Having been raised in the Old World," she received little education in her eatliei years. She worked diligently on her little farm and managed to live on what she grew. But since she minded her own business and had little time for visiting neighbors, she knew veiy little about the ways of the world around her. One day, though, at a considerable sacrifice to her suspense, one neighbor dropped by and in the course of conversation commented, You use the electric lights so wonder if they were little, worth the cost of putting them 1 in. replied the yes!

In this year 1971 it epitomizes the same need to believe in the simple realities not necessarily in the hard facts; sometimes they are immaterial, secondary to the spirit that is intended. With the world full of torment and divisiveness, of raging wars and revolution, there is more need than ever today to hold to the Spirit of Christmas. Believe what you like about the divinity of the Christ, of the miracle birth, of the angels appearing to the watching shepherds, of the Star that led the Wise Men to the place where He lay.

Let us give freely of ourselves, without thought of It work toward a new year with goodwill to all. Let us work. And let us pray to that Great Spirit, Father of all, that He will guide us along our path, always. For, as Charles Dana wrote to Virginia seventy-fou- r Let us put aside old resentments, old feuds, corrosive habits which splinter our souls.
