fi' CHRISTMAS SHOPPING

Sin-We note the calendar, we ilok at the beautifully decorated windows of our stores, we read the newspaper ads, we listen to the radio. and we become shocked into l Christmas shopping again.

Perhaps we should pause and ask ourselves these questions: (l) , Wily should we go through all this ; ear after year? (2) How is this shopping frenzy related to Christ- mas? i3) What is Christmas? In formulating our answers let us be- gin with the third question, and work backward through question t-"O. and finally question one. Let us try to answer these questiczls in the spirit oi Truth before we do any Christmas shopping at s11,
