A MERRY CHRISTMAS

The world stands upon the threshold
Of that season of the year when the
thought of ChriStendom instlncllVely
turns 70 the most gladstone day IN the
annals of recorded time the birthday
of the Savior Of the World
We may not be able with our finite
understandings to comprehend the
heighth and depth of the great plan
which came forth from the mind OF
the Infinite and which comprehended
the redemption of the entire human
race. but we find in the Inspired Word
this passage of unmistakable import:
For God so loved the world, that lie
gave His only begotton son, that who
soever bclieveth ON Him should not
perish. but have everlasting life.
In those words we find an cptomc of
the Divine plan. The motive and rea-
SON are both set forth, and while we
may marvel over what was compre-
hended in that plan, we accept it as a
great truth and know that the emerg-
ing of the world from darkness into
light dates from the hour when the
Star of Bethlehem flashed across the
Judean sky. Jesus Christ was there
fore Gods first Christmas gift to a
sad and weary world In that hour
was born the spirit of cheer, peace on
earth and good will toward men
which has never died out during all the
centuries which have passed.
This is the season of good cheer.
The time for bright faces and gener-
Gus impulses for gladstone greetings
a time for noble resolves to be born
a time for old animosities to die out
time when the benevolent side of
ones nature should eclipse the sordid
side Il time when the thoughts should
be turned toward home and the pleas
ures of all, especially the children.
We trust that the day will be all that
the occasion demands. with our readers,
10 one and all of whom we extend
greetings and best wishes for MERRY
CHRISTMAS.
