It wan born like this: One bitter cold night XI yearn ago, Ditnny Hul llvan, a. young nurveyor who waN of the cigar ntorc gang, met up with a homeless outcast along a trolley line he was surveying. The boy was a pitiful sight, wllh thin, torn clothes, no overcoat or gloves, and shoca worn through to sloeklngless feet. He was penniless, hungry, cold and sick. Danny didn't Just spare him a dime; he took him to the little cigar store, where warmth for body and for soul still to this day abound. 'I lie sitters there were lean of purse but they had hearts of gold. I've seen them grow to men und carry on, many to their grave, the work they started that cold night. Koine gained wealth, many success; all were blest. They dubbed the outcast "Fri day." for It wun that day that he arrived. They clothed and fed htm; gave him a home, a doctor's mid dentist's care and when he was about, they found him a Job. Fri day grew up In our midst and be came li useful citizen, Friday come Into the lives of his saviours near Christmas time. He did more for them than they did for him. The next Christmas the cigar store lads went out to look for a few youngsters who might be for gotrn: bought them candy, toys and clothes. Next year' they took on more and then each year some more. The town caught on to what the boys of little means were doing and folks begun to chip In. Pretty soon the Arctic league children's fund was up in the hundreds of dollars finally up In the many thousands. It became a privilege to con tribute lo their work, because it was unlriue. They souev the children of neglectful parents, drunkards, wasters; the waifs who peer In Christmas windows at dolls and toys that are not for them. The little cold hands that some day would pick n pocket. The little wet feet thnt some day would flee from the society they could com- lo hate. To these they gave n Christmas. Then they looked hard, and found plenty of proud and worthy fathers who hid their want from the cold and exacting processes of organized charity. Would starve and even deprive their children rather than ask aid. - Oh. there arc lots of them. Always everything the Arctic league has done has been Just for children. The Job grciv and grew, finally so big It had to be Incorpor ated. One of the city's biggest men. one of its wealthiest, became the corporation's fir: ' president. Others as prominent and bli have since alternated In the coveted post with humble, loyal leaguers from the ranks. The Arctic league belongs to everybod- In Klmlra now and everybody loves It.

They axe called wise men but their neighbors must have thought them rather foolish to set out on so strange a quest, And even they must have doubted the wisdom of it at timet aa they made the long trek through the burning noon days and cold nights ot the desert. Spiritual quests often seem a waste of time until they find the lost Grail or come, at last, into the presence of the King of kings. Then all the weariness is as nothing and the gifts we bring, though they may have cost us much, are as tinsel com pared to the gifts we receive. Let us go aquesting you and I this Christmastide. Star of my heart, I follow from afar. Sweet Love on high, lead on where shepherds rc, Where Time is not, and only dreamers are. Star from of old, the Magi-Kings are dead And a foolish Saxon seeks the mangcr-bed. O lead me to Jehovah's child Across this dreamland lone and w ild. Then I will speak this prayer unsaid, And kiss this little haloed head "My star and I, we love thee, little child." Except the Christ be born again tonight In dreams of all men, saints and sons of shame, The world will never sec his kingdom bright. Star ot all hearts, lead onward through the night Past deiith-blnrk deserts, doubts without a name. Past hills of pain and mountains of new sin To that far sky where mystic births begin. Where dreaming ears the angel-song shall win. Our Christmas shall be rare at dawning there, And each shall find his brother fair, Like a little child within: All hearts of the earth shall find new birth And wake, no mure to sin. His star still shines for those who look for it within their hearts. Let us follow It anew to his manger throne and ther east ourselves In Joyful abandon at his feet. For Christmas, above all else. Is Christ Christ found, Christ realized, Christ reborn within us. Merry Christmas To You All Howard F. Hutchins, Pastor Ninth and Pine Stt. First Christian Church Kennedy Quits Roseburg Post O. A.
