THE happy Christmas time, with all its bright memories, its earnest hopes and its profoundest of all
consolations, is once more upon us. To-morrow we will joyfully celebrate the return of the anni-versary
of that glorious day whose first dawning was beheld by the wondering shepherds as they
watched their flocks on the Judean hills; that day whose advent was signaled by the shining of a new star
m the heavens, and was heralcled by that wonderful chorus of the angelic host. Nineteen hundred and
nine years ago, in a stable in the village of Bethlehem, was born a child, who was none else than the
world's Redeemer.
lhe coming ol thg oavior into the world was an event that surpassed all previous ones. Une or the
great lessons that Christmas teaches is the beauty, the glory and good of unselfishness, and of self-sacrifice.
This was the lesson taught from the manger in Bethlehem to the cross on Calvary. How much better that
teaching has made the world, and how much better yet it would be to-day if that teaching were honestly
and consistently observed.^
Christmas means love. It is the season of good-will—everybody feels-kindly toward his neighbors.
We should always strive to make hearts glad and happy that have but few joys.. The wise men came
from the East and brought the richest gifts, laying them at the feet of the infant Christ. So let us lay our-selves
at His feet and worship Him.
In celebrating Christmas we should not forget to observe it in harmony with the event. The whole
homage of the heart should go. out to the Christ who was born on that day.
