GOSPEL TALKS
THE CHRISTMAS MESSAGE

This is a faithful saying, and
+orthey of all acceptation, that
esus Christ came into the world to
1--we sinners, of whom l am the
khief." - Tim. lis.
Beneath all the commercializing
Christmas, one fact remains un-
hanged. That is tn" Christmas CO.
'bmemorates the coming into the
Srorld Of the Son of God That was
| Ine of the most significant events
Iver to take place on this earth. The
BID Testament writers looked for
| kard to the day when the Virgin
kould conceive and bear a Son and
! AN His name 'Immanuer' or God
kith-us.' In the fulness of time that
av came and the Son of God as
EImed flesh and became man that
h might bring us to God. That day
as proclaimed by an angel to hum
lie shepherds in Judean hills in
kese words, Behold, l bring you
|ood tidings of great joy, which
hall be to all people. For unto you
born you this day in the city of
kavid a Saviour which is Christ the
Lord" - Luke 2:l0, II.
/ The message of the angel was that
Saviour was born. His coming
las related to sin. He came to save
|nners. He came because,
There was no other good enough
To pay the price-of sin:
he only could unlock the gate
Of heav'n and let us in"
he Himself said that He came "tO
|eek and to save the st."--Luke
l9I0 We lose the significance of
the manger if we do not connect it
Nth the cross.
Christ Jesus came into the world
10 save sinners" All of us are great
sinners. He is a great Saviour. At
his Christmas season recognize your
heed of His salvation and join in the
oraver of the Christmas hymn.
10 Holy Child of Bethlehem,
Descend to us we pray:
East out our sin, and enter in,
Be born in us today"

Christmas Carols seem fitting at
this season. Can we spare time to
read one? Its by Phillips Brooks,
not the best ever written. perhaps,
but its delicate, spirited-and short.
THE earth has grown old with its
burden of care, but at Christmas
1t always is young, The heart of
the jewel burns lustrous and fair.
And It's soul full of mus c bursts for
tn on the air, When the songs of
the Angels is sung, - On the sad and
the lowly, the wretched and poor,
The voice of the Christie child
shall fall; And to every blind
wanderer open the door OF hope
that he dared not to dream of be-
fore, - With sunshine of welcome
for all. The feet OF the tImblest
may walk in the field Where the
feet of the HoIiest trod This then
is the marvel to mortals revealed -

Christmas. Celebrating Christ's
Birth. suggests the matter of the
Virgin Birth. Certainly the manner
of birth is as well attested as any
fact in the New Testament. A mir
acle, yes, so is the resurrection. 1t
establishes the dual nature Of the
Savior man and God in one-He
lived the human life from Concept

doubters can deny the Savior as be

was no Virgin Birth there was no

u. S.-Made Machines
Taken From Mukden
By Reds Described
By George Weller
Foreign Correspondent Of The Sior and
the Chicago Daily News

He SHieu9o 6oiiy NEWS
II MUKDEN, Manchuria, Mar. 1e
Delayed Nowhere, perhaps, has
the Russian appetite for American
machinery been more outstandingly
demonstrated than in Manchuria S
former industrial center of Mukden
Il The dismantled, looted, empty
factories of the heatless, waterless,
plague-ridden Mukden of today
bear witnesses to this Soviet desire,
especially, for universal machines.
Almost every machine of value
more than so per cent of which
were imported in 1910 from the
United States-once operated for
japanese benefit by American pris-
oners from Corregidor and Bataan
have been removed to ASiatic Russia
in lease-lend trucks.
Factories Stripped.
In ManShu Kosaku Kikai (the
Manchu Machine Tool Coz for ex-
ample, closed since the Russians
expelled the American prisoner team
under Maj. Brian Brady, icicles
grow long from shattered roofs
and snow drifts through empty
halls. OF $50 valuable lathes made
by Heald Co., Worcester, Mass,
and Brown & Sharpe Co. of Provi-
dence, r. l., only 20, mostly broken,
remain. -Four large American-made
radlal drills were taken by the
Russians. They tore heavy General
Electric motors from the travelling
overhead cranes. They even strip
ped the fuseboxes.
From a corner of one former
american prison shop seven big
cincinnati made Van Norman
grinders are missing. There is only
double cluster of sandbags where
once stood two costly Giddings and
Lewis boring machines-the only
two in Manchuria.
Grinder Removed.
Another Soviet prize was the
grinder made by the Gleason works
OF Rochester, N. Y. OF other nearbv
nve-ton planer machines, made by
Niles-Bement-Pond in Plainfield.
N. j., the Soviets chose to leave only
one behind.
"AcAA VAC ICuoSldll guards NOW re-
moved from these factories for the
nrst time IN six months, your cor
respondent was able today to visit
one of the largest plants in the
world, the famous Mukden arsenal.
He found "a shops wholly or par
TALLY looted. All general usage
machines up to about five tons in
weight had been removed. Obsolete
equipment and special machines for
particular arms, like Jap mortars
and antiaircraft guns not readily
assimilated into the Soviet war in
dustry had been left behind.
At the Manchurian airplane fac
tory, WHICH the writer also visited
today as the first foreigner since
the Soviets left, it was the same
story
Nothing but empty ringbolts in
the floor, where machinery had
once stood, and wrecks of aluminium
fighters stacked in the corner with
red stars daubed on them by merry
making Russian soldiers.
