Christmas spending splurge is

Christmas the most joyous sea-

Here are some suggestions that
will help make your holidays
go a little more smoothly:
1. Plan your Christmas spend-
ing. Make a list af all persons
included in your family gift
giving. Add other expenditures
such as cards, postage, extra
food and decorations for enter-
taining.
2. Plan the use of your time.
Watch Christmas advertisements
in local paper and decide what
you think you want and know
where to And it. You can save
time by having your gifts wrap-
ped at the store. However, don't
expect the saleslady to wrap
small purchases for you unless
the store charges for this ser-
vice. Do everything possible
ahead of time so you won't have
a big rush at the last.
3. Watch your diet. Plan bal-
anced meals for your family.
Skipping meals and over in-
dulging in Christmas "goodies"
lowers resistance to colds.
Something new on the market
is the black bottom pans. The
black bottom pans absorb heat
faster than pans with light, re-

flective surfaces. When used for
cake baking, the oven tempera-
tures may be lowered 15 degrees
and the time shortened about
five minutes. However, the
homemaker should consider that
she will have to remember to
change the cooking time and
temperature of all her recipes
and the pans are still expensive.

BY DORIS JONES
It's beginning to look a lot
like Christmas around Saint Jo.
The lights are stretched across
the streets downtown. The store
windows have beautiful dis-
plays. We received our first card
Tuesday and on it was a picture
of our beautiful little friend,
Diane Price. In front of the gro-
cery stores are pine trees. Even
the faces of our people have
taken on their holiday look. The
children look excited; the young
parents look tired but happy; the
men look worried about paying
all the bills and the older people
look sentimental.
Christmas is a happy time for
all of us who are fortunate
to be healthy enough and to
have our loved ones with us, but
there are many in our town who
will be sick and lonely on
Christmas. These are the people
who can make our Christmas
most joyous; for to remember
these people with gifts, baked
goods, cards, visits and Christ-
mas carols will show the true
spirit of Christmas.
Christmas is not a time to
"get." It is a time to give. Since
Christmas is really an obser-
vance of the birthday of our
Saviour, isn't it reasonable to
assume that we should use his
qualities in observing this sea-
son. Surely peace, good will,
love, patience, brotherly kind-
ness and gentleness are needed
if we are to show the Spirit of
Christmas.
It is easy to forget our Christ-
like qualities in the hustle of
cleaning, baking, shopping, dec-
orating and party-going. When
we are bumped in the stores,
our candy is sticky, our new
dress gets something spilled on
it, the company comes before
everything is ready and we want
to "go to pieces," remember that
all of these things can be remed-
ied. but unkind words and im-
patience can never be undone.
To get the greatest joy of the
season, we must become like the
One whose birthday we are
celebrating.

CARD OF THANKS
For the second time within t
few months I want to exprsss
my sincere appreciation to the
many friends who expressed
their concern and friendliness by
their visits, cards of good wishes,
beautiful flowers and prayers
during my most recent illness.
It is gratifying to feel that our
friends continue to be friends.
All have been so very good to
my family and me during the
illness that I have experienced.
Again I want to assure each one
how very thankful I am for such
wonderful consideration. I know
too "A Higher Power" had
much to do with my return home
from this last illness, therefore
I am blessed in many ways.
Helen and my family wish to
join me again in saying "Thanks
Again" for so much "Goodness"
from friends.
