“He counteth the number of the
stars; He calleth them all by their
names. Great is our Lord, and
mighty in power; His understand
ing is infinite.”—^Psalm 47:4-5.
Many trees are ideal for Christ
mas trees. Pines, firs, spruces, ce
dars and bare limbs of trees make
good ones. K you get a tree without
roots ahead of time,.stand in a tub
of water with a cup of sugar in it
until time for use. This will keep
the needles from falling and help
keep the color.
Be careful in cutting trees that
you don’t destroy others and start
fires in the woods. Leave the ones
that make the prettiest show for
others to enjoy.
See that all plants or shrubs get
extra protection during winter.

A Christmas Hymn
In the fields where, long ago.
Dropping tears, amid the leaves,
Ruth’s young feet went to and fro.
Binding up the scattered sheaves
In the field that heard the voice
Of Judea’s shepherd King,
Still the gleaners may rejoice.
Still the reapers shout and sing.
For each mount and vale and plain
Felt the touch of holier feet.
Then the gleaners of the grain
Heard, in voices full and sweet,
“Peace on earth, good will to men,”
Ring from angel lips afar.
While, o’er every blade and glen.
Broke the light of Bethlehem’s
star.
Star of hope to soul in night.
Star of peace above our strife,
Sturdy, where the gates of death
Open to fields of endless life.
Wanderer from the nightly throng
Which the eastern heavens gem;
Guided, by an angel’s song.
To the babe of Bethlehem.
Not Judea’s hills'^alone
Have earth’s weary gleaners trod
Not to heirs of David’s throne
Is it given to “reign with God.”
But where’er on His green earth.
Heavenly faith and long are.
Heavenly hope and life have birth,
’Neath the smile of Bethlehem’s
star.
In each lowly heart or home.
By each lone-watched cradle-bed.
Where we rest, or where we roam.
Still its changeless light is shed.

SACRAMENTO, CALIF
When driving in California,
whether you are a reaident or
tourist, you had ^better be extra
cautious and conedehtiouB abesit
obeying all traffic lawa.
Bradford M. Crittenden,
new eonunistiener of the
Califomia Highway Patrol,
is a calm, soft-spoken man,
bnt he also is a very deter
mined-man. He’s determined
to reduce traflic deadhs and
injuries in Califoenia.
Commissioiier Crittenden ad-
mita he’s facinga big chore. There
are more than 7,500j000 licensed
drivers in Califomia, not to men
tion the thousands of tourists
visiting the state earii yeiur. But
be has faith in people.
“We are trying to persuade
California’s motemts to use ‘self
enforcement’ tactics while driv
ing. This means, simply, to obey
voluntarily all traffic laws at aU
timee.”
He wants motorists to ent
down on speeding, failing to
yield the right of way, mak
ing improper turns and driv
ing on tke wrong side of the
road. •
“Because people do cause acci
dents, we know that only through
the action of prople can we re
duce traffic acddents. We can’t
expect perfection, but if we can
reduce such violations to the min
imum, we could dramatically re
duce oat traffic deaths ana in-
jiuiea.”
In its beams ehch quickened heart,
Howe’er saddened or denied, -
Keeps one little place apart
For the Hebrew Mother’s Child.
And that inner temple fair
May be holier ground than this,
Hallowed by the pilgrims’ prayers,
Warmed by many a pilgrim’s
kiss.
In its shadow still and dim.
Where our holiest longings are.
Rings forever Bethlehem’s hymn
Shines forever Bethleheifi’s star.
—Anon.

Morris Vatz isn’t the only six-
year-old in town who comes up
with an unintentional bright say
ing at frequent iwtervals, but we’re
convinced that Harry’s unpredict
able youngster produces more than
his share.
His mother, Isabelle, teaches a
Sunday school class at the local
Jewish synagogue, and Morris hap
pens to be a member. Like his Dad,
Morris is never at a loss for words,
so when there’s a discussion or a
question and answer period in the
class he gets into the act but def
initely.
Recently the question came up
as to who were the first man and
woman on earth. Ther seemed to
be some doubt in the minds of at
least one little boy, so Isabelle
turned to Morris to clarify things.
“The first man and woman,” he
proclaimed quite proudly, “was
Adam and Evil.” His answer was
n’t exactly accurate, but consider
ing the trouble Adam got into with
his mate it would seem that Evil
instead of Eve might be an appro
priate name at that.
Other kids before Morris have
gotten a bit mixed up when deal
ing with Biblical situations. For
example, we recall the little boy
who drew a beautiful scene of
Bethlehem’s manger.
The setting was quite complete,
and he was careful to include all
the characters. There were Mary
and Joseph and Jesus, along with
the three wise men and the angels.
However, added to these was a man
quite fat who could not be identi
fied by the teacher.
“Who is this?” the teacher ask-

ed, pointing to the fat man in the
picture^
“Don’t you know who that it?”
the moppet replied in amazement.
“Why, that’s Round John Virgin!’.’
So you see, young Mr. Morris
Vatz needn’t feel too badly just be
cause he called the first woman
Evil instead of Eve. As a matter
of fact, he has probably already
forgotten the incident.
