legacies of original sin. Believing as we
do In the divine personality and In the
divine and human natures of Him whose
birth we commemorate today, II becomes
our duty to oppose and repress to the
best of our ability, not only in ourselves,
but in others, SO far as our influence and
example extend, those evil passions which
stand as a barrier between the human
soul and the loyal faith in Christ as the
Son of God, which is essential for all who
would have life everlasting. From the
crib of Bethlehem the infant Saviour ap-
penis to you and to me to be not merely
adorers and followers, but apostles in
His service. Ours the mission, ours the
high and holy Office TO proclaim to the
world that this day is born to them
Saviour who is Christ the Lord. By our
fervent prayers, by our fidelity to the
duties of our state of life by our self
sacrifices In the service of our fellow
creatures, by the powerful stimulus Of a
noble Christian life we become the
bearers Of the glad tidings of the, incar-
nation and the birth of the Son Of God
Let 1t be our aim, besides the sanctihca-
ton of our own souls, that the light OF
our faith so shine before all men that,
seeing our good works, they may be
drawn by the bonds of love and sym
pathy toward Him who is the source Of
all spiritual life and of true happiness,
the divine Saviour who has come among
us because God so loved the world that
He gave His only begotten Son that all
who would believe in Him might not
perish, but might have life everlasting.

U. G. |. Buys Gas Plant of
the Lehigh Power Company

ALLENTOWN. Pa. Dec. 26.-For
more than six months there has been
fight over the granting of a fran
chise to the American Electric Light
and Power Company. a subsidiary of
the Lehigh Valley Transit Company,
as a competitor with the Lehigh and
Northampton Light, Heat and Power
Company. The new company offered
reduced rates and many other conces-
sions, but the old company was strong
enough to block the matter In the
town council, in spite of petition by
citizens to admit the new company of
the lower rates
1t has been announced that Brown
Brothers & Co., Philadelphia bankers,
have bought all the securities of the
old company. The gas plant has been
turned over to the United Gas I'm
provement Company, and will become
part of the newly consolidated Allen
town Bethlehem Gas Company. The
electric part of the old company has
been taken by the Lehigh Valley Light
and Power Company, the electric de-
partment of the Lehigh Valley Transit
Company
Under the purchase the new owners
acquire all the rights, privileges and
franchises of the old company, and
can Immediately proceed TO do bust
ness.
The people are now demanding that
the council grant the new franchise,
and the new owners will be petitioned
to grant the concessions they orig
inally offered, although as owners OF
the old franchise by purchase they
will not need to. The purchase was a
100000 deal.

u. S. Photograph Market
Is Opened TO Foreign
Machines by Court Rule

NEW YORK, Dec. 26.-America is
an open market for foreign talking
machines, apparently. as result of
the denial by District Court Justice
Holt of an application made by the
American Graphophone Company,
manufacturers Of the dictaphone, for
an Injunction to restrain the importa-
ton and sale of q German machine
known as the Paragraph, on the
ground of patent infringement.
The decision is said to mean an
eventual cut in the price of both
business and musical monographs.
The defendant was the American
Photograph Company, American
agents for the Carl Lindstrom Com
pany, of Berlin.
The defendant alleged that The con-
tract between the American Graphic
phone Company and the Edison
Photograph Company was in viola
ton of the Sherman antitrust law.
Philip Mason Cabell, president of the
defendant company, said 1t was
matter of common knowledge that the
graphophone was invented by Edi-
son in 1880, and that his patents had
long since expired. He said other
machines merely differed from the
Edison machine in mechanical struc-
ture and that so far as the principle
was concerned America was an open
market.
