The Newborn Kinq.

To the superficial skeptic it may
seem some ground for doubling the
divine character of Jesus Christ that
he should be born in a stable and laid
I'm a manger and the first cOurtiers of
the young King of the Jews should be
the rude shepherds of Bethlehem. But,
to him who thinks. these difficulties be-
come rather evidences of his glorious
character and beneficent mission TO the
human race. Between the stable of
Bethlehem and the marble palace OF
the Caesars in Rome there can be. in
the sight of God. only the difference
between two little things. for all that
is created must be little in the sight
of the infinite God. And as the mis-
sion of Christ was TO elevate the help
less and the poor it was eminently suit
able that he should be born among
them. For those who are weak enough
to be scandalized at his poverty we
saw, Behold the kings of the east are
PROSTATE at his feet, offering their
gold. incense and myrrh. Being wise
men. they we'll understood that the lit
tie tinsel of earthly splendor was not
essential to such a royalty as his
Archbishop Ryan.

"Bookbinder'' is holiday time diver
sion that looks simple and tame, but
can be made highly exciting. Any
number of persons sit in circle. each
holding a book on the back of his
clinched fists. One who has been chO
sen bookbinder and stands in the mid-
die of the circle goes to any player
and, Selling that players book, at
tempts to rap his knuckles. which the
holder of the book tries to avoid by
pulling back his hands quickly.
If the bOokbinder succeeds in this
the player whose knGckles he raps
changes places with him; otherwise he
replaces the book and tries to do the
same with some one else. The book
binder may pretend to seize a book
without actually doing so. and if the
holder pulls away his hands so that tie
book falls he must take the leader 5
place as if his knuCkles had been rap
ped.
The leader can make this game very
exciting if he runs quickly from one
TO another. pretending TO take up one
book and then seizing another.

Religious Significance Of
Christmas

~ HRISTMAS has new meanings
as the years go on. There
~ was a periOd-say half cen
tury ago and less-when the
religious meanings were somewhat en-
feebled in the minds of many by the
dazzling dominance of scientific discoV-
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 TN
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 in 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 APP
peal with tremendous force not only
to the so called orthodox. but to all Sc
rious minds of whatever training or
tendency.-Century Magazine.

Gifts for thee,

Christmas gifts for thee,
Grand and free!
Christmas gifts from the King of Love,
Brought from his royal home above,
Brought to thee in the faroff land,
Brought to thee by his own dear hand.
Promises held by Christ for thee,
Peace as river flowing free,
Joy that in his own Joy must live
And love that infinite love can give.
Surely thy heart of hearts uplifts
Carols of praise for such Christmas
gifts.

Christ the Shepherd.

1t is certainly significant of the mis-
sion of Christ that shepherds should
be the particular recipients of the
angelic message. In beautiful parable
the Master called himself the Good
Shepherd. There il not one Of he
ordinary vocations of our busy life
which has not in it ennobling and
divine elements. answering fidelity
Is the secret of honor.
