And astride jeweled trappings came the titled nobility. All followed the Three Wise Men who followed the star that lighted the manger where the infant Jesus lay. All brought Him gifts: each according to his means. Frank-in- cense and myrrh. Vessels of precious metal and first born lambs. Wrappings of fine fabrics and endless words of wisdom. But the greatest of all gifts bestowed upon Him was a birthright given Him by the God of whom He was begotten—the gift of a noble mind and a pure heart, which were to make Him the greatest student, teacher and lov er of mankind to ever walk the earth! For through His observation and instruction He gained a Faith which followed Him to the cross, and which lives on in all who be lieve in Him, until today as for all time! As we observe the date of His birth this De cember 25th, 1943, let us remember too that the spirit of His teaching is one of love, tolerance and gentleness. He loved all colors, all nationalities, all creeds of man. He sought not to fill their hearts with fear—but with love. And none can justly claim to be one of His faithful followers who looks upon his fellows with other than devotion. Such a war as we fight today—to strengthen and perpetuate democracy around all the world is sure of His blessing. For He taught that all mankind must unite in brotherly love to achieve PEACE ON EARTH. —Contributed
