STRAYHÀîiP How Long Will Christmas Last T raditionally, there haa been and in many countries there Is a celebration of Christmas for twelve days. Many school ch il­ dren consider the Christmas Season those days they are out of school for the holidays. To them It Is norm ally a two week span of Christm as. Many people have one day and It is a ll over. Some among us have no C h rist­ mas at all In the true sense of the word. The m inister and the m er­ chant were talking about C h rist­ mas and the merchant told the m inister, "When Christmas Is over It’s over and our job Is to get rid of all the Christmas decorations, t o y s , and every­ thing connected with Christmas In one day after It Is o v e r." The M inister replied, " I have a much bigger Job, I have to try to keep Christmas In the hearts of my people fo r a life tim e ." Christmas w ill last as long as you have and practice the s p irit of Christmas. Sure the joyous celebration with the parties, the greetings of M erry Christmas and the colorful decorations w ill last only for a short tim e. But, Christmas Is a tim e In life of concern for others, It Is an act of kindness and love, It is a tim e of giving without thoughts of receiving, It is a tim e of peace and good w ill, it Is a tim e of rejoicing, It Is a tim e of wor­ shipping, It Is a tim e to be happy, It Is a tim e of response with the best you have to the highest you know. How long w ill Christmas last? You set the tim e lim it and you w ill make the decision as to how long C hrist­ mas w ill last fo r you.
