THOUGHTS ON niKISTMAS
As the Christmas season ap
proaches in this year of grace
1'J17 the holiday time that has
been set apart by all Christendom
in commemoration of the birth
and life and work of the man
Jesus, "the greatest man who
ever trod the earth," the world
may well stand agast at the
spectale the present time presents
Almost 20(10 years have elapsed
since the Christ-child lay in
cradled obscurity in the Bethle
hem manger; since the man
Jesus, promulgated his doctrine
of "Peace on Earth, Good Will
Towards Men." During that
lapse of time the peoples of the
earth have been largely brought
to at least a nominal acceptance
of His teachings. All the great
so called highly civilized
nations have, by word of mouth
and written proclamation, accept
ed Him as their model, adopted
His system of philsophy as their
only guide in life, and have based
their laws thereon and then have
come to strut .in self-conceited
pomp and glory the while they
vaunt their high degree of so
called Christain civilization.
And yet in spite of all this the
world has never before been
brought to such a condition of
misery and anguish, want and
woe, death and destruction as at
the present time. Practically
every Christian nation in the
world is at this moment engaged
in a conflict such as has never
before blackened the
human history. Evil

First National Bank Completed
The new First National Bank
building is completed so far as
(he actual building is concerned
dnd as soon as the furnishings
dnd fixtures arrive ar.d are plac
et! in positon the banking rooms
vvill be ready for occupancy,
i'he new building is a handsome
uiece of architecture and is com
pieiely modern in all its ap
point merits. It is a credit to
ileppner as well as to the bank
ing institution that owns it and
o the men who manage and
di rect the affairs of that ioslit
utiori. It is expected the bank-
ng rooms will be ready for oc
cupancy by the lirst of the new

Wm. Kumuerland, a well
Known fanner of" ttie Ileppner
flat country, was a caller at the
derald office a few days ago
when he indicated his satisfaction
with the Herald by paying an
other year's subsciption. Mr
Kummerland is a pioneer of
Morrow county having been here
about iiii years. He has witness
ed many changes here watching
the country develop from a des
ert, good only for pasturing stock
lo a tine wheat growing section.
Mr. kummerland's crop this
year was very light due to unto
ward weather conditions but he
has a good ucreage ready for next

ers he has plenty of faith in get
ting a good crop when the next
harvast rolls aound.

Is Christianity a failure? Have
the teachings of the nieok and
lowly Jesus, the gentle, loving
Man from Callileo w ho taught a
waiting world the kindly words:
"Whatsoever ye would that
others tlo unto on, tlo ye even so
to them," come to naught? It
cannot be. All the better im
pulses of the human soul crv out
against such thought. Wo know
that Ho spoke truth because wo
know that every statement Ho
made, every principle He enunci
ated wa.i fully and completely
dotnonsratcd during his ministry.
The trouble with the world
is not that the teachings of Christ
have tailed, or can over fail, to
moot it's every need, but rather
