CAROL SERVICE AT
 TRINITY EPISCOPAL CHURCH

On earth peace good will toward men, was the subject of the Christmas sermon delivered by Rev. J. Eldred Brown, rec tor. at the Sunday morning service at Trinity Episcopal church. The text was Luke 3: 14.
 In part Rev. Mir. Brown said To the Christian believer. the joy of this day is a holy joy. And that because to the Christian believer the day stands for the l fact that there is nothing in God which | may not come into close and permanent | union with man. This fact of the Incar- nation, this birth of the Son of God into | human flesh, gives us the most hopeful and assuring promise of an abiding worth and existence. For in that rude cradle | in Bethlehem was contained in germ not 1 only the fulfilment of the angelic song of | Peace on earth, good will toward men ' but the whole earthly life of Christ, His 1 whole gospel; yes, the whole magnificent history of Christianity down to this day 1 and even to the end of the world.
 Try for moment to picture to your selves what that has meant to the world l what broad river of benevolence has
 flowed from it to- all parts of the earth
 what it has meant for the sinner, the | sufferer, for women and children; fol | all those unfortunates whom the heather
 world has always neglected or killet | off; for the darkness of fleathenism, tn, cruelties of barbarism, the prisoner ant
 the outcast The truth was empha sizeC
 Dy the preacher that the peace and goot
 Will or the gospel can come only to thos
 who obey Gods moral law, whether indi
 viduals. groups or nations Selfshness
 greed, lust for wealth or power Is
 breeder of i'll will and unrest whereye
 It is found. Glass selfshness and nation
 al selishness are as blameworthy as in
 diyidual selflshness, and far more disas l trous
 :. The speaker closed with a reference t
 the happy promises of future peace, a
 foreshadowed by the Washington confer ence and the probability of Irelands rat! dcation of the pending treaty.
 At o'clock in the afternoon a cart service was held in the church.

GOLD STILL POURING INTO AMERICA

A Gibraltar Of yellow metal has accumulated III the

on June $3.l730371S. and every day the pile Is
growing larger 1t is the colossal accreon of

ma ximum altitude that of May l. 1917, says report.
Since the first Of this the nations Of the four cor

600 From Australia Africa and islands of the Pacific
1000 has been received The totals swell
ing as the eyes read these figures
There is mystery to this torrent OF gold which Is
puzzlng to the wsest and most experienced fnancers
What will be the results in the worlds commerce! Will
benefit the business Of the United States will
disaster be the consequence!
Massng of gold generally is indicative of accelerat
ing prosperity and rising prices Increases of prices gen
orally lead to initiation of credit AS the present gold
store mounts higher however prices declining and
the prevailing depression is becoming intense The
accumulation of gold is characteristic of period of
reaction and liquidation and to the extent that
are augmenng there is nothing peculiar to the
ment The exceptional feature is that America is drawing
the precious metal from all lands in the world
America cannot keep this mountain of gold If it did,
there would be such initiation of credit and such
great rise in prices that the worst commercial and fnan
lcal cataclysm would Business would be wrecked
for So must infer that this immense stock of
gold will be of the vital factors in restoring universal
prosperity and large portion of it will glow out to all
parts of the earth.
The process of liquidation is lowering prices in the
United States Expectation of gold will raise prices in
other lands The general equalization will enable the
