bnjil one over some hot coals, and
thd result was something half done,

Christmas morning I heard a lot

oven to the wonderful deen freeze
boxes, Christmas in the country
may not be so different from
Christmas in the citv. In fact 1 am
afraid that when people become
less dependent noon one another
for company, and joy and happi
ness and entertainment in their
own neighborhood much that is
good has been sacrificed to so call
ed progress
The celebration of, Chnstjrias in
the cities I also fear has become
too much commercialized. There
is too much done to stimulate trade,
jind the continuous playing of the
great old Christinas carols three
weeks before hand is to be regret
ted. It takes much from the jov
of anticipation of hearing at mid
night on Christmas Eve, "Joy to the
world, the Lord Has Come; Lot
earth receive her King."
For Christmas does not-depend
on how much you ipend or how
much you receive, on how much
food you prepare or the, hospitality
you dispense.' Just to watch the
faces of the happv crowd in a city
is inspiring, because on the faces
of mothers children, husbands.
wive sweethearts, brothers, sis
ters and friends one sees that in
definable light,' that something
which tomes over us and drives us
on to exnress in some way our love

Bottle Note In Ocean
i Finally Gets A Reply
NEW YOItK (API After 20
long years it finally happened
Arthur Wagner, a ship's steward,
finally got an answer to the bottled
notes he's been tossing into the
ocean these many years.
He's been using one-ballon bot
tles for the notes which ask the
finder to write him or Sam Finkel
stein, another steward. When the
Constitution docked recently in
New York, Finkclstein received a
letter from one Donato Gigianto of
Marsala, Italy, which said:
"My dear Sam: I've found it,
your bottle with this message in it
where you wrote to get it back and
I m doing It as you sed. Well, I've
founded it at the seaside. I should
like to know why you did it be
cause I never found it anything,
but this I think it must be some-
thing very jmportant."
Sam and Art aren't so sure now
just what the point of the whole
thing was.
