plain song of the shepherds? The
one praising their God, the other
J greeting the Child! Add thereto the
offering of the Kings to their King
of Kings, and you have the true char
acter of the joy as we may express
it in our Christmas music.
That greatest of musician-popes of
modern times, the gentle Shepherd,
Pope Plus Tenth, said in his instruc-
ton on sacred music, that the three
essentials of that music are: sanctity,
: universally, and goodness of form, i.
| e., true art.
| Thus, the music expressing the joy
of the glad tidings of the Birth of the
! Child should possess sublimity, nobil.
ity-the Song of the Angels praising
God; simplicity, the necessary human
greeting to the Child; propriety, decor
business; the offering of the Three
Kings to a Fourth.
The absence Of any of these quail
! ties, or what often follows, the sub
| stitution of the reverse: vulgarity,
| compleXity, improperly, renders our
musical offering unworthy
The classic music of the masters,
Haydn, Mozart, Beethoven, as regards
| their mass compositions, lacks Pro-
| priety, infusing an active naturalistic
spirit so contrary to the meditative at
titude of the Three Wise Men. The
| French and Italians well past the mid
| die of the nineteenth century, who
sought to throw the pigmy shadow of
the grand opera over the majestic
! towers of Notre Dame, fail in two
! respects: there is neither holiness nor
, simplicity in their works Lastly,
| many of our own composers, unfortu-
, nately those most heard in our
, churches, are ignorant of the three
characteristics, which is most clearly
shown in their imitation of sentimen-
tai ballads. These can have no place
at the manager of Bethlehem, at least
1t is also noticeable that individuals
are not mentioned in the Story of the
Nativity; even the Kings of entirely
different races come in group. The
choral character of the music of the
Church in contrast to solo singing is
thus proven to be the ideal, from
whatever viewpoint we may wish to
regard it. We may comprehend how
Peace on Earth" can only follow if
our Gloria in EXcelsis" is free from
the spirit of individualism that has
sent its advance messengers through
the literature and the art of the last
decades, and that has come to dis
sonant climax in the fearful punish
ment in Europe. Those Three Kings
did not war upon each other
Let us choose music then, or bet
ter, use that which Holy Church has
produced and preserved for us, sub
lime, universal, and proper. She, pos
sesSing the great art-wOrk, the Sacred
Liturgy, knows the fundamental secret
Of contrast. The greatest feasts are
preceded by seasons OF abnegation,
. and these again in turn are relieved
: by days of joyous anticipation (fOr
instance the third Sunday of Advent,
the Fourth of Lent.
May our happiness be temperate
through propriety, intensified by child
like alteration, and sublime in the con-
temptation of the Child Jesus as God
of Heaven and Earth. May the. Sa-
cred chants heighten this happiness
and so assist in bringing peace into
our hearts.

THE CHRISTMAS SPIRIT IN
SACRED MUSIC.

If there is a predominant mood
throughout the many-hued and wonder
fully contrasted liturgy of the Church
year, it is the one of joyousness, as
expressed in the liturgical texts and
with the aid of all the arts which have
been admitted to the service of the
Most High, writes Philip Bansbach.
More especially is this JOY apparent
at the Feast of the Nativity and gives
second place only to the amending

ton. Music takes precedence in ex-
pressing the more human rejoicing of
the Feast of the Child Jesus. Was

Attention Turned to Tractor.
Lord Lee 1t was who suggested the tractor
scheme for breaking up the soil OF farms tnen

blowing up the grass lands of the big estates.
1t was in the minds of all those men connected
with the food production department to make

Originally II was planned to adopt small
tractor as standard. and turn them out by the
thousand In British factories standardized Some
. 5000 would be needed to do the job thoroughly,
II was thought. Sudden urgent demands on the
factories for increased supplies of munitions
caused the abandonment Of the first plan, and
the next step was to order the first shipment Of
small tractors from America.
Weeks and months were lost testing ont the
initial lot Of machines and then, after desirable
