Heavenly Messengers According to AnsEarlus, who converted the Vikings to Christianity, Chris-tianity, the Lord sent Faith, Hope and Charity to earth to select His Christmas Tree. They selected the Balsam Fir because it was as high as Hope, as wide as Love, and bore the sign of the cross on every branch. Constructive Toys Make Better Gifts When you buy toys for children, give a thought to their constructive qualities. How much can they do with the gifts you are providing them? Will they soon tire of them and go back to the good old spoons and pans in the cupboard that they can do so many things with? If you buy a doll, get one that can be dressed, bathed and brushed. If a boy wants a doll, let him have it. Fathers love children, i Growing children need big toys that require lifting, tugging, running movement of muscles. Blocks are ideal. Think of the things that can be done with them! One carpenter out of work made quite a good thing last Christmas of children's blocks. He collected odds and ends of boards at the lumber yard, planed them off smoothly, painted them gay colors col-ors and sold them in lots of a dozen i up to 100. Wagons, cars, scooters, skates, sleds, and skiis are good. But the toy should suit the age of the recipient. Every boy should have a ball of some kind. Boys like trains, but wooden blocks painted t resemble cars are better than the kinds that can run only on tracks. Girls "are pleased with rolling pins, doll beds, houses, trunks, small chairs and tables, and dishes. One mother writes that her son's most cherished gift last Christmas was five pounds of assorted nails given him by an understanding uncle. For older folks, books and Christmas Christ-mas just seem to go together as naturally as bread and jam, or Third Ward Party Date Changed ThA Third Ward Christmas Pnrtv which was previously scheduled for Friday evening, has been moved ahead one aay, t.n Thursday evening, due to the Play School party being held on that date, ward Primary omcers, who are in charge of the program, pro-gram, announce.
