CHRISTMAS TIDE

Let the legend, sweet and tender,
That adown the ages runs
From Egyptian, Buddhist, Hebrew,
From all races meath the suns,
That Saylor hath arisen,
That a man child, born Of Coo,
Hath within its own strong spirit
Power to lift them from the sod.
Let it teach its highest meaning,
Let us read the writing larg',
See, within the blest Evangel,
HINTS of mans dlvinest charge.
Every father hath within him
Something Of the Holy Ghost;
Every mother. true to duty,
May II hero. prophet boast.
Every child to every parent
Bring a message high and pure.
Glorifylng thought and action,
Herading redemption sure.
Every land is Gods, and holy;
Each race hath it's Christ and Cross
BY whose light man marcheth starward
Victor over death and dross.
Thus the Western magi bring not
Costly gifts to one alone
But to every true Messiah
Earth Grand History hath shown.

CHRISTMAS GREETING TO ALL

Now that the Christmas season is
upon US. We are infected with the
Christmas spirit, and our readers will
be patient with our inclination to do a
bit of moraliZing by tie way. We
mon on gift giving bu, us space fol bids,
We will try to be content with less. 1t
Is Il noble prompting that comes to men
once Il year to make all the world hap
py. A spirit that carrie | into our
daily living 3G5 days of the year, would
realize at bound, The tultilmcnt o! the
Angel Song of Peace on Earth, Good
will to Mcn!' But alas that our gift
giving Is so often marlcd by the faint
of selfshness that excIus,vcness that
regards one duty done, in making
happy those near aud dear to us a
spirit grown familiar to Us in the
prayer :
20 Lord bless ME and my wife,
Ny son John and his wife,
We four and no more.
The home should be only the center
of every circle Of giving; when it be-
comes both center and circumference,
it is very nearly. tho not quite, a fail
ure, for the spirit Of giving, however
narrow, is better than no giving ut all.
Sill we cannot help believing, the true
spirit that goes out toward all the sui
fering and needy. altho' unable to give
at all is vastly noblpr and more com.
mendable than that exclusive home
giving and taking which is destitute of
the Christmas spirit. There Is such
thing as right giving and wrong giving;
the true Christmas spirit is one Of right
giving. 1t Is not so much what we
give, as the motiye that prompts. a
great deal of the blessedress Of gift.
giving has been destroyed by the
abuse of the custom and what was for
merly spontaneous Offering of the heart,
has grown to be a burdensome fad.
Too many give gifts from a sense of ob
legation or because 1t is expected. a
gift not prompted and consecrated by
s tl,o -, ~, ;ctt
spirit, and is alike an injustice to the
glver, an insult to the receiver.
Neither is 1t always the costliest gift
that is the most acceptable. 1t is per,
haps difficult but all the more duty
to foster the spirit of simplicity in Civ.
ing; to teach by example, there is a
higher than money value in gifts.
Again, a perp'exlng question arises,
when gifts of different values are to be
bestowed. To whom shall we give the
costliest? If in giving outside the
home. we give the prettiest and cost
hest to those who haye things in keep
ing, and the trialng gifts to those who
have but little, it is time to stop and
ask ourselves why we give at all, and
question our hearts whether or not we
are actuated by the Christ Spirit. If
the plain card to Mrs. Bullion means
an easy chair for Mrs. Needy, and both
these gifts mean simpler gifts at our
own tireside, we shall have to face the
problem square'y and decide for our
selves whether or no the true Christmas
spirit shall actnate us,

The habit of Christmas giving prev
alent in our Sunday schools has also
its blessings and its dangers. If instead
of taking up yearly collections Tor the
purchase of gifts to be distributed
among the children of the sunday school
we were to foster among them the true
Christmas spirit that would lead them
voluntarily and of their own accord to
saye up their pennies IN order to make
happy at Christmas the little street
arabs and outcasts that crowd slums,
how much real lasting pleasure stored
away In the memory of the little donors,
to hallow their young lives and per-
petuate their unsefsh doing?
There is one thing the true Christmas
spirit teaches by experience If one of
the tamily-father or mother-has it
strong, it is contagious even with the
children, and the selfish spirit of get
ting melts away like frost before the
sun.
One can do a great dea. toward ere.
ating the Christ atmosphere at Christ
mas time, and thus one home, the cen.
ter CT circle that touches many homes
and people, may send out an influence
for good, out of all proportion to the
money value Of its gifts.
Ennob,cd by suffering ard honorcd by
shame
The chicfest Of great ones, the crown and
the head
Att,s by miracles done in Thy name
For the blind, for the lame, fer The sick
and the dead.
Because He in all things was tempted like
me,
Through the sweet human hope, by the
cross that he bore,
For the lnye which so much to the Marys
could he.
Christ 'csus the man, not the God, adore.
An exchange says "the latest fad in
! fashionable circles is doye dinner at
which The tables are decorated with
dove wings, and the souvenirs at each
plate are dove heads symbolic of peace
and innocence rather OF thoug ghtless-
ness and cruelty, we should say 1t is
only an lncnltvated heart and an I'M
paired imagination that can escape see
inc amid such surroundings, pictures
of bleeding birds and broken homes in
blrlland. So says UNITY and we feel
| lust ,he same sentiments whenever we
90 TO church and watch the little bird
ling tucked up on some girls hat, that

that is tender of life and calls fol no
sacrifice upon its altars other than floral.
! Last week S issue Of THE CLARION
