dren who cross your way feel some
of the gladness that is in your W
heart. 1t is SO easy. Don't grumble;
do what you a with enthusiasm and
give everything with love.
The worst sinners against Christ
mas peace are those who feel the
season is a nuisance and who do their
level best to make others feel the
same thing. They hate the excite
ment, the exchange Of presents, the
letters or cards they must send, the
idea of having to give servants money
the dinners they must get up, those
which they must attend. And in hat
ing these, and all the dozen and one
duties Of the Christmastide, they
hate everything-the joy that is in
the air, the sweet church bells, the
cherubim and seraphim of Bethlehem,
and even him whose coming the
prophet Micah foretold SO long be-
fore.
But thou, Bethlehem though
thou be little among the thousands Of
Judah, yet out of thee shall he come
forth . q
Granted there Is much personal sor-
row to be encountered by many. at
Christmastime, should this interfere
with the real peace of the soul?
Should the bother of dress, the CIV
ing of a dinner, the eating of one,
any mundane trife, in truth, set aside
the gladness that sweeps lands and
peoples and ages with its flood and
recompenses the heart that truly be-
lieves for every pain? And even If
there is no religious belief have we
the right to faint the joy of others
with u dissatisfaction or niggardli-
ness or unbelief? Is not faith more
beautiful than unfaith and joy more
helpful to every heart than grief or
its first cousin, ir~ritability?
So if you cannot live with the Yule-
tide angels, at least don't shoe them
from your neighbours door. And If
there happens to be the least bit of
faith in your heart, the least notion
that Christmas might be a pleasanter
time If o yourself were more per-
feet. give the good feeling a chance
to show what it can do. Live as much
as is possible with the gladness of
the moment; encourage more glad.
ness, give out all you have to spare.
Substitute tender friendship and
true human kinship for the presents
you have nc time to buy or cannot
AFFORD. Add unto the children's mer-
riment and do not subtract from II.
For If 0 do no more than these
small things and do them with all
your heart you will be having one Of
life's greatest blessings happy

Audo SplIlt, III 6V-
cry sense of the word, we are flnging
wide the portals to the winged ones
and spreading the banquet they love.
10 come down to plain, everyday
speaking, here are a few of the sins
the most well-meaning persons COM
NIT against the holiness, love and
comfort of the Christmastide.
Everybody knows that year by year
the shops make a strenuous effort to
encourage the early buying of gifts.
Christmas goods are put on sale quite
six weeks before they are needed.
while many a mercantile advertise
ment openly pleads the case of the
shop people. When we put off our
buying until the eleventh hour, men
women and chiIdren-all of whom
have a right to their own share of
Christmas = must work overtime.
Nothing is said of the awful heat of
the crowded shops, of the exhausted
air, of the toiling beings who swelter,
stand in icy draughts, who faint and,
perhaps, are sometimes discharged for
inadequacy with the last hideous bat
tie Of buying. But those who are be-
hind the scene know it all and every
heart open to human justice must
surely see this side of late Christmas
shopping-the bitter side.
How inadequate is the last-moment
present bought under such conditions
the usual conditions in cities-to
express the rightful Christmas sentf-
ment. Instead of telling Of Christmas
joy If 1t could but speak the gift
would say:
Il bring you a friends irritabilities.
and a sales-woman's white cheeks.
and a little cash girls sobs. and wish
you a miserable Christmas In short.
this belated purchase, obtained with
such effort to all concerned, carries
with 1t the unheard tears and signs

spirits of gladness we turn from our

Keep Boys on Farm.

The Gloucester County Board of Ag-
riculture took a step toward keeping
the boys and girls on the farm through
the county Y. NJ. c. A. The PROPOSE
ton is to create a rivalry n growing
contests, with handsome prizes. Sec
rotary Smith, of the association, laid
the plans, as adopted in other coun-
ties, before the Board. and the move
met quick approval. Herbert Borden
and Elwood Kirby were appointed a
committee to arrange for ~corn-grow-
ing contests for the boys and house
hold work for the girls. 1t was shown
that nothing so much as rivalry will
induce boys and girls to take an inter
est in anything.
