Re -Creating The
Nativity 'In
Art and Song
Through the years, the mean-
ing of the manger has been en-
riched by hundreds of thou-
sands
housands of reverent recreations.
Both craftsmen and artists
have been inspired by the
manger, and have shared their
inspiration with many. The
Madonna and Child appear
again and again in countless
famous painting s, and the
Christmas creche in miniature,
created by the loving hands of
skillful craftsmen, is a precious
tradition in many lands, in
many homes.
In song, too, "the young Child
with Mary His Mother" lives
anew. Gathering around the
manger scene, glad voices joy-
fully •carol, "Silent Night, Holy
Night! All is calm, all is bright,
'roun yon Virgin Mother and
Child . . ,"
the bells are merrily
ringing with joyous notes
of good cheer to bring you,
our customers, special greetings of
%1 holiday season and our *cola "thank pouP
