st. Nicholas seems to have been the
original of our Santa Claus. He was
the bishop of Myra about the year
300 and was very popular because OF
his good deeds and kindness, especial
ly to children, whose patron saint he
is supposed to be. An old legend says
that he wished to secretly bestow a
gift upon an old nobleman who,
though poor, did not want anyone to
know Of his poverty. When the good
bishop reached the house he saw the
old gentleman asleep by the fire, SO
he climbed to the top of the chimney
and dropped his gift into it, thinking
1t would fall on the hearth. But it
happened that the money fell into one
Of the old gentleman's stockings,
which his daughter had hung up to
dry, where 1t was found and used as
a dowry for his eldest daughter And
the story goes on to say that st.
Nicholas never failed to put a gift
in the stockings which were hung up
for him thereafter when a daughter
Of the house was to marry.

FESTIVAL FOR THE YOUNG
Opportunity of Christmas of Bringing
Happiness to Children Should Not
Be Passed BY.

Christmas, the celebration of the
birthday of the Divine Child, is Pc
culiarly the children's festival. And
while it cannot. too. but be time of
special rejoicing among grown-ups, we
realize after all. that it has no other
charm to compare with the pleasure
we take in some kiddy's delight over
the doll or drum or picture book that
our special Santa Claus has brought
him.
This opportunity of making some
child's Christmas one of SURPRISING
joy, of which he will carry a gracious
and ennobling memory into after life,
years, it may be, after our direct in
fiuence for good or evil will have
ceased forever-this opportunity Of
giving pleasure is one of the best
that life has to offer us. And per-
haps the greatest opportunity is his
who in place Of home times, has the
wide, gray world of homeless, loveless,
unhappy childhood from which to
choose the most needy recipient of his
Christmas giving. The chances of
giving happiness in this way are SO
many, the means SO simple, and the
deed itself SO worthy, that no one of
us should let the season pass unim-
proved.

So let us believe that God has not al

through His word. have been much
interested in his letters and pray God
TO bless Der in searching the scrip
lures. And let us think of this. The
Latin Vulgste was the Roman Catho-
lie version of the Hebrew and st. Jer-
ONE found it was not accurate, and a
new Latin translation was made from
the Hebrew but was only partially ad-
opted by the church Between the Sth
and the 10th centuries the old and new
translations were combined and made
up the Vulgate now in use by the Ro-
mans But King James LIST has given
rs the authorized version in the year
1911. He used "a of his most learned
men. And then some error being
found in the year 1870. the House of
Convocation of the Province of Can
terbury appointed eight members of
the upper and and eight of the lower
house. And these took with them
number of the best scholars of Great
Britain and America. and in 1884 they
gave us our present authorized YER
sion. They had the help of men like
John d. Wycliffe, William Tyndale,
and many others. Tyndale was
thorough scholar, and instead of MAX
ing his version at second hand from
the Latin, be took it directly from
the original tongues Tyndale was a
brave, GodfeariDg man, and for his
strict adherence to his faith in Jesus
he was strangled at the stake and his
body burned to ashes on FridV, Oct.
8. 1886, by the Papal church. Oh,
can't we trust bible in full, given to
us through such sacrifices. And many
of the followers of Jesus have suffered
such treatment. Let us take Gods
word as given to us, and If we don't
see alike ask God through prayer and
fasting when necessary to let the true
light shine into our hearts. Talking
together, but never striving
about words to no profit God has
made us brothers and sisters, so let
that brotherly kindness and sympathy
rule in our hearts, and especially for
the sinners.
