The Founder
Christmas Memery
The Christmas spirit is ringing the deer bell of
every heart, as a signal that it is the time te play the
"Just be Glad" game of Pollyanna, who began te play
it as a little child and played it through the years of
beautiful womanhood without ever growing old.
There is truly such a thing as keeping the,heart
nnwrinkled. It is by being hopeful, cheerful, kindly,
reverent and thankful.
The small boy who described memory as "the
thing you forget with" was only a small boy.
A full-grown man knows hew te remember and
whom te remember.
