The true Christmas spirit! How many have it t Can It be found in this modern world of bustle and bargain, of dissatisfaction and display, of giving and' gettlsgf Have w ot allowed Christmas to become a

bugbear instead of a Joyf Does the mad, complaining search for sifts to be given

promiscuously which .the average woman indulges in, show the slightest sign of It t Does the absurd lack of fitness evidenced In thousands of perfunctory presents suggest a trace of 14 f Is not the universal feeling that

"I must give something to aer

because she is sure to give something to me" Its death knell t Can spontaneous love and gracious giving go hand In hand

with the spirit of calculation? And Is not the fact that every

grownup heaves a sigh of relief when It Is over the, final proof that we have made of It a time

of trial and tribulation utterly spoiling Its real meaning?

The true spirit of Christmas

Is one of love and unselfishness. It is clothed In the garments of slmpliiclty and good taste;

It seeks the byways and hedges, where lonely souls are sorrowIng, rather than the crowded houses of the rich; It knocks

gently at the door of old and unremeinbered friends, bringing warmth and cheer to desolate hearts; It carries Joy wherever

It goes, leaving no sense of

obligation, and seeking no return. It makes our. modern Christmas, with its ostentation

and extravagance, seem a 4 tawdry. The girl who wants to feel

the presence of this sweet spirit will make up her mind to give

from her heart, and not merely

from ber purse. She will realize 4

that a simple remembrance, well

chosen, sent to a friend who has

already an abundance of this

world's gifts, will be more ac-

4 ceptable than the elaborate pre-

sent hastily bought and regretfully sent. '

She will know that a bios-

soming plant to the lonely soul

whose hunger for flowers can

only be satisfied by the fleeting

beauty of the florist's window,

will be a joy; that an unexpected gift will delight the girl who

treads the dull path of necessi-

4 ty; that a simple toy given to

toyless children carries a pathetlc value beyond Its Just proportion.

If she would truly know the

real joy of Christmas let her

open her heart and send forth 4

love and friendship, and she will j find, no matter hovv meager her

purse, her gifts vWfi make peo- !

pie happy.
