THE CHRISTMAS STAR You appeared in the East, to Wise Men traveling afar, Oh, thou noble, golden Christmas Star. You came to proclaim a Saviofs hirth While angel choirs sang, rejoicing, to all the earth. You smiled to the Shepherds, who, their flocks hringing, Saw and rejoiced and went their way singing. Shine, nohle Star in the nightfhlue skies, Leading all to where the Bahy lies. --Florence Poslzard. Page -Ji

cfs KGHE 'GALISMAN Service ERVICIE is the spirit that animates men and women everywhere who know that others depend upon them. Back of every real achievement has heen that spirit of service' that desire to lighten loads, or make hrighter. happier and more heautiful the lives of others. A man may he rich or poor, courted or ignored. hut if he does things which make for progress. he is a success. he serves. Usefulness to others is the real standard of success. Great puhlic utilities have all heen the outcome of needs met hy men and women desiring to serve. Faith in the usefulness of the accomplishments has kept them toiling willingly. All husiness and professional pursuits depend for success upon the mcasure of their service to others. Giving the world hetter material. hetier measure. hetter oppor' tunities, is true service. The world seeks those who desire to serve. Money, influence, honor, and power may follovt, hut the attendant joy in having accomplished that which is of henefit to others is compensation enough to those who have that hurning urge to serve. - 'Frances Fisher. Indian Legend ANY moons ago in the land of many ma-tafokfkas or snowflakes, a heautiful Indian maiden named Ivfaftah, lived in a great forest with her people. Maftah loved the forest with its soft carpet of pine needles. She loved to hear the pines whisper to the wind and see the hirds flutter among the green hranehes. In the spring a great variety of wild flowers made a heautiful trimming on the forest floor. Maftah would sit for hours hy the sparkling hrook that danced over mosscovered stones, and think of all the heautiful things around her. She would wander through the forest and play with tiny hear cuhs. who had just awakened from their long winter sleep. In the autumn she would help the squirrels stoi'e food for the winter hy gathering nuts and placing them in small piles on the ground. The wild inhahitants of the forest never feared Maftah. They lovcd her and knew she would not harm them, Une dewy morning Maftah wandered through the forest to the great mountain. Huge houlders. which had rolled from the snowy heights, were piled high at the edge of the forest, Maftah was looking to see if she could find a new kind of flower among these great rocks. She was walking along at the very top, when suddenly her foot slipped. She fell many thousands of feet and was killed. Then was a mournful time for the wild inhahitants of the forest. The next summer as the Indians were getting water from the tiny hrooklet, one of the young warriors spied a heautiiul pink flower growing in the water. Look, he cried, it is a token of friendship to Maftah from her heloved flowers. Martha Kuppelei, Page 14
