OUR GREETING
AND WISH
l^ ree wis€ mcn *ode on diat ^ rst Christ-
I JK j i j maa 10 find the manger-cradled Babe o f Bethle-
hem, they bore gifts on their saddle bows; gifts
of gold, frankincense and myrrh. 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.
