Gettysburg.

Christmas for 1907 has passed
into history and while it may not
have been devoid of sadness, it
has brought sunshine and enjoy
ment to the many. 1t is a day
of general cheer and gladness,
and is peculiarly devoted to gift
giving and merriment. This is
as it should be. No other day is
so fitting for a service of this
kind as the day we celebrate for
the birth of Christ. His coming
was gift to men and His teach
ing was gifts and good will to
men. For the distribution of
gifts a Santa Claus has usually
been employed, and notwith-
standing the existence of the
gift we have had his existence
doubted and disputed, so that
doubts have arisen in the minds
of many good people whether
there really was a Santa Claus or
not. What ever doubt may have
existed in the writer's mind con-
cerning this mooted question,
was completely dispelled on
Christmas day. The veritable
creature appeared on our streets
with his long shaggy beard, cor
responding robe, and wagon filled
with gifts, going from house to
house over our village handing
out gifts to the people; at one
time when he came to a descent
in our sidewalk he got on his wa
gon and spun away like a fairy.
had often seen pictures of San
ia Claus, but now have seen the
real creature. Seeing is believ-
ing. Oh, We of little faith, will
ye still doubt his existence!
Our Sunday schools rendered
appropriate programs on Christ
mas Eve and received treats.
All were happy and joyous.

The January number of The
Ladies' World has just been re-
ceived, and if it can be taken as
representative of the year the
subscribers will certainly be
pleased, for it is not only one of
the handsomest of the periodicals
that come to our table, but it is
filled with material that is inter
esting to read and valuable to
know. Those who like good fic-
ton will find stories by Elliott
Flower, Mary Mears, Maude Ad-
ans who tells the story of her
famous debut as an infant-and
Roy Norton, while those who are
looking for sensible economies in
the household will turn at once
to those departments, which to
us seem more practical than in
any other publication. There are
some excellent fashions for all
members of the family, and a
special article on Economical
Winter Dressing, which should
be appreciated at this time. AL.
together the number is unusually
good. New York; Fifty Cents
