Those who do not lose sight of the

interested to have the fact recalled
that ter+ 25th of December has not
always been the day fixed .a that
upon which Christ was born. Before
the Fourth Century many people be -
tiered that April 20th was the wrest -

tom. In a Christmas sermon, preached

day had not been clearly known to
his hearers longer than ten years.
"but 1t had been familiar from the
begianing to those who dwelt In the
West." From the' It appears evident
that December 25th was in the
