When a baby is bom in the block, the flagpole flies a dispel. When a neighbor dies, the flag is moved to half-staff. THE DAILY DUNN. H. «. - "Chrlitma, is the line you tie cide to pay your doctor something on account You know you Will need him the day after.” Pulitzer. “What do people mean by find ing you a dozen Christmas cards during the festive season, and not deigning to send you three lines by way of a letter the rest of the year?” —J. Ashby-Sterry. I “At every Christmas party, just as things are beginning to get good, someone shuts his eyes, puts Ids head back and moans softly: ’Ah, well, this isn’t like the good old days. We don’t seem to have any good old-fashioned Christmases any more.” —Robert Benddey. Christmas: 'Good Tima; A Kind, Forgiving Time' Charles Dickens once referred to Christmas as “a good time; a kind, forgiving, charitable, pleasant time.’’ This is an adequate descrip tion of the Christmas spirit. Why not make this an old fashioned Christmas? Elaborately planned parties, those great time-takers, should not be a part of the Christinas scene. A I homey, hospitable get-together will create an atmosphere in which everyone can relax. , Since Christmas Is really “the children’s hour”, why not give them a greater part in preparing for the day? Children will get more delight from helping prepare and decorate the tree than in seeing only the finished product.

If you use k peb ble or rock-filled pail to support the tree, cover the pebbles or rock with . a plant food solution. Use one teaspoonful of plant food, powdered form, to each gallon of water In the container, or use one plant food tablet to each g.iinn. Female Deer I I Also Vain j FILLMORE, Calif. (Hi Moat people have noticed that woman can’t resist peeking into ‘mirrors. Female deer can’t either, appar ently. One doe saw her reflection in a big mirror over the fireplace in the Les Shlells home here and leaped through a 13-foot living room window to get a closer look. She plunked her forelegs on the mantel and smooched with her re flection until the Shlells’ dog frightened her away through a second h<de in the window. s ~lt Takes 13 Women To Make Americas Most Beautiful | HOLLYWOOD HI The most beautiful woman fat America is not a single female but a composite i of 13 lovely ladles, the National ! Portrait Photographers’ Assn, de cided today. The association’s 197 members scanned America pulchritude and came up with the names of 13 prominent women to entertain ment, sports and public life who possess the features that should be , embodied to the country's most beautiful woman. The shutter-clickers selected Joan Crawford’s lugs because they express "romance, rhythm and sheer poetry," and Mrs. Douglas MacArthur’s smile, which shows “heartfelt sincerity and compas sion."

Records show, however, that the holiday was spoken es in the fourth century as s custom of long standing. Christmas began as Christ’s Mass, or the Mass of Christ, sometime during the fourth century. It took that long after the blessed night for toe great importance of Christ’s birth to be realized by the people. Until this time it had been the cus tom" of toe church to celebrate the anniversaries of deaths, rather than births. Christ’s birthday was the first to be made an occasion for feisttof. The date for the celebration of the Christ Mass was selected by the ’ church. So many years had elapsed that toe actual date of His birth dould only be a matter of conjec ture. The festival and spirit of Christ mas spread through toe Christian worlds. Pagan customs, even as they do today, attempted to adapt themselves to the Christmas season. • For many years after the origin of Christ's Mass the church frowned upon the practice of exchanging , gifts during the festival season. Later, however, toe practice was condoned, in remembrance of the spirit of the Three Kings of the Orient who had followed a shining Star to toe crib of the new-born Christ, bringing presents with a sense of humility. , * * \ # >1 Kjfc.
