CHRISTMAS IS A PROPHECY
II Forecasts the Perfect Social Con-

Christmas is not only a fact COM
memorating the one sacred festival
In the worlds calendar, hut the glorSs
ious prophecy of a coming day, sur
passing all the brightest social dreams
that have ever visited the most adj
vanced human mind. He sprang, on
His human nature side, from kings
and peasants, from saints and sinners.
He is yet to lift every peasant to the
kingliest throne of character and trans
form the chief of sinners into the
hottest of saints. He allied Himself
with poverty and the common people.
He is yet to Danish poverty with all
IT'S ills, from the world, and to give
to common humanity their rightful
sovereignty. He worked with His
hands for His daily bread. He is yet
to dignity and glorify in the thought
of mankind all honest toll. He hon
ored woman with His sympathetic and
appreciative regard. He is yet to re-
lieYe her from every form of serfdom
created by the past ages. He took
little children In His arms and blessed
them. He Is yet to make blessed the
child life in every welcoming home.
He gave His peace to His distracted
disciples He is yet to make wars
cease unto the end Of the earth, He
united His brethren with Himself and
His Father in one unbroken oneness
He is yet to make every man q broth
or to his fellow-man and at one Will
his Father In Heaven.

closely resemble the celebrations OBJ
served of old in honor of SatHrn or
Bacchus.
: The Roman Saturnalia, which oc-
Cured in the winter solstice, were a
season of great festivity and rejoicing,
honored by many privileges and ex-
emptions. The spirit of gaiety had
free charter, and even quarrels were
suspended, to be resumed after the
holidays.
AS manifestation of the gratitude
, felt at the renewed prospects of the
returning march of the sun, gifts were
exchanged and special hymns were
sung. These latter were really the
Roman representatives OF the modern
carol.
j At the Saturnalia the Roman feast
ed, sang and danced, as We do at
Christmas. A ruler or king was ap-
pointed, who enjoyed certain preroga-
tives. He presided over the sports OF
the season. Probably he is the an
cestor OF the lord of misrule, who ex-
| ercised similar power in more re
! cent times.
Merriment was q matter Of general
concern, and the joyous spirit of en-
tire districts 10 now narrowed to fam
lily parties.
It is the touch that makes the
whole world kin, and It Is pleasant

peats itself.
