The Christmas Idea

BETWEEN now and the twenty-fifth of December, millions of people will give much time and thought to this great annual festival. The occasion will be especially marked by feasting and the giving of gifts, both of which too often cause regrets on the part of participants. True, many sensible persons receive a genuine blessing at this time, by making others happy in ministering to their needs.
This is a reduced facsimile of the December “Signs Monthly” cover. It will appear in two colors; admired by all who have seen it.
“How Will You Spend Christmas?” is the title of an excellent one-page article by M. C. Wilcox in the December Signs of the Times Monthly. One page only, but every sentence is fraught with interesting and helpful thought.
“The Origin of Christmas;” “True Greatness—A Lesson for Christmas;” “The Babe of Bethlehem;” “The Nativity of Christ: Its Lessons,” are titles of other contributions bearing on the Christmas idea, and appearing in this issue.
In view of the fact that everybody is thinking of these things, don’t you think, dear friends, that an exceptional opportunity is thus afforded to get the truth before the people by means of this excellent number of the magazine? Do you not feel impressed to respond to this suggestion and have a part in this good work?
Here are a few of the other good things to be found in the Christmas number: Current Topics, which have a bearing on fulfilling prophecy: “Pentecost,” by Mrs. E. G. White; “Struggle for Religious Liberty in the Western World;” “The Day and Purpose of the Sabbath;” “World Building” (Creation or Evolution); “Divine Healing;” Bible Reading on Temperance, a story.
We furnish helps free. Send a trial order through your tract society, or to the Signs of the Times, Mountain View, Cal. Twenty-five copies will cost you $1; you sell them for $2.50.
“The Signs does bring people into the truth.”
