# Our American Holidays - Christmas/The Three Kings

THE THREE KINGS
HENRY WADSWORTH LONGFELLOW
Three Kings came riding from far away,
 Melchior and Caspar and Baltasar;
Three Wise Men out of the East were they, And they traveled by night and they slept by day,
 For their guide was a beautiful, wonderful star.
The star was so beautiful, large and clear,
 That all the other stars of the sky
Became a white mist in the atmosphere;
And by this they knew that the coming was near
 Of the Prince foretold in the prophecy.
Three caskets they bore on their saddle-bows,
 Three caskets of gold with golden keys;
Their robes were of crimson silk, with rows
Of bells and pomegranates and furbelows,
 Their turbans like blossoming almond-trees.
And so the Three Kings rode into the West,
 Through the dusk of night over hill and dell,
And sometimes they nodded with beard on breast,
And sometimes talked, as they paused to rest,  With the people they met at some wayside well.
"Of the child that is born," said Baltasar,
 "Good people, I pray you, tell us the news;
For we in the East have seen his star.
And have ridden fast, and have ridden far.
 To find and worship the King of the Jews."
And the people answered, "You ask in vain;
 We know of no king but Herod the Great!"
They thought the Wise Men were men insane,
As they spurred their horses across the plain
 Like riders in haste who cannot wait.
And when they came to Jerusalem,
 Herod the Great, who had heard this thing,
Sent for the Wise Men and questioned them;
And said, "Go down unto Bethlehem,
 And bring me tidings of this new king."
So they rode away, and the star stood still,  The only one in the gray of morn;
Yes, it stopped, it stood still of its own free will, Right over Bethlehem on the hill,
 The city of David where Christ was born.
And the Three Kings rode through the gate and the guard,
 Through the silent street, till their horses turned
And neighed as they entered the great inn-yard;
But the windows were closed, and the doors were barred.
 And only a light in the stable burned.
And cradled there in the scented hay,
 In the air made sweet by the breath of kine,
The little child in the manger lay.
The Child that would be King one day
 Of a kingdom not human, but divine.
His mother, Mary of Nazareth,
 Sat watching beside his place of rest,
Watching the even flow of his breath,
For the joy of life and the terror of death
 Were mingled together in her breast.
They laid their offerings at his feet:
 The gold was their tribute to a King;
The frankincense, with its odor sweet,
Was for the Priest, the Paraclete;
 The myrrh for the body's burying.
And the mother wondered and bowed her head,
 And sat as still as a statue of stone;
Her heart was troubled yet comforted, Remembering what the angel had said
 Of an endless reign and of David's throne.
Then the Kings rode out of the city gate,
 With a clatter of hoofs in proud array;
But they went not back to Herod the Great,
For they knew his malice and feared his hate,
 And returned to their homes by another way.
# Our American Holidays - Christmas/The Night After Christmas

THE NIGHT AFTER CHRISTMAS
ANNE P. L. FIELD
'Twas the night after Christmas in Santa-Claus land And to rest from his labors St. Nicholas planned. The reindeer were turned out to pasture and all The ten thousand assistants discharged till the fall. The furry great-coat was laid safely away With the boots and the cap with its tassel so gay, And toasting his toes by a merry wood fire, What more could a weary old Santa desire? So he puffed at his pipe and remarked to his wife, "This amply makes up for my strenuous life! From climbing down chimneys my legs fairly ache, But it's well worth the while for the dear children's sake. I'd bruise every bone in my body to see The darlings' delight in a gift-laden tree!"
Just then came a sound like a telephone bell— Though why they should have such a thing I can't tell— St. Nick gave a snort and exclaimed in a rage, "Bad luck to inventions of this modern age!" He grabbed the receiver—his face wore a frown As he roared in the mouth-piece, "I will not come down To exchange any toys like an up-to-date store, Ring off, I'll not listen to anything more!" Then he settled himself by the comforting blaze And waxed reminiscent of halycon days When children were happy with simplest of toys: A doll for the girls and a drum for the boys— But again came that noisy disturber of peace The telephone bell—would the sound never cease? "Run and answer it, wife, all my patience has fled, If they keep this thing up I shall wish I were dead! I have worked night and day the best part of a year To supply all the children, and what do I hear— A boy who declares he received roller-skates When he wanted a gun—and a cross girl who states That she asked for a new Victor talking machine And I brought her a sled, so she thinks I am 'mean!'" Poor St. Nicholas looked just the picture of woe, He needed some auto-suggestion, you know,
To make him think things were all coming out right, For he didn't get one wink of slumber that night! The telephone wire was kept sizzling hot By children disgusted with presents they'd got, And when the bright sun showed its face in the sky The Santa-Claus family were ready to cry! Just then something happened—a way of escape, Though it came in the funniest possible shape— An aeronaut, sorely in need of a meal, Descended for breakfast—it seemed quite ideal! For the end of it was, he invited his host Out to try the balloon, of whose speed he could boast. St. Nick, who was nothing if not a good sport, Was delighted to go, and as quick as a thought Climbed into the car for a flight in the air— "No telephone bells can disturb me up there! And, wife, if it suits me I'll count it no crime To stay up till ready for next Christmas time!" Thus saying—he sailed in the giant balloon, And I fear that he will not return very soon. Now, when you ask "Central" for Santa-Claus land She'll say, "discontinued"—and you'll understand.
# Our American Holidays - Christmas/The Shepherd's Song

THE SHEPHERD'S SONG
EDMUND BOLTON
Sweet music, sweeter far
 Than any song is sweet:
 Sweet music, heavenly rare,
 Mine ears, O peers, doth greet.
 You gentle flocks, whose fleeces pearled with dew.
Resemble heaven, whom golden drops make bright,
Listen, O listen, now, O not to you
 Our pipes make sport to shorten weary night:
 But voices most divine
 Make blissful harmony:
 Voices that seem to shine,
 For what else clears the sky?
Tunes can we hear, but not the singers see.
The tunes divine, and so the singers be.
 Lo, how the firmament
 Within an azure fold
 The flock of stars hath pent,
 That we might them behold,
Yet from their beams proceedeth not this light,
 Nor can their crystals such reflection give.
What then doth make the element so bright?
 The heavens are come down upon earth tc live
 But hearken to the song,
 Glory to glory's King,
 And peace all men among.
 These quiristers do sing.
Angels they are, as also (shepherds) He
Whom in our fear we do admire to see.
 Let not amazement blind
 Your souls, said he, annoy:
 To you and all mankind
 My message bringeth joy.
For lo! the world's great Shepherd now is born,
 A blessed Babe, an Infant full of power:
After long night uprisen is the morn,
 Renowning Bethlem in the Saviour.
 Sprung is the perfect day,
 By prophets seen afar:
 Sprung is the mirthful May,
 Which winter cannot mar.
In David's city doth this Sun appear
Clouded in flesh, yet, shepherds, sit we here!
# Our American Holidays - Christmas/The Shepherds

THE SHEPHERDS
WILLIAM DRUMMOND, OF HAWTHORNDEN
O than the fairest day, thrice fairer night!
 Night to blest days in which a sun doth rise
 Of which that golden eye which clears the skies
Is but a sparkling ray, a shadow-light!
And blessed ye, in silly pastor's sight,
 Mild creatures, in whose warm crib now lies
That heaven-sent youngling, holy-maid-born wight.
 Midst, end, beginning of our prophecies!
Blest cottage that hath flowers in winter spread,
 Though withered—blessed grass that hath the grace
 To deck and be a carpet to that place!
Thus sang, unto the sounds of oaten reed,
 Before the Babe, the shepherds bowed on knees;
 And springs ran nectar, honey dropped from trees.
# Our American Holidays - Christmas/The Spirit of Christmas (Dickens)

THE SPIRIT OF CHRISTMAS
From "Pickwick Papers."
CHARLES DICKENS
And numerous indeed are the hearts to which Christmas brings a brief season of happiness and enjoyment. How many families whose members have been dispersed and scattered far and wide, in the restless struggles of life, are then re-united, and meet once again in that happy state of companionship and mutual ​good-will, which is a source of such pure and unalloyed delight, and one so incompatible with the cares and sorrows of the world, that the religious belief of the most civilized nations, and the rude traditions of the roughest savages, alike number it among the first joys of a future state of existence, provided for the blest and happy! How many old recollections, and how many dormant sympathies, does Christmas time awaken!
We write these words now, many miles distant from the spot at which, year after year, we met on that day, a merry and joyous circle. Many of the hearts that throb so gaily then, have ceased to beat; many of the looks that shone so brightly then, have ceased to glow; the hands we grasped, have grown cold; the eyes we sought, have hid their lustre in the grave; and yet the old house, the room, the merry voices and smiling faces, the jest, the laugh, the most minute and trivial circumstance connected with those happy meetings, crowd upon our mind at each recurrence of the season, as if the last assemblage had been but yesterday. Happy, happy Christmas, that can win us back to the delusions of our childish days, that can recall to the old man the pleasures of his youth, and transport the sailor and the traveller, thousands of miles away, back to his own fireside and his quiet home!

THE NEWEST THING IN CHRISTMAS CAROLS
ANONYMOUS
God rest you, merry gentlemen!  May nothing you dismay; Not even the dyspeptic plats  Through which you’ll eat your way; Nor yet the heavy Christmas bills  The season bids you pay; No, nor the ever tiresome need  Of being to order gay;
Nor yet the shocking cold you’ll catch  If fog and slush hold sway; Nor yet the tumbles you must bear  If frost should win the day; Nor sleepless nights—they’re sure to come—  When "waits" attune their lay;
Nor pantomimes, whose dreariness  Might turn macassar gray;
Nor boisterous children, home in heaps,  And ravenous of play; Nor yet—in fact, the host of ills  Which Christmases array. God rest you, merry gentlemen,  May none of these dismay!

Foreword
In the thick of battle, the soldier is busy doing his job. He has the knowledge and confidence that his job is part of a unified plan to defeat the enemy, but he does not have time to survey a campaign from a fox hole. If he should be wounded and removed behind the lines, he may have even less opportunity to learn what place he and his unit had in the larger fight.
American forces in action is a series prepared by the War Department especially for the information of wounded men. It will show these soldiers, who have served their country so well, the part they and their comrades played in achievments which do honor to the record of the United States Army.
G. C. MARSHALL,
Chief of Staff.

Papuan Campaign: the Buna-Sanananda Operation is the second of a series called AMERICAN FORCES IN ACTION. The series was prepared at the suggestion of General of the Army George C. Marshall, Chief of Staff. His foreword, as used in the original edition, appears on the previous page. The series was originally designed for military personnel only and primarily for wounded soldiers in hospitals to tell them the military story of the campaigns and battles in which they served. With the cessation of hostilities, Papuan Campaign is released as a public document.
This study was based on the best military records available. Although in its published form it contains no documentation, the original manuscript, fully documented, is on file in the War Department. Aerial photographs are by the Allied Air Forces, S. W. P. A.; all others are by the U. S. Army Signal Corps.
Readers are urged to send directly to the Historical Division, War Department, Washington 25, D. C., comments, criticisms, and additional information which may be of value in the preparation of a complete and definitive history of the Buna-Sanananda operation.

# Papuan Campaign/Chapter 6

The Road Block (22 November–9 January)
(Map No. 6, page 66)
Map No. 6
managed to work part way around the enemy left flank, east of the road. During the next week they continued this envelopment, and the Cannon and Antitank Companies joined them. On 30 November, I Company under Capt. John D. Shirley and the Antitank Company under Capt. Meredith M. Huggins pressed on until they were astride the Soputa road in the rear of the enemy forward position, which was at the junction with the first branch trail to Cape Killerton.
At this point the American units established a road block to prevent use of the road to supply the enemy front. Operations of the next 3 weeks on the Sanananda front consisted essentially of the maintenance of this road block against desperate counterattacks from all sides. Sometimes enemy soldiers came so close to our trenches that our ​men could grab them by the ankles and pull them in, but they never broke through the block. Though K Company and the Cannon Company remained on the east flank through most of the period in order to maintain the supply line to the road block, it was often impossible to push supplies and ammunition through. Communications also were frequently interrupted. Day after day the dwindling survivors holding the road block had to spend all their daylight hours crouched in fox holes. Capt. Shirley was killed on 2 December. Capt. Huggins was wounded on the 5th but could not be evacuated until the 8th, when Lt. Peter L. Dal Ponte took command.
Against these odds, I Company and the Antitank Company held on until 22 December, when they were relieved by the Australian 3oth Infantry Battalion (30th Brigade). They then joined other elements of the 126th Infantry on the main Sanananda front, south of the road block. Exhausted by the long period under constant fire, these units of the 126th Infantry were finally withdrawn on 9 January and rejoined the remainder of the regiment at Buna.

United States Supreme Court
132 U.S. 215
Oregon Improvement Company v. Excelsior Coal Company
This is an action at law, brought by the Excelsior Coal Company, a corporation, against the Oregon Improvement Company, another corporation, in the circuit court of the United States for the northern district of California, for the infringement of a reissued patent. The complaint avers that on the surrender of the original patent a new patent was issued to the patentee 'for the same invention, for the residue of the term then unexpired for which the said original letters patent were granted.' The answer of the defendant denies 'each and every, all and singular, the allegations' contained in the complaint. The case was tried before a jury, and resulted in a verdict of $7,000 for the plaintiff, for which, with costs, judgment was entered. To review this judgment the defendant has brought a writ of error. There is a bill of exceptions, which states that the plaintiff read in evidence, without objection, the reissued patent, a copy of the specification of which with the drawings is set forth, and put in other evidence tending to show its right to recover damages; that the defendant, 'to sustain the issues on its part,' offered in evidence a duly-certified copy of the original patent, a copy of which, with the drawings, is set forth; that the plaintiff objected to the introduction of the original patent, on the ground that the same was immaterial and irrelevant to any defense raised by the answer; that the court sustained the objection; and that the defendant excepted to such ruling.
We are of opinion that the circuit court committed an error in excluding the original patent. It was relevant evidence upon the question whether the reissue was 'for the same invention' as the original, and the issue on that subject was sufficiently raised by the averment of the complaint and the denial in the answer. The defendant was entitled to try that question in a formal manner, and it could not do so unless the original patent was introduced in evidence. The judgment is reversed, and the case is remanded to the circuit court, with a direction to award a new trial.
