It is in many ways appropriate that the anniversary of Him who was born in the siable at Bethlehem, should be an occasion for giving . No other ever revealed so.surely the The blessedness of giving is not a t i1 off promise but immediate and real in its fruits. Whoever gives wholeâ€" heartedly gains in reiurn the satisâ€" faction of obeying a generous impulse and the joy in sharing another‘s hapâ€" piness. And if ever that‘good meas vre, pressed down and shaken toâ€" wether and running cver is rendered to these who give, it is at Christmas time.

There was nothing synthetic about the sun,blne that came from Henry Ford. It‘s a rattling good guess that Mr Ford‘s action did more to create conâ€" fidence, stabalize trado and diffuse optimism than all the pretty speechâ€" es of those other magnates whq reâ€" mained behind to confer with Presiâ€" dent Hoover.
