Christmas Chrrr

We should be filled with the won-
der of the coming of Christ in VIM
ter. Within the hearts he turns the
wildness, the bleakness, the shiver Of
December, into the music and glad
ness of June. How wonderful is the
way in which God provides for US!
We are nearing Christmas. Our
hearts grow young again at the
thought. Old age has a blither move
ment. Our hearts grow tuneful with
the thought of Christ's coming in the
winter time. Christmas rings JOY
bells in the steeple of our souls be-
cause it is so full of gift giving, and
so full of precious memories, and so
full of fatherhood, and motherhood,
and childhood. Two great days stand
out in Gods calendar of days, Easter
and Christmas. The king of the
grave and Lord of eternity was truly
born in a Manager. He was in wo-
mans arms, receiving mothers
kiss, and had a woman's tears OF
gladness drip upon his cheeks.
Christ is born in Bethlehem" That
is the rapture Of redeemed hearts.
May God be born in Redwood Falls.
The Christ of Christmas can radiate
through his universe beams brighter
than any sun that ever climbed the
horizons rim, to brighten our lives,
no matter how dark they may be.
May Christ come to everybody S
heart, and to everybody's house. He
can teach our hands the art of con-
sideration, and caressing, and our
hearts are art of generosity. He can
fill our marching steps with happy
anticipation of Gods eternal Christ
mas time of joy, and of gladness, and
song, and the endless music of Para
disc.

Thr ftrst Uhristmas

Christmas, the anniversary of the
worlds greatest event, is the gladdest
festival of all the year. The faces
Of the young are full Of joy; the old
err people forget their age and seem
young again; even the sick and de-
crepit forget their infirmities amidst
so much happiness.
What is the reason for all this
More than nineteen hundred years
ago a child was born in the village Of
Bethlehem, helpless child it was,
just like the children of today. This
child was wrapped in swaddling
clothes and laid in manger. Mary,
its mother, is with the child, and
Joseph, it's foster-father. And the
birth of this child is the cause and
source of all such gladness in the
hearts of Christians, nineteen hun
dred years after it's has come to pass.
Strange, is it not? No. The story
is not all told. From heaven comes
message saying that this child is
no ordinary child. Though born so
lowly, the entire heavenly host pays
homage to it. Not far from Bethle-
hem the angelic choir, all the heaven
ly host, proclaim to the lowly shep-
herds tending their flocks this glor-
ious news: Behold, l bring you good
tidings of great joy, which shall be
to all people. For unto you is born
this day, in the city of David, Saw
ior, which is Christ the Lord" This
is the reason for all the joy we behold
on Christmas-a Savior is born. This
child the Savior! Why, that is the
miracle of all miracles-this child
the very God! Mary's Son, Gods
Son! Oh, an impenetrable mystery
Verify, Pauls saying to Timothy is
true: Great is the mystery of Godli-
ness: God was manifest in the flesh. >
Though it is an inscrutable mys-
terry, the fact remains. Unbelievers
may scott and laugh, but that does
not overthrow the fact. And what if
we cannot understand it? Are there
not thousand things in the universe
we do not understand? God be prais-
ed. we need not understand it. JOS
eph and Mary did not understand 1t.
The shepherds who heard the angels
song did not understand it. The Wise
Men who came from the East to adore
the Christ-child did not understand it.
Peter did not understand it, Paul,
the greatest of all the apostles, did
not understand it; yes, the very an
gels in heaven do not understand it;
the mystery is too deep even for
them; they desire to look into it.
But though the how of the incarna-
ton of the Son of God remains a
mystery, Christian faith, kindled by
God Himself, grasps the revealed
fact: "The Word was made flesh
full of grace and truth" and thanks
Him for His unspeakable gift-the
Savior of the human race.

Gest We 1nrupt

The more we study events today
the more we see the people in all
parts of the world turning their eyes
to Bethlehem during the closing day
of the month Of December. More
people are visiting the Holy Lard
than ever in the history of the
world, which impresses US with the
fact that the Child Jesus is more and
more making His influence felt over
the whole world. We may object to
the spirit in which some may come,
whether as tourists in the Holy Land
Or in their observance of this special
season, but be that as it may, the
whole thing indicates the great influ-
ence of Jesus on the world. 1t might
be we'll for all Of US that we would
turn aside just for brief time dur
ing the season and think of groups
who came to see the Babe, who they
were and how they came.
The lowly shepherds came in res
ponse to the song of the angels. They
came in reverence. The jazz music
of today is entirely out of place in
connection with Christmas time and
its observance. Only such as the
Holy Night, which breaths the deep
est reverence is possible. Not only
in the Christmas music but also in art
do we find that same deep spirit of
reverence shown.
But we must not forget that we
find the Wise Men in the group COM
ing to see the Babe as well. They
come to worship and bring gifts to
the new King born at Bethlehem. The
outstanding spirit of the Wise Men
was the spirit of worship. We cannot
help but catch that idea as we read
the bit of history concerning them
May we catch the spirit of both shep-
herd and Wise Men as this Christmas
season. DR.. J. p. LINN.

There this man was with all his
wealth and ability. He might have
accomplished great good for God. But
there was mot room in the inn"
What an opportunity he missed!
You know people today who are
like that inn. They are so busy with
life. They have so many important
engagements. There is mo room in
the inn," ever, for the Master. So
they rush madly on through life until
it is too late.
You know people in every COM
munity who are so busy exchanging
gifts at this season of the year, when
we should remember Him who comes
with the greatest gift, Life" itself,
that when he comes there is mo room
in the inn."
Every mans life is little Bethle-
hem inn.
At some time or other there comes
a gentle knocking at the door. In
some mems lives the knocking must
come repeatedly before the door
swings open.
Behold, I stand at the door, and
knock" Jesus whispers. But so many
modern human inns are already sc
full of other dodgers that there is nc
more room to be had.

''She brought forth her first-born
son E. and laid Him in a manger, be-
cause there was no room for them in
the inn"
EVERY MANS LIFE IS A LITTLE
BETHLEHEM INN.
There is a beautiful story in the
Gospel by Matthew that has always
stood out very wildly in my memory
as one of the most appealing of my
mothers bedtime stories in those
happy childhood days, long gone by.
1t is an old, very old story. 1t has
to do with that little hotel in Bethle-
hem, the inn, and an ancient Old
Home Week. Caesar Augustus, who
them was emperor Of Rome, had is
sued an order for a census of all the
world, and every one had to return to
his old home town to register.
What Homecoming week it was!
For the little town of Bethlehem it
was week far exceeding the widest
anticipations of the most optimistic
citizens. Every family found Its
house full of returned loved ones and
friends. Those who had been away
so long that they had lost trace of
their friends or relatives who had re-
manned behind, had to put up at the
little hotel.
So when Joseph, the young carpen-
ter from Nazareth, arrived with his
weary bride, everything in modern
hotel terms, was "full up"
Why? Why was Jesus born in a
stable? Because the people in the
inn were vicious or hostile? Not at
all. The inn was full, that was all;
every room was taken by folks who
had affairs to attend to and money to
spend. 1t was busy. The Bible mere
ly says, "There was no room in the
inn."
Mems lives are sometimes like that
inn. You know men whose health is
gone; men whose taste for reading
and music and art is gone; men who
have literally no interest in life be-
yond the office, which has become a
mere treadmill whereon their days
are ground away.
In the process of being successful
they have sacrificed success. Never
once forgetting themselves, they have
forgotten everything else. This is
not Jesus idea of what life should
be. He who refused to turn aside
from His business to become king,
was never too busy to turn aside for
a sick man, a friend, little child
He never forgot that one night His
mother stood on a threshold where
there was no welcome-the threshold
of the little inn in Bethlehem. 1t
was so busy that the greatest event
in history knocked at it's doors-and
could not come in.
There is another story that Jesus
tells which has an application in this
connection. 1t is about a man whose
only thought was amassing grea,
wealth. Because he controlled sc
much goods, he finally decided te
tear down his treasury, his ware.
house, his barns, and build larger
ones.
And God said to that man. "Thor
fool, this night thy soul shall be re.
quired of thee"
What shall it profit man, if he
