Christmas Tree az Middle Brock

Christmas Tree al Middle Brock.
Mr.. EDITOR: The members Of the
Sunday school and the people Of the
entire community of the Middle
Brook new church were tr,a.ed to n
splendid Christmas festival on Christ
mas eve.
The church was flied with an ex-
pectant audieBce al an early hour.
The exercises were OF an Interesting
character, interspersed with music by
the school. In the midst Of al inter
esting song entitled Jesus is King, -
the curtains were quickly drawn aside
and a brilliantly lighted tree
loaded with nice presents, burst
upon the view, amid a joyous
greeting by the audience. The chill
dren were wild with delight, while
each one received a large bag of can
dy and choice present besides.
This is a flourishing school, and
while very many deserve praise for
their efforts in behalf of sill it's inter
ests, yet no one has done more in the
erection of this church and the build
ing Up OF a large Suday school than
the uperintendent. Mr.. Hood. NJ.

TWO TRAVELLERS.

The hour is midnight, hushed and still
The starlight rests on need and hill;
The world lies bathed in restful sleep,
Save only those who watch and weep,
Save only those who vigil keep.
And wait in woe or wait in cheer,
The death-knell of the passing year.
Sweet music Ellis the realms of space,
When in Jehovah's dwelliDg-plaC
Two angels, clothed in glory bright,
Fling open wide the Gates OF Light,
From whence a traveller clothed II
white
A baby New Year, sof. and fair,
Comes floating downward through the ar
Alone he speeds toward earthly lands
When in his path traveller STANDS
Inc weary body, bent with care,
It's sinful burden scarce can bear:
With toll the Old l ear mounts the ar.
When, struggling through the ether Hh ~ u
His glance falls on the heaYen-born chlld.
Tho eray-beard's tones are old and weak !
In wparIupss his tongue doth speak
"a twelvemonth since l left the sky,
Sent forth by Him VINO reigns on high,
On earth to five, on earth to die.
Lo! return 10 whence l came,
Bowed down with toll and san and shame"
In dread the New Year lifts his eyes
To yon bright region of the skies:
'NUt so, . Father, oh, not so
May be the fate to which gol
In we I'll live with men below
Oh, l will bid their souls rejoice,
And beg a welcome with my voice.
'Out of the darkness, out of night,
Springing to meet the morning light,
Leaving the nebulOus upper world,
My tiny wings to the air unfurled,
Out of the ether and out of space,
Trusting myself to your tender grace,
Begging a welcome sweet and fair
Love and mercy and gentle care,
l come, the glad New Year
What did ye do to him who passed
Borne away on the wIntry blast?
i met traveller, old and wern,
His brow was bent and his robe wsa torn
Not - me may the same fate be,
Bright and joyous and pure and free,
LO from the realms of light above,
Bearing to mOrLals Fathers love,
come, the glad New Year"
In JOY he comes the gentle child,
A gift from Heaven in mercy mild;
DE comes to greet the world alone,
The glad, sweet New 7 ear, not our own,
A spirit from Jehovah's throne.
Not like the Old Year may he go,
Bowed down with weight of mortal woe,
Oh many victory may he win
., er doubt and pain, er grief and sin,
In 1t not In vain bis tender voice,
Shall bid the soul of men Rejoice :"
the babe that knows not grief nor fear.
The Fathers gift, the glad New Year!
