THE DAY OF THE CHILD
Springfield Republican.

Springfield Republican.
Mr.. Wells, in his "Outlinc of His
tory" has sought to sketch the origin
aud Development of the worlds great
religious. Yet in his description Of
Christianity he has somehow strange
ly failed to point out that which dis
tinguishcs it through all the year, and
today more than any other day in the
years course.
Christianity is the religion of the
child In the Child Of Bethlehem, IN
every child born into a Christian civ
ilization are met 'the hopes and fears
of all the years" In its symbolism
and its practice Christianity centers
around the child. The progress Of {
Christian civilization is marked ant
measured by sacrifice for the welfare
of children. Not merely for the Wor-
ship Of the Child of Bethlehem, but fol
the welfare of the children Of th'
world-sincc Christ would have 1T s.
are the kneeling magi in Bethle
hens stable today the symbol.
1t is the child who is to relalze tn
hopes and ambitions of those before
him and to avoid their mistakes
whether hopes or mistakes have to a
with the ordering of the individual llf'
or The life of world whose peoples
are drawn closer and closer and thel
common fate more and more involved
For this never-ending task, which ma.
rest heavier upon the coming gener.
alton that upon any that has preceded
it, there is needed, aboVSall else, tn;
faith of childhood, the faith tina
Christ taught when he said, "o1 sucf
is the kingdom of heaven
And as childhood recedes, the mes
sage that the day still should beal
has been phrased by the gallant per
which wrote "Thc Newcones

CAROLS BY RADIO
Springfield Republican.

Springfield Republican.
A wonderful feature Of Christmas
this year has been the broadcastlna.
Of carols. When the great CHRIST
mas tree in Madison Square Garach.
New York, began to glitter IN thc
dusk Of Christmas eve, a myriad o.
colored lights beamed "Merry Christ
mas" and at the same time the caro- s
began to sound, waited from lemotv
places bv radio and distributed BY
large amplifiers under the Christmas
tree, from which these mystic stfa1ns
seemed to come. The. crowds looked
about for bands Of singers till the;
discovered that they were llstenln:s
to an invisible choir.
1t was the first time that :he.
radiophonc had been used for thi:'
purpose, and the effect was striking
This broadcasting Of carols is also
admirably in keeping with the uni
vcrs ality OF the festival Throughout,
Christendom. A feature IS Otter
made at Christmas concerts OF rep
resentative carols from many coul-
tries. AS wireless telephony develops
it may become possible to have re;.l
exchange of Christmas music, SO that
the eager audience around publ:
Christmas tree NAV hear in Succession
the people Of many distant lanaS
celebrating the sacred festival. Longl
tude would of course have to bs
allowed for, because Christmas eve
does not begin everywhere at tbs
same time, but this could easily ne
arranged, and it seems quite certain
that the broadcasting OF carols Wi
be an increasingly popular feature
of Christmas. With the carols nigh,
we'll go bell ringing, so the carilicn>

ty of their music might be heard il
