Prenarinr for Christmas.

With the dawn of the Advent season
all hearts are turned towards Christmas
The church season ushered in on Sunday
last is preparation for the great festival
of the Nativity. And already the choirs
and Sunday schools are getting ready
their jubilant anthems. Soon fair hands
will fashion into shapely garlands the
spruce and laurel boughs, mingled with
holly's red berries. The prudent house
wife already has prepared her mince meat
and baked her fruit cake, so that both
will be we'll seasoned, as age improves
theu. Next thing comes the fancy arti
Giles for the Christmas trees, manufactur-
ed after all the little tots have gone to
the land OF Nod. The monarch of the barn
strut around unconscious Of his fate, and
sundry little bundles stored away in the
pantry mean that there will be a good
plum pudding for the Christmas feast
Even the Sunday schools imbibe some OF
the spirit OF Yule tide;all the seats arc full,
and each one will make an effort to be
punctual every Sunday, so as to get that
little box of candy.

D1soRAoEFUL PROCEEDINGS.
A Foot Ball Match Between Cadets and
college Students Ends IN q Row,

--S@o otNAShtb LINUS IN Row.
One Of the most exciting games of foot
ball that has been played this season took
place on Saturday afternoon between the
II Johns College and Naval Academy
Cadets teams, resulting in az overwhelm.
ing victory for the College boys. This is
the second time that the College team has
defeated the Cadets this season. AT the
conclusion OF the game on Saturday the
cadets on the outside and college students
other than the players became involved in
disrute resulting from the victorious
cries OF the college boys, and there were
several knock-downs. 1t is said the cadets
were the aggressors.
The presence Of the superintendent and
other officers of the Academy stopped the
scrimmage. and further trouble was
ayerted. The college boys celebrated heir
victory by firing cannon at night. The
conduct of the cadets has created senil-
ment amongst the college pupils In favor
OF not playing the cadets again, since the
college students. ii is claimed, gave no
cause for the attack on them, the only
cries used over their victory being the
usual chatting taunts and EXPLANATIONS
characteristic of foot ball contests. No
one was seriously hurt. though several Of
the College boys and q few citizens re-
ceivsd black eyes The affair was dis
graceful one and was strongly condemned.

Said the preacher last nieht on the
subject Of Church Going we would
not have peop'e compelled TO go 70
Church, as was the case in some parts OF
our land away back In the past.
Nor would we have people attend church
merely because 1t is their duty TO do so.
Nor would we have them attend merely
because Ii has been their custom 10 do SO.
Ii is a good thing TO feel that II Is our
duty to attend church, and II is vel u
have the habit Of church going.
But il is better 10 go because We esteem
II privilege We would have people
drawn, not driven. Every worshippeT
should feel that there is benefit In church
going. II they are not receiving the
benefit, they ought to feel that the faith
/ is in their own hearts There are spirit
ual and Intellectual benefits. Indeed, we
think too that there are many temporal
benefits.
There are benefits TO the community

The pecuniary benefit aud the spirit.
