For personal reply send self addressed, tamped envelope.) (The Literary Service Bureau) Dear Reader: This is Christmas season. Glorious is the event we com. memorate. It concerns all peoples. But, somehow, the original purpose has been changed. This sacred season is used as a time for high-jacking, carousing, debauchery This is a shame ful perverson! It is also a most des tructive practice. To help you, young readers, I am turning aside from the usual line to give a little advice. Don’t give over to excesses. During the season many will indulge in drink. There will be accidents and crimes followng. Over, eating and loss of rest will leave the bodily strength depleted. Other un fortunates results will follow the us ual debaucheries. To avoid these after results I urge you, my children, to be sober; be sane; be conservative; avoid excesses of all kinds; and come through the Yuletide with body strong and conscience clear. Here’s yo>urs for a Merry Christmas and a safe and sane celebration.—Maxie Miller. P. S.—Maxie Miller would apprec iate a line or two from any of the readers who have been helped, and would appreciate any advice or sug gestion looking toward greater help fulness. M. M.
