national contests. Ill.,. H..
The Russians, Swedes, Poles,
Firms, Austrians and Danes are also
taking up the game with a great deal
of enthusiasm, and there is little
doubt that in few years the fight for
the cup will be real international

n. 4. Sentiment for the Coming
Christmas.

Announcement of the committee on
Christmas observance, comes from the
office of the Grand Recorder, under date
of November g. as follows:
The Committee on Christmas observ-
ance of the grand encampment an
noupces the following sentiment for the
'aTo Our Most Eminent Grand Master
Arthur Macarthur:
"A quarter of a million Knights Of the
Temple, in this and other lands, await
ing your first Christmas greeting. again
ayouv their allegiance to you and those
in authority, and pledge their devotion
to the Great Redeemer and His cause
on earth.
THE grand master sends the following
response:
'aTo all Knights Templar:
There can come to no man, occupy
ing whatever position he may, a greet
ing that is so full of the spirit of Chris
tian knighthood as the sentiment which
comes to me as your most eminent
grand master from the sir knights of
the grand jurisdiction at this Christ
mas time.
I'm this approaching season, when
Christmas teachings should prevail, and
when. knightly greetings and knightly
sympathy be manifested on every side,
the voice, as one from this mighty host,
comes like music to soothe the cares Of
day, to inspire to nobler action and to
make one feel that life's burden is
easier to bear and life's journey easier
to tread. In these days of materialism,
when the hand of acquisition is busy,
when the more beautiful sentiments of
life are sometimes pushed rudely aside,
when Justice, with leaden heels and vel
vet hands, harnesses and grieves, it is
then, and then in its full force, that the
powers and privileges of Christian
knighthood should show forth in all their
beauty, in all their possibilities and in
all their abilities to make life happier
and mankind better.
Now when joy and peace should be
prevalent, there comes to us a more seri-
Gus thought-that In the regeneration Of
the world-that in its rebirth-there
should ever be present in our daily walk
in life, the teachings that made the Man
of Nazareth that one great appealing
power whose influence ages have not
dimmed, and whose strength for good
ever grows stronger.
'It is my sincere desire and my sincere
wish that whatever there is in the teach
ings Of our order that can be applied to
