time. When emergencies arise, like soup down somebody's neck, don't panic - smile. And get it fixed. DEAR DORIS - My two little boys are hard to manage, and I am expecting another baby in five months' time. I am just 18. The oldest boy is high-strung and if anything doesn't go the way he wants it to he throws an awful tantrum. I nearly had him off the bottle this spring and when my husband came home one Friday night he couldn't stand to hear him cry so he gave the bottle back to him. It is the same thing with my other discipline. This really discouraged me to have this hard task undone when I was at my .. - WITS' END DEAR WITS' END - If your very young husband thinks he is helping anybody when he gives the baby his bottle against your wishes, the only person he is indulging is himself. When will such fathers learn that raising children takes two. All he does is disorganize, when he should be carrying half the load of training. Perhaps if you backed up your objection with a word from the experts like the public health nurses, this might make an impression. There are alsoChild Training pamphlets to back you up. These are to be had from your local or provincial health department. CONFIDENTIAL TO 131464:: FATHER - Speak from art, when you welcome your new son- in-law into the family. Take some credit for the romance, if you can. Tell an entertaining incident to do with when He courted Her; or pass out a little advice about managing your daughter, as one fealty man to another. When you have made your point and gotten a laugh or two, thank the guests for helping to make the occasion a success, and sit down. a "Where do you think you're going?" shouted the policeman to the driver going the wron: way on a one-way street.

A young chaplain, new with the prison system, was sent to console an inmate soon to be electrocuted. As the prisoner was being led to the chair, the flustered chaplain, not wanting to say, "Good-bye," which sounded terribly final; or, "see you later," which really wasn't what he wanted; finally said to the condemned man, ,SMore power to you!"
