' ''There will be a distinctly American touch to this year's celebra
t Ion with funds sent from the United States. The American Y, M. C. A.
Is providing for the first time in history a community Christmas tree
which is to be for all denominations, Jews, Christians and Mohamme
dans The tree will be set up in the field of Boat, where the shepr
heroX watched their flocks by night and it will .be lighted by elec
tricity and decorated, like, the community trees in the United .States,
; . Tfhousands of pilgrims and tourists wjll see the tree as they come
over, the road from Jerusalem on foot: and by donkey, horse, or auto
,mobiie.; 'Among those whd.wlIV walk-are 1 00 children from the Holy
Cr,oss and Saint James orphanages of the Near East Relief. They
.will be part of a picturesque. crowd ot American and French priests,
'Spanish and. Italian monks. English tourists and native country people
who will greet each other.'may your day be happy and blessed.'

'Davida. well and Rachel's 'tomb, winding up In the courtyard of the
'Church; of Nativity." " , ' :

wealth every year. It has an investment larger than all
the railroads, all the manufactories and all quarries oft the
nation. ' ,
v - If the United States is to maintain as well-balanced pros
perity there must be proper recognition of the farming in
dustry. And to observe Agricultural day will emphasize
agriculture as other projects or personal lives and services are
emphasized by other special days or weeks. iJ -
Since there is now sharp criticism on the great number
of holidays this day is not to be" a legal holiday. This day's
program might include:, A proclamation by the Chief Execu
tive of the nation and state; appropriate school exercises;
radio addresses ; chamber of commerce programs directed to
agricultural good will and service; farm community gather
ings; a'nd editorials on farm industry, dignity and progress
The observance of this day should be of real value in
stimulating respect for agriculture the nation's!, basic1 In
dustry and a step further toward; due recognition of the
social and economic importance of the farm. ; I'

;while other important factors in the national life are sub
ordinated in the country's consciousness. Industry of the
;rtytype has been glorified and properly so. However, back
of 5 the factory smoke stacks and behind the lines of Labor
day1 marchers there Is a great group whose toil and products
niake some of these industries represented possible and con
tributes to the prosperity of the country in very jarge measure.-
. V- '
, r This group is made up of men and women who operate
i the -six and one-half million farms of the United States. It
comprises, practically one-third of our population and pro-
