CHRISTMAS, 1917

DEFORE a Infant in Bethlehem town
- Three gift-bearing monarchs adored
While angelic choristers caroling down
Proclaimed Him the peace e-brngng Lord.
Above Him the star that had guided their feet
Its glorious radiance downpoured
As heaven and earth in a unison sweet
Rejoiced in triumphant accord.
Rude Shepherds whose focks grazed the Judean hil
Forerunners of Chrstendom's horde,
Received the glad tidngs to men Of good will
Of IsraePs kingdom restored
Today in the land of the Saviour King
The message divine is ignored
Throughout all Judea the faeful words ring,
81 bring you not peace, but the sword"
Clad in armor of might, for righteousness worn,
May the legions with tyranny warred,
Having fought the good fight Christmas morn,
There hail peace-triumphant restored.
GEORGE B. KING.
