And so the spirit of Christmas giving crept into the world’s heart. The injunction was to go into the highways and byways and seek out the poor and distressed, the humble and afflicted, the ragged children and the out casts and the aged, and in the name of Him who was born on Christmas day, carry some sunshine into their lives. Give unto the poor and afflicted and your hearts shall glow with that peace which passeth understanding. The two dominant characteristics of the Christmas season are kindness,expressed by good will toward men, and the inward joy wrought by kind acts, and sug gested by pence on earth. “ The earth has grown old with its burden of care, but at Christmas it always is young,” and with each recurring Yuletide we like to think of the spiritual blessings brought to the children of men on that first Christmas. O ur greeting to you is one of kindness in return for the good will you have displayed toward us. O ur wish is that you may be filled with the fresh, clean joys of the season and receive a liberal endowment of that spirit which at this time rises like a mighty flood over world.
