Once more the joyous Christ- mas-tide has come and tomorrow the civilized world will celebrate the nativity of Him at whose first coming the angelic host pro- j claimed the "good tidings ofj o-rnjir Irtv which shall be to all t. 1 " J ' f Tf ic immarial whp.t.h- ! i l - oru t nniomW ia tfip ei me jlm correct anniversary of the birth of Jesus Christ, for it is the day i ii i ,j tnat nas Deengenerauy uuscivcu for centuries past and will con tinue to be observed throughout all future generations notwith standing the doubts and objec-l tions of a pitiful minority. What would the world be with out any Christmas? Had you ever thought of such a calamity? This is the one season of the year to which not only the chil dren but grown folks look with joyful anticipations, and when man's more noble and generous qualities shine forth. Hard in deed must be that heartthat is not softened and warm with the genial glow that Christmas al ways brings. The most miser able misanthrope must feel a glow of the wamth of human love and kindness that pervades the very atmosphere at Christ mas. And dear old Santa Claus! What would Christmas be with out that jolly friend and bene factor of all good children? Who would try to shake the belief of the children in that mythical personage and his prancing rein deers? Who is too old or selfish not to envy the supreme happi ness of the children as they open their well-filled stockings early on Christmas morn? What can give more pleasure than to see the children wild with delight when opening their Christmas stockings? And who then does not wish to be a child again ' A this season of universal re joicing let those who are more fortunate than their fellows try to make them happy and there by increase their own happiness. This is a season when the human race feels more kindly to each other, and when the heart strings ana purse-strings are loosened. , As has been well said by another, "At Christmas-tide the open hand Scatters its bounty o'er sea and land. And none are left to grieve ulone. For love is heaven and clai ins it.s own. To each and all its readers The Record extends the greet ings of this joyous season and wishes for them a very MERRY CHRISTMAS. I he memoers of the present Congress deserve to enjoy their Christmas holidays, not only be cause of their good work in pass ing the tariff and currency bills but also because they have been in continuous session since last April. They were then called in extra session and that session continued without any recess un til the very hour when the regu lar session began on the first day of this month. No other Congress in the history of this republic had ever done such thing. It will be remembered that Congressmen receive a stated salary, $7,500 a year, whether they are in session one month or all the twelve months of the year. They are not paid a per diem, so much a day, and therefore there is no pecuniary inducement for them to remain in session longer than necessary. The currency bill is one of the most acceptable Christmas gifts that Congress could have pre sented to the people of the Uni ted States. Its passage by that body and its signature by Presi dent Wilson come as a Christmas gift that should be highly appre ciated. The 'final enactment of this law and the new tariff law has fully redeemed the promises and pledges of the Democratic party on those two most important questions of public policy. Al though much time was consumed in the consideration of those two measures, yet the final result is "most gratifying and should en title the Democratic party to the nnntimiAfl snnnort of f ho rannU - . . hVUt"c 01 tniS country. The majority by which the currency bill was passed in the Senate was much larger than had been expected, the vote being 54 to 34. All the Democrats voted for it and six Republicans and one Progressive. This vote would indicate that it is so proper a bill that even Republicans had to vote for it. I oi'tt. nf n,,- .;t,'Qa will hnvP tn-! ;nignca community vjiisuiias i tree for the benefit of those who 'cannot afford to have their indi- vidual trees. To this community everybody will be invited tree d present be given to ever u:iJ rrU- ,0 most in attendance, mis is a commendable and appro priate way of celebrating Christ mas, and it should be more gen erally observed next year.
