Wo need not rack our brains with
tho chronological basis of this day.
Nor is thero need of ondonvorlng to
trace tho first signs of tho colobrn
tlon of Christmas. It mnttors vory
llttlo to us whotlior tho calculations
of Hlppolytus had any thing to do
with tho fixing of tho festival on De
cember 2&th. Or how much tho pa
gan Brumnlln, following tho Satur
nalia, colobratlng tho shortest dny In
tho yonr and tho "now buii", or tho
boglnning of tho longhtcnlng of days,
had to do with tho llxlng of tho dny
for celebration. What wo noed to
know Is primarily tho roason for tho
rolobratlon of tho day ,and, furthor
moro, how wo may obsorvo tho day
so as to enjoy its great blessings. ,
Christmns Is tho ono dny on which
tho nntlvlty of tho Savior is observed.
This is, or ought to be, woll known
by ovorybody who enjoys tho distinct
ndvontnges of living In a clvillzod
and chrlstlnn country. And (by tho
way) lot no ono In our onllghtonod
tlmo, for a moment, bo led to bollovo
thnt Christmas Is obsorvod hi mem
ory of Santa Claus' coming to fill
our stockings nnd othor recoptacles
for Christmas gifts. Tho Improjslon,
so ofon clven children, thnt Santa Is
tho King of tho festival, robs it
of its sanctity nnd deprives tho tots
of tho true Joy It purposos primarily
to bring unto thorn. Why not toll
tho children that Tom, Dick or Harry
glvos thorn presonts, instend of Santa
Claus? Hut bettor still would be to
lot ovory gift Bymbollzo heaven's
groat gift unto tho world. Thon ov
ory gift, and exchange of gifts, would
strikingly romind tho giver and ro
dplont allko, of tho true naturo of
tho day, and a brenth of hoavonly
spirit thus bo Infused Into tho ontlro
program of the observance.
It is not necessary to enter into
