Loot and Fopind While Christmas Shopping E 1TTLE-MABIE, jostled from, one side to the other of the pave­ ment by the hurrying Christmas shoppers, became suddenly panicky. What if she would never, never gee her imunnu. againV How, In all that mob of hurrying, brusque people could she ever -.find her? The streets and side­ walks were a black mud color from the snow trampled down by the thou­ sands of people and vehicles, passing over them. What If she should, slip and fail and cover herself with that dirty slush? No one would ever rec­ ognize her. She would be lost; she would have to-walk the streets like this forever and ever—oh! oh! Two large tears trickled down her cheeks' and a great sob shook her little frame. A large-nosed Santa Claus in a red flannel ,suit grinned at her and shook a little tincup which tinkled with many coins. On the corner a small group of blind beggars were singing Christmas carols in cracked, ugly voices. Marie stopped in front of them, watched them for a while, then suddenly re­ membering her loneliness, burst Into a loud shriek. Several people stopped pityingly and Inquired keyname and where-she lived, but she could not tell them, fOr the sobs were choking her throat. A large, excited lady pushed her way through the crowd.' “Marie i Oh, malntna thought you -were lost!” .The woman swept the little girl off her feet, clutching her . eagerly. Marie held on to her most tightly, but con­ tinued to .cry with bitterness. It was a way of relieving her feelings, and so comforting to have, dear mother’s shoulder to cry on. Oh! oh! It was going'to be a glorious Christmas nfter nit!—Marion It. Reagan. ((E), 1924, Western Newspaper Union.) Let Christmas Spirit Prevail Through Year HAT n world It would be if all (IjUFt of us kept up the Christmas spirit hit through the year! How much of unhappiness, or discon­ tent, or unrest, would we all be spared? How many foolish quarrels | and useless bickerings would never be if our hearts held the message of love and trust and peace that they do to­ day? How many homes would be un­ broken and bow many men And women would work together in a new and deeper bond of love and service? How trivial and small would appear some of the reasons that estrange us from each other? How petty and mean the little jealousies and misunderstand­ ings tnnt hamper our way and our vision? How different our fellow-men would appear In our eyes—their little weaknesses und failings would be tilings to stir our hearts to pity, In­ stead' of to scorn and contempt. Well It would be for the world and for each one of us n3 Individuals if the spirit of pence, of love, of goodwill toward ail men burned in our hearts through all the year with the fervor It does today.—Katherine Edelman.

For the Christmas Turkey When your turkey lias been stuffed and you are ready to close the open­ ing, try using small toothpicks such as can be purcaosed for five cents a box. Skewer it together with these Instead of the old-fashioned, tedious, greasy way Of se.vlng It together, und see how much better satisfied you will be with this method. The toothpick- skewers may be easily removed after the turkey Is roasted and hold more firmly, besides being lest unsightly.

In their minds all nffiietion, negative and-positive, was God's retribution for pin. Therefore they argued that this man’s blindness proved sin. They rec­ ognized, too’, that the eifeot of sin is sometimes hereditary. This they no doubt inferred from the second com­ mandment (Ex. 20:5). The implication Is that they , held the view that men have a pre-existence, and that suffer­ ing in this life may lie the result of sins committed in 'that pre-existent State. 2. The Lord's Answer (vv. 3-5). The Lord avers that in this cuse there is neither sin on the man’s part, nor that of his parents, but tlmt It was an oc­ casion for tl>e display of the works of God, and that H® had come to execute this task while it Is day, because the night comes when no man can work. II. The Map's ,Eyes. Opened (vv. C, 7). Observe that the means used in tills miracle were little less than .foolish in themselves. How lily adopted natural­ ly woyid a plaster o f mud be to apply to the eye, the most delicate and sensi­ tive .of all the organs of the body. What Is more to be avoided than sand In touch with the eye? The object must have been to teach this nian the utter inadequacy of the means to the accomplishment of the end that1 lie might be caused to look from the means to the one who used them, that- he might be convinced that the was of God. Then, too, live washing, is the pool would tench him the absolute necessity Of Immediate and explicit, obedience in order /to enjoy God's blessings. III. The Man’s. Testimony (yv. :36-38). ' Tn ills testimony we have a fine cx- ;ample of the development of faith. The (opening of this man’s eyes.aroused In­ quiry among bis neighbors. When a ■mah's spiritual eyes arc opened then? •will be a stir among ids friends. * 1. He testifies to bis personal iden­ tity (v. 9)< This was very easy. His self-consciousness enabled him to •know that he was the same nmh Who was botn bllpd. ' ’ 2. He testifies ns to how it was done (vv, 11, 15). So definite was ids ex­ perience that he was able to tell just how it was done. 3. lie testifies that the One who ’ opened ills eyes wr-s a prophet (v. 17). 4. He testifies that this, healer was no doubt sent of God (vv, 30-35), and Is the greatest worker of miracles since the world began. 5. Finally, he worships Him ns the Ron of God. IV. The Results of Hit) Confession. 1. As to the people, they ,)vere di­ vided in sentiment, Smiie believed Hd .was from God because of His works; others that He was a sinner because He did His work ou the Sabbath day. 2. As to the mart, they cast him out But being cast out 1>y men he found himself in the anr,s of Jestm, He la led on to a"deeper faith. He first saw Him as a miracle worker, then ns a prophet, and finally as tliu Son of God, and when he perceived Him to be the Son of God ho worshiped" Him. The whole lesson may be viewed from three angles: 1. As an acted parable of the Ilf* that Issues JnTaith In Christ, an illus­ tration of tjxispirltnal sphere In terms of the physic*I sphere. 2. TeslItK&fiST t® the Deity of our .Lord. Till# testimony is threefold: (a) The miracle Itseif, an unheard- of work, Hint a man born blind should receive his sight; (b) tin utiwlliing ad­ missions of tiie enemies themselves wiio made a public and official investi­ gation; (c) the testimony of the man .himself and Hint of Ills parents. : 3.
