piled; "The divine spirit shall come
upon Thee"
This is the meaning of Christ
mas. The Incarnationi The Word
made fleshl God, the eternal Faith
er in Heaven, the Creator of all
things, assuming the nature of
man, becoming flesh and blood, a
reality, tangible and visible.
This is the meaning of Christ
mas that in the darkness of this
world the divine light is made
manifest, If only we follow the
heavenly Star of Bethlehem +.
Not any of the man-made stars
which spread a superficial and
artificial light, but the star of
eternal life. OF this life the Book
of Wisdom says: When all things
are in quiet silence and the night
is in the midst of her course, Gods
almighty word leaps down from
heaven into the midst of the
ldnu OF deStrucLlOn.
Always this world, all human
life, truly is a "land of destruc-
tion." Always there is chaos when
man is not related to the eternal
orders of God. Our present day is
indeed a vivid illustration of this
truth, but all history of mankind
reflects it. Unless the light of heav-
en- pierces our darkness, we cannot
overcome it.
The inspiring liturgy we eels-
brats in the Midnight Mass Is TO
make Us understand that this light
must be born In our souls s. that
spiritually Christ Is TO be born in
US, as He was born in fhe flesh
some swo thousand years ago. Man
would be helpless in this world,
were he to face by himself the pow
srs OF darkness. the evil forces
causing hate and strife, war and
revolution. Peace -- fhe true peace
which the world cannot give - he
can find only II he turns to Christ,
if he kne els hunnhIy al the manser
of Bethlehem TO perceive the light
which is not of fhis world, to share
ths divine light. revealins itself
time and again In our hearts If we
are prepared TO receive II.
"On this day the great Light
came down upon the EARTH" says a
prayer of the third Christmas Mass.
Christ was born into this world, TO
make evident this light, to reveal
the supreme mystery of the Incar-
nation. The Word OF God was made
flesh. The light of God became a
reality for us to grasp.
1.-THE darkness understood 1t
not" says st. John. Men who de.
pend on their own, ephermar light
understand it not. But those who
throw their anchors into eternity,
who do not turn away from the
true light, they understand it and
become children of God" as
other chrisfs, reborn to a new
life in the spirit, a life in which
the Prince of Peace will reign for
ever and ever.

The custom Of three Masses Of
fered on Christmas Day dates from
the fifth century. Formerly in
Rome there had been one Mass for
the Vigil, which ended about mid
night, then the Mass Of the Day
at dawn in the Vatican Basilica. A
third Mass was in honor of st. An
astasia, patroness of Eastern Cath
olics residing in Rome. After the
break between Rome and Con-
stantinople, the Mass of st. Anas-
tasia was kept in the Christmas
liturgy and given second place, of.
fered at dawn instead Of the Mass
Of the Day.

All the Madonnas have not been
painted. Young artists like Edouard
Capra are proof that Mary still in
spires the talented. Many scenes
from the life of Our Lady are not
found among the masterpieces in
galleries.
'1 wish that some artist would
paint the three scenes in which
Mary's preparation for the role
Of the Universal Mother is unfold
ed" Monsignor Fulton J. Sheen
once stated in one Of his lectures.
The first would be a picture of
the finding in the Temple. After a
three-day search, Mary found Jesus
among the sages in the temple.
He said to her, "Did you not know
that must be about MY Fathers
business?" He might well have
said, Mother, don't you know that
l cannot spend all of my time with
Joseph in the Carpenters Shop?
My Father has sent me into this
world on the supreme business of
Redemption, to make all men
adopted sons Of the Father"
If Mary caught the full mean
! ing of those words, she must have
realized that the Fatherhood of
God meant that she was to be the
mother of men. A number of art
lists have graphically portrayed the
finding" but there is still place
for a truly great masterpiece.
Less frequently seen is the por-
trayal Of the wedding feast al
Cana. How much Our Lord honor
ed all womanhood by making his
first adult public appearance at
weddingl Mary, the ever watch.
full mother, noticed that the wine
jugs were empty, and said to
Him, "T4ey have no wine" In proof
that her intercession is powerful in
her role as the Universal Mother,
Jesus ordered the pots filled with
water and turned the liquid into
wine.
Two years later, the third scene
almost never painted-was un-
folded. One day as Jesus was
preaching, someone told Him that
Mary was outside and wanted to
see Him. Christ said, "Who is my
mother?" He than answered His
own question: Whoever does the
will of my Father in heaven, he is
my mother" Thus Our Lord
pointed out that there is such {
thing as spiritual maternity
that spiritual ties can bind us tc
the Universal Mother, just as ply
sical ties bind US to our human
mothers.
The stirring climax to these
three scenes, the Crucifixion, hal
been often recorded on canvas. An
tonic Da Viterbo, Antoniazzo Ro
mano, Barnaba Da Modena, Clan
nicola Di Paolo, Lorenzetti, Lue;
: Di Tonne and others have por
trayed the unutterable agony o.
that last hour. During that time
Jesus called His mother woman,
and in that one word her mother
hood was expanded; she became
the mother of every human OF
earth.
! Not only did she have a Chile
according to the Will of the Mos
High but, according to that same
Will, she had a world-full of chill
dren. Through the words that fol
lowed, Son, behold thy mother,
we obtained the most loving moth
er in the world - the Mother oi
Jesus.
If there were nothing real anC
positive about the glory of moth
erhood, would Our Lord have usec
His last ounces of energy to give
her to us as a Universal Mother
Would artists for five centuries
have painted great masterpieces
in her honor?

OBSERVE BROTHERHOOD
WEEk'FEBRUARY 7T09

The rattle for the deep-freeze
sponsored by Robbins Health
department was held at Lincoln
Memorial School Sunday even
ing at 7::30 pm. A large
crowd attended to witness the
the acceptance of the grand
prize by the winner, Mrs. Leslie
Stevens of 1904 w. 135th street.
1t was noteworthy occasion
and the prize a worthy one.
As you probably know, the
Robbins Health department has
done a great work here III the
village. It is a sad thing to say,
however, that lot of their
activities have passed unnoticed
and unappreciated by the eiti
zens who on the whole are the
benehciaries of their efforts. But
such is life.
1t cannot be said that the
public was not informed of this
event for the tickets have been
on sale for months and sold all
over the village by these tireless
and conscientious women.
In connection with some of
the future plans of this organi-
cation, it should be the duty of
every citizen of this village to
acquaint himself or herself with
its activities and rally behind
every program it presents to
the public.
Plans for IL or Ia room
hospital are being made and
$4,000 have already been ear
marked for this project. Cardi-
nal Stritch of the Chicago Do
cese and DIR. M. Winston are
instrumental in laying the
ground work for this great step
forward.
The officers and members Of
Robbins Health department are
as follows:
Mrs. Ella Craig, President
Mrs. Mae Walker, Treasurer
Mrs. Nell Boyd, Secretary
Mrs. E. Hudson, Ways &
Means

Another project which the
Health department is trying to
inaugurate is garbage disposal
service. A plan is being worked
out to dispose of all garbage
for a nominal fee, not to exceed
one dollar cost per month to
each home served. All of these
plans are definite steps toward
progress and they should be
supported by every citizen of
Robbins.

Increasing Support
For More Effective
Report Card Cited

Another report Of favorable
reaction to a more effective re-
port card system in the Districts
elementary schools was presented
to the school committee studying
the subject yesterday.
Miss Edith A. Lyons. associate
superintendent of schools, told
the meeting in the Raymond
School that. of 451 communica-
tons received in her Office, only
II called for retention of the
present system.
Associate Supt. Carl F. Han
sen has suggested a return to the
old A, B, c. D and F markings.
Yesterdays meeting indicated
that the committee members,
while disposed to make some
changes in the present system,
are not all in favor of returning
to the A, B, c system.
Stanley Jackson of the Bell
School. outlining pros and cons
which have been raised, said one
criticism of the graded system is
that I'VE are stressing uniform
ity, rather than uniqueness.
1t was suggested at the meet
ing that it might be helpful to
check back to the time when the
present system was adopted to
find out what the reaction was.
Another proposal was that some
one might develop a case for the
present report card over a forth
coming television program. The
change was suggested on the
Faculty Meeting of the Air Jan
uary 90.
In her analysis of responses
received by her Office. Miss
Lyons reported that teachers.

system of rating ademic

Hungerford Solves Mystery
Of Neglected Schubert Music

last night he was Schubert. In
his hands the A major sonata
was the very epitome of Schu-
bert, glowing with the eloquence
of genius and the poignancy of
loneliness.
The near-miracle of the Schu-
bert performance stood out in
even holder relief against the
background of the rather unsat-
isfying Bach which preceded it
and the anticlimatic Beethoven,
which followed it.
From this concert, it is easy
to understand why Mr.. Hunger
ford's playing deeply impressed
Dame Myra Hess. He demon
strated that heart and brain
alone are sufficient to project
music with utter poetry, if it is
deeply felt. Were his technique
the equivalent of his musician
ship, were his affinity for the
music of Schubert evident over
a wider spectrum, he would be
a great artist,

1t is a pleasure to report that
Leonard Hungerford, the gifted
Australian pianist presented in
recital last night at the Phillips
Gallery, is not attempting to
compete with Horowitz. After
the parade of brilliant young
technicianS heard recently in
Washington, it is a relief to find
a performer at the keyboard who
relies more on musical inteli-
gence than agile fingers.
The cornerstone of Mr.. Hun
gerford'S program was postum
mously published piano sonata
completed by Franz Schubert
some six weeks before his death.
This is generally considered a
somewhat f1awed masterpiece,
and even the greatest pianists
more often than not fail to
bring it to life. Mr.. Hungerford
last night revealed It's simple
secret-Schubert asks not a pi-
anist with IA fingers in a hurry
to catch a train, but rather 10
ordinary fingers and a super
normal musical SenSitivity.
Mr.. Hungerford, a round little
man with a shyly attractive plat
form manner, bears a vague
physical resemblance to the great
VienneSe composer. Through
some unbelievable necromancy,
