: The Spirit Of Christmas ' An essence so elusive as the spirit of Christmas cannot be fcaught by the point of a pen or imprisoned in the bars of type. , , The spirit of Christmas is hard to define. It includes Christ just as it includes Santa Claus. Many persons say that we "haye taken the Christ out of Christmas" by making the holidays too commercial. This, probably, in part is true. However, the spirit of Christmas is bigger than any of man's commercial ventures. If. an individual gets lost in Christmas commercialism, it is a weakness in that individual. What is this mystic breath that we call the spirit of Christmas? This much is sure there is in it the gleam of a star. There is in an angel's song.There is in it the smile of the' Holy Child. There is in it the love of Heaven come down to earth. ' On Christmas Day of 1940 many papers carried a "world round-up" Christmas story. It read: " "Christmas carolers sang today of 'Peace on Earth and Goodwill Toward Men' in countries under seige, blockade and bombardment. ".There was a lull in the aerial war over Great Britain and Germany. But there was. sharp fighting- in Albania as Greek soldiers .. ." In London that year a sign read : "Christmas is 1,940 years old. Hitler is only 51. He can't spoil our Christmas." ; No, Christmas, is not threatened by commercialism. The ri-ii 18,P strong for that. Christmas is threatened by the Hitlers that become , too strong while the people are weak Christmas is threatened by. fear.1 Christmas will never die as Jong as carolers sing the glory oi the first Christmas ; as long as the children eagerly wait to see what old Saint Nick left in the stocking or the wooden shoe; as long as persons .without fear can say "Frohe .tt eihnachten," "Joyeaux Noel," or "Merry Christmas."

HERE is a pleasant little game that will give you a message every day. It is a numerical puzzle designed to spell out your fortune. Count the letters in your first name. If the number of letters is 6 or more, subtract 4. If the number is less than 6, add 3. The result is your key number. Start at the upper left-hand corner of the rectangle and check every one of your key numbers, left to right. Then read the message the letters under the checked figures give you.

Dutch Miller's Back In Uniform

IS

After ten days in the city, Dutch is back in uniform. I don't mean Army khaki or Navy blue but a different uniform, that's every bit as patriotic and American. Blue jeans and a denim shirt, for work around the yards and barns; stout boots for tramping through the fields; and a straw hat when the sun gets high a uniform you see from Maine to Texas, IoWa to Alabama. It's the uniform of an army the great army of American farmers who, by their productivity, are

helping to keep this nation strong bolstering the forces of democracy that guard our freedom. And in their way of life, too, they are champions of freedom. Temperate folk1 who enjoy a moderate glass of beer but never quarrel with those who prefer cider. Tolerant people who fight to the bitter -end against oppression and intolerance. From where I sit, a credit to America!
