No other holiday can ever produce the same spirit of universal j;ood feel ing that comes with Christinas. There were “glad tidings of great joy” on the first Christmas morning and with eaeli recurring anniversary of the event the soul of man grows mellow under the softening influences of the day, hu manity is strsngtheued, sorrows aie forgotten, enmities are laid aside and a genial merriment rules among the brotherhood of men. Christmas m the South means more than it does in some other sections of •the Union. Tlio pilgrim fathers who came over jn the May flower and whose austere in stitutions will give color in some.re spects to the customs of the Northern people, M ore a sect of reformers, and they regarded Christmas with some of the same skepticism that they attached to othe church festivals, ami, therefore to a great extent divested the day of its sanctity. They set apart u day of their own for prayer and thanksgiving, which with them became more important than Christmas and »s largely so with their descendants. But it was not that way iu the South. In this section the people adhered to the Christmas of merry old England and to the Southerner of the present no other day could possibly have the same significance. We have adopted in a mild way tho Puritan Thanksgiving in tho South. It is a good day to eat tur key and take a holiday hunt. We givo patriotic observance to the Fourth of July and wo wish our neighbors a hap py Now Year. But to tho genuine Southerner nouo of these days iu auy respect has tho glorious significance that attaches to Christmas. None can bring tho jollity and loving kindness of that which was first proclaimed to the shepherds at Bethlehem. In German folk lore there is a legend of the Christmas rose, or, more proper ly, of the Christmas rosebush. The story it too long to toll in full hero, but the main point is that all tho year this bush was leafless and brown, but with with the coming of Christmas it bur geoned and blossomed. That rose- bash was typical of (he human heart that plods a weary way through life, bnt grows warm and bright at Christ- mis. All men of all conditions are glad at Christmas time. The most commendable feature of the Christmas spirit, that most in ac cord with the true meaning of the day, is charity. The liest way to be happy onrselves is to maks someone else hap py and in giving relief to the poor this can best be realized. While Amuricus Las one of tbo fluent h) stems of public education of any city in Georgia, it 1s a lameutable fact that thi« does not include that branch so thoroughly essential to the dtv lop inniit of the young mind and body— a totiool of manual training. But this, even, is now within onr reach, if we desire it. Americas can easily have sutih a val uable addition to her t-choolp, for there are others who will willingly give finano al aid if we are disposed to help ourselves. The limes-Recorder presenle at length iu its editorial columns this morning most excellent reasons for the eHabiir-bmcut of a school of wjuttal training, atd here only propoies to tell how this cun b.j secured—the beat investment our city could make. If wo will help, only half, tod fiuy tb * cost, we can get it, A prominent citizen of Amuricu-, in Atluutu a day or two ago, was ap pro iched by a distinguished educator wiih the suggestion that if out peop/e would defray half the cost of tBtublish- tug such a school here, the remaini g funds necessary would be forthcoming. Th uk of that proposition; other peo ple, people interested in the education of cur boys and girls, will giva half the money—no matter whatthe amount —if wo OLly will give half. The Timet-Tlecorder begs to impress upon the people of Americu* the iuj portuuoo of accepting this got Jon o| • porlunity. Let us discuss it together, uud appreciate fully the advantage of adding this most important branch to ihe public srhit|l system of America*.
