CHKiSTMAS 1914.
Nigh uino 10 iIuhi.s.iikI year
Ikivc pt-'J miicc, after night lud
settled down on the lulls of JuJcj,
w here near llie liule town ot Beth
lehein a small number of shep
herds watched their (lucks till the
morning hours, suddenly a great
light shone about them and out ut
the silence came the voice of an
angelic messenger, saying, "Be
hold I bring you glad tidings nl
great joy, which shall be to all
people;" and then arose the glad
refrain, "Glory to God in the high
est, Peace on earth, good will to
ward men."
This proclaimed the first Christ
mas morning and gave the key
note of God's purpose in sending
His Son to the earth for man's re
demption, and to bring peace and
good will. And now alter centu
ries have passed it seems that the
work of all these years has been
for naught. For, argue as we will,
explain as w e may, one ugly fact
is present, six great nations of the
Christian w orld are at war and the
clearest minds have stood befogged
and bewildered at the sudden
transformation of a Christian w orld
into a state of barbarity unknown
even in the darkest ages.
It is not strange that we ques
tion. It is all a vast riddle and the
mind reels in contemplation of it.
But then while we cmnot grasp
its meaning we remember that
"God moves in a mys'erious way
His wonders to perform."
The tools that He uses for tin
accomplishment of His purpose
are often strange and hard to un
derstand. Nevertheless one fact
remains;
"God's in His heaven"
All's right with the world."
It may tax one's faith to be
lieve it. That is human. Bui the
fact remains a fact. To the tia
tions at war this w ill be a dark
Christmas; no doubt of that. Bui
one has said that centuries ago
there was also a dark moment on
Calvary and as out of that moment
came the Divine Light o out of
this dark moment will also come
the Divine light, and Christinas
this year should spell for us a quiet
patience and a strong hold on thai
faith that is true and unfailing and
invariably leads to that light.
To us, who are removed from
the clash of arms and all the suf
fering that war begets, should
come the desire to help in every
way possible and to give of our
means to alleviate the sufferings
that war has brought.
Dr. Van Dyke reminds us in his
little book on Christmas that there
is a difference between observing
Christmas and keeping it, and that
to keep it one must have the spirit
of Christ and an unselfish interest
in the happiness of others. This
w ill bring a deeper and fuller un
derstanding of w hat it means to
show love tor others for Jesus'
sake.
Let us all remember that what
the world most needs is sympathy
and love. That thousands are
looking in vain tor a cheering
word, a helping hand, let us no'
withhold w hat means so much to
others but costs us little except the
one idea of putting ourselves into
every act. j
While the depression in business
is keenly fell, the l.ik of a ru.ly
market to: mil ptoduce has V.(.,..J
a halt in extravagant desires j-j
expenditures, still hive inuJi
to make us happy and gl.id. Wc
have our homes and little ones and
us this is truly a children's fesm ,i
they should have "the right r-.fi
way" for at no other time in the '
year do they occupy mi prominent i
a place in the iuiM.iiio u iiuu,diid 1
no lime brings such joy as the
Christmas season. Indeed, the
whole of Christmas centers around
the love of a mother lor her babe,
centuries have roll d by; dyn isties
have risen and fallen; conquerors
have waxed and waned but none
of these have stilled that cradle
song in the quiet of me Judean
starlight, and there is a chord of
sympathy connecting that nioiher
at Bethlehem with ine heart of
every muiher of today, and we re
member the promise that "a little
child shall lead them" so.while we
deplore the distress and sorrow
brought on by the war now being
waged, let us hope that tne ange s
song will reach even the hardest
heart and that peace and good
will may soon reign in every quar
ter of the earth.

l)r Harrison, County Superin
tendent, Says There Should Be
Co-Operation.
In answer to the recent request
to the County Superintendents to
send in, for the Lniversity News
Letter, an account ot work, Dr. A
S. Harrison, of Lnlieid, sends the
following interesting communica
tion. The greatest obstacle to progress
in the schools of Halifax county
is lack of contact and co-operation
between teacher and patrons As
an example, in one ot our one
teacher schools, the teacher is w ell
trained, has h id sever.il years ex
, penence. and is n..w leaching for
j t:ie second nine n the s.nne com
I iiiain; svc-llcJ to be w ill satisfied
On a tt to tins sshool, 1 louud
the enrollment so poor that 1 began
to make inquiry and incidentally
learned from the teacher that she
knew very tew of the parents, had
never visited any of their homes
and had never held meetings ot
her patrons.
Soon afterward, I sent the As
sistant Superintendent into tins
community. She visited practical
'y all of the homes and planned
for a patrons' meeting. The teach
er stated most positively that the
patrons w ould not come out; but
to her surprise, every home was
represented at the meeting. All
had a good social time and discuss
ed school problems freely. When
the meeting adjourned the teacher
and the pitrons felt that they really
knew e.ich uther for tlietirst time.
As .1 result of tins meeting a
1 patrons' club was organized and
I since held meetings monthly. Funds
j were suNcnbid tor a school sup
1 per which was g'ven for the bene
, fit of the Sshool.
j As 1 direct result of this meeting
j the enrollment in this school has
j greatly increased and the average
j daily attendance is much better,
j Aiiogeiher there is a finer spirit in
, :ie sonmiuuiiy. Instead ot pas
sive y accepting the school as
so'iu-hiiig given by the State and
c hi.iiv, me tv.iple are now active

GREAT WHEAT AREA PREDICTED.
World's Acreage of Sowings lor
1015 Largest Ever Know n, Says
l:xpert.
The greatest wheat area 111 the
world's history will be planted for
the 1915 harvest as a result of
the Luropean war, in the opinion
of Charles M. D.iugherty.staiistical
expert of the Department ot Agri
culture at Washington. In a repot'
made public Mr. Daugherty says:
"As a result of the war in Lu
I'npe, a world-w ide tendency exists
lo increase the acreage in wheat.
Doubtless the most extensive area
in the history of the world will be
seeded during the present autumn
and coining spring A prospective
heavy demand for this important
food grain by the importing coun
tries ol Western Lurope is likely,
if seeding conditions favor, to give
extraordinary stimulus io sow ings
ol bi til winter ,uid spring varieties
in the two great exporting coun
tries of North America and to those
sowings now being finished under
auspicious circumstances in British
India
"In the Southern hemisphere
seeding was completed belore t he
war began, and the cited of pres
ent economic conditions upon ex
tension ot areas there ill be m.ri
tfest oniy in the spring and sum

"In Lurope, wnere ordinarily
oer halt ot the world's wheal is
produced, the indications are that
all .n.iilable labor resources in both
neutral and ointendn'g nations,
w ill be uiihed to the utmost lor

In Italy, whose wheat acreage is
ordn inly second m extent to that
o! no stale in Fun
excepting
K'ussi.i, I .tHhUHIO acres, it is said
will be added to the crop
"In the contending countries ex
traordinary efforts are being ex
erted in autumn seeding The
services ot w omen and children,
men exempt from military service,
refugees, prisoners ot war and sol
diers temporarily relieved from
the ranks are being utilized in the
fields as occasion permits and re
quires." A Test for Liver Complaint

Leading Hiiptist Liiymnn and

Hie Baptists of the State and

Noah Biggs, ol Scotland Neck
An excellent business man, he ac
kiiniiilned a substantial tm tune
and he used Ins money 111 doing
good.
All bciK Viileiil obiccts appealec
to Mr. Biggs, but the cause ol the
orphan lay neatest to Ins heart. At
the Thum.is liie Baptist Orphan
age tlie name ot No.ih Lliggs is
name enshrined in hundreds of tin
hearts of the children to whose
happine-s he has ministered and
i whose chance in lite he has helped
S to impro e.
I Mr. Biggs was the lirst man in
the State to contribute the iiiona

C"inpktcd a si inKir huiivlmg at the

expecteJ. he left to the institution
a I. r;e part ol Ins estate. He haw
also served on the Wake Lorest

there was no work of Christian
activity that did not enlist his sym
pathy. It is men like Noah Biggs that
