CHRISTMAS DONT'S
Don't forget your Christmas .duty;. Don't forget the old folks at home. ' Don't look a gift horse in the mouth. Don't on this day of sweet, memories forget those who have passed away. Don't leave the religious feeling behind you in church. Don't forget to send the crumbs to those who may need them. ■ .. . . Don't allow your sympathy for the poor to spend , itself m words. Don't speak of your zeal for the faith if you do not take a Catholic paper. Don't forget the words of a'Kempis : 'It is not the gift, but the will of the giver.' _ v--'7-Don't let the real significance of- the day pass your mind. Christ was born to-day; celebrate the feast in a becoming manner. Don't make your Christmas present a mere formality or obligation. The beauty .of; making a gift is to leave the recipient convinced that it is sent as an expression of friendship and love.
