AS to his birth, Christ gave no
thought to the manner of its celebra-
ton by his disciples. They do not ap-

life. Had he ever any knowledge of
the adorable stories begarlanding his
crib for us? It is hardly probable.
And, behold, that forgotten, neglected
birthday has conquered place of hon

which the Saviour might recognize his
own purposes. To speak of one aspect

has ever loved them. Let them come

unruly crowd suspected incapable of
edification. No doubt those most seri-
Gus ancestors of our traditions had &C.
casion that day and often In similar
circumstances to believe the Master
touched with insanity.
No matter, the intentions of the Son
of Man have been largely realized.
His birthday has become the day of
the children. No earthly day has shed
more brightness upon their path. No
church festival gives more life to the
Unreasonable truth OF the promise. "I
shall be with you to the end of the
world" None makes it sweeter to the
heart.
Christmas has a charm beyond them
all It was the Christian soul, filed
full with Jesus, created this festival.
Every generation has given 1t some
thing Of it's own. There has been q
rivalry Of good will. In the Eucharist,
according to a doctrine the abuse of
which must not make us forget its true
and sorrowful profoundness, Christ

ones and the grownups who can

The Wondrous Season.

Christmas-the same old story;
Sweet with its sweet old way;
The gifts and the songs and glory,
The spirit of youth and play.
Christmas--the tabled Santa,
The tree with its magic light,
The stars and the drums and trumpets.
The toys and the tinsel bright.
Christmas-no change forever;
The letters to good old Kris,
The arms of the little children
And the lips that are sweet to kiss.
'Christmas-the changeless beauty,
Older, and still so young
With its glory of childhood spirit
And its tales of the fairy tongue.
Christmas-the streets to show it,
The shops with their brilliant sight;
The windows Of charm to glow it,
The festive and magic light
Christmas-and still appealing
With it's utter glory to men
AS over their gray hearts stealing
Their boyhood comes again.
Christnnas-the same old blessing,
The holy and lovely spell
Of tenderest trust and confessing,
And the glory of all things well.
Christmas-the wondrous reason,
AS fresh in it's joy today
AS it was in the vanished visions
OF the childhoods far away.

Told For the Littlest Children

r listen dear little children, and
<you shall hear about the very first
Christmas day.
1t was in country across the sea,
far away from here, that some shep-
herds were watching their fiocks one
night. The sheep were resting on the
grass, the little lambs were fast asleep
beside their mothers, but the kind shep-
herds were not asleep. They were
watching that no harm should happen
to the sheep.
Perhaps they were looking up at the
stars and the beautiful moon above
them when suddenly there appeared
wonderful light in the sky, brighter
than the moon, or stars, as If the sky
had opened and they saw the glory
within.
While the shepherds were looking up,
wondering what was the cause of that
strange light, a beautiful shining angel
came near to them and said:
"Fear not. I bring you good tidings
which shall be to all people. This day
is born Savior, and ye shall find the
babe lying in manger.'
And suddenly the angel was joined
by multitude of the heavenly host
singing praises to God. This was their
song:
Glory to God in the highest, and on earth
Peace, good will toward men,
When the angels had gone back to
heaven the shepherds said they would
go to Bethlehem and see this Savior
of whom the angels sang. They went
and found him, a little baby, in sta
BILE, with no cradle to lie in, only a
manager for his bed. That little baby
was Jesus, who when he grew up said:
"Let the little children come unto me
and forbid them not, for of such is the
kingdom of heaven" His birthday
was the first Christmas day, and ever
since that time we kept that day as
joyful and happy one.-New York /
Press.

The Romans perceived that one day

VIM. ESMER BULLARD
WINS A COMMISSION
Popular Cobb County Boy Went In
Army as Private; Has Been
Promoted Steadily

The many friends of Esmer Bull
lard are delighted to know that he
has been promoted to End heuten-
acy in Uncle Sans army. This fact,
however, will not be surprise to
those who know him best, for all of
his friends expected him to win pro-
motion because they knew that such
an energetic, hard-working and cap
able man could not be kept down.
Lieut.. Bullard was born and raised
in Cobb County; he is son of Mr..
c.. ]. Bullard, one of our county's
best citizens; his mother was Miss
Narcissus Frey, sister of w. j. Frey
and Col. B. T. Frey, all Cobb county
citizens.
Mr.. Bullard went to Camp Gordon
as a private in April of this year, and
was commissioned a End lieutenant
in the army on September 9th, 1913.
While he was private he surren-
dered Internationally to one of our
most charming and beautiful young
ladies, Miss Annie Bell Ward, and
they were married June 29th, this
year.
The Journal, together with his
many friends and acquaintances,
heartily congratulates Lieut. Billiard
in winning this deserved promotion,
and expects him to show his worth
in the future as he has always done
in the past. His career will be watch
ed with interest.

$3.50 PAID COUNTY BY
THE SOL|c|T0R.GENERAL

Solicitor General Herbert Clay has
paid to Cobb County seven hundred
and fifty dollars in settlement of the
sr.t fled against him some months
ago by the county. In this suit it
was alleged that when Mr.. Clay was
solicitor General under Judge Pat
terson's administration when fines
were imposed on various defendants
he would collect the fines, and the
jail fees due the county and retain
these fee instead of paying them
over to the County Treasurer as it
was his duty to do.
When the suit was field Mr. Clay
filed his answer denying that he was
due the county any sum- The case
was referred to Attorney Geo. D. An
derson as auditor to hear and pass on
all the facts and report his finding to
the Court, the hearing of the case
was continued by Mr.. Clay several
times but a few days ago Mr.. Ander
son gave notice that the case had to
come to trial. Without hearing the
evidence, settlement was made by Mr..
Clay, giving two checks, one for
$4,000 which has been paid and an
ether check for $250.00, on this last
check $4,000 has been paid, when
the remainder is the paid the case
will be marked settled.
Judge Geo. F. Gober represented
Mr.. Clay and Col Joe Abbott re-
presented the county When investi-
CATION was first made of this matter
Solicitor Clay and some of his friends
were loud in their claim that it was
persecution politics. If this had
been true, he and his able attorney
would, no doubt, have fought the
case to the bitter end, but making the
settlement as he did is clear evidence
of the fact that he he'd money in his
Golfers that belonged to the county,
vet the county was forced to employ
counsel to collect from one of its
sworn officials, money that did not
belong to him.
