Hunt Out the Christmas Charity to the Needy
A poem urges readers to extend Christmas generosity to hungry children, the blind boy, the weary widow, and victims of greed and crime. It contrasts grand gifts for distant places with the need for acts of kindness at home, and mentions local news items about Christmas ads and small domestic updates.
