    F AI-L the illusionsof childhood, I gaveup with most re-luctance those thatclustered aroundChristmas.

    The old saint whoclimbed down thechimney Into the

    fireplace ln our Bitting room andfilled our stockings on Christ-mas Eve was as ' real to me asMoses or George Washington Or mygrandfather or any other person otwhom I had heard but whom I hadnever personally met He is to mereal today^w1feTfTTnaJiL reminiscentmoods, perlfaps becauseTlM^e alwayswanted him to be real. LongVafter Irecognized all the subterfugei Vhlchwere being practiced oa me jlWf childat Christmas time, I neTerTOOmlttthem even to myself, for I was quitewilling to submit to the deceptions; Iwas made happy by all the ceremoniesand surprises.

    I have never In all my life beenaway from home at Christmas time; Ihope I never shall be. Christmas Joysare for me the moat delightful; Christ-mas memories, the most precious.Everything about our holiday prepara-tions ut home was of tho simplest

    nas," a friend said to me a few days.ago. "I don't believe It Is ever going]o be for any one again Just as It used. be."I suppose not i though there are some

    vents connected with the celebrationof Christmas, there Is the real Christ-mas which I am sure I shall never out-grow. If I Should hang up my stock-ing by th# fireplace now., I feel Just as,mre as I ever did that old Saint Nickwould get In some way before morn-ing and fill It as he used to do when

    was a child. My faith In Christmasias never waned, and my need for It.practice economy badly at any time,

    mt with the greatest ttlflenlty utChristmas time, and especially sincehe prices of my own particular varle-les of frankincense and myrrh have'

    been so affected by the economic con-!dltlons. I t Is what Is In our hearts thatmakes Christmas real. The song of
