The Meaning of Christmas Day.

The keynote of Christmas joy is
Peace on earth. good will to
men," The first Christmas Day that
ever dawned brought rejoicing in its
wake. On that day there was born in
Bethlehem. Judea, Savior, who is
Christ the Lord. For those weary with
sin. for those oppressed with sorrows,
for the troubled in mind, for the weak
and helpless He came. But not to these
alone. To the joyful and happy ones.
to those rich in this worlds goods. to
the successful and prosperous He came.
To the whole world He appeared. None
were forgotten by Him. And now to
the outcast and to the weary one, to
the rich man and to the joyful child He
says the words, Learn of Me-"
If you suffer Christ pities you.
If you be lonely He is with you.
If you repent of sin He will keep you
in safety.

The Yule Feast.


Let England have her plum pudding
and let us have our own particular
american dishes on Christmas Day. A
comment was made by an English
woman upon Americans in general
yesterday. When asked what she had
noticed specially about Americans
during her two years visit to this
country, she smiled at first and said
nothing. But when the request was re-
peated and emphasized by the quest
ion: Now what are you going to say
about us when you return to England
in fact, what are you going to say
behind our backs?" she replied.
II shall probably say in criticism that
you disfigure the streets of New York
by having an elevated railroad, and
that all Americans are trying to be as
much like the English as possible,
and l do not see why this is. should
think you would want your American
individuality preserved" For Christ

this decision consists in the protection
which it assures to the millions of con-

The excellence of this article has
caused it to be highly esteemed and
largely used almost the world over.
Its high standard OF quality having
been always maintained, consumers
have come to rely implicitly upon the

a Question OF Clothes

President Faure, OF France, is a
very carefully dressed man, and, it is
said, spends large sum annually at
his tailor's. He is somewhat fussy
about his clothes; but there are those
OF the ancient regime who assert that
he does not know how to dress becom-
ingly. The ancient regime people are
generally wearing their old clothes
and looking ancient. There are nu.
merOus factories where unique furni-

II was in the year 1920 that the Puri-
tans passed their first Christmas in
America. BY referring to a copy of the
old Bradford manuscript it will be
found that the early settlers evil
IDENTIFY determined not to celebrate their
first Christmas in new land except by
hard work. William Bradford writes OF
it in this manner: "Ye 16 day ye winde
came faire, and they arrived safe in this
harbor. And afterward tooke better
view of We place, and resolved wher to
pitch their dwelling; and we 25 day be-
mon use to receive them and their
gods" To look hack upon those ear
ly days, when our forefathers by hard
labor toiled for a house for all, makes
one realize in some degree the advance
ment of our country. Bradford contin-
ues as follows: 'Munday, the 25 day,
we went on shore, some to fell tymber,
some to saw, some to rine and some to
carry, so no man rested all that day,
but towards night some, as they were
at worke. heard a noyse of some In
dians, which caused us all to goe to our
Muskets, but we heard no further, so
we came aboard again and left some
twentie to keep the court of gard; that
night we had a sore storme of winde
and rayne. Munday, the 25 day, being
Christmas Day, we began to drinke
