George Graves, the 14-year-old son
of F. E. Graves, had narrow escape
from serious injury at the Bijou
theatre in Minot. The chain which

Today is an important day in the calen-
dar of the Christian world, known as the
feast of the Epiphany, or twelfth day after
Christmas day which marks the closing
Of the Christmas celebration. 1t is not
only one of the chief festivals of the Chris
tan church, but is also the Russian Christ
mas The derivation of the name Epiphany
Is from the Greek. and means an appear
ance or manifestation, used with especial
reference to the appearance of deity
Among the ancient Greeks it was festival
held In commemoration of the appearance
OF a god In any particular place, while in
the Christian religion 1t commentaries the
manifestations of Christ to the world as
the son Of God.
In eastern countries 1t was early lnsti-
tuted both in Celebration of His nativity
and baptism The celebration of the birth
Of Christ was afterward transferred to De-
cember - In the west it has been OBJ

festivities. Elaborate carnivals were given
on this day, and both the arstocracy and
peasantry Joined in the revels. In Eng
land at the present time Twelfth Night is
a holiday second only to Christmas There
are always big gatherings of young and
old at the country houses, and good things
to eat in plenty are provided for the fur
ther pleasure of the guests. In the south
ern port of this country, where English
traditions are said to prevail to some ex-
tent, there is still an observance of Twelfth
Night.
AS above stated, Twelfth Night is the
Christmas festival in Russia That coun-
try, by adhering to the old Julian calendar,
is always twelve days behind the balance
of the world, so that December % or
Christmas, falls on January g.
In many places the blessing of water
takes place that day. Sovereigns common
ly offered gold, frankincense and myrrh at
the altar. That custom was still main
tanned by the French court in the four
teenth century, and the King of England
to this day makes an oblation at the Chapel
Royal st. James.
In the early centuries dramatic repre-
sensations of the events commemorated
took place in the churches during mass, and
even now the custom fingers in some parts
Of south Germany and the Tyrol. BY pro-
vision of the council of Trent, Nice, the
date of Easter for the year is announced
in the Roman Catholic Church on Epiph-
any Sunday.

A Peaceful Army Of Conquest.


The greatest story of the day is the story
Of the Canadian northwest Tales of new
lands are always interesting; but this is
the chronicle of the last great trek the
trek into the last of the new lands at least
of the North American continent 1t is the
saw; greater than the migration of the
Aryans, the Cimri, the Goths. Silently, ir-
resistibly, with an unparalleled rapidly,
the people are moving forward and oc-
cupying new lands, even they did the
forests of Europe long ago, and the
forests of the Appalachians since then
This army of wayfayers bears no banners;
few are it's trumps and drums. Attila the
Hun led his savage clans over old en-
pire and laid waste its cities, bOasting that
no blade of grass might grow behind his
horses feet. This army of peace has for
its purpose the simple one of making two
blades of grass grow where but one grew
before 1t is well-nigh the last army of
homeseekers the world will ever see march
ravage and lay waste If we would occupy,
must extirpate a people to make. room for
u.s. wipe clean country in the orient or
elsewhere and set on the law of might as
between man and man. But this great trek
TO the northwest Is no battle march, other
than the ever-joyous marching of man to
do battle with the wilderness, with the out
of-doors. 1t lays waste no homes, but
builds homes anew 1t makes place for the
strong, but there Is no feud-tax to follow.
II is the mightiest as well as the most
peaceful conquest Of the conquering Anglo
Saxon race. More than that, 1t is the
sWiftest.

The question of the text might well
enough have been asked. yesterday. For
these words voice the difficulty many peo-
pie feel as they consider life at close
range There is a sort of disenchantment
that we suffer when we think we have
discovered how a thing came to pass. In
the minds of many people the discovery
of a method of life is confused with the
cause that uses that method SO not a few
think they must choose between religion
and science, as if these two We're not diff
ferent phases of the same life. Science
devOtes itself to the discovery of meth
DDS; religion has always to do with the
hidden cause, operating through those
methods
The modern man often feels the same
difficulty though he uses larger words.

and we know how, through these millions
of years, evolution has wrought until We
have Socrates, Plato, Jesus.
How then do you say that man came
down from heaven and is the son of God,
when we can thus show you the Josephs
and Marys of his family? Will you be-
lieve in evolution or in God?'
We will believe in both, If you please!
For there is no process by which a
Socrates can be evolved out of star-dust
until some Power has involved Socrates
into the star-dust.
Something from nothing you cannot
take" is as good philosophy as it is math-
ematics Because we have discovered
some of the human relationships, it does
not follow that we know all. Because we
know the banks of the river Of life, it
does not follow that we know the source
and destiny of it. Perhaps the very
beauty and clearness Of the stream are
due to it's having been born of the rain
bow and the mist!
What if evolution were~but the divine
method, whereby come down from
heaven! Yes, man is the child of God,
because we know his father and mother.
For the ladder that leads from heaven to
earth is the ladder of human relation
ships, and to be a child of Joseph and
Mary is to be a son of the living God.
May not this drive home to us the con-
viction that we are living in Gods
world? There is no other kind of world.
There is no power but of God. The world
of fact and experience and experiment is
the world of God.
To discover certain processes by which
the material has been evolved only dis
closes the method of Gods activity. To
trace the long ancestry of man Is only
to find out the way man has come from
heaven to earth. The fact remains. Evo-
luton implies involution. Man comes
from heaven because there is no other
place for him to come from.
