Mr. and Mrs. Bill McPhaul Lewis St. ONE "ORDINARY MAN" CHANGED HISTORY Here is a man who was horn in an obscure village, the child of a peasant wo man. lie grew up in an other obscure village. He worked in a carpenter shop until He was 30, and then for three years He was an itinerant preacher. He never wrote a book. He never held an office. He never owned a home. He never set foot inside a big city. He never trav elled 200 miles from the place where He was born. He had no credentials but I limself. He had nothing to do with this world except the naked power of His divine manhood. While still a young man, the tide of pop ular opinion turned against Him. His friends ran away. One of tl rem denied H im. He was turned over to His enemies. He went through the mockery of a trial. He was nailed upon a cross between two thieves. His executioners gam bled for the only piece of property He had on earth while He wnv flvincr ? and that was His coat. When He was dead He was taken down and laid in a borrowed grave through the pity of a friend. Nineteen wide centuries have come and gone and today He is the centerpiece of the human race and the leader of progress. I am far within the mark when I say that all the armies that ever inarched, and all the navies that ever were built, and all the parlia ments that ever sat, and all the kings that ever reigned, put together have not affected the life of man. a joyous Noel to all our good ;*v , friends... ma y the blessings of Christmas abide with you and yours all through the season and in the year to come.
