Text: That disciple whom Jesus
loved saith unto Peter, It is the Lord.
John, xxi, I.
A young man, a stranger comes to
a home that has lost its child. Some
trick of manner, a flash of the eye,
seizes the sorrowing mothers heart.
She cries with tears, 1T is my boy"
A like beauty of recognition, raised
to divine power, lies in the simple
story of the text. The Lord was once
little human child. How was the
Christmas baby greeted? He came
into a world of love, home, nurture,
growth; a world of forebodng Of
peril, of burden bearing Mary, clasp.
ing Him to her breast, picturing His
future, cries, ut is my dear one. II
is my promised blessingi" Could any
one. even the Virgin Mother. foreknow
that future? Could any one see the
Lord in the infant? God was most
human in the manger, on the cross.
1t is an untrue temptation to find Him
in marvels.
Put another text by the side OF
ours-the words "Ye have done it un-
to me-" Both are Christmas texts, If
we be able to see it: 1T is the Lord"
aye have done 1t unto me-" The first
note of Christmas is a note of Joy, an
illuminated picture-songs of angels,
shepherds with flocks, star leading
wise men. All that story we believe;
we follow with them. we find Him and
worship.
But He comes again in another
guise. The beautiful German myth of
the Christ child is true. Christ be-
longs to universal humanity in its love
and sympathy and service. In the
darkness and the cold, in the driving
wintry storm, a cry. a knock, from
without our sheltered comfort. We
open to a ragged. weary, haggard
child. 1T Is the Lord" the Lord of
mans common need and common de-
| votion.
The glory of the Christmas time Is
twofold glory Have you caught
both its notes?
There is nearer truth these
Christmas days. We find Him to be
the Lord as we strive to climb to the
heights where He lives, rather thar
as He comes down to us. We tinC
! Him in the child. the carpenter, tho
teacher, the healer, the friend, so re
vealing what it is to be divine. We
find Him in the least of His brethren
whom He loved, whom we serve. a.
our trust from Him. We find Him in
ourselves. Looking at our own lives
we may share again the joy and won
der and hope of Mary, may bring tc
birth the divine There is sometime
worth redeeming In me.
The Stranger whom we dimly see
on the shore of life's cloud bank
speaks: :-"Cast the net on the right
side of the ship" Keep at it! Be
brave, be steady at your work, wheth-
er it be teaching or study; whether
outside labor or housekeeping. Let il
not be a hard done duty, but willing
use, the homage of life that is a
trust from on high. Living can never
be as II there had been no Christmas
in the world. On the shore, in the
mist, by the fire. in labor and doubt
and monotony. We minister to nc
stranger, no tyrant Everywhere "it
is the Lord" Glory and peace. love
and good will.

DIAMOND STARS
Shine ON STAGE
AMERICAN PUBLIC ANXIOUS TO
SHOW ITS APPRECIATION OF
BASEBALL STARS ALL
THE YEAR ROUND.

Baseball is getting such a strong
hold on the American public that the
fans are not content with watching
the game during the regular season,
nut are anxious to show their appre-
citation of the national game even in
the winter months The stars of the
diamond are coming to be stars of the
stage. The demand for ball players
that can do a turn on the vaudeville
stage or show themselves even i'm the
legitimate is much greater than the
supply of players.
The time is coming fast when any
popular during the summer with the
fans will be sure of a place on the
stage during the winter. The play
tractors are increasing i'm number
each year, and before another Ave
years has passed the best attractions
ON the vaudeville stage will be the ball
players that have entertained the peo-
pie through the summer with brilliant
plays.
Four of the best known of Chicago
players will this winter try their skin
as entertainers before the footlights
Joe Tinker, Doc White, Jimmy CAL
lahan and Ed Walsh will do their trick
for several weeks during the long va
cation period. Tinker and Callahan
have been out before and have es-
tablished themselves as capable ac-
tors. Mike Donln has been a star for
two years His wife, Mable Hite, is
one of the most popular idols of the
matinee frequenters, and through her
Donlin has been able to make himself
solid with the amusement-seeki
public after saying goodbye to the
diamond forever.
In New York Christy Mathewson
and Chief Meyers are doing turn on
the stage that is meeting with more
than ordinary success. Doc White
will sing some Of his own productions
during his tour this winter, and it is
a certainty that he will be one of the
most popular finds of the season for
the theater managers.
Ed Walsh has a fine voice also, and
he will do singing turn when he gets
his lines well learned. The ball play
ers have not been seekers after these
stage engagements, but ii is because
the public is eager to see the heroes
of the diamond off the ball field. 1t is
the sight of the players more than
what they do that pleases the theater-
goers. One of the most successful
player i'm the business is Char
lie Doom, the energetic manager of the
Philles. He has been entertaining
audiences for two years on the stage,
and has been so much of n success
that this year he was besieged with
offers from some of the best vaudeville
circuits.
1t speaks well for baseball to have
the players that are capable of getting
up before an audience and amusing
them for half hour The players of
long ago were not i'm a class with the
players of today for few of the old
timers were capable of doing any kind
OF a stunt that was worth seeing,
while today the only reason that there
are not many more players on the
stage is that the players refuse the
offers that are made to them by the
eager theatrical managers.
