Christmas Eve, a Wonderful, Dramatic Night of Anticipation The Christmas Eve festivities in the homes, in the churches and in all the happy places of the Christian world are the lighter side and the climax of the preparations that are made for the final and solemn acts of faith of the holy season. The rising crescendo of the Christmas season comes to its evening of fellowship and indispensable to its full enjoyment. Children look forward to it breathlessly, and find wonderful enrichment in the associations and companionships of home and family in its observance, and cherish the memories of it all their days. Christmas Eve is tinsel, and light and the merry bedlam of people come together in brotherhood and love. It is a bringing together of friends, and of strangers in marvelous fellowship. The shining tree in the living room, the invitation of the mistletoe, the rollicking fun of youngsters with all of their lives before them, and the treasured hours of men and women heavy with the burden of their years—all these things and infinitely more, constitute the setting of the night before Christmas, and give it great beauty. Therising crescendo of the Christmas season comes to its stirring peak of merriment on this dramatic night of anticipation. While the dawn of the holy day is awaited, there is the pleasure of being with those who are loved, and the deep satisfaction of giving and receiving, and the profound reward of sharing. Giant trees lift their green spires and brilliant baubles to the lofty places of the city, and boys and girls look in wonderment upon them. Awed faces are pressed against window panes, and hearts beat faster in contemplation of what riches the great tomorrow will bring—but the richest things of all will be the smiles exchanged and the wholesome assurances given of respect and affection. The confusion and irritations of Christmas preparations are over when the night before the day of the Savior's birth is given over to full enjoyment. Problems and cares are not burdens any more. Compassion and tolerance and forgiveness are more easily expressed. Patience and understanding and appreciation are freely given. The thrill and the beauty of an occasion which promises the eventual and eternal peace of the world have fullest meaning where the glow and the warmth of the Christmas festival reaches therichest of its happy moments, in the lights and under the shelter of the home made glorious by the fulfillment of the holiday tradition. After the gifts are unwrapped, and the joyful disarray is complete, and grateful eyes have spoken silently the words of love and need no better expression, the full wonder of Christmas Eve settles upon young and old alike, and all are ready for the day of faith and of prayer than impends. The happy things and hours and scenes of Christmas Eve are not the mere frills of this ancient festival, but a substantial and vital part of the blessed Christmas tradition.

Brown for moving promptly in appointing Earl Lee Kelly of Redding and Sacramento to the eState Fair Board. It speaks well for his administration that he has stepped across party lines again to name a Republican. It is an appointment based on merit and one which the governor can make in full confidence since Kelly is a proved quality. He filled the same post with excellent judgment, enterprise and ability in the past. In replacing H. C. (Pat) Maginn with a strong replacement like Earl Kelly, Gov. Brown has acted in the best interests of the California State Fair, insuring strong support for every move with which to improve the fair. Open Letter to a Teenager Judge Philip B. Gilliam, nationally known juvenile court judge of Denver has written the following letter to a teenager: "Always we hear the plaintive cry of the teenager: 'What can we do? Where can we go?' The answer is 'GO HOME!' Hang the storm windows, paint the woodwork. Rake the leaves, mow the lawn, shovel the walk. Wash the car, learn to cook, scrub the floors. Repair the sink, build a boat, get a job. Help the minister, priest, or rabbi, the Red Cross, the Salvation Army. Visit the sick, assist the poor, study your lessons. And then when you are through—and not too tired—read a book. Your parents do not owe you entertainment. Your city or village does not owe you recreational facilities. The world does not owe you a living. You owe the world something. You owe your time and energy and your talents so that no one will be at war or in poverty, or sick or lonely again. In plain simple words: Grow up; quit being a cry baby. Get out of your dream world and develop a backbone, not a wishbone, and start acting like a man or lady. You're supposed to be mature enough to accept some of the responsibility your parents have carried for years. They have IN THE DAYS OF LONG AGO From the Files of The Anaheim Gazette by MRS.
