CHRISTMAS.

Christmas, the happiest, sweet
est day of all the year, is at hand
It is the dearest because it is COM
memorative Of the most important
event that has occurred to man
since he lost Eden--the birth of
our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
1t is day that should be made
cheerful and happy because Chris
tianity means happiness. When
the heavenly angels came to an
nounce the coming of Christ to the
pious shepherds amid the Judean
hills they sang "Peace on earth
and good will to men" and ever
since that night that is what the
coming of the Savior meant to the
world.
Today, in every civilized land
beneath the sun, Christianity is
taught, and the world is far better
today than ever before because Of
the influence of Christianity.
Christianity has come to mean
80 much to the world, that it has
become 80 real and as much a part
of the government of the nations
as their language and their habits
and their statutory laws.
There is suffering around us,
and some people may be really
wanting the every day necessaries
of life. Let us then be happy and
do what Jesus himself did and
would have us do-make others
happy.
IF we will do this we will carry
out the real Christmas spirit.
