his plantation. The meat cannot be
told from that of sheep, and finds
ready sale on the home market.

partment officials declared the ques-
ton of whether ship so engaged

When it was suggested to officials

neutrality, it was pointed out thai
there had been cases before the fed
eral courts in which this point arose
and it had been ruled that the charter

press dispatches telling of the desper-
ate attempts of the Armenian to es-
cape, and if official reports should
bear out these accounts the incident
will have little connection with the
American negotiations with Germany

AEaNOINETEEN hundred years 1Nl ago star poised above . N& lowly manager in Bethle- ESS[ hem, and above the moon. lit hills of Judea the an. gels heralded the beginning of the life of Jesus Christ upon this earth. And once more the birthday of the Saviour approaches.
 How fast these festal days follow one another! Only few days ago was penning Thanksgiving day mes sage. Now we are looking forward with happy hearts and bright antici. pations to Christendom's great gift. giving day.
 Gratitude inspires in us the grace of giving.
 Gratitude is the great original source of noble living and service. just as sin is the original source and root of all selfishness. The great all seeing eye of God, as 1t surveys this planet, with all it's scenes of revelry and it's riot of sin, beholds but one fostering ulcer-selfis gaSes upon one thing of great beauty-grati. tude-which recognizes in every need of man the voice of God.
 The immortal Frances B. Willard said q regard ingratitude as one of the basest of sins."
 The Psalmist said: What shall render unto the Lord for all his good ness to me?" Then answers his own question by saying: T will take the cup of salvation and call upon the name of the Lord"
 faced the question, of our obligation to Almighty God. There are thousands of heavy-hearted, world-worried men and women who win never find life worth living until their lives are linked with Jesus Christ.
 There is no safety save in service. We must use or lose. The Dead sea gives nothing out. and that's why it Is dead. Many lives are like the Dead sea. If you would have the joy of Christmas, you must find 1t in doing what Jesus did. He went about do ing good. No one will ever find the Christian secret of happy life save by trying to make it easier for others to do right and harder to do wrong.
 There is joy in lifting any burdens of others. as the little girl found 1t who was carrying her baby brother across the street. He was almost as big as she was.
 Isn't he heavy?" asked a passer-by.
 "Oh. no; he's my brother" You cannot be a Christian without being good fellow in the sense of trying to help others to be good. or, as someone has put it. Except you erect the cross in your own heart, Jesus will profit you nothing" o Holy Child of Bethlehem. Descend on us, we pray; Cast out our sin and enter in; Be born in us today.

Washington.-General Carranza has
abandoned his blockade OF the port OF
Progreso on urgent representations by
he United States. The gunboat cara
yoza has been called off and two Ameri.
can ships laden with sisal for the
United States were cleared Saturday
without interference.
Rear Admiral Caperton. commanding
he American fleet in Mexican waters,
reported the raising of the blockade
and reported that the Zaragoza has re-

new. note, sent by President Wilson on
Ms Vay to Carranza giving notice that
the United States was determined to
raise the blockade and II necessary use
the cruiser Des Moines to do so.
The seriousness Of the situation
growing out OF the blockade OF Pro-
greso was pointed out by Secretary
Houston Of the department of agricul'
ture who advised the president that
200 100000 pounds of twine are used
each year in the United States in bind
ing grain, fax and corn crops, and that
line-tenths OF the supply is made from
,isal grown in Yucatan and exported
through Progreso.
II became known that last week the
Mexican gunboat had stopped one
American ship with a shot across her
bows, had held up another and had in.
terfered with British shipping.
Telegrams from manufacturers and
farmers in the grain growing states
pouring into the White House and the
state department pointed out that un,
less sisal were obtained through Pro
greso the harvesting OF this years
grain crop by the usual methods would
be embarrassed and would have to be
done almost entirely by hand. Secre
.ary Houston said the situation was a
very serious one for the grain states
