cHRIsTMAs. rHE HAPPY TIME

This is the season of special rejoic-
ing-the time for giving and receiving
gifts. 1t is the most important ami
versary in the worlds history-the
birth of the Savior of mankind. Be-
fore HIS coming the earth was in spirit
ual darkness; men worshipped heather
gods of wood or stone; there were no
high ideals. no love or tenderness or
mercy or sympathy such as followers
of the Master know today. The weak,
the unfortunate, and the helpless were
put to death that society might not be
burdened with their support. The com
ing of Christ brought new light into
the world. His gospel was peace on
earth, good will to men," Bear We
one another's burdens;" Feed my
lambs, feed my sheep" Men learned
from Him that the soul is immortal,
that mans life on earth is but pre-
paration for better life in the spirit
ual Kingdom. To the struggling multi
tude, He gave the blessed invitation
Come unto Me all ye that labor and
are heavy laden and l will give you
rest.
Let us thank God for the gift of His
Son. The birth of Jesus was the be-
ginning of new civilization, and in
proportion as the world accepted His
teaching, did it move onward and up
ward. Today, as the direct result of
Christian influence, the general condi-
ton of mankind is improved; wars are
less frequent; the poor and needy have
better care than in any past ages; bu-
man rights are more generally safe
guarded, and human liberty more uni
versal. We may be yet far from the
Millennium, but with Christ for leader
and His teachings for our rule of con-
duet the millennium will come. From
time to time we find men who have
been busy with material things, and
who have, in their activities, been sue
cessful, as the world measures success,
taking up the work of helping their less
fortunate brothers. The latest volun-
teer in this good work is George W.
Perkins. who for many years was con-
nected with j. Pierpont Morgan. Mr..
Perkins will devote his future life to
the betterment Of the condition of men
who labor; especially those who WORK
for great corporations. His scheme to
make the worker sort of partner in
the business and a sharer of the pro-
fits is but another form Of doing what
the great Cross Bearer would do if
dealing with laboring men. Mr.. Per-
kins, on our approaching Christmas
day, will find keener relish for the
good things spread out before him as
he recalls the words of the Master.
'1nasmuch as we have done it unto the
least of these my brethren, We have
done it unto me.
Thank God for Christmas and for the
faith that prompts US to properly cele
brate it. May the day and its influence
come with good cheer and right spirit
to every reader of the CENSOR and to
the balance of mankind.

JAMAICA WILL NOT
HAVE RACE MEET
nv Associated Press.)

New York, April There will be
no spring race meeting at Jamaica
this year. With the consent of the
Jockey Club stewards, the twelve
day Jamaica meeting will be run of
at the AQueduct track, making "a
days consecutive racing at Aqueduct
beginning April Is.
The Jamaica stakes, already clos
ed, will, of course, be run at Aque-
duct precisely as If the original pro.
gram had been adhered to. The ar
rangement therefore, will not af-
feet the horsemen or general public
nor will it mean any curtailment of
the racing season. The arrange
ment is principally one of convent
ence and there will be compensat-
ing readjustment in the autumn
whereby Aqueduct will forfeit its
fall dates.
