She knows about all these practical things--and much more. She knows the deeper lessons of life. She knows that right is right and Holy wrong is wrong--and that right is always best. Bible The girl who is blessed with a good mother and a good grandmother, and is smart enough to learn from them, can practically chart her own happiness and build a life that is a blessing to mankind and the world. Grandmother knows that spiritual things are far more important than material things.

She knows that God rules in the kingdom of men, that the Church is His messenger, and that faith is man's hope of salvation. Support Your Church THE CITIZENS NATIONAL TRUST CO.

To others, believing is sceing. Some 'carn to see through their very sensitive fingers.

A great many more learn to see through their hearts. Countless others see clearly through faith. Many of us see truth in our dreams. Some chosen few see revealing visions; but there are none SO blind as those who will not see -THE AUTHOR. CHAPTER SIX 00 let's get around to this fact of really seeing Santa Claus, in the flesh.

When I was a very, very little boy I never did see Santa Claus directly. The Sandman used to get there first, every year, and I'd be sound asleep when Santa arrived; but I always saw him in my dreams- I'll bet' you do, too. if you are kind of little. After I grew a bit bigger, Santa was busier every year- he had to hurry, faster and faster. When I asked Mother about this, she told me that little eyes couldn't usually see fast enough to get a really good look at Santa; but that I could see his reflection in her eyes, or in Father's I did see the reflections of Santa in both their eyes many times.

What's all this reflection bustness? Well, if you will go and look straight into a mirror, night now, I'll show you. Are you ready? You can see quite a few things that are back of you, can't you? Everybody knows that you can't see anything that's right behind your back; but you are doing it right now. You are looking at the reflection. In fact you have never really seen yourself; but you have seen your own reflection in a mirror many times. YOU HAVE often seen the reI flection of a passing automobile in a window or mirror; but, by the time you turned around, it was out of sight.

You know wat was there, or you couldn't have seen it, and autos can't travel one-skintillionth as fast as Santa does. There 1S one more thing you should remember as you look for him. Santa, himself, only comes around one day each year. He is so very, very busy--when that day comes -that he has to zzzip right down one chimney; and then-fast like 'lectric-zzzip right back up, so fast that the very same zzzip carries him through the door of the next apartment. So, you see, Santa Claus doesn't have the time to waste any zzzips.

just waiting for folk to see him 8i That's 'shy you have to looking for him at exactly the right time, Local, Area Wills Filed for Probate Tor you may have to wait another whole year. You might try looking real hard for Santa this year; but, if you happen to miss him, please don't give up hoping. Go right ahead and try harder next year; and please don't ever give up trying. You will never find true happiness until you do get to see him. Reflections grow older and slow down after a while, so that anywho really wants to see body, Santa Claus can see him many times.

So I promise you, here and now, that if you keep right on hoping and trying, you will see his reflections thousands of timesafter you've had a chance to grow some more, and your eyes get faster. One good way to train your eyes is to be thoughtful to other people meet and live with. You will you also gain much happiness by going out of your way to do little acts of kindness for others. IF YOU START doing little acts Santa Claus-whether you can of graciousness daily, you will soon make a habit of such deeds, and own life will start filling with your wonderful things you never dreamed would be possible. Soon will receive se much joy and you happiness from your own generous acts that you will have no room inside you for personal cares and worries Another good way to train your eyes 15 to stop looking for faults in others If you see only the good things in those you meet, and learn to overlook their petty errors, you will find new friends wherever you go and this circle will widen every day of your life.

You will see Santa Claus many times in the process of building such friendships. Distributed by King Features Syndicate register wills. The balance, consisting of $500 in personal property, goes to Donald C. and Raymond H. Keifrider, sons.

or not-is always there! After you reach maturity you see Santa Claus quite often, in the most unusual places. the Christmas season you see Santa in little pug noses, tightly against shining windows; in the smiles of old ladies, struggling along huge baskets and bundles; in glowing cheeks and sparkling of postmen, on their busy and in the ruddy countenances of tired policemen, helping old folk across busy and crowded streets. YOU SEE Santa Claus the sparkling but tired eyes of department store clerks; in the anxious eyes of youngsters, riding downtown with busy mothers; in the cheery expression of busy bus starters and busier drivers; and even in the eager eyes of a panhandler, turned ambitious enough to peddle some cheap paper flowers, in order to get a years-late Christmas card started on its way -for sure--this year. Santa Claus is reflected from high steeples, where carillons and chimes ring out their concordant messages of hope for Peace on Earth, to All Men of Good Willto all who will take heed. Santa Claus is reflected from shining coins and crisp bills, thoughtfully tossed into Salvation Army kettles and chimneys--to aid the unfortunate and the needy; from happy crowds, jostling each other goodnaturedly -on their ways to or from making life just a little bit sweeter for somebody else; and from the millions thoughtful little extra things, which folk always do more ciously at Christmastime.
