The Meaning Os Christmas Throughout th? Christian world, Christmas is THE holiday, universafly celebrated, universally recognized. Probably no library in the world could house the volume of material that is written about this great holiday in a single season. Because so much as been written — and will again be written this holiday season — we must consider it remarkable that the story of the Nativity has continued a simple and unaffected narrative — “For God so loved the world. He gave His only begotten Son.” Traditions and customs are subject to the changing times. Yet. amid the laughter and festivities, whatever carols are sung, however gifts are exchanged, there remains forever unaffected the simple story of the birth at Bethlehem This is the story of Christmas — an event which took place nearly 2.000 years ago — the birth of a Redeemer and the promise of eternal salvation. Through centuries of translation, of telling and re-telling, the meaning of Christmas remains simple and universal. Christmas is the birthright of every man. Toys To Please Toy manufacturers say that very often .toys are IxHJght for the par-1 ent. Parents intend the purchase t for their child but neglected to no- j tice how the toy operates. A toy • loses very much play value if it has to be operated by a parent. Choose the right toys for your child. It will be easy to determine which type toy is lx ■st by watching reactions — take him to the toy shop. Folks who overwork to get everything they want might be happier if they'd work a little less and want a little less

Have Yourself A Safe Holiday Since Christmas is traditionally I a season of joy and happiness, special consideration should be given to the “do” and “don’t* safety rules we should observe yearround. Don't get carefree and increase the possibility of an unhappy accident. First, decorate wisely. Do not use cotton, paper or any flammable material when you trim the family tree. Do not place electric trains or other electric powered devices around the tree. Metalic tinsel falling across the track could create a short circuit and cause the train i transformer to burn. Be sure that all toys are of nonflammable materials. Some imported toys are made of nitrocellulose i (which looks like celluloid or plastic* and this material burns with surprising ferocity. Choose only electrical toys and tree light’ng sets which are laboratory approved. Do not use lighted candles near the tree, or in windows. Keep curtains or any other flammable material at windows pulled back at least six inches from any electric ; candles or wreaths. On Christmas day. keep a carton handy and dispose of all gift wrappings promptly. Don't let them pile up around the tree, near the fireI place, or any heating device. Have yourself a happy, accident- < free holiday. INDIAN CRANBERRIES The American Indians made a ■ paste from cranberries called "Pemmkan”. This was used as a poultice for cuts and wounds. They | used the juice of the berry for red j dye. Eventually the cranberry was • to become a tradition as part of the Christmas menu. San Francisco San Francisco's first tree was mack’ in 1850 from Douglas fir j branches wired to a stick by a • German Wine proprietor. I
