THE CHRIST CHfLD
Across the snow th« home lights glow
From the myriad hearts alight.
And through the stre<^t with uolselSM
feet
The »Christ-chlid wallts tonight.

At silent gates, outside lie waits.
To find a fitting spot
Be thine tiie shame, if through tby
blaiae
The Christ-child enters not.
Where joyous notes from children’s
tiiroats
The old glad song begin, /
Where love impels and kindness dwells,
Tlio Christ-child enters in.
Where hate has room, pride sits in
gloom.
And wrong involtes unrest.
Though green tiie walls and bright the
halla.
He cannot be a guest.
But wliere the thought tliat angels
brought
To oiirtl'.’s enraptured ears
Good will to men and peace, ap^.iin
The Christ-cluld, listening, hears.
He turns His feet with welcome sweet,
renters, and there abides.
Angola know best how such are blest
Through all the Christmastidcs.
CHRISTMAS FACTS IN BRIEF
Day Celebrated as Christian Festival
for Centuries—Holly Once
a Sacred Plant.
Cliris'tinns day is tho annivorsjiry of
the birlli of Christ, and lias hoi'n ct4e-
brated a.s a Clu’lstian festival for sev
eral cenlurit's. The Cliristuiastide last.s
from the 2r»lli of l>(K‘eiiiher to the Ufli
of January, the twelftli day after
Clirist’s nativity.
Tlie origin of the Cliristnias tree is
obsciUH*; the tliouiijht of (’hrist a.s tliu
Light of the World and tlie Tree of
Life may have }jiven rise to tlie li.^ht-
hejirin;; tree, or the popular <»ld belief
tliat every Christmas eve, trees blos-
some<! and bore fruit, may have been
liie foundation of the custom.
(jlift-giviii.il is, of course, the echo
of the Wise Men's ^ifts; and mince
l>ie. tiu’key and plum puddiiii^s are
modern relics of tlie pa^^an feasts.
Santa Claus, known to every child in
every land in this old world is the per-
soniticati«)ii of the spirit of loving and
giving.
The holly, synonymous of Christ
inas, was a sacred plant, and the mis-
tl*^w« t* ujysterious plant, supposed by
the ancient I)ruids ti> have some mys
tic power of healing and prev«*nting
misfortune. It was never alhnved to
toufli tht‘ ground, hence the modern
superstition that it is unlucky for a
mistletoe bough to fall from its place.
!t was dedi(iite<l to the Goddess t)f
Love, which explains the custom of
kissing under the mistletoe.
