A pretty home wedding which was an event of interest to many friends of the contracting parties was thut of Miss Gertrude Gillette and Mr. Hurry T. Fallon, which took place Thursday evening. The ceremony >vas performed by Rev. C. B. Wllnter, and the bride was given In marriage by her uncle, Mr. George Black, in whose attractive apartment at the Marlborough, the wedding took place. Mr. Harry D. Baylor, Jr., acted as “It came upon the midnight clear, That glorious song of old, From angels bending near the earth To touch thefr harps of gof<f;. Peace on earth, good will to men, From heaven’s all-gracious King; The world In solemn stillness lay To hear the angels sing.” Once more the Star of Bethlehem sheds Its radiance upon the world! Once more the songs of angels come to listening human ears! The watch ing shepherds upon the green hillsides of Judea seem once more to live ogAln! Along the dim. eastern horizon are outlined the ancient magi, bringing from the far off Orient gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh, to lay be side the humble nAanger, which cra dles the Prince of-Peace. The olive trees of Palestine send out again upon the midnight air a fragrance which has been wafted down the centuries, and all nature vibrates with tho tenderness of the sacred time—for a sweet new Babe will sleep In His manger cradle, uncon scious of the adoration of earth and of sky! Each year brings afresh to the hu man race this beautiful Christmas story which grows the sweeter with each telling! Time but adds to Its glory and makes tenderer the pathos of It all. As long as the years endure tho tongues of men and of angels shall unite In that glorious anthem, “Peace on Earth, Good Will Toward Men." The Child, tho Star and tho Song! Things in heaven and things on earth together pay homage to this blessed Trinity! The Christ child Is the central idea of the universe, and the Inspiration of all creation, which In its omnipotence dwarfs the splondor of earthly poten tates and makes as naught the strug gling* and striving of the sons of men. And thus It shall ever be, until the | world Is filled with the glory, the brightness and the melody of the Christmas Trinity, and \ the Babe of Bethlehem shall come in kingly pow er at the second advent. With the songs of angels there are mingled today many voices that once made happiest cheer around our own firesides. Some of those who heard the Christmas chimes ring out in the years that are gone, standing hand In hand with ' us, and with hearts pulsating with mutual hope and love, now keep the beautiful Christmas beyond the stars! From the heights, perchance, they send down to our yearning hearts messages of * love upon the wings of the night wind, and who knows but that they come close to us at such a season and bring to our souls a sweet and holy comfort?- Above the chant of choirs, above the peal of bells, will come at such a season the echo of voices which can never die. From every sign of Joy will spring memories of the loved and lost. But with these memories will come the ex pectation j)f another time, when the Babe of Bethlehem shall wipe away ull earthly tears. The Child, the Star and the Song, In triune beauty, tell anew at each recur ring Christmas tide the matchless story of a world redeemed. Across the cen turies comes today the prophetic smile of the Christ child, the radiant glory of the Star In the East,, and the melo dy of that Song, the expectant shep herds heard on the verdant hillsides of far-away Palestine. “For lo, the dAys are hastening on By prophets seen of old. When with the ever-circling years Shall come the time foretold. When the new heaven and earth shall own The Prince of Peace their King, And the wholo world send back the song Which now the angels sing."
