With this simple and sincere greeting, all the warmth and ex citement of Christmas reaches its peak. In this community, as in cities and towns throughout the nation and around the world, days and wcks of list-making, gift-shop- ping, home • decorating, party • planning and Christmas - pro gram r rehearsing are reaching a happy culmination. Families gather, Santa enters church bells, Santa enters, church hells ring. Christmas arrives! Every year, Christmas seems to generate more eager anticipation, here and everywhere, with ear lier and more enthusiastic plan ning — appropriately, for part of the spirit and the joy of Christ mas is in the planning. The spirit of Christmas starts with thoughtfulness. It begins In the hearts of each of us. It grows with a hope, a wish, a praver. It shows itself, outwardly, in such manifestations as merry songs and bountiful gifts, and in the lestive decorations and glow ing lights now adorning local streets and stores, homes and churches. It expresses itself, most deeply. In private devotions and in spe cial services such as those sched uled by local churches. It is a spirit abounding in leg end and lore, in customs and tra ditions honored through the years. And most of all, it is the .spirit of reverence and joy that shep herds and wise men knew. To capture that spirit is to keep Christmas truly and well, for it enriches all the things this won derful season stands for. FOR CHILDREN Christmas is for children. Can dies and cookies and all those holiday goodies, trees gaily a- dorned and brightly lighted, San ta’s pack stuffed with surprises— all these things are planned and prepared just for the children. Or at least, so the grownups say, and who’s to doubt them? In a still more special way, Christmas is for children. ’The manger scene in homes and churches ever reminds us that the Child born in Bethlehem was He who later said, “Suffer little chil dren to come unto me.” FOR REJOICING Christmas is for rejoicing. Since first the herald angels sang, this I lames L. Davis rejoicing has most often found expression in music and song. “Glory to God in the highest, I Aboord USS Ranaer and on earth peace, good will to-1 ward men,” the angels sang. | i’ri0CS0311) Dec. 10 — USS Now as in earliest times, the RANGER (FH'I’NC) Seaman spirit of joy and wonder echoes Aprenlice James L.
