After ail, it may be protested, Christianity has had nineteen hundred years in which to work,•yet things seem to be going from bad to worse. There are some who say quite candidly that so far. as they can see, in times as.ten-ible as these, Christmas only has a message for those who fiy to it as an escape from reality,. 431 :":0 Fd fly% 414 and u,$ 10y nut 414erer is this to relnellAer, .a tpth#elti iaradtnt ehhlkoshmreewmeardenggFgeodiwnsg• le ti614, In the Scottish, $ebrides. s #tae !tell a story about three Moth:, erloss 'boys who were playing ar•qund a boat tied to a rook in a litti bay, Their play beeomiug dull, .6he eldest boy was fired :by a new" idea. "Let's be pirateal' he cried. The two yaunger boys jump- ed eagerly into the boat and the. Pirate captain loosed the rope from the rock and jumped in after them. The sun wan shining; 'the sea was calm; the little boat danced mer- rily westward on the outgoing tide, and as she went on her way the three boys Bang their wild pirate songs. But the sun went down. The ohadows deepened. Tike dark hills loomed over them like threat- ening giants. The pirate songs ceased. The pirates themselves vanished; and in their places were three small frightened children in a very big and fearsome world. In- stinctively they cried out in their fear, and over thewaves to them came Bride, the foster -mother of the Child Christ. She made a bed for the motherless three in the bot- tom of the boat. Then, while they slept, she guided the little boat back +to the bay from which it set out. That story is a parable of our generation. As the darkness deep- ens about us we know that light is our supreme need. God grant that more and more of us may re- alize that we cannot find our way without Jesus, that if we seek our own and the world's salvation we must walk in his light. Some are realizing that. The newspaper carried a report of a lecture delivered some time ago to Columbia University students by Bertrand Russell. Towards its con- clusion he, a man who has never had a brief orthodoxy, said this: "The root of the matter (if we want a stable world) is a very aim - pie and old-fashioned thing, a thing so simple that I am almost ashatued to mention it, for fear of the deris- ive smiles w-ith which wise cynics will greet my words. The thing I mean is love. Christian love. If you feel this you have a 'motive for enastence, a guide in action, a rea- son for courage, an imperative ne- cessity for intellectual honesty." There is no need to apologize for Christmas, With the coming of Christ there was given to the world the quality land principle of true living. The twenty-fifth of Decem- ber serves as an annual reminder that it is more blessed to give than to receive, that force must ulti- mately bow before gentleness, that love is stronger than hate. The twenty-fifth of December stands for the fact that love is the very groundwork of human relationship and the life -principle of society. Dick Sheppard never took a sounder line than when he urged that man comes to his senses at Christmas. He is mad' when he scorns love and fights for his own selfish interests. He is sinning against the very nature of •things when he hates and quarrels, and will not he at peace with his fel- lows. His real life is, the life he sees and responds to at Christmas- tide when feuds are .forgotten, when grudges are buried, when old enmities are laid away, when the motto of everyone is, "With malice toward: none, with charity for all." I cannot See the Christ Mild For the soldiers marching past. I cannot hear the angels For the bugle's angry 'blast. I cannot -see the 'Ohrist 'Child For the smoke in my eyes. I cannot hear the shepherds For the little children's cries. The contemporary situation pro- vides an abundance of grist for the cynic's mill. The world is in such an appalling state that it seems al- most a mockery. to invite people to sing about peace on earth and good will among men as the sequel to the coming of Jesus. But we should not forget that there is another set of facts to be Reckoned with. Addressing a pub- lic forum some time ago, Kirtley Mather of 'Harvard affirmed his 'faith in the moral order of the uni- verse and in the ultimate triumph of spiritual values. When he had finislhed the first question asked was: "How can you believe in a moral order when Jesus was so pruelly defeated?" Mather paused for a moment and then replied: "In the light of what Jesus did while he was on earth, and what has been done in 'his name 'since, do you really think that he was defeated? I do not." Nor do I. It is disappointing that nineteen hundred years after his advent men should still be living in insecurity and fear. It is no less disappointing that our generation like its predecessors should refuse to make room for Christ and to take him seriously, It is not h'is way of life that has been tried and found wanting; whenever and wherever it has been tried it' has brought light to the world, as he said it would. He has shown us the way, he does not force us into it. He is not the Dictator of the world, re- sorting to compulsion• to extend his empire. He waits patiently until people see the light he has brought. It is not the Prince of Peace who has failed our generation; it is our `generation that • has failed the Prince of Peace. As H. G. Wells said, "To this day his Galilean is too great for 'our small hearts." This is no timeto be apologetic about the Christmas Festival. God be thanked for Bethlehem; In the message it brings lies the one hope of the world. 'It is responsible for the fact that there are millions of menand women who have been so affected by the principles and spir- it of Jesus that, whether they ack- DRESSED or OVEN-READY Ken Beattie R.R. 4 Walton Phone 834 r 6 • 1 `441nrf p µs'very • 'i • • • • • tss•,• • • s• • i• • • • +• • • • • • • • • re .1, • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • ..,• • • . ,• • • • • • • • • 4 • . • • • • e • • . • • • • . • . • • • • • • .• • a . • • • • • • r.. . i • • ► • •. •: • • ••.• . 1•• • •. • • •.• w' f , • • • • • • • • • i • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • ••• • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • •••••••••••4••••••••. •• • • • • • • .• • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • •••e• - • • • • • • • • • •• • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • a'} e t •-: '' 0 • • • - • ••M •rr ,o • • - J, \ a • •'' • • • • • • • • • • • • • •- • • • • • • • • • •, • • • • • •-• • • • • • 'S- - • • • • • • • . • • • • . •••• ••- • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • •• • • • • • • • • • ••• • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • ••• •••• • • a a • • ••• • • Crosse & Blackwell Old English 1 X49 FRUIT CAKE -1 -Ib.
