THE CHRISTMAS SPIRIT
Of nil the religious festivals thut or
Christina it the mo-t popular and
widest observed. Through the long
centuries ll ha grown more and more
deep seated In the heart ot the world.
That la because it awakens the strong
rat and moit heartfelt associations.
There la tone of aoletnn ami sacred
feeling that blonds with our eonvivlnl
ty, lifting our apirlta to a atate ot hal
lowed enjoyment.
There la something In the very sea
son that give a charm to tho festivity
of Christmaa. At other times we gain
much from the tvautiva of nature, the
song of the bird, the murmur of the
stream and the bloom of the flowers,
all Ml ua with delight. Hut Christmas
comes when nature la despoiled nf much
of its delight, henre we turn for our
enjoyment to moral sources. Heart
ralleth to heart, and we draw our plea
aures from the wells of loving kindnrs ;
which lie in the deeps of our own tnuls.
The spirit of this festival ha a ten
dency to draw -clover those liar.d of
kindred hearts, which the cares, plea
aurea arid sorrows of the world are con
tinually operating to cast loose: and
once more around the family h arth
breathing the attnosohere of the ten
tier Chriat, we, renew our home tiea.
The spirit of the "Advent" breathes
everywhere and the heart wrought up
on ua by these moral forces turns
everything Into melody and beauty.
At this season the whole wide Christian
world is lifting its aong of praise to
the Savior of the world. The eyes of
the world are on the tradle of liethle
hem. Strange la It not that the tilth
of a child should ao crip the mind and
heart ot humanity. This Is the twen
tieth retituty; and from whst event
are thee twenty centuries counted?
From the birth of Jesus Christ. He
has written his signature on the flying
years. This la marvelous thing. Who
of us on visiting the monger of Beth
lehem, and beholding an infant amid
accomodations provided for animals,
would have thought this? And yet this
lowly birtb was the Dortal to that glor
ious though trief career, which was to
establish an imperishable way over
humanity. Before that infant the
briehext names of history have grown
dim. Oat of the darkness of the past
ahinea the luster of thia birth.
With the birth of "Tne Christmaa
Child" there came a spirit of humanity
utterly anknown In the ancient world.
Man looks upon his fellowman aa he
never looked before. New and sacred
tiea now bind all men together. There
is a spirit of brotherhood that embraces
all mankind. Tbia spirit of brother
hood, friendship, ot humanity at work
throughout Christendom waa eradeled
in the manger at Betbelehem, wrought
In Palestine, and baa descended to us
bringing great joya and gladness.
"for unto ua la born thia day
saviour, which la Chriet the Lord."
And with the host of heaven we say,
"Peace good will toward .men."
"Long years ago o'er Bethlehem's hills
Waa seen wondrous thing:
Aa ahepherds watched their sleeping
flocks
They hea.d the angle aing.
The anthem rolled among the clouds
When earth waa hushed and still:
Its notes proclaimed sweet peace on
earth,
to all mankind good will."
'That aong Is sung by rich and poor,
Where'er the Chriat is known:
'Tis song in words, and aong in deeds.
Which bind all heart in one.
Anglea are atill the cboirstera,
But we the abepberda are,
To bear the message wbich tbey bring,
To those both near and far."
