returned another way.
The world would be a better
place if we learned, after
Christmas, to return to our
journey another way .. . the way
of unselfishness and of practicing
goodwill in the loving Christmas
spirit throughout the year.
Then our earth would know the
joy the angels sang about . . , for
when we have peace and love we
cannot help but have joy. And a
world of joyful people is what
Christ's coming was about.

A CHRISTMAS THOUGHT
"GOOD HEALTH TO ALL"
You will not find it on any of the Christ-
mas gift lists, in special holiday sale newspaper
ads or available at your favorite gift counter.
But,—the most precious gift you can get at
Christmas, or for that matter any time, is the
gift of good health.
And, your chances of receiving this won-
derful gift are especially good if you will help
out just a little. Do not ignore any symptoms
of illness, have regular check-ups, follow the
advice and instructions of your doctor. We will
help too by promising to have readily available
the medicines your physician may want you to
have.

Does Christmas Mean
the. Same To-day as it
Did 100 Years Ago?
By CATHY FULLER
• Exeter
No, I think Christmas meant
more hundred years ago, because
the gifts were different and they
meant more, In the past, there
were fewer factories so the toys
and gifts were all made by hang
but to-day most of them are
bought. If they were made by
your own hands now, they would
mean a lot more.
Years ago they had to go out
and cut their own tree but to-day
you can go downtown and pay for
one with a funny looking piece of
paper and a few metal coins.
Through the past years the real
meaning of Christmas has been
slipping because you think more
about receiving gifts then you do
about giving them. Perhaps we
should stop and think about this.
What Christmas
Means to Me
By JEFF SANGSTER
Henson
Some children think that
Christmas is a time for toys.
Christmas really means Jesus
who was born in a manger,
Angels told some shepherds
about his birth, The shepherds
saw a bright star shining on a
stable in Bethlehem. There they
saw Mary and Joseph kneeling
before the baby Jesus in a
manger. That's what Christmas
means to me.
Christmas Has
Changed
By CHERYL CHAPMAN
Exeter
On the day before Christmas,
my dad and I would hitch up the
sleigh and leave mom and my
sister at home to bake cookies
and pop popcorn.
Dad always knew where just
the right tree was and we were
not long finding it. With four or
five good blows the tree would
fall into the snow. It was my job
then to make sure the tree didn't
fall off the sleigh as dad drove
home.
We'd drag the tree into the
house and stand it by the
fireplace. The lovely smell of
good things to eat came from the
kitchen. My sister would bring in
bowls of popcorn and
cranberries, two needles and a
spool of thread. We'd sit for an
hour or two stringing popcorn
and cranberries. Mom would
bring out the cookies covered
with icing and brightly wrapped
candies. Dad would put the angel
on the top of the tree and mom
helped my sister and me to put on
the popcorn strings and tie on the
cookies and candies. Dad would
balance the candles carefully on
the branches. Then while we sat
by the fire and watched the
candles flicker we'd think of
what Santa would bring.
Now at Christmas time, my
grandson and I hop in the car and
go buy a tree while my wife gets
the box of decorations down from
the attic. I put the angel on the
tree's top and string on the lights.
My wife and grandson hang on
the balls, tinsel, and icicles. Now
while I sit and watch the lights
blink, I think of how much Christ-
mas has changed.
By Gwyn
The Bible tells us the heavenly
host brought to the shepherds
`tidings of great joy .. . peace and
goodwill toward men'.
How, we may ask, can we find
Peace in a world that is torn by
conflicts in nations; communities
and often in our own hearts?
Where is the promiWd peace in a
society that seems to have gone
mad? It is surely not befitting to
use Christmas as a sort of sanc-
tuary where peace reigns for but
a day, and then throw our lives
back into turmoil and discord as
soon as it is over,
Glen H. Asquith, says in a
recent article that he has come to

By GORDON MORLEY
The UCW Christmas meeting
was held at the home of Mrs.
Wilbert Lewis. Mrs. Jack
Trevithick opened the meeting
with a few words of meditation.
Scripture was read by Mrs;....
Arnold Wasnidge after which
three Christmas carols were
sung. Mrs. Trevithick gave a
reading. Mrs. Wasnidge and Mrs.
Harvey Steeper read poems and
Mrs. Trevithick one on "How Far
to Bethlehem."
Mrs. Steeper gave the story on
"The First Noel," after which
we all joined in the singing of the
hymn. Mrs. Trevithick closed
with prayer. Mrs, Fenton took
charge of the business. Cindy
Prest had two contests. Carolyn
Lewis and Cindy Prest
distributed the gifts

thinkof the peace of this season as
an innoculation from disease. He
says, 'If I come to Christmas and
am immunized against hate and
violence, the peace of Christmas
becomes portable and I can walk
through my world without fear
that I shall be infected by the
madness around me. Each
Christmas, then, I would come
back for a "booster shot" of
peace.'
Goodwill or love was another
part of the heavenly message. At
Christmastime we experience an
outpouring of goodwill for one
another. We are often filled with
love which overflows to distant
friends, loved ones, those less
fortunate in hospitals and prisons
and the hungry and needy. But
after celebrating Jesus' birthday
we all too often return to our old
ways and think only of our own
needs once more.
Again, we read in the Christ-
mas story that after the wisemen
worshipped Jesus and presented
their gifts, they were warned in a
