BETHLEHEM
This year Christmas fell on Sunday,
and it aa eelebrated throughout tbe
world by all brancbea of the blatorio
Catbolis eborcb. Christiana ol all
names will la mind and heart go ereo
onto Bethlehem and there worship the
oew born Klog. About 1934 years ago
waa born there a man Jeeas Christ ot
the Virgin Mary, in accord a noe with
prophecy. TradiUon taya that ha was
bora la a manger - oare because there
was no room for film and his mother
in the Inn. In the torn to century,
mora than 1500 years' ago, the am press
Helena, the mother of Constanline the
great, billt over the cava in -whioh
our Saviour waa born a magnificent
Church, which inoludca three contents
and three chapels, and it waa dedicat
ed to Bt. Mary, and ia usually called
the Church ot the Nativity, Palestine
haa bean daaolated by war many
times during the laat fifteen centuries,
bnt this Church has been spared and
iaoneoLthe oldtet Charcnea in the
world. Like the Church of tbe Holy
Sepulcher at Jerusalem, this Church
ia used in common by tbe Greek, La
tin, and -Armenian Churchea, each
baring a chapel therein. It is said
that all the inhabitants of Hetbelem
are Christians. Every morning before
daylight tbe faithful o to this church
and there worship the God-Man who
was born, there- They are not liae
many American Christiana, too sleepy
or "tired" to go to. -the sanotaary to
worship God. Bethlehem is about five
miles south of Jerusalem to Judea and
its modern name ia Heth-Labam. King
i Daid . waa born there , and Ruth
I gleaned la the fields nearby 'ine
grave 01 K&onaal is near loere. cu
Jerome, the great scholar ot the West
ern church lived in a cave near the
Church ol Nativity nearly thirty years
and there studied and translated into
Latin from the Greek and Hebrew
tongues the Old and New Test amenta
and wrote other books in the 4th and
5tb centuries and he and other saints
were purled In the. Church of Bt.
Mary. To every loyal Christian Beth-
ehem ia tbe birth place of the Sav
iour and a a acred place ot the firBt
rank. Pilgrimages bave ben made to
this little city of David by the faith
ful tor nearly two thousand years
Who would not have liked to have
spent Christmas morning there and
beard in faith tha song of the angels as
the shepherds it on tbe morning of the
first nativity and worship the Christ,
as the Wise Men did with gifts oi gold,
frankincense and myrrh nearly, two
thousand years ago. . Though small in
population no other city surpasses
uethlehem in interest to the faithful
Christian. On Christmas day all the
faithful eo in spirit "even unto Beth.
lehem." . i .:
O little town of Bethlehem,
How still we see thee lie;
Above the deep end dreamless sleep
The silent stars go by;
Tet in thy dark streets shlteth
The everlasting light;
The bopea and fears rf all the years
; .Are met in tbea tonight."
