Her face felt as stiff as a hard­ ened jelly mold from holding the smile she was determined hot to re­ lax, and internally she was positive­ ly wound up from the effort to emu­ late the rest of the gay, noisy people who were here instead of being at home where Alice thought they should be on that day above all oth­ ers that has made your own fireside the place you most like to be. While they waited for, the entree she and William were alone, sitting at opposite ends of the long table watching their children dance. Each one had been permitted a guest of his own age, but Alice’s eyes were focused on her tall, dark-haired Bill and his slim, golden-haired girl, Rosemary. Bill would soon be eighteen, that was .why he fixed her attention, William came over and sat be­ side her. "Happy, Alice?” he said, and “covered her hand with his. She returned his smile.’ After all, this spree ’Was costing, enough to have bought three or four turkeys for home consumption, "You were right, 'dear," she said. ‘ ‘The young- ' sters love it.” ' ’ ‘ ‘Rosemary told me this is the one orchestra of all on the air that she’ d choose to see,” he said proudly. “ It’s a holy wonder her folks would let her out of the house on Christ­ mas Day.” i / "The Custers are pretty old-fash­ ioned people,” said Alice, feeling that she was complimenting the girl’s family, "W e’re good for the Custers," said William. “ They need stirring up. It’s a fine thing for Rosie to get out and see a bit. of the world." ‘ ‘They’re having their Christmas dinner tonight," said Alice.

Custer, has invited Bill before the young people go to the dance.” “ Come on,.Alice, let's show these kids what for:’ ’ In spite of the crowd, William covered the ground as he had in college when she fell in love With'him. She was glad that she had managed to have her hair done Sat­ urday. The gardenia^ the children had given her to wear to church yes­ terday were still fresh. .She'd let Sister wear them tonight if her date didn’t crash through. Bill had bet Sis fifty cents he wouldn't. The orchestra melted into “ White Christmas," and young Bill tapped his father on the shoulder. “ Mom’s favorite, Dad. Let's change.” Alicd said, “ You dance almost as well as your Dad,” “ Look at him, will you?” said Bill. "Quite the old boy." Before long everyone was helping Bill and Sister dress for the dance. Bill lost his wager, and whistled over the red roses that were just right on the turquoise blue of Sis­ ter’ s frock, • She said Bill looked simply gor­ geous in his tuxedo and when his father saw him he said, “ Too bad they don’t wear ’em in the army, son," They heard Bill call Rosemary's number on the phone downstairs and then he closed the door for pri­ vacy. “ Wouldn't you think,” said Sister, t'he’d give the poor girl a chance to take a bath? I bet she gets good and sick of him." Suddenly Alice remembered a call she had forgotten to make about the baskets the church distributed yes­ terday. She flew to the upstairs’ extension, and when she heard Bill still talking in leisurely fashion, she opened her mouth to say, ag she often did when necessary, “ Hang up, you two, I need the phone.” But she didn’t say those words or any others, She listened a few. mo­ ments and her eyes filled with tears. The disappointment and hurt at the way her family had preferred to spend their Christmas vanished as her very best Christmas present of 1945 was received on the wire. “ Heck no," Bill was saying. “ I can hardly wait for an old-fash­ ioned Christmas dinner. That hotel business was all .Dad’s idea so Mom wouldn’t have to cook and wash dishes all day. None of us liked it at all. Mom had a goqd time, thpugV Christmas again! Yes, and it’s' going to be a joyful Christmas this year, isn’t it? Let’s not miss a sin­ gle bit of the joy and gladness of the season.' Let’s observe all the precious customs and traditions. Let’s share in the pleasantness and the laughter. Some may have to do it with a sense of sadness hidden in their hearts, but even they will join us in really keeping Christmas this year, But don't forget to keep Christ in your Christmas this year as never before! We who know Hjm should realize how much the world needs Him. We should see in the months just ahead our greatest opportunity to make Him known. Our lesson topic is “ The Message of Christmas to the World.” What is that message? Here it is: I. Make Room for Jesus! (vv. 1-7). “ It came to pass’ ’—yes, it always does when God has given His prom­ ise. For seven centuries God had said, "He is coming,” and then He came. God rules the affairs of this world even though thoughtless and unbelieving meri not only grieve Him, but often defy Him. Jesus came—but He came to a manger, “ because there was no room for him in the inn." Is it not the same, today? There is no room for Him now in the hearts of most men. Is He wanted in our places of business, in our governmental of­ fices, in our social gatherings? Remember, it was riot because they hated Him that there was no room. It was just that they were “ preoccupied:" Tha't is the trouble in men’s hearts today. They should have.made room in the inn for Jesus even though everyone and every­ thing else must be turned out, and we should make room for Him no matter what else or who else must go. They would have made room for Jesus had they known who He was. We do know, and yet we do not make room .1 Why not? (Jer. 17:9; John 15:24; Rom. 8:7).” (John W. Bradbury). •That is. the message of Christ­ mas! Make room in your heart, in your life and in your home for Jesus! Then go quickly and II. Tell Others About Jesus! (vv. 8- 12), The religious leaders slept soundly the night. Jesus was born. They knew the prophecius of His coming, but they were not looking for Him. Perchance some of them slept .in the very inn where He could not be received. But the shepherds were awake. They knew that something unbeliev­ ably great had happened, for the heavens were ablaze with celestial glory. At first they were afraid, but they, were soon comforted by the words “ Fear not." How characteristic'that .message is of the'whole gospel tes­ timony. Fear not, there is salva­ tion; Jesus has come to seek and to save the lost. But be sure to no'te that such a message is not just for one’s per­ sonal joy and encouragement; it is for "all people” (v. 10). The shep­ herds realized that and the verses following OUr lesson tell us that “ they made known” what they had seen (vv, 17-20). How great that need Is today! After all these centuries since Jesus came there are still multitudes of people on this earth who have never vheard about our Saviour. There hre children who would ordinarily have been in church and Sunday school who, because of the war, have grown up in heathen darkness, Others there are who have heard but have not responded, and we must gq to them once more this Christmas and tell them that "a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord" was born iri Bethlehem. Make room for Jesus, and then make' Him known to others. That will lead you to III. Praise God for Jesns (vv. 13- 14). The angels could hardly wait with their praise. "Suddenly” a multi* tude of the heavenly host appeared, praising God for the blessed mes­ sage of peace and good will. . The Christian life is quite incom­ plete and unbalanced if it does not include much praise. The Lord is worthy of all the praise of every believing heart this Christmas Day! The writer of these notes extends to you the heartiest of. good wishes at this glad Christmas season. He pleads with you if you are not a Christian, make room for the Sa­ viour in your heartl Then, let uS all make Him known everywhere, to the praise and glory of His name. It would please the one who pre­ pares these notes to have a worc| from his friends everywhere, flssuri ing him pf their Iritprpst anc| prayers. JFtisl a postcard will do.
