copal; church occupi,d d, the pulpit Of
the First Methodist church IN this
city Sunday. He preached at both.
morning and evening services. and,
following the morning services heldsA
brief meeting with the official board
Of the church. The question Of OBJ
tanning a minister for the local church
was cons dercd, the bishop reporting
that one man to whomfa call had been

Taking the words of the shepherds.
LET us now go even until Bethle-
HEM" as his text, Bishop Burns de-
livered a Christmas n at the
Sunday morning services of the Meth
odist church.
He spoke Of the road to Bethlehem.
the road over which the shepherds
went to see III Christ child. as a road
VI - lSIllIId6S iii OuSA LII LIE d5CS'
Over this road, in the red months Of
the war, went the English general,
Allenby. Inc his delivering hosts.
Over the city of Bethlehem now float
the flag Of civilization and the flag of
the Cross.
The road to Bethlehem is a road OF
enchantment, he sad. 1t is the
symbol of the witchery Inc the joy OF
Christmas. Over it tread the feet OF
the happy-the men and women who
have the Christmas spirit in their
hearts and who make the children OF
the world merry upon that day. The
road to Bethlehem is a road of remi-
%riscence. On Christmas day, there
are vacant places in h hearts OF
many; only the memory of one who
is gone or who is far away and only
the memory of a day that IS dead oc-
cupy those places, but it still is the
Road to Bethlehem.
And the Road to Bethlehem is the
road of democracy. Over it went
Christ on his missions to the sick and
heavy Of heart; and over it went men
and women of all classes, seeking in
Bethlehem the light. But 1t is moi
only the road of democracy, he s I'd;
it also is the road Of peace. 1t is
the symbol of what the diplomats OF
the world sought at the pace table at
Versailles-the symbol of what the
world wants, but which the world will
not get till it cries for it through
Christ. -
Bishop Burns spoke of the fact thai
the Road to Bethlehem is the symbol
of the Christmas season. season
which IS essentially childhood's. In
seeking for the dynamic force Of the
world, he said one could not find it in
the material things that one labors
for. Such forces would not keep the
world going for thirty days, he said
is found in the cradles. 1t is the love
OF the title child. the love that drives
men and women to the very extremes
nat keeps the world moving. And i,
this force which the Road to Beth
Iehem symbo!izes.
