The world is or should be full of joy at this time, for the Chtisttnas
season is upon us. This is the time ol all the year when we shod I feel
happy and light hearted, not in a vulgar or hilarious way, but in a man
ner. true to the thoughts and character of noble people.
At Christinas lime we remember our friends, some of them with costly
gifts. In our eagerness to do this we sometimes forget the real Christmas
spirit, which is to administer to the wants and needs of the needy, rather
than to give costly gifts to those who may have plenty.
The angel of the Lord who announced the “Good tidings of great
joy” went first to the poor shepherds who were keeping watch over their
Hocks by night, for it was they who were tile needy. TJien he said: “Be
hold I bring you good tidings cl great joy!” and the shepherds gladly re
ceived it.
Then there was the heavenly host praising God and saying: ‘‘Glory

Good Tidings of Great Joy
NUMBER 62
True to the Christinas spirit a
arge number of the Bandon business
louses have decorated their show
windows in a most artistic manner
and shows the enterprise of these
firms. It might be added that the
Christinas shopping business has
been very brisk and there were never
better stocks of goods to lie found
any where than in Bandon. Die
R ecorder has been cognizant of
this fact and consequently, as all en
terprising papers do, this paper has
urged people to do their Christmas'
buying in their home town, and peo
ple have responded to the extent
that both merchants and patrons arc
happy over the result, and many, ex
pressions of appreciation for the R e
corder ’ s untiring campaign along
this line have been received.
We, however, take no credit on
ourselves for this work, as any paper
that is awake to its opportunities
and has the interest of its town at
heart, will urge the patronizing of
home industry.
Basket Ball Tonight.
Remember the basket ball games
at Oriental Hall tonight between the
lioys’ and girls' teams of the Bandon
and Coquille high schools. Both
games will be good ones ind will be
played with vim from start to finish.
