Real Meaning Of the Day.

What with the happy hustle and
planning and working and shopping
which Christmas brings, there is real
danger that the deepest significance of
the day may be overlooked. Superb
cially. Christmas is the season Of ever
green's, OF gayly decked trees, of Santa
Claus. Of feasting and Of the giving
and receiving Of presents. But If that
IL all that it is It il not enough.
The heart Of Christmas-the meaning
that vftalizes all the observances and
perpetuates the festival throughout the
centuries-is a rude manager In an
oriental khan, wherein lay the Babe
who was the son Of Mary and Son Of
God In its very name and In its very
character Christmas II the birthday an
niversary OF the Christ Child They

Of the year who have not eyes to dis
cern In 1t the cooling, helpless. beauti
fuI Babe who In his complete human
ness warns orr hearts and who I'm his
divinity sets our spirits 70 soaring.

be satisfied or human equilibrium Is

together In some mysterious way. or

The Man Of Nazareth and what he

Peace on EARN.

Peace? Yes; that Is after all and
above all our Christmas gift. To make
Joy for others, to behold their JOY. to
rejoice I'm it, ID the Joy unspeakabie.
And why? Because it is godlike and
divine. Even so the Father joys In
our joy, and the Son perfects his joy
in completing ours. Peace Ii the prod
net Of passing out Of the human into
the divine element and activity. No
man il peaceful who cannot share, In
some faint way at least, I'm the ex-
periences of his Father and his God.
That il the only real absorption into
the divine. the perfection Of which
heather philosophy has dreamed as
its highest goal, but which the gospel
alone has brought to light and made
accessible and attainable.
How much our Christmas Sunday
has I'm store for us. May we all in
deed realize its richest treasures and
feast our souls upon them. May II be
the happiest Of happy Christmas days
that comes once more to Ms. Al We
hear our children sing. may It be the

unite with them I'm praising Christ the
Lord may his peace enter into our

A Christmas Vision.

At Christmas, when the pealing bells
Ring back our hearts to Bethlehem.
Whence the fair flower Of Jesse's stem
Eternally our love compels:
Borne ON the peal my fancy goes.
Far from the Thames and noisy Strand
To Christmas In that distant land
Where more ancient river flows
And there the deserts changeless calm
Il troubled Gods and g0ddesses,
All Egypt's monstrous deities.
Gather In fear by well and palm
The cry II heard: % Egypt. harki
We gods must die Another comes"

Altar where some oasis. spiced
With palm and lotus. charms the Nile.
The sphinx, with her mysterious smile.

The Christmas ANGEL.

Here comes the Christmas angel.
So gentle and so calm
AS softly as the falling fakes
lie comes with flute and psalm.
All In a cloud OF glory.
AS once upon the plain
To shepherd boys In Jewry,
He brings good news again.
He In the young folks Christmas.
He makes their eyes grow bright
With words of hope and tender thoughi
And visions Of delight.
Hail TO the Christmas angel!
All peace on earth he brings
He gathers all the youths and maids
Beneath his shining wings.

TO-DAY IN PUGILISTIC ANNALS.

1903-Jimmy Britt defeated Mar tin Canole in twenty-five rounds at San Francisco. This battle was de- clared to be for the lightweight title, which was claimed by Britt because Joe Cans, who had whipped Frank Erne several months before Jimmy got him, had refused to make the weight. The -Canole fight was staged at Colma, and the native son found the Irishman a hard customer. Martin stayed the full twenty-five rounds, but lost the decision on points. Canole was native of county Clare, Ireland, but started his pugilistic ca-' reer in Fall River. Before tackling Britt he had defeated Marty McCue, Joe Handler, Kid Griffo and many other good fighters. In 1904 he made another trip to San Francisco to meet Battling Nelson, and the Dane hand ed him a K o. punch in the eighteen round.

PENN TO THWART SCALPERS.
University Will Buy Ar1ny-Navy Tickets From Them: Tax Students.


 Philadelphia, Nov. 20.-The Univer- sity of Pennsylvania authorities an- nounced yesterday that they will em- ploy drastic measures to prevent tickets for the ArmyNavy game from falling into the hands of spectators. They said that they would buy every ticket possible from spectators at the advanced price and would compel the person to whom the ticket origin ally was sold to pay the difference be- tween the face value and the price paid to the speculators. Then the original buyers name will be placed on the blacklist"
 Geo. E. Nitzesche, who is in charge of the distribution of the tickets, said that every ticket sent out by the Uni- versity of Pennsylvania Monday would be- recorded by the committee and the name of the purchaser placed beside the number of the ticket. Several men will be designated to go around the street and buy all tickets possible from the Pennsylvania allotment at the price asked.

PUGILJSTS PATRIOTIC,
Boxing Editor Denies Complaint
 2ardling Spirit of Glove WieldcI's.

Correspondence of The Associated
 Press.)
 London, Nov. 2O.--Somebody com plaint about the lack of patriotism among the pugilists. has brought out a spirited letter from a boxing editor, who says that were he to give a list of all the professional boxers who have joined the colors since the declaration of war he would have to fill several newspaper columns. He gives a few names of men who have exchanged the twenty-four foot ring for a less circumscribed arena. They are worth recording:
 "Dick Smith, our light-heavyweight champion: Bandsman Rice. challen- ger for that title; Bandsman Blake who may be said to have really sound chance of anneXing the middle weight belt; Pat O'Keefe. the actual hclder; Tom Mccormick and Johnny Pasham, both of whom have been promised chances of contestine for the welterweight title: Petty Officer Cur ran, one of our leading heavyweights: Seaman Hayes. the famous feather weight, with a host of engagements: Symonds of Plymouth. a practical cer- tainty for f1yweight honors.'

NATIONAL PILOTS
 JOBS ARE FILLED
Selection Of BTcsnahan for Cubs
 Ends Managerial Problems.

Roger Bresnahan, the one time fiery catcher of the New York Giants, will lead the Chicago Cubs in the 1915 campaign. Yesterday in Gin cinnati Roger signed d three years contract as manager of the Chicago Nationals. The document was drawn at the offices of Charles P. Taft be- tween Bresnahan and President Thomas of the club.
 Bresnahan's appointment clears the National league atmosphere in several spots. It relegates once more to the common ranks the long suffering Henry O'Day. Gov. Tener of the Ma tional league has assured Hank d hearty welcome to his old berth on the umpiring staff, and it is likely that O'Day will avail himself of the position. He returned to the arbiter's job once before after he had failed to lead the Cincinnati Reds out of the wilderness.
 Baseball men interpret Bresnahan's s. promotion as further slap at Charles Weeghman and the Federal league. During his negotiations for the Chicago Nationals and while he held an option on Charles P. Taft's stock the packer of the Chicago Fed erals insisted upon the privilege of placing Joe Tinker in command of the Cubs in case he was successful in purchasing that club.
 Bresnahans elevation to the lead ership of the Cubs has no doubt set tied all of the National leagues man. agerial problems for 1915. He and Pat Moran of the Philles will be the only new entrants next season un- less Fred Clarke sewers his connec- tion with the Pirates.
 Clarke has threatened to retire to his ranch. Last years failure With the Corsairs made the fans of Pitts burg forget the accomplishments Of a dozen previous campaigns. Fred Clarke is one of the really great man. agers of the game, but apparently an unwise trade with St. Louis-one of the very few bad swaps he ever made injured him irreparably in the Smoky City.

There was no man that expressed greater joy than Sheridan did when the Lusitania docked at New York Sheridan was at any rate back on home soil. As Comiskey was the sick man of the party, for whom fears were expressed. Sheridan felt that a jinx was in their wake on the final stages Of the trip.

Sp0rt0graphy
 BY "GRAVY."
BY "GRAVY." !"

Birthday congratulations are due today to George Stovall long the old standby at first base for the Cleve- lard Maps and for years manager. George is a Show-me stater by birth having been born at Leeds Mo-, just thirty-three years ago today. His early ambition was to be pitcher, and in 1902 he was given a tryout in the box by the Seattle club of the Pacific Northwest league. He twirled in only one game, in which he strained his wing so badly that he had to abandon his twirling aspira- tions. He then went to Pendleton, Ore, and spent the season playing in the Inland Empire circuit, and later With the Portland club. He covered the initial bag for Portland so we'll that his reputation spread throughout the west, and the next season he was signed at an increased salary to play in the Pacific National league. He was with San Francisco and Salt Lake City in that circuit, and again tried his twirling arm, but with poor suc- cess. In 1904 Stovall accepted an of fer to assume the mana gem ent of the Burlington club in the Iowa State league, but in mid-season he was bought by Cleveland, and on the Fourth of July, 1904, made his debut under the main tent.
 During his long career with the Ohio metropolis, from 1904 to 1911. Stovall made a reputation as the "Ole Reliable" of the initial bag. There was nothing spectacular about his style of play, but he was steady and always Johnny on the spot, especially
  casions Cleveland relegated him to the bench and tried more sensational and showy players at first, but in the end Stovall was always recalled.
 George began his career as a big league manager in 1911, when he was made chief of the Maps on the resig- nation of Jim McGuire. Cleveland finished third that season. In 1912 he was hired to pilot the St. Louis Browns, and tried to put some life in that moribund outfit, but failed. The Browns finished seventh in 1912 and the next year landed in the cellar. When ne was deposed as leader of the Browns, Stovall jumped to the Feds, and this year managed the Kansas City outlaw club. He had good club but the assertion of Pitchers Kahler and Banding put the team on the blink, and Stovall was lucky to finish sixth. 4..
 Frank l.. Kramer, the American champion bicycle racer, will be thirty four years old today. He has fol- lowed the cycling game since he was a kid in his teens and this year he won his fourteenth American cham pionship, besides capturing the worlds title. According to the figures compiled by the Cycle Racing asso- citation, Kramer is not only the champion, but is also the pluto crat of the pedal-pushing game. Dur ing the past outdoor season he drew down $1O,511 for his end of the money, his nearest competitor, Walter Rutt. the German rider, getting away with only $5,976. Alfred Goullet, the Australian, who gave Kramer a great tussle for the championship this year and lost to the American by four points after a season of title races ex- tending through several months, got away with 5,122. The indoor races have boosted these earnings by nice and juicy sum.
