Greeting.
celt, nor nil Hie legions of ugly
hunum passions that ussnll the heart,
nor rancor between Individuals, nor
national lust for power, can extin
guish It. They may dim but they cun
not quench the spark In the heart of
man which Impels him, ns every wan
ing year brings the Ohrlstmus, to try
to make a few of Ids fellowmen a lit
tle happier. Often It Is by the method
of the gift, perhaps something that
costs hundreds of dollars, maybe only
a penny card bearing an Inscription
of good cheer. Frequently It is some
thing Intangible, the whole-souled
word of greeting to the old ludy In
a shawl who sells you your paper,
or the smlh of comradeship which you
give the conductor who punches your
ticket, or the elevator mHn who takes
you up to your office (fellow workers
all). It Is not giving that counts, not
the bestowal of something valued In
dollars and cenjs, the transference of
something from your hand to anoth
er's. That Is a purely mechanical
process, which muy or may not cre
ate happluess. No; It Is the longing
to give, the desire to be the cause of
another’s happluess. #
To wish to help others Is the oldest
passion In the world—even a little
older than the Impulse to overcome
others. And It Is the deathless pas
sion as well. It needs no Christmas
day to keep It alight, but as long as
Christmas continues to provide fuel to
make the flame of good fellowship
burn brighter, that day will continue
to be the richest 24 hours Jn all the
year.
