A that truth is that at all time! happiness is found only 1n service to others. Such is the teaching of Christ, and there can be no truly JOYOIII celebration of the birth of Him whose life was consecrated to the service of humanity. than in following His example.

A CHRISTMAS MESSAGE One of the greatest joys of Christ- mas festival is the spirit of giving. Look around you after the holiday and you will find, almost invariably, that those who have enjoyed it most are the ones who laid them- selves out to give someone else l good time. ' There are of course, men and wo- men. restless and unsatidied at heart, vaguely aware that they are I not getting the best out of life, who try to deceive themselves that they I are enjoying the festival by carry- ; ing its grosser pleasures to excess. .' Too much carting, too much drinking, Too much everything, _but think- | lng! a5 Leigh Hunt wrote. But these can continue in that way only for a time. With a certainty that they lcannot avert, t e day comes when the body rebels against such abuse, when health -will no longer endure it. Tihen, they realize that they } have lived through the greater part of life without discovering" any real joy in Christmas. so they blame Christmas. Never do they censure themselves, Accus- tomed by life-long error to m1; happiness among their surround- ings. 0r to buy it with money. they feel that the world is cheating them of something. or that the whole convention of Christmas is an lmposture.
