CHRISTMAS LESSON: THC SA- of the world that have never heard ,
V1OUR'S BIRTH of It?
Sunday, Dec. 19.—Luke 2:3-20,
Golden Text:
Behold I bring you good tidings
of great joy, which shall be to all
people. `(Luke 2:10.)
Was Christ born at Bethlehem'?
To reverent Christians that pounds
like an unnecessary and foolish ques-
tion, yet ibirty years ago It was pop-
e' After describing the sign by which
t the shepherds should know the Sa-
viour -_"the babe wrapped in swad-
dling clothes, lying in a manger "
orally acknowledged to be the most
doubtful passage in the New Testa
merit." Those our verses tell us o.F
the decree from Caesar Augustus
"that all the world should be taxed,"
issued "when Cyrenius was Governor
of Syria," and that this enrelment
for taxation was what brougnt Jos-
eph, the husband of Mary, of whom
Jesus was to he born, "out of the
City of Nazareth, into Judea, unto
the ..City of David, which is called
Bethlehem."
But one of the great archaeolo-
gists and scholars of our generation,
. Sir William M. Ramsay, took up the
challenge of the Critics, and showed
that Luke's statement suceessfully
meets the test of the -moat exacting
hisorical and critical study. Sir Wil-
liam's book, entitled, "Was Christ
Born at Bethlehem; A Study on the
Credibility of St. Luke," is a master-
piece of scholarship and faith. ,
Seven centuries before Christ was
born the Prophet Micah, by super-
natural inspiration wrote: "But thou.
Bethlehem Ephratah, thbugh thou be
little among the thousands of Judah,
yet out of thee shall He come forth
unto me that is to be ruler in Isra-
el; whose goings forth have been
from of old, from everlasting (Micah
5:2).
The night of the nativity • had
come. God chose to announce the
wondrous birth that first Christmas
night to Bethlehem shepherds. David
was a shepherd, and the Son of God
is called, in different .Scripturee, the
Good Shepherd, the Great Shepherd,
the Chief Shepherd. / -
As an angel of the Lord appeared
to the shepherds, "the glory of the
Lord shone round about them." This
may haye been the shekinah glory,
which filled the tabernacle of the
children' of Israel in the wilderness.
(Ex. 40: 84, •35.)
Why were the shephevds "core
afraid" as they saw the angel and
the glory of the Lord? Sinful man is
always afraid the consicons pres-
ence of God—unless, that is, he ha,3
God's own assurance of peace and re-
conciliation. And that was the mes-
sage the/angels brougict to -these
shepherds. Over against the words
"sore afraid" are the words "Fear
not." Over against man's sin. is God's
grace. Man has every reason to fear
it there were no Gospel.
'ular among many critics of the Biel
to answer in the negative. The ties
four verses of the second chapter o
Luke, were, among such critics, "gen
The gift is described by the angel
to the shepherds in thvets ways. I
There was born that day "a Saviour I
which is Christ the Lord.'
A Saviour: That is good news to
sinners, Who cannot save themselves.
Christ means "anointed"; this Sa-
viour is anointed by God for His
saving mission.
And (his Saviour is the Lord Him.
self
the angel is sufielerily joined by a
- vast Heavenly host, praising God in
the Christmas hymn, "Glory to God
in the highest, and on earth peace,
good -will toward men." So angels
can be visible. and audible to men.
Let us remember that the Bible deals
with facts, not fancies.
Then the angels "were gone away
froth them into Heaven!' S9 Heav-
en is not a condition, as some would
, tell us, but a place.
The shepherds now gave a remark-
able exhibition of their own faith.
.A. pastor, preaching on this lesson, ,
has said that a good many Christian
people in the ehepherds' place would
Pave said to each other that night:
"Let us now go even unto Bethle-
hem, and see if this thing is come to
pass, whsch the Lord has made . '
known unto us."
The shepherds said somettime en-
tirely different. Here are their t
words: "Let us now go even unto m
Bethlehem, and eee this thing. whieh a
IS come to pass, which the Lord hath p
made known unto us." 0
They had not yet seen it; they had
no way of knowiagt that it had come tl
to pass except the word from the
Lord. But that is faith: to believe
God's word without any othee evi-
dence. When we say "if" where God
says "is" we are substituting. unbe-
lief for faith. When God say; a
thing is so, it is always safe to say
that we know it is so.
The gOOd 11OWS or Gospel was te
good to keep to themselves, a-nd the
shepherds spread it abroad. /C ev-
ery Christian would be as keen as
those Bethlehem shepherds were, to
tell what he knows about Cznist, it
wiluld not take long to evangelize
the world..
It is popular, to -day, t3 glorify
man. There was none of that on the
first Christmas night. "The shepherds
returned, glorifying and praising
God for all the things that they had
heard and seen." Let us get back
to the simplicity of that day, when
God alone is seen aa worthy of man's
A
glory and praise.
"Good tidings of great joy"—that
is the Gospel. "Which shall be to
all people"—that is the universal
Gospel, Ged's "unspeakable gilt" of
Hie Son is fon the whole world.
What are we, who have received
God's gift, doing to tell those parts
fill the vacancy caused by the resig-
nation of C. A. McDonnell, of Hen-
sall.. The valuators have completed
their worR and their report will be
laid on the table at this meeting for
your consideration." • e
"The Good Roads Commission has
had its second meeting and has care-
fully looked after the work laid out
at the June meeting."
"The House of Refuge Committee
has had the usual number of meet-
ings and the general bushiess co'. that
institution has been attended to in a
very efficient manner, to the advan-
tage of the county."
"The county officials and officers
have all been on the job and con-
ducted the duties of their different
offices and positions in the usual
faithful and efficient manner, and
they have all helped make my duties
easy in every possible way."
The ordinary routine of business
ncident to the first session of the
meeting was then proceeded with.
The clerk read a letter from Geri,
Hubbard, explaining his absence on
mount of the death' of his clerk,
Irs. Walker.
Suggest Budget Plan
The warden in his remarks later
hrew out the suggestion that it
ight be aelvisable for the county to
dopt the plan of other counties 14
repaving the budget for the roads'
xpenditure for next year.
The following correspondence was
len read by the clerk, and Was re-

CHANGING TITLES OF BRI-
TAIN'S KINGS
The permutations of the royal tit-
le in Great Britain have been an in-
dex of the history of Englan 1 111113
of the changing character of that
political entity known as the British
Empire. The recent aetion of the
Imperial Conference was not ,:,xcep-
tional; it was the last of a series of
changes which disclose the relations
of Great Britain to the church, to
the continent of Europe and her col-
onies. The present rather simple
title of the Ring seems a far cry
from the grandiose description in
the Statutes of Mary after ehe was
married to Map of Spain: "Philip '
and Mary by the Grace of God, Ring
and Queen of England, France, Nap-
les, Jerusalem and Ireland, Defend -
Ins of the Faith; Princes of Spain
and Sicily, ' Archdukes of Austria;
Dukes of Milan, Burgundy and Bra -

bent; Counts of Hapsburg:, Mandell,
and Tyrol." -
James I brought with him to the,
throne of England the title of "King
of Scotland." The Bill of Rights,.
the Act of Succession and the Ai t
of Union of Englund and Seetlanit,
resulted in simplification. The title
became, "By the Grace of God, King
(or Queen) of England, Scotland. (or
Great Britain), France and leeknot.
Defender of the Faith, ((tcotera."
George I, however, used his own tit-
les of "Duke of Brunswick and Lath-
enburg, Arch -Treasurer an; Elector
of the Holy Roman Empire.*
George III in 1801, by parliamentary
authorization, dropped all claim to
the throne of France, and abandone4
also the "etcetera," which had heel,
assumed by Elizabeth as substitute.
for the "Supreme Head of the
Church," No further change came
until, 1876, when there was a heated.
controversy in Parliament over the
designation that Victoria should
have.
After 1858 when the governereeet
of India was transferred from tha
company to the crown, it seemed
fitting. to signalize the Amsted retie-
tionship by en addition to the royal.

xious thus to appeal to. imagination

suggestions were made, but the got-
