The Wonderful
Hospitality of the Poor
to Each Other
these Christmas Days is beautiful to see, when,
moved by the spirit of friendliness in the air,
they divide their meals with the poorer ones
and share with an incoming immigrant their
last handfuls of meal, potatoes and bread.
If we only had a neighborly world and
knew for sure that it was more blessed to give
than to receive, what a wonderful Christmas
1920 would be!
The unnoticed or perhaps careless
wastages of our homes would be gratefully
accepted in the little back streets and light up.
a dreary, lonely day for some who feel that
they have been forgotten.
Your priest or pastor or the Church
nearby you would gladly be your servant in
distributions.

Antique Hooked
Rugs for
Colonial Rooms
They were made many years
ago, by New England women
in their own homes, and made
with but one object in view
that of covering the floors as
beautifully as possible. Such
work belongs wholly to a gen
eration which has passed away.
Each piece was made from ma
terials prepared by the maker
she even gathered the materials
for the dyes; and each expressed
.that maker's individuality: no
two rugs are ever alike. Noth
ing could be more effective in
Colonial rooms. And, like all
antiquos, their value is likely to
increase as time goes on.
The finest is 85x77 inches and
has a diamond block center in
red, gray, green and blue: the
background is tan and black,
with a floral border; and the
price is $000.
The smallest is 18x41 inches,
has a brown and gray border, a
bine'- "nter with floral design,
price $30.
The other rugs come between
these two extremes in regard to
both sizes and prices.
