views on the subject void of malice
or i'll will toward a living soul:
1t is a sad state of affairs when
the baby finds no welcome in the
home, the church, the hotel, the
restaurant and in rented rooms
generally. In many churches of
today babies are practically exclud-
ed during the service hours, charg-
able of course. to their excessive
noise, wilful or otherwise. Many
young parents no longer attend
church services knowing full we'll

Jesus said: Suffer and forbid not
little children to come unto Me
for of such is the kingdom of heav-

church one Sunday were there was
also baby in attendance and dur

fretful from excessive heat. The
young mother did he best to quiet
the child down. and was succeeding
very nicely when the preacher said:

among a certain class OF doctors
has increased to an alarming ex-
tent during the past quarter OF
century. One of the medical jour
nails recently stated that almost
every town and every city had one
one or more practitioners, who for
a consideration would produce an
abortion, and then adds: And, it
is astonishing the class of women
who resort TO- those physician three
or four times year for relief from
motherhood, women you would
never suspect, all because chill
dren are not wanted" HOLY writ
says: Multiply and replenish
the earth" but this commandment
is superseded by the words of the
quack doctor: "Oh, that's an old
fogy notion, what the use to re-
produce Yourself with all the self
denials, trials, troubles and vexa-
tons" Not all childless couples
are guilty of this crime. Many are
so lily mated, some are barren. but
the fruitful are in abundance who
will in the great judgment day
stand up and answer for and pay
the penalty for malicious murder
of their own unborn. An old lady
one time received a printed invita-
ton to attend the wedding ceremo-
ny of a couple of her young friends
and a postscript line read: No
children wanted She read it all
over half a dozen time, laid her
glasses aside. wiped her forehead
and said: Yes, but they'll have
'em Just the same" But it is not
so now.

The Christmas Spirit.

There are several elements or de-
tails to the Christmas spirit. OF
course the one most referred to is
that of universal love ard peace
toward all men. Another is the ex-
preston Of that love by the giving
of Christmas gifts. In that connec-
Jion there are details which are as
much part OF the spirit as the first
two.
Most people begin their Christmas
preparations long weeks before the
day arrives and put into their handi-
work the love and the peace of spirit
which characters the season. That
is most worthy tendency. But the
thought of those with whom one
must deal, little consideration Of
their comfort, should be as much a
part of the season and its spirit as
thought for those who are persona
to one.
That means early Christmas shop
ping. 1t also means early Christmas
mailing and expressing. BY buying
early the merchants are not the ones
most greatly benefited, it is the
clerks who stand behind the counters
Surely they are worthy Of Christmas
consideration. By buying early you
lesson their labor, ease their season
and make Christmas more happy
That is worth something.
Then those who can shop early in
the day should do so, for there are
many hundreds of people who must
use the noon, or later afternoon hours
Give that time to them, those of you
who can.
And mail early. Thousands of ton;
of Christmas gifts are sent through
the mail. Few letter carriers have
any Christmas at ALL On the day
others are enjoying themselves with
their wives and little ones they are
working to help make those little ones
happy. BY mailing Christmas pack.
