CHRISTMAS GIVING

i mi; awwiv-vj r'
President Wilson's daughter is a lead
or. was organized to discourage useless
giving or the giving of useless Xmas
presents.
The spirit of Xmas giving i3 an ex
cellent thing. It is often the finding
of the holy grail. No one would
speak for the cheerless charnal house
of the heart possesed by him who
some called Scrougc and others call
ed Marlin. But Xmas giving often
degenerates into a formal exchange of
commodities, actuated only by cus
tom. Wo present articles to people
who do not care for the things wo se
lect and expect to receive in payment
something we do not prize. It vcr
tually amounts to buying ourselves
something we do not particularly dc
olrn mill nftnn cannot afford. This
exchange of commodities is often car
rim! in n irnnt extreme. So called
presents are not only exchanged by
mere acquaintances, but often by peo
ple who rather dislike each other. It
has grown to become a custom that
holds many in heartless and formal
shackles.
