Show Finding her daddy was a big Christmas bonus!! r It was Christmas Day and her litle heart yearned for to find her only one thing real daddy! As shed been looking through the telephone book, her eyes fastened on the listing: Finder of Missing Persons. Now, someway, shed mustered up the cour-- i j age to make the phone call. Her little heart pounded ! loudly in her ears as the phone rang on the other end. What would she say to the big J ; ; man heir finder, Bill Jones)? What would he care about a little girls call a little girl who had no money to pay for a fee. Would he sigh, Oh, no, what a botheration on a holiday Christmas Day, no less? Would he say, Sorry, little girl, Ive just got too many other cases to handle and cases with big money to gain? As the big man picked up the phone and listened his heart was touched.

It wasnt too many years ago that while turning the pages of those Wish Books one would discover diagonal signs across some ads that ; proclaimed, NOT AVAIL-- ; ABLE. In fact, it became a game to some younger ones to see how many such signs ; could be spied in the catalog. Times have changed and ; today so many things ARE available. What an abundance of things we have to choose ' from! But there is one thing ! that often seems to have the I sign, NOT AVAILABLE, I and stamped all over it ; that is TIME. Taking TIME ; to take the children out in ; the woods or to the shopping ; lot to let them help choose the Christmas tree is a little ; ' something for big ories. mem- - It often takes so little, really, to please children. What will become most important to them is not so much the THINGS that soon will break, or theyll outgrow, or theyll just get bored with, but its the TIME and love we spend on them the giving of ourselves that will mean the most. This goes not only for the children in the family but for husbands and wives as well. How often the house, the cookies and pies and candies and casseroles that have been slaved over, the long hours spent at the office to pay for THINGS make only a pressured house and not a spic-and-sp- loving, relaxing home. This year, why not lets balance the holiday fun to really make it a home full of the fragrance of love and togetherness that will make beautiful memories that will last a lifetime and not just for a fleeting season.
