THE TIMES wishes nil Its rondors, patrons, friend1) and oven Its onomlcs, "A Morry Christina" on this Joyous Christmas day. This Is a Benson of "pence on earth and good will to men" thoroforo on thU day should hate ho forgotten and happiness enthroned In the hearts nnd minds of mon. This would In deed ho a sorry and sordid old wor'd If It woro not for the Christmas spir it that once n year brings tho bles sings of unselfish and generous giv ing. Tho principle of the brotlmr hood of man was tho moral forro that 'Greok and Roman democracy lacked and for Inch of which they failed. This principle enmo Into play when Chrlstlnulty entered on Its historic careor. Whllo there has been some efforts by frenk historians to connect Christmas with barbarian feast days earllor than tho Christian era thoso efforts hnvo boon futile for the Chrlstmus of Christians Is not moroly a feast day but a day of good will and good wishes. It Is a day of rejoicing of family reunions nnd of gift giving. Evon conunerco catches the spirit of Chrls:- mns at this season, nnd this beautiful thought was given expression In ouo of tho huHlncss announcements dur ing tho recent Ecnson. "The story of Chrlstmns Is tho story of human sacrifice. Tho churm of Christmas Is tho charm of gone roslty. Saclflce unit generosity go hand In hand In the world-wide will ingness to give nt Chrlstmns tlnio." May all tho honcflcont blessings of this hnppy and holy season bo en Joyed by everyono this glorious ClirlBtmas day.
