The Heritage of the Christmas Heart, - {By H. Lewis Meyer) ' \ —The story of the lighted skies, of thronging angels. of a heavenly visitant calling h2r Babe the Savior of Min of humble scantily clad . shepberds crowding the Jowly stable to worahip and adore, Mary kept all these things and pondered in her heart. The great question of life then arnd after was why? What meant these things? Long sad years had to pass, years filled with anxiety, grief vearning and the short sightedness of human love, before fpll comprehension into these remembered mysteries: could come. And what Mary but dimly saw, but parually comprehended, yet stored up as & precious legacy in ber heart is our heritage today, the heritage of. the Christmnag heart. And that heriiage is this: - L :

. The transforming light of a wondrous Revelation. hWen Isalah in the heart of his pecple’s ruls, saw a new light fllumine the gléom of national shame and vice and individual sin, be shouted aicud: “The psopie that walk in darkness have seen a great light; for unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given; end He shall be called the Prince of Peace.” This is our heritage a Wansliguring light, sa awakening revelation of the Love of God to a talien race. Mén are awaken ed by it, lifted up by it, transformed Dy .it. Miton in his bhymn on the Natlvity teils of -angelic music and heaveuly harmonies bul then he stirs -us with these words, - e

What Will You Do Xmas For ~ Starving Children of Europe

To Herbert Hoover the deaths from . tarvation of babes and ittle children has been the outstanding borror of the war—and he Rhas seen all its phuses. The carnage of artillery, the hasd-tohand grappling ta No Man's Land as dusk yielded to dawn, the frightful sufering in improvised fleld bospitals and the pitiful maimirg and blinding of men destroyed in usefu faculties but permitted to live—all these are forgotten when puny arms of bungry little cnes are stretched for food that is pot. .

Relief Council seéeks with which to save 3500,000 children in Central Europe does not mean three meals s day even to those who are already de formed and stunted by fosufScient feeding. Of the ambunt, $10,000,000 must be usel for medicines and hos pital supplies. The $23,000,000 avalk able for food will buy ONE MEAL A DAY ONLY but upon this the frafl bodies can be bullt up to sufficient re sistance to disease to live until the next harvest when it is hoped each country can care for its own.

It is Mr. Hoover's own plan that a large part of the money be raised at Christmas time. It is his beautiful idea that at happy American Christmas dinhers there will be invistble guests, who are the starving dbabes of Europe. If YOU are willing to entertain one of these Invisible guests—made in the image of the Christ Child who came poor and bhungry—Afill out the accompanying coupon and wsend five, ten, one hundred dollars, more it possible, to your unseen guests.
