Christmas Season Is Time to Especially
Remember Birth of Christ Child
. uon t you just love this season,
with the Christmas cards stream
. an<^ the Sift packages ar
riving. . . the Christmas tree up
. . . goodies being cooked every
now and then. . . and the house
getting cleaned from top to bot
tom?
Christmas cards are so pret
ty, why not use them as house
decorations? Fasten them to a
small Christmas tree, or thumb
tack them around a big double
window. Fasten a wide red rib
bon over an arch and secure
around it, pinning the cards to
this.
At our house we have a Christ
mas tree rack. It is made par
ticularly for Christmas cards and
holds about a hundred of them.
It is: three sided and adequately
displays the prettiest Chhistmas
cards we receive.
As the cards arrive, if they
have a return address, clip and

• slide it into an envelope. Those
that do not have, write down in
a note book.
Keep the little notebook with
the envelope of return ad
dresses, and you'll be all set
for 1953, and won't have to
scramble for addresses again.
Remember that while you can
use a two cent stamp to send a
Christmas card, you can’t seal it,
or write a letter inside. It’s bet
ter to use a 3-cent stamp, then
if your friends have moved
it will be forwarded and if you
made a mistake on the address it
can be returned to you.
Speaking of Christmas cards,
why not buy a few extra ones
and send one to each of the shut
ins who you know?

Dear Readers of Frontier Woman:
Since I wrote before we’ve had
a new addition to our family, a
little son—Oral John—has come
to join his two sisters, Cheryl and
Beverly. The girls are delighted
over their new brother and who
isn’t when one of these little
ones arrive?
I certainly can say that I think
each and every homemaker will
be having plenty to do between
now and the Christmas season. I
for one know I have several pro
jects started that were left un-'
done because of our son putting in
his appearance.
It's a few short days until
Christmas, the time when we
should especially remember
the Christ child, the one who
now can set men free from fear
and sin, and give a peace in
one's heart which no one else
can supply.
I found a poem which I think
fits back to the time of Christ
and up to the present day. I
like it and so will pass it on to
others.
WHERE IS HOME?
“What makes a home?”
I asked my little boy,
And this is what he said,
“You, mother,
And when father comes
Our table set all shiny,
and my bed,
And, Mother, I think it’s home
Because we love each other.”
You who are old and wise,
What would you say
If you were asked the question?
Tell me, pray.
And simply as a little child,
The old wise ones can answer
nothing more.
A man, a women and a child,
Their love,
Warm as the golden hearth fire
along the floor.
A table, and a lamp for light,
Only the old, sweet fundamental
things,
And long ago I learned—
Home may be near, home may
be far,
But it is anywhere
That Love
And a few plain household
treasures are.
MRS. REUBEN REDLINGER
SAYS SANDHILL SAL
If you don’t get what you want
for Christmas, be philosophic.
You might have gotten left en
tirely, you know.
You don’t have to keep up with
the Joneses in giving. One of the
worst sins committed against
Christ’s birthday is to give be
ond our means when you might
have given sensibly and happily
and enjoyed the giving.
CHINCHILLA SQUABBLES
It seems chinchillas have mar
ital difficulties, too—at least that
is the case with two chinchillas
owned by George C. Fisher of
Bird City. Grandpa chinchilla,
Fisher said, deserted grandma
for two days and one night. Up
on his return, grandma nipped
at grandpa’s feet until he could
hardly move.
EXTRA BLOOD
Anyone with an extra gallon
of blood may qualify for mem
bership in the Red Cross gallon
club. A new gallon club at Rising
City has five members, each of
whom has donated blood eight
times to the Red Cross bloodmo
bile unit.
In Leading Role—
Guy Harris, who attends Wes
leyan university at Lincoln, por
trayed one of the leading roles in
the' play, “Smilin’ Through,”
which was held Wednesday
through Saturday, December 10
13, in the university auditorium.
