The custom of giit-giving at Christmas isn't what makes the sea- son a merry one. Its background, setting of old, familiar carols sung in the churches and on the streets: decorating the tree, window lights glowing in the darkness, the mighty preparations for the big dinner, and the feeling of good will towards all AUNT MIN SEZ: men that steals into everyones heart, But gift-giving is an important part of Christmas, nevertheless. Ex- is in itself an ex- pression of good will. The custom you will recall, began on the first Christmas, when the wise Men brought gifts to the manager where the newborn Christ Child lay. And it continues to this day as an ex- pression of good will among fellow men. Christmas = g'fts, whatever they may be bring double pleasure, first to him who gives, and then to him who reccives. But we wonder how many if us take full advantage of the opportunity the Christmas sea- son provides for making others happy? We are thinking now of the men. We know the sort of gifts they like, We wish we could tell their wives and families what these fellows want, for example, that Tom needs a new hunting coat, but we suspect that his wife will present him with another wine colored dressing gown to replace the hide- ous thing that now hangs in the dark resesses of his closet. We know that Hugh would like a new bait casting reel; that Len, the trout fisherman, hankers for a pair o waders. Tom and the rest of our friends will have a merry christmas this year, winecolored dressing gowns notw.thstanding. But since we know what will make these fellows happy it’s logical to suppose that the same would hold for all the other sports- men whom we know. The fellows who fish and hunt and tramp th: woods with us. Anl let's not forget the young- sters, either. They like to hunt and fish as much as their seniors, and any small hoy’s eyes will brighter if he finds a fly rod or creel or new bait cast:ng reel under the tree with his tag on it. So we're hoping that Tom and Len and the rest of you will leave this copy open to this page, anc cither suggest to your wife that she read it, or put it where she can’t miss it. Because here’s a message for you wives of sportsmen—and al! others who will go Christmas shop- ping for outdoorsmen this year: To make this Christmas ever merrier, pass up the other thing: and give he-man gifts tothe sports men on your list. If they won't tell you what they'd like their friend: will. Or ask the sporting gocds dealer down the street—he knows what sportsmen want. You'll have a merrier Christmas yourself for do- ing it. Speaking of the “Star §panglec Banner” reminds us of “Old Glory,” the dearest and most precious flag of all, and calls to the writer's mind the way some of our local patriots abuse the flag by leaving it hang out-doors over night. More care should be taken to respect the flag! atl Cr Here's to American, the Land of the Free, The land where my mother gave birth to me. God Grant that it may remain the Land of The Free, With justice and Liberty, for you and for me! Tat TTT The “black-out phase now being brought before the people is cer- tainly causing some funny situa- ‘tions to arise, especially since we know of several persons who asked if they would condugt the ame dur- ing the day.
