 N was a period-say half a cen
 tury ago and less-when the religious meanings were somewhat en- feebled in the minds of many by the dazzling dominance of scientific diseov- cry and thought
 To many whatever Christmas then had of spiritual meaning was rather in the way of sentiment, of tradition. of natural good fellowship and of the spirit of practical charity.
 There was a haunting sense Of un. reality In the direct message Of the pulpit. a feeling that the historic su pernatural was much akin to the inno cence of the Santa Claus myth Itself. Since then the Christ Idea has taken new significance and proportions in those minds which are of the kind call ed skeptical, even Tn the minds over which the warrant of the supernatural has little sway or none at all.
 In books and sermons one comes upon the preaching of the idea of Christ and the message of Christianity in tone and in Il language which ap- peal with tremendous force not only to the so called orthodox. but to all SC rious minds of whatever training or tendency.-Gentury Magazine.
