New Year Resolutions

On ev'ry present New Year
Dyy e~cross ourgelves and hum
bly, say: This year we will be
better. We'll simply change our
course of life and night and morn
ing kiss the wife and write home
folks that letter. We'll gladly
pay the debts we owe and never
shall you see us SOW wild oats
and kindred grasses. Well cut
out afternoon pink tea and soda
pop and thus be from evils of the
masses. Well go to church with
thots devout, nor will we rubber
all about to see what folks amt
wearing. Well laugh at any
kind of joke proposed by any
kind of folk and cease our cussed
swearing. Well eat war bread
three days a week and try in
ev'ry way to keep our pledge for
food conserving. In short, we'll
steer the course of right, and be
it day or be it night, this course
we'll tread unswerving." But
on the morn the second day our
New Years grit has ebbed away
and life is lived as ever. We
leave our plights. for another
year when we can see our way
more clear in the magic realms
of NEVER.

The Snowflake herald., 1917-12-28

IN a place built, like Bethlehem, in
l. many cases against the soft
limestone rock it often happens
that the existence of a cave where
the house was to be was a great at
traction since it offered a ready
made, dry, above ground cellar as
well as a specially suitable spot for
the household animals and for
storeroom. It would seem that Jo-
seph was at last able to get room in
some such back portion of house,
and there, we are told, Mary bore
her divine Son.
A cave below the high altar of
the Church of the Nativity is now
shown as the very place where this
august event transpired little re-
cess, shaped like a clam shell, its
floor Of marble wrought into a star
in the center, bearing in Latin the
words, "Here Jesus Christ Was
Born of the Virgin Mary" A row
of lamps hangs round the outer
edge, the right to attend to them be-
ing a jealousy watched matter, each
of the ancient churches, the Greek,
the Latin, the Armenian and the
Coptic, having one or more of these
under its care.
The evidence for this site is so
strong that most persons accept it as
sufficient, reaching up, as it does, to
within living memory of the days of
the apostles. But even if this be an
illusion the fact remains that in this
petty village the Saviour Of the
world was made man for our re-
demption. No wonder that we read
of the anthem Of the angels, for
surely nothing could draw forth the
interest of the heavenly population
like the exceeding grace God was
showing to sinful man.
The scene of the visit of the shep-
herds is pointed out as on rough
slope, facing the village, at some
distance to the east, Bethlehem "
ing far above on its mountain seat.
One can follow the shepherds in
their journey to see the unspeakable
wonder. They would go along the
rich valley of Boaz and then up the
terraced hill by path still in use,
nor is it uninstructive to reflect
that, while simple shepherds were
led by angels to the manger, the
high priest and the great of Jeru-
salem, so near, slept through that
most illustrious night Of all history,
quite unconscious of what had hap
pened. But we know of it, and may
God grant that if we cannot go with
the shepherds to Bethlehem we may
one day go to the right hand of God
and worship him there, who that
night lay little child in Mary's
arms.-Dr. Cunningham Geikie.
