on which all tho pooplo, starting
from a common point, and reasoning
from that point, reach tho samo com
mon ground at last. Whllo tho spir
it of Christmas has not changed, all
olso has. Now York city nt that tlmo
was by comparison a llttlo city,
whllo Chicago. San Prnnclsco nnd
Minneapolis woro but big villages;
Donver was hardly a hamlet and a
thousand places that aro now con
spicuous, had at that tlmo no placo
