The State of North Carolina may
be wrong in her contention regarding
the validity of it's rate act, but there
appears to be a wonderful lot of
unanimity among the newspapers in
their support. The action OF some
of these papers has no doubt been a.
surprise to the Southern. The fight
is interesting outside of the State,
also, and the newspapers as a gener
al thing are lining up with the State,
on the ground of States rights, of
course. -GreensbOrO Record.

Christmas Cards.

The Christmas card as We know 1t has
an origin easily traceable, and it is doubt
less at least sixty years since the first
was designed The artist who claimed
to be its originator and who was, at any
rate, the first to see its possibilities was
W. G. T. Dobson, r. A., who, when quite
young man. in 1914, was prompted at
Christmas to make a little sketch sym
bolic of the seasons joys and festivities
and to send it to friend. 1t seemed
to give great pleasure. and the next year
Mr.. Dobson determined to follow up the
idea on a larger scale, and by having his
card photographed was enabled to send
copies to twenty-five. or thirty friends.
The delight with which they were received
was so great that Mr.. Dobscn was quick
to. perceive that he had found. out a new
pleasure for Christmas.-New York Mail

Christianity should make every day in
the year a sort of Christmas day. This

was never meant to be confined to one
brief festival. This burying of old

aladdening the hearts Of the poor. and

some of Christianity's everyday duties,

CHRIsTMAS LONG AGO.

Come sing 4 hale heigh-o
For the Christmas long ago.
| When the old log cabin homed -
| From the night of binding SNOW,
And the rarest joy held reign,
And the chimney roared amain,
With the freight like a beacon
Through the frosty window panA.
All the revel and the din
From without and from within,
The blend of distant sleigh bells
With the blinking violin;
The mufiled shrieks and cries.
Then the glowing cheeks and eyes
The driving storms of greetings,
Gusts of kisses and surprise.
Sing in again the mirth
OF the circle round the hearth,
With the rustic Sinbad telling rs
The strangest tales on earth!
And the minstrel bard we knew,
With his "Love-li-er 80 true"
Likewise his young House-k 'yaypenter,s
And Lowed Henry" too!
And forgetting meier a thing.
Lift a gladder voice and sing
OF the dancers in the kitchen
Clean from start to pigeon wingr
Sing the glory and the glee
And the joy and jubilee
The twirling form-the qufckened
breath
The sigh Of ecstasy.
But eyes that smile alone
Back into our happy own
The leaping pulse-the laughing blood.
The trembling undertone!
Ho! paid us off once more,
With our feet upon the floor,
But our heads and hearts in heaven,
As they were in days Of yOre.

: On that Christmas night God honored
motherhood. The angels on their wings
might have brought an infant Saviour to
Bethlehem without Mary's being there at
all. But, no; motherhood for all time
was to be consecrated, and one Of the
tenderest relations was to be the maternal
relation, and one of the sweetest words,
mother" In all ages God has honored
good motherhood. In a great audience,
most Of whom were Christians, asked
that all those who had been blessed with
Christian mothers arise, and almost the
