THE MEANING OF CHRISTMAS. Some eight or ten days ago I was either ordered or requested by no loss a personage than our beloved pastor, to tell on tills occasion and to this collection of Christian individuals what 1h the meaning of Christmas. If the statement was nil order, 1 was too layal to disobey It; and If a request. I knew I was too polite to refuse compliance/ therewith. 8u, whether It was an order or u ra iniest,here I am with something haatl’y, prepared and unduly conuldend—wlilc lu altogether unsatisfactory to me, and If It shall be pleasing to anyone of my UeauerB, I shall feel abundantly compensated for nil the time lost and the labor exi>ondqd In Its prepara tion. Christmas is a CDnipufUind [word,made up of the two words Christ and mcujs. Christ Is the official name, and Jesus the historical name of the Savior. In the 1st chapter of Matthew, when the ai gel appeared •. to Joseph and spoke of the son to bo brought forth, he sald.VThou shalt call his numo Jesus; for he shall save his people from their sins." In the 1st chapter of Luke the angel told Maryj "Thou shalt bring fu ill a son and shalt call his name jor.f ” In the 2d chapter of Luke the angel said to the shepherds, "Fear not, for unto you Is born this day 111 the CT of David a Savior, which Is ChrlBt, the Lord," Christ, the a- riointed, la the Greek name for Jesus as the Messiah. When we say Jesus Christ, we have both the historical and official names of the Savior united. Mass Is the 'telebraUlan of the Lord’s supper i« Roman Catholic churches— from tho Latin words, "Ite missa eat” —Go, the congregation Is dismissed. This Is sAid at the close of the Bet- vice. Now; we have Christmas a fes tival of the Christian church, obser ved on the 25th day of December as the gonorally acc. ptcd annlveiv-ary of the birth of the Savior. The day was considered in the double light of a holy communion and a cheerful fes tival, and was accordingly distinguish ed by devotion, by vacation from business and by merrim?nt. Christ mas means much to us, who believe In God as our Maker and Christ us our iXMleeiner. lleer John in the 1st chapter jjnd 29th verse: "Behold God which UikcUi away is'lng ar? all lull In Je- '10, "For the !T> seek and to nJohn x: fiself speaking, "I ley might have life •might have It more n- nd in Revelations 111; vercometh the same shall n white raiment, and I blot his name out of tho of life, but will confess his name ifore my Father and b?fore his an gels." In all civilized countries Christmas —tho 25th of December—is recognised as the anniversary of the Savior’s birth and is in some way cjlebmted either civilly or religiously, and ot- tentlmes both civilly and religiously. The day seems In some way to pos sess. a charm above, all the other days. Shakespere makes Marcellos In Hamlet say:— "Some say that ever, 'gainst that season comes Wherein our Savior’s birth is e Ti trated, The bird of dawning elngeth all night long. And then, they say, no spirit dares stir abroad; The nights are wholesome; theu no planets strike. No fairy takes, no witch has power to charm." Christmas means the commenoratloui of the most important event In the world’s history. It means that a Sa vior of all mankind came into the world, and that love and good will toward all men should prevail. It means that, we must be happy our selves and do our best to make all others—especially the children—happy. It means that If wq are blessed In our "basket and our store," we must help In furnishing food and raiment And It m>aus that love 1b thy fill filling and that-— \ "The scrapH. Charity from heaven de scends . And o’er ttu world An shining pinion bonds; i Round mourning mortals, tender as a dove, She spreadk her wings yind nooihcs In tones of love, Pours living balm Into the wounded breast, And aids the l>oggar,though in tatter dreet. The orphans’ plaint she bauds,the wid ow’s sigh, And smiles uway the tear from sor row’s eye. Like some fair stream that through the desert flows, Fringed with the myrtle and the Per sian rose, Hhe scatters blessings all along her track And hope and Joy to want and woe bring back; And when the last faint sob In heard no more, Up to her native borders again she’ll soar." Hear a little story I rahrl some days ago. A pastor told one of his deacons that an old sister In th? church was sick and out of wood. The deacon said; "I have the wood and the team, but who will pay for it ?’’ The pas tor said, "If you will carry the wood and bufore going to bed tonight read the first three verses of the 41st Psalm, I will pay for the wood," and a few days after this the pastor met the deacon and asked how much he owed him for the wood. The d a- eon said, "Nothing, I would not take a thousand dollars for what 1 have done," The deacon had never read the 41st Psalm—that was all. Christ mas mehns that we have a crucified and ris?n Savior, who sitting on the throne of the Most High Is seeking ty win all men to goodness and to God. Hear his invitation: "Wanderer from thy Father's throne, Hasten back, thou erring one. Turn, thy sins will be forgiven; Turn and let thy song of praise Mingle with angelic lays. Wanderer, here is bliss for thee— Loave them all to follow me." Here we can find a balm for every wound and a solace for all of life’s cares. " 'Tls He the obstructed path of sound shall clear, And bid new music charm the unfold ing ear. The dumb-'aha 11 sing, the lame his crutch forego And leap exult’ng, like the bounding roe. No sigh, no murmur, the wide world shall hear. From every face He wipes off every tear." Seeing t'h n (hit wa have.a great High Prle t that Is passed Into lieaV- en, Jeans tihe Son of God, let us lay aside all wnworthiness and catch the spirit of tha ang 1 th it carried the good tidings of great Joy to the shepherds In the field n?ar to the city of David and j > n In gladsoma chorus with the multitude of t.ha hmvenly ho t with the glory of the them, praising to God In the peace.
