THIS WEEK
In Religion and Thought
ROBERT I*. MOODY
“Merry Christmr '"
This has (become a trite ex
pression but its true meaning has
weight. For (thoi^iandg of pc|>
plo this Christmas pill not he
nurry because of war or financial
si'. For three, Christmas will
be a good one :.f they have health
and salvation. They may not be
destitute of many things, but if
the love of the Babe of Bethlehem
is in their hearts, they have the
true Cristinas spirit.
For those who may he able to
give a few presents, remember
that the price vs not the most
Inportunt factor. 1 ,
“The gift without the giver is
l are.” We must remember those
less fortunate than we are and
share our happiness with them.
Tho Wise Men brought gifts
of gold, frankincense and myrrt.h.
Wo may not be able to give eith
er one of these to our Ix»rd or
fellowmen, hut we may decide in
the sentiment of the childhood
verse:
“What shall I give him (them)
poor as I am?
If 1 were a shepherd, I’d give
Him (them) a lamb;
If I were a Wi«e Man, I’d do
my part,
Yet what shall I give Him
(them)?—Give my Heart.”

What a joy to Ret relief from a cough due to

Black or Menthol, 5f. Both taste delicious.
Smith Bros. Cough Drops are the

^I*ir MARK
caucc you know that night of all |
night' was the “b g night” even j
to his church known as White
Gift service night and welk it
deseitved its name of "White
Gift” because every thing was
white but a few. And the giv
ing, well from the looks cf the
envelope that went into the
money container. I say the giv
ing wasn't bad. About twenty or
more ushers ,all un formed and
everything one hundred percent
from the different locals headed
by some of the president* came
to render what ever services I
they could to make the night one
to bo remembered by some act
done by them.
I
That 1 feel safe in saying they
did all of that, when they played
the r part so well in the “Ushers
Casket Possesion” was a ,scene
within itself long to be i mem
') red. Now Ushers, 1 ant sure
Mr, Saunders didn’t mean, or
think it that way. The reason he
wanted you to keen one hand be
hind you while you were carrying
the baskets, just a little precau-1
tionaiy urea sure you know. I told !
him I could vouch for all of you
and you believed in Santa Claus.
Mr. Herbert reports a very suc
cessful pre-Mass Tea of last
Sunday. Wish to thank all who
helped to make it a success.
Zion's local held it election of
officers last Sunday. Among
those elected were: Mrs. Todd,
reelected president; Mr. W vi
sions, treasurer; Mrs. Caldwell,
secretary. Jack Hall, assistant;
Claude Williams, chaplin. Other
off.cers will be appointed by the
president at the next regular
meeting.
Just heai1 w,e would like to of
fer a prayer for our “shut-ins"
and those who haven’t been able
to attend our meeting. We are
hoping to fi.ee them out soon. We
are all looking forward to the
outcome of the old fashion box
lunch spread. All those who are
planning on coming out. Well
bring your pastor, his wife and
a friend or two and lets eat amt
b,o merry once again.
Glad to see so many Ushers
on the job is it because Santa

Carrying its work relief polic
ies light into the Christmas sea
n. the Goodwill Industries here
in Omaha feel that you, like
many other Omaha citizens, be
lieve that thet best way to help
people who are in need is to help
them help themselves, by giving
“Not Charity, but A Chance.”
This policy you w:ll agree, he'ps
‘‘'indies to maintain their mor
ale.
At the approach of Chri«hms
thin is doully import ant, f-r mo«t
parents would much rather pur

inm THEIR OWN EARNINGS
than to have them come as gifts
t‘rom char.table groups. There
fore, we are using this medium
to inform people who are interest
ed in this type of program to aid
them in building up n permanent
Revolving Fund to be used by
th'i in&titut’cn in order to provide
creative employment for n(»• ’
end handicapped people at the
Christmas tin:,- and during dull
seasons of the year. Goodwill a
grees to keep this a8 a perman
