weak. Jiggs was relating in his
column how the many people
,of Apalachicola were bragging
Son how nice Port St. Joe looked
with their many light up and
wondered why Apalachicola
couldn't look that good. (Jiggs
stated dhat all this wondering
took place by people who were
on their way to and from Pan-
aina City to do their Christmas
shopping) Editor Jiggs then
proceeded to ask why those peo-
ple hadn't stopped in Port St.
Joe to do their shopping then,
if they thought the lights so
pretty.
He then told the people that
Apalachicola COULD have as
pretty decorations as Port St. Joe
if those same people had done I
their shopping in Apalachicola.
This out-of-town shopping sit-
uation is improving to a certain
extent in Port St. Joe because the
merchants are waking up to the
fact that they have to offer some-
thing in the way of merchandise

in order to hold trade here. This
they are doing. Secondly, they
are beginning to realize the ne-
cessity of telling the people what
they have and how cheap it is
in price by constructive adver-
tising. With a little more effort
on the part of the mercahnts and
a little more cooperation on the
part of the shoppers, more of a
trade-at-home spirit will devel-
op. After all, it is a known fact
that the advertising stores in
Panama City are the ones draw-
ing the local and out-of-town
trade.

Our friend Joe Malpas of

Many centuries ago, in far-away Judea, a little child
was borp to humble parents. Its cradle was a .manger.
Its surroundings were poor and unsightly. Sympathetic
village women must have ministered to the needs of the
mother.
But a brilliant new star shone above this humble birth-
place, and those whose ears were attuned to the infinite
heard an angel chorus singing "Glory to God in the high.
est and on earth peace, good will toward menl"
S It was the birthday of the Saviour.
This story has been told often, but it loses notle of its
charm in the telling. It grips men today as does no other
human saga. For the birth at Bethlehem turned a new
page in world history and gave new hope to mankind.
Throughout the civilized world today people are singing
Christmas carols and repeating the drama of the Saviour's
birth. Some day, when His spirit triumphs, men will
turn from war and strife to the peace that comes from
God.

THE CHURCH FOR ALL .
ALL FOR THE CHURCH
The Church is the greatest fac-
tor on earth for the building of
character and good citizenship. It
is a storehouse of spiritual values.
Without a strong Church, neither
democracy nor civilization can
survive. There are four sound
reasons why every person should
attend services regularly and sup-
port the Church. They are: (1)
For his own sake. (2) For his
children's sake. (3) For the sake
of his community and nation. (4)
For the sake of the Church itself,
which needs his moral and ma-
terial support. Plan to go to
church regularly and read your
Bible daily.
