THOUGHT FOR THE DAY—
Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch
as ye have done it unto one of the
least of these my brethren, ye have
done it unto me. (Matthew 25:40.)
Read Matthew 25:34-46.
While walking through the gar-
den surrounding the Home for Aged
Men at Sitka, Alaska, I met a talk-
ative “sourdough,” who had gone,
years ago, to Alaska to seek for
gold. He related his experience.
“In those gold-rush days, we
lived in the mountains back of
Skagway, with no store within
miles and paths impassable in the
wintertime. We were neighbors.
When baking bread, we always set
aside a small amount of dough to
take over the trail to the nearest
neighbor. This was the precious
leaven each family needed in order
to have bread. And when the
womenfolk stirred up the sponge,
that is, dough raised with yeast,
they, too, remembered. In an emp-
ty can a handful was put aside and
sent to the next cabin. Failure to
pass on some of the leaven classed
one as a very poor neighbor. So
we early settlers,” he “concluded,
“were dubbed ‘sourdoughs’! It
meant that we were good neigh-
bors.”
. Are we Christians
with our neighbors ?

LIGHTING
Here's a tip from General Elec-
tric holiday lighting specialists
which youll want to keep in mind
when putting up
your outdoor
lighted decora-
tions.
» Lighted strings
of bulbs will be
more effective if
\ spaced close to-
gether. One sim-
ple way to accom-
plish this is to lay
three strings on
the ground and
tape: together as
shown in the
drawing at the
right. Notice how
by staggering the
sockets they can be arranged about
six inches apart instead of the
usual 18 inches. When strings are
taped together they may be hung
in the usual manner.

When choosing toys for young-
sters don’t overlook the magic of
the lighted ones which are now
available. Tiny bulbs no larger than
