It’s very few men that have a taste for “dry” literature. CHRISTMAS •! By RICHARD H. EDMONDS, Editor Manufacturers Record, All history, from the day when Adam and Eve were driven by the power of sin out of the Garden of Eden, has been, as it harf been said, His-story,— the story of Him whose birth was her¬ alded by the angelic choir to the shep herds who tended their flocks on Ju¬ dea’s plain 1900 years ago, in heaven¬ ly music such as earth had never before heard. With prophetic vision men had point¬ ed to the time of His coming. Through all the ages ail things converged to the birth of a Redeemer from sin for man¬ kind; and since then all human history has diverged from that birthday and from the cross of Calvary. Upon that one central fact in the world's history the world’s best literature has been written; the world’s best songs have been sung; the world’s greatest poems penned; the world's greatest paintings limned; the world’s greatest statues carved; and even in things of business wherever and whenever B. C. or A. D. appear in chronological statements, the whole race testifies in one way or another to the supremist even in the history of mankind, and perhaps the supremist event in Heaven’s plans, or which will appear so long as eternity lasts. Wipe out, if it could be done, the paintings based upon the birth and th« death of the Bon of God; blot out the books that have been written, the poems which have inspired the highest thoughts of mankind, the statues which have been carved by the great¬ est sculptors of the world, and you would practically destroy the bast that is in every art gallery and every li¬ brary. Astronomers tell that they can now count more than 300,000,000 stars, and that one of them has a diameter of 3,000,000 miles as compared with tin* 8,000 mile diameter of the world we inhabit; that light traveling at the rate, of 18,000 miles a second takes more than 2000 years to reach us from some of these distant worlds. What beings inhabit these worlds, which are without number, w y e know not, nor shall we know until we have “crossed over the bar” and taken our places among the immortals who are to live through the ages which are without beginning and without end. The Crea¬ tor of these worlds, from whose hand they were launched into space, by whose command they sweep through eternity and sing their endless “music of the spheres,” came to earth, was horn in a manger, and died upon the cross to bring redemption from sin to mankinds. “The price of anger is failure,” say the philosophers of the Orient. Only a fool will pride himself on the readi j ness Real of his strive temper control to display them^lves itself. men to i in every emergency.
