WHAT
ABOUT
AFTER CHRISTMAS?
What happens the day after Christmas?
Is the spirit of Christmas spent” in lavish preparation and antici
pation, enjoyed but briefly, then thrown aside with the wrapping
paper and colored ribbon?
What happens the day after Christmas?
Does one breathe a deep sigh and inwardly say, *Tm glad that
it’s over for another year”?
If this happens, then certainly we are not “keeping the Christ
mas.” The Spirit of Christmas is superficial. Our Christmas symbols
and ornaments, many of them pagan in their origin, are only deco
rative trappings for creating a festive spirit.

SECTION ^ C—PAGE ONE
It Is Real
But Christmas is not superficial. Christmas is READ. And so
must observance of the holiday be REAL, and not the mere matter of
observing customs and practices as a matter of conformity.
The glitter is gone from evergreens and holly wreaths on the day
after Christmas. The tree suddenly becomes old and drops its needles
upon the carpet. No longer does the bright figure of Santa adorn the
mantle or doorway; it simply hangs there, bereft of glamour and
stirring little anticipation.
It Has Meaning
Unless we have “kept the Christmas” in preparations for, and
observance of Christmas Day, then we have observed a meaningless
holiday.
This year, let us keep the Christmas in a spirit that will keep the
profound meaning of the holiday deep in our hearts for the remainder
of the days after Christmas.
As we observe the Christmas, we must find time to meditate upon
the great reality—that upon this day Christ tfas bom, bringing to all
mankind the promise of eternal salvation. This is the message of
Christmas and the secret to the successful keeping of Christmas for
ever and ever.
