Fulfilled Long ago, one night the Magi (It was near the midnight hour) put aside his books of wisdom to ascend the lofty towfer of his Persian palace home and his purpose was to worship God who rules from Heaven’s throne. There was a mysterious calmness on that night so long ago, God had whispered, there was silence in the sleeping town below and the Magi prayed and wondered what it was that stirred him so. As he worshiped, gazing heaven ward, face upturned to Syrian sky, there appeared a star so brilliant glowing, gleaming with its radiance ( flaming, flashing in the night. Nev er was there light so wondrous, so spectacular a sight. From the tower he then descended, searched his books to see if he could find of the star the meaning and he fcund this prophecy. “Out of Judea shall a star come and a scepter shall arise from out Is rael, reigning, lighting, ruling earth and paradise. He shall rule and have dominion over earth and sea and skies.” Was He comin? The Messiah of whom all the East had heard? Lost in revert meditation, spoke the Magi not a word. He would search, but would he find him ? Was he near or was He far? Came awhisper, “Thou shalt find him, only follow thou the star.” So, upon his patient camel jour neyed he through swaying reeds, over plains or hills or valleys, anywhere the star should lead and he thought not for a moment of his hunger or his needs. Came he to the Holy City, Old Jerusaleum so fair, and outside the gateway found he other Magi, watching there. Saw and greeted they each other, quneched their thirst at Jacob’s well. Followed they the star together, as ^jW AVCAsJt^ of Aocnnom/vf AA Ol wdUL Aftodked ipowJbvif^ L°f- OmoMill GROCERIES »♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦ WE’RE SAYING ♦ Merry | Christmas | With Our New ^ C-A-S-H | P- R-I-C-E-S X Sweetheart THESE PRICES EFFECT- SMOKED HAM FLOUR IVE December 26.
