The Christmas Rose.

TT was in Ireland | heard the beau
/ tiful legend of the Christmas rose,
says writer in the Philadelphia
Ledger. When the great night came
and the dark skies were suddenly il
Illuminated with the lights of heaven
the shepherds, gathering together their
offering, went with haste to find him
who had come to be the Light of the
world. Great rough men, full of sim
pie faith. they We're, and each carried
feet of the Good Shepherd. But among
them was one wee lad who had no
gift.
All his life long he had heard of the
Messiah who was to come. The earth
was full of rumOrS that the time was
near ut hand and lying out on the
hillside under the deep blue sky he had
dreamed dreams of that day, picturing
himself close to him in many roles.
And now that the moment was come
he raced along, his tiny legs finding it
hard work to keep up with the swift
strong stride of the men.
So full of excitement was he that no
thought of self entered into his mind.
But as he came to the cave, saw the
bright star shining above and heard
the songs of the angels he noticed his
empty hands.
How could he 90 into the presence
Of the newborn King when he had
nothing to lay ut his feet, he who
would so willingly lay down his very
life for him. He Crrpt close to the
opening, and, knccling down in the
cold white snow, he wcpt as though
his little heart would break
And, 10, the warm tears melted away
the hard snow, and from beneath there

Christmas comes all the year. Christ
mas is giving.
Christmas is losing ones life and
finding it again in the heart of another.
Wherever we find good will. humani-
ty, fellow feeling, there we find Il heart
celebrating Christmas. The most deli
cate pleasures of Christmas spring from
the gifts we make to others. from
the happiness we can impart to others,
from the abandonment of ourselves to
another's joy.
The more utterly we lose ourselves
in the lives of others the more we are
Keeping Christmas The losing of our
own life, to find it in another. is for
ever the Christmas token. 1t was of
this the herald angels sang.
1t was this the good shepherds wor-
SHIPPED.
And this is the best way of spending
Christmas.

Oriqin of the Carol.

Glory to God in the highest and on
earth peace, good will toward men.-Luke
2:lh
Such was the first carol. sung by the
holy angels amid the thrilling scene
SO IiVidly described by the evangelist
This song is happily used in the com
munion service as the opening of
'HIorta In EXcelsiS Deo." The .word
carol seems to be derived from the
Italian verb CarOlarc-to sing-imply-
ing joy song, an out6urst of exuber-
ance. In the time of Chaucer. who
died in 400, this word usually meant
simultaneous dancing and singing
Gradually its secular origin was be-
cIouded, and nowadays Il carol general
lE means Il Christmas song of thanks
giving, though there were formerly not
only Easter carols, but also winter and
even summer carOlS.-Living Church.

MAYOR BUYS
BEAN A HAT

Mayor Fawcett ordered a new
hat FOR Louie Bean Monday.
It was the result of q little bet
last week between the city's chief
executive and the street railway
manager. Bean wagered that the
city couldn't have its municipal
tideflats line running on October
1, and Fawcett risked the price OF
q hat that II would.
The city has fallen down on its
agreement because the lumber
strike has made it almost impos-
sibie to obtain an adequate supply
of material for the long viaduct
over the Milwaukee yard.
The viaduct IL completed with
the exception OF two 60-foot
spisns which have to be erected Of
|trussed lumber.
A new city street car was
brought from the paint shops 1t
Bismarck Monday and placed ON
the outer end Of the line. It will
operate between the Milwaukee
shops and Hylebos waterway. Pas
sengers will have to walk around
the unfinished viaduct.
The entire line will not be IN
operation until Oct. IL.
