Our Daylight • Th 'f S ' ore Is
Policy Has Met Not Open
With Approval An y Evening
Several years ago this store adopted the policy of closing on
Christmas eve. This permitted our salespeople to enjoy Christmas
without being unnecessarily fatigued at the close of a busy holiday
season.
For years we have advocated closing stores on Saturday eve
nings. This year we practice what we have advocated. Further
more, we will not be open any evening preceding Christmas.
\\ e trust it will not be many years before other local stores will
• see the wisdom of this policy, now practiced in leading cities.
The most remarkable increase of business that any old estab
lished business house could hope for has been our good fortune.
This would seem to imply that our customers have approved the
policy adopted in behalf of our employes. Not only have they
adapted themselves to the daylight shopping practicl, but from the
substantial increase, it is plainly evident that many new friends
have expressed their approval by their liberal patronage.
For this manifestation of goodwill by the public, we are sincerely
appreciative, and in reminding you again that this store will not
be open any evening before Christmas, we suggest—

The International Sunday School Lesson For De
cember 22 Is "The Birth of Jesus"
Luke 2:8-20
By WILLIAM T. ELLIS
For two thousand years the Christ
mas bells have been ringing in pro
phecy; now they ring In realization!
Peace for nil the world is here. The
victory bells that still are ringing
ire also peace bells, taking up the
glad refrain of the centuries. No
where on earth is there a malign na
tion designing to oppress or invade
or usurp.
While all the world maizes Christ
mas plans, there sits an Vlnterna
ttonal conference—the most signifi
cant since the shepherds met the
Holy Family In the stable of the
Bethlehem khan—to assure that tran
quility and good will prevail perma
nently. After the great war is a
great peace. The Council of Nations
now in session is undertaking defi
nitely to preclude future strife.
This tremendous fact, which over
shadows all our Christmas-keeping,
seems almost Incredible. Our war
wounded and war-weary world can
scarcely grasp It. That this Christ
mas, the most Chrlstrnasy ever
known, has come as a consummation
of the hopes and prayers of millions
beyond belief of Imagination. Heaven
Bhould be storpied this year by praises
and acclaims almost rivaling the
celestial tumult created on Holy
Night, when first the world was given
news of its supreme Hope.
Wlint It Son Meuns to Bethlehem
Certain matters of fact crowd
themselves upon our attention this
Christmas, so that there is scarcely
opportunity to muse over the signifi
cance of the Birth of the Babe and
Its circumstances. For the places of
his nativity und earthly life are now
free. For centuries an oppression
more cruel than the Roman has held
sway over the land made holy by the
foot-prints of Jesus. Within three
years, hundreds of thousands of
dwellers therein have died of starva
tion or of violence. Such want and
misery as this bountiful western con
tinent does not know, have beep
gaunt inhabitants of the former home
of Jesus.
Now neither the Roman census
laker nor the Turkish official af
frights the people of David's ancient
town of Bethlehem. Men do not
have to hide food one from another.
Suspicion and intrigue have given
way to good will and mutual confi
dence. Food Is abundant and freely
displayed. British soldiers, from the
far-flung limits of the empire stalk
familiarly through the streets where
once the shepherds and the Magi
walked, and their presence is a sign
of protection and of liberty. "The
house of bread," which is the mean
ing of Bethlehem, has again become
the home of abundance. The artisans
sit In their little shops cutting moth
er-of-pearl souvenirs for visitors to
send to the ends of the earth. A new
atmosphere of freedom and prosper
ity and happiness has conic to the
town of the Nativity, in fulfillment of
the Christmas prophecy.
So it is also in the beautiful little
city of Nazareth, with its Fountain
of the Virgin stilt flowing abundant
ly In tlio square, even as it did when
the Virgin Mary carried a water Jar
to its stream. All around the hills
which shut In the community seem
to be fresher and greener than ever;
for, since the battle of Armageddon,
f< tight on Esdraelon's historic plain
by General Allenby's troops, the peo
ple have been free and safe and fed.
the Turks and the Germans having
been driven out.
This Christmas sees every sqdnre
yard of the land once trodden by the
fiet of Jesus delivered from Imme
morial tyranny; and entering upon
a new day of promise. Did the an
gels who sang so jubilantly on Holy
Night foresee this greatest of all
Christmas days?
The People of Ihc Bulie
It Is easy to Imagine a commotion
in cclestinl realms 'his Christmas!
Heaven's highest hopes are being ful
filled. rrophe.-y Is become realize
tlon. Bound into new unity and fel
lowship, aware of Its Interdepend
ence and reliance upon a spirit of
good will, all the earth is flooded
with Christmas rejoicings. This is
no ordinary Christmaq, to be ob
served in usual fashion, it Is a timo
to enter Into the spirit of the Christ
mas Land Itself.
Not only Is old Judea free, and
Samaria, and lowly Galilee, where
Jesus roamed, but even Arabia, to
the East, whoso dangerous desert
sands the Wise-men crossed, is now i
place of safety and of promise. Ish
n.ael shares tile blessings of the
household of Isaac.
We cannot forget that this Christ
mas finds the people of Jesus free.
All over the world, except, possibly,
in chaotic Russia and its northwest
ern borders, where red anarchy
reigns, the Jews have been delivered
from immemorial restrictions anil
persecutions. In Rumania and Tur
key and Europe, they have been
given full rights of citizenship.
More wonderful than that: the
Jews are free to return to the land
if their fathers, and to settle therein.
As soon as they possess a majority
of the population tliey may rule In
old Canaan, coming to theocracy by
way of democracy. Not since thi
time of King Solomon have the elitl
uron of Abraham had such unimpeded
and unmenaced liberty in the Land
of Promise.
The Unite of Iho People
And all because a Babe was born
in Bethlehem! Truly, Ills name has
become "Wonderful," and "Counsel
lor," and He Is t[ie "Deliverer," with
"the government upon His shoul
ders." Simeon foresaw- far when he
declared that this Babe was set fo.*
thi rise and fall of many. The news,
as it now speeds faster than angel's
flight through the pure ether above
to all the earth below, translated in
to terms of the victory of righteous
ness on the battlefield, and of peace
conferences and world parliaments,
in verily "good tidings of great joy,
which shall be to all people."
• We have glanced at what this
Christmas means to the people of the
Babe; now to consider the Babe of
the people. Never did the sublime
truth mean so much as to-day. that
Jesus came not In royal state to
kingly palace: nor even to the luxur
ious home of the rich; but that he
v. as born In the lowliest circum
stances, close to the toilers met at
the inn, and son of an artisan house

I Babe in a manger: and brought Him

' with a worklngman's labor for His

; This was a new Idea. Even yet
the whole earth has not grasped it.
j Jesus embodied a fresh truth—the

He incarnated them in an artisan.
Whatever it was possible for God to
make known concerning Himself
was to be seen in the character of
Jtsus, the carpenter.
