Observance

THERE is very little of the right
motive in. commemorative the
birth of Jesus the Savior. The
spirit of the modern Christmas is to
have good old time, feasting and
business activity, with the Holy Child
Jesus a figurehead.
Such is a very great offense to Al
mighty God. An offering to God in
the spirit of righteousness, by humility,
worship modification, in self denial
and good works, should be the first
duty in celebrating Christmas.
Really a number of hours similar to
Lent ought to be considered, after
which would come the feast and re-
joicing.
Respectful thankfulness to the Lord
God of Hosts for his love and pitysfor
q sinful race in his priceless gift Of a
Savior-such would be fitting grace
before partaking of the good things
and many blessings that he has been
pleased to bestow on all people. What
would person think in giving a re-
ception and supper to have the guests
hasten to the dining hall and devour
the food without giving the honor and
respect due to the host first? Almighty
God is treated in q similar manner in
celebrating the modern Christmas

Tbe Season
Of peace

TINE whole air at the first Christ
mastide was tremulous with JOY.
1t was q time for holy song, for
inspired paean, for seraphic song. Let
Joy come still to our homes and hearts.
Christ gives a brightness and beauty,
gAdness and glory, to the whole circle
Of life and duty. Come, Lord Jesus !!
There shall be room for three in our
homes. Once there was none in the
inn, but only in the stable. Now our
best is thine. Only honor US with thy
beneficent presence.
Let us away with strife at this sea-
son. Now is the time to speak kindly
words. Let us not carry into the new
year the enmities of the old. Let not
the harsh notes of contention come
into the heavenly song of peace.
Christ came to give peace, and from
heavens throne today he bends to give
peace to all who trust him. He was
the only person ever born into the
world who had his choice as to how he
should come. He might have come
man, as did the first Adam. He came
a babe. He inserted himself into our
race at it's lowest and weakest point.
If he were to lift the race he must
get under it. He glorified the cradle !;
he glorified boyhood; he sanctified
motherhood.
But Christ must be born in each
heart in order that we may have true
Christmas. Are we rejoicing in the
gifts of human love? Shall we be
mindful of him who is the "unspeak-
able gift Prev. DR.. Robert S. Mac
Arthur in Homiletic Review.

Date of the Birth of Christ.

'In looking through reference book
/ find the birth of Jesus Christ took
place in the year 4 B. G. How could
it possibly be?" asked correspondent
of the Philadelphia Press.
To which the reply was made:
''The attempt to date things forward
and backward from the birth Of Christ
was first made in 533 A. D. by a Ro-
man abbot, Dionysius Exigus. He re-
garded Christ's birth as taking place
in the year 754 after the founding of
Rome. Early Christians had put it in
the year of Rome 750.
"The abbot's belated attempt to date
things from Christ's birth was prob
ably inaccurate, and the proper defini-
milton Of the Christian era is that it be-
gins with January in the fourth year
Of the one hundred and ninaty-fourth
Olympiad and the seven hundred and
fifty-third from the founding of Rome.
According to the latest computation,
Christ was born in the year B. c. OF
the year B. c."

Old Mems Tow Shnn

Noah's arks, whole fleet Of them,
are off on their Christmas voyage.
Their Ravens are stockings of many
children. Their port of departure is
the Old Mems Toy Shop, opened by
the New York Association for Improv-
ing the Condition of the Poor. Here
are about 60 men-some very old, some
convalescent from illness, but not yet
able to return to their regular work
who have been at work throughout the
year making toys for the Christmas
exhibition and sale. The carved ami
mails variously mounted serve the two
fold purpose of attractive, simple toys
for children and employment for the
old men who made them. Here is one
thing, at least, that an old man may
do rather than die.-The Survey.

The Tourists Christmas.

Since the United States became
known as world power, when its vic
tories In the Spanish war had brought
1t into possession of far-off islands,
the American Christmas has reached
around the globe. East and west,
north and south, on the American con-
tinent, Americans celebrate the gala
day. In the hundred islands of the
Philippine group, in Tituila of the Sa-
moan possessions, in Hawaii, which
has become a dependency; in Guam,
the little dot in the Pacific where our
rule is in force, there are American
officials who give the occasion an off,
cial touch. In Sulu the natives make
their Christmas tree of sugar cane
I'm Paris and Rome, in London and
Berlin there are American colonies
where observance of the day is marked
with as much ceremony as their recog-
milton Of Independence day.
