There is a difference as wide and everlasting as eternity between the significance o f Christ mas Day, and all other days of the year, whether they are legal holi days, birthdays, or wedding anni versaries. What make* thia differenca? It is what we feel, think and remember about every Christmas Day we have ever had aa far back as we have any recollection, a'l rolled into one— this one. It is a day for remem bering— putting happy memories in to other lives through our gifts. Perhaps this is the reason we call Ohristmas gifts remembrances. On this day creed and greed are for gotten. We are prone to look backward on Christmai Day. Every gift, song> toy, food aroma, recalls like mem | ories of othte Christmases. Strange ' how other days of cur early live» are blurred, but our Christmases Hand bravely out in the foreground of our memories. We do not think the thoughts of grown-ups when we live over the joy o f aome o f those distant Christ mas Days. We become children a- gain in memory as we scamper from room to room showing our gifts to parents, aunts, uncles, cou sins, ami neighbor*. If we could read grandmother's thoughts as she watches little Mary playing with her doll, they would be of another child, the little grand mother herself, holding her Christ mas doll. Yes, many, many thinga that hap pened on ChristaM» Days ot our childhood come back to us, recalled by a sound or song on the present Christmas Day we are celebrating Christmas carols call to mind one night long ago when we sang tnem out under the frosty stars. The souna o f wheels crunching hard snow re call the Christmas Day the aunts, uncles, and cousins drove up in their big bob sled. What a day! What a glorious time we had! No one was impatient, although we were very boisterous. So much seemed to be overlooked that Christmas Day that ordinarily called for correction. No doubt we were corrected on a later day, but that we do not remember. We distinctly remember the first Christmas we celebrated when we thought there was no Santa Claus. We felt that Christmas would nev er be quite the same again, but we soon found we had outgrown the idea of Santa, anyway. In fact, we had made ourselves believe in San ta Claus, even though his voice and laugh sounded so like our father's. Besides, there were so many Sanias — long, lean ones in store windows; short fat ones in churches— we were glad it was all over. Now we could stay up, help decorate the tree, fill the stockings, munch candy and nuts, just as soon as the children went to bed. What girl does not live over the memory of a certain wonderful Christmas when her boy friend came with his gift ? That memory can never be effaced, no matter how many other times a similar thing harppens. No matter who or where the boy is rtow, the memory stays on and adds its part to our happy Christmases. We wish you all a Happy, Happy Christmas Day, desr friends, to add to your other Happy Christmas memories.
