an extraordi I nary account of the birth of Christt written by Washington Gladden i The story Is told with completeness and realityJust as one might re late the story of the birth of Lini coln or any other great man Joseph and Mary were young peo plo wbo lived In Nazareth of Galilee which is sixty miles north of Bethi lehem They had to go to Bethle hem because It was the city in which their family belonged and the Roman emperor who was making myat census In his empire required every family to be enrolled In IIts native place So Joeseph and Mary had com In the middle of the winter to this old town of Bethlehem It was along Journey for thoso days and loose roads far more wearisome than a trip to Denver or Minneapolis would be for people on the Hudson I or In Connecticut If they traveled by the principal road as doubtless they did we know exactly the route they followed across the great plain of Esdraelon over the mountains of Samaria and the hill country of Judea to the great city of Jerusalem then southward 1 about six miles from that city to Bethlehem Now let Dr Gladden proceed with his narrative Whether Joseph and Mary ha ever visited Bethlehem before we do not know The first thing to do was to find a place where they could abide iIn Bethlehem and this was no easy task The little town seems to have been full of people who had come perhaps upon the same errand that brought them You can iIm- agine i how It would be If all the de scendants of all the families that once lived In one of the old New England hill townsIn Leltchtleld1 say or Deerfleld or Leomlnster I r all these families In all parts o the country were ordered to go back There and register So it was at Bethlehem Very little dependence was placed on Inns or hotels by travelers In those days There were few places of public entertainment Every private famil gladly received and kindly cared for such pilgrims as chanced to pass through their neighborhood But no matter how hospitabl- men may be when their houses ar full to overflowing they can take no 1 1more guests and this was the condition In which Joseph and Mary found the homes In Bethlehem To the inn they made their way but the inn was simply a shelter a shed enclosing a court with no fur nature and no other provision for the comfort of the traveler than theI stone walls and the roof which pro tected him from the storm Her upon the bare floor he could spread his rugs for sleep here he could partake of the food that he had brought In his haversack and his beast could be left secure In the court within the building Such were the Inns or khans of the East when Joseph and Mary came to Bethlehem But even suchI Old comfort as this was not for them The bare shelter was so crowded that there was no room i for them there The only place I j f they could llnd was In the stable and this as seems probable was a kind of cave or excavation In the I side of the rock near the Inn I It has been believed from the earliest day that the place where r Jesus was born was a cave under a I sheltering rock This story was Current among His followers not a hundred years after His death andI I there is no reason to doubt Its truth It was perhaps some such place as the pioneers In Minnesota andI Dakota used to call a dugouta shelter partly underground where man and beast together wore some tUtncs forced to find protection from the wintry cold This was the best entertainment Joseph and IaryII could find In Bethlehem and hereJJ It was that the wonderful Babe wasII born and found His cradle In a mangerThus It was that the life which was and Is the Light of Men began hero on tho earth Doubtless this I was the greatest moment in the worlds history Could anyone who looked on this babe as He lay In the manger have dreamed of the place I He wo lflll of tine changes He t would bring of the kingdom that He I would establish In the world 3 Could anyone there have guessed that nineteen centuries from that hUImanI selves by His name and mire thane half the earths population would be reckoning their years from the day of His birth that every seventh dan millions on millions of 1w- mart VoIce would be liftedk v up in song ro Him in churches and Sunday Schools and missions all round the world that the nob lest music the world would ever hear would be music celebrating the birth the life and the death of this little Babe that the highest and purest art of all time would be that In which the story was told of the young Child and His mother that the noblest architecture the world would ever see would be that which prepared a shrine for the worship of this Babe of Bethlehem- a that His birthday would be kept allover the world as a day for giving gifts and sharing pleasures and that It would be the happiest dale of all the days of the whole round year No none of us could have conceived of such a history as that to whose beginnings we look bad on Christmas Day There has been no parallel to It In the annals of the centuries The facts which I have recited give some Indication of the I place that He has won In the thought and affection of mankind but there are those of us who believe that the greatness of His do minion is yet to be achieved for It is only within a generation that th real nature of His kingdom has be gun to take possession of American thought The world Is now at last beginning to see what Chrlstianit- d means that It really proposes t shape the whole of human soclet here and now according to Its law ofgood will that It calls us td supplant strife by cooperation and suspicion by sympathy to oak fthe spirit of Christmas the law every day In the year It has otII ken the world a long long time get hold of the real meaning oj I Christs life and teachings andt death but It begins to dawn upo I j us In these first years of the twen tleth century and when the thrlst Ian Church learns to put the amt phasls where It belongs His kingdom will come and His will b done in earth as in

Gordon of the Philadelphia Bra The supremo holiday of Christ llianity has become the holiday ofI nil creeds and all races Even un belief yields to practlco what It de nies to dogma Over all the earth the spirit of Christman fills the hearts of mora people than are over at any time animated by any other single emotion Christmas Is no longerthe property of the Church alone It has been approbated an the festival of humanity This un 4 Iversallty of celebration of a day III originally set apart by those only holding a particular religious belief Is a unique and profound social phenomenon Its reason Is not dif ficult to llnd- Christmas IB the day assigned by tradition to the birth of a poor child who afterward became the founder of a religious system ad herence to which for centuries succeeding 14 was a reproach In the courts of power and the palaces of r the rich His humble birth as nar- ratedl by the Authors of the Christ Ian Scriptures was attended by In cidents unusual and miraculous A planet moving through thd sky stayed its course and paused over the spot where the Infant lay while men of Jewish faith guided by the celestial courier brought gifts to the feet of the lowly babe Mean while the shepherds of tho Judoan hills heard a host of angels pro claim the new birth and announce from the heavens the evangel of peace and good will among men No other religion thus ushered I Into being was over presented to a weary and oppressed worlda world In which beneath the Roman eagles the tramp of the legions of Caesar was heard from the rising to the setting of the sun Peace and good willgood will and peace The bloodstained earth smiled with Joy at the prophecy and the singing of the slave drowned the clank of his chains The wise and favored ones brought gifts to the helpless unfriendly and despised babe Power stooped to weakness wealth laid of its treas the at the door of poverty This is tho historic setting of the first Christmas morning which gives to each recurring anniversary a more widespread recognition Not stopping to think of its religious igntflcance millions appropriate the essential gospel of Christianity proclaimed at the nativity and mil I lions who reject the theological 4status of tho Christ taught by the Churches celebrate the spirit of the day that saw His birth For one r day at least the civilized world is a brotherhood for one day at least a universal commune sentiment is established in which the disparity of conditions among men is obliter ated In a common emotion of good will This is the Christmas spirit that captivates all nations and creeds and wraps the world in a mantle of light And herein is hope for tho fu ture The philosophy of optimism can point to Christmas as the most signal proof of thtf nobler aspira tions and the higher possibilities of humanity A childs lowly birth I and a gospel of four wordsPeace- and good will transform for one day a world of selfishness into a world of altruism In the practice of the day

of from I 10 to 50 years In tho Idaho Smto i Penitentiary for the murder of Ills mother Clad In tho regulation prison garb of a striped suit made with leo trousers tho child Is confined not far from the cell of Harry Tho OrchardII to associate with tho prison yards but Is kept In the li brary where under the direction of the warden and the librarian the little fellow dally studies and recites his lessons in much the salute manner as ho did before he was ta ken from the schoolroom The li brarian who Is known as a trus ty Is tho only prisoner with whom tho boy is permitted to associate I Whittaker has been a prisoner at tho Institution only two months but ho has unusual privileges Al though Bertlllon measurements have been taken and he has been photographed and numbered 1949 the warden and the guards do not believe for a moment that the boy prisoner will try to escape The ordinary prisoner must have served the greater part of his sen tence before receiving tho freedom of the prison grounds outside the walls but Whittakers case Is a singular one and when the boy Is not studying or reciting his lessons ho may be seen about the outside of the walls playing hide and seek with the wardens children or amusing himself by teasing the bloodhoundsNot liberty has been grant ed to the boy however for at fi oclock when the gong sounds he flies through the great Iron gate way In a clear shrill voice he gives his number to the turnkey who counts him as one among the 260 prisoners Young Whittaker in August 1912 shot and Instantly killed his mother on a ranch near Sarllda Fremont county Tho mother was doing the family washing She didI not have sufficient strength wit which to turn the wringer She asked her son to help her He re fusedHis father spanked him and or tIered him to do the work He did not turn the wringer fast enough to suit his mother so she spanked him Shortly afterward she left the house When she returned the child had procured his fathers shotgun Without saying a word1 he pointed the weapon at his moth er and fired- Specialists believe that the childs mind is unbalanced although at allI times he appears to be rational What Is considered the strangest feature of the case Is that the boy shows absolutely no feeling of re morse for having killed his mother Boise Cor Washington Post Ment has been going up In prince over since men loft off eating each

of 200 tons When the McHenry tipple burned he pooled Render and Echols and thus gets 750 tons on alternate days at both mines The joint capacity was 1550 and rated at 750 tons He received 44 percent

This ruling which was ask ed by the railroad company as well as by the several classes of opera tors If applied to the situation at Mcllenry Ohio county Kentucky may settle the car shortage and rev suiting troubles there also The commission recognized two kinds of minesJunction point f mines and all others- It also Is hold that mines which have outlet by river shall be treat ed as junction point mines that Is that upon days for which the June i tion point mine orders no cars from another carrier it shall have its full rating on the Illinois Central that upon a day for which it orders cars from ono other carrier Its rating on the Illinois Central for that day shall bo 75 per cent of Its full rating and that upon a day for which It orders cars from two other car t riers Its rating on the Illinois Cen tral for that day shall be 50 per tent No order was issued to back up the decision the commission ex pressing the view that such was hot necessary to force the railroad to comply with the new standard The local operators In tho Kentucky field urged a rating based upon theI shipments over the Illinois Central for an extended period excludingi the time during which a mine Is shut down for fifteen or more con secutive days and providing that IfI a mine secures a new contract ox tending over a period of fourIi months or more such additional f tonnage will be added to the estab-
