This Is My 5 1st Birthday

The Coming

There ara twenty-eight days In which you can buy yoar Chrtstmaa preaenta. x The coming of cold weather telle tha tale of the progress of the year toward the time of fellowahlp. It a a strange thing how aU things ara connected. It has been but a few days since tha election in which there was a battle for all Americans a nation torn up over right and wrong a day set apart when men could go and register their opinion on how they and their fellow men should be governed. Moreover it was an election in which the Issue was "Man is greater than the mere , dollar" . ; . . - . - ; - . And a month from now we shall see Christmas. There will be few newspapers that will carry on as strenuous a campaign preceding the birthday of Jesua Christ aa they did preceding November 8., And yet the issue is precisely the same yet greater in its extent. , '". Then Instead of voting on a day In secret we shall have a series of unconscious acts on every day.

. Last year, to their credit, be it said, the people of this town turned out long before Chrtstmaa they bought their preaenta early, ut the stores were crowded up till Chrtstmaa night.

There are more real Christians In this town than many people hare any Idea of. It was only today that the Meanest Man in the whole town (in people's estimation) turned out of his way to help a woman with her young baby and a load of baggage on to a car going to the station. lie is the sort of man who does not like to display the good that is In his heart. But if that man does buy any Christmas presents that one act Is enough to convince us that he never buys them on the night before Christmas. He never goes to church at least he has not for many years and yet he would not profane the daya before Christ's holiday with buying gifts late at night. Thi matter of Christmas presents is the one thing of the every day man's life when be actually removes himself from his shell and unbends.

Mr. Mahy who Is holding meetings in this town has a splendid opportunity to preach a little sermon on practical Christianity right now. The whole world is crying for it. It wants but the application of real thoughtfulness on the part' of Just ordinary everyday people to make life much nearer heaven and less like hell for their own kind. That is what we are alf after. - The customers of men will meet them half way or more than half way In this Christmas shopping business. Men are beginning to be ashamed at Christmas time to commit a real sacrilege. The time may come when they will become aware that the deed done on the week day li Just ai holy as that done on the .Sabbath. . That is where this Christmas ahopping movement leads to. Isn't that what we are all after rich man. poor man. beggar man thief. It was the thief who was on the Cross. It waa the Christ who taught that with his own life.

By the church calendars this is the Advent season. This is the time of the Coming. As you go down the street there is a strange mixture of. barbarlo and pagan festival spirit. It is a mixture of the Beast and God. But that is good. For we are both Beast and 'God. Let us make haate then to adore the God and propitiate the Beast that Is within us, else w are 'surely damned like an 111 roasted egg all on one side."

Christmas Is a time In which to be happy. That does not alone mean you and your ' family. "Shop early" means more than tha words. Gentleness, faith, hope, kindness and fellowship.

A Real Thanksgiving

Let us thank God today. ' Not only for the plentiful harvest of grain, fat oxen, and the sheep

In their fold but for the harvest of men.

What we have sown that have we alao reaped. Figs we have not from thistles, .what have we sown? David, the King of Jerusalem, told In his proclamation of TbansgivIng, of his cities, and the cities of his fathers; how they were filled with stuffs from the Indies, and Jewels, yes, and the spoil of Kings. He told of his palace, and of his well watered lands, of the .orchards and the dancers the singers, men singers and women. .

He told of the financial prosperity of the country, especial Thanksgiving. ' . The store houses of the land were full of grain, peace, and, so he told the tale. - But what of the harvest of men? All, said David, Is vanity. The worldly hope has turned ashes In his mouth.

This was a year of

the

nation

was at

. So today In America, the test of prosperity is not in the well filled ' barns but In the young men who are 'learning scientific farming at places like Purdue, The boys of Wayne county who are In the Boys' Corn club are the real harvest to be thankful for. So In places like the University of Kansas and Wisconsin, the seeker! after truth who have given up "success" for themselves have sent out men who are men to fight in the world for the truth. ' Lafollette is a product of Wisconsin's University. All the men wfio are lined up for the fight for the people are the men from the University. - Why? - Because the guardlana of their trust, are such men as Ross and Bemls. . . ..; V ' ". ; ; Ross, the teacher of philosophy, who Is preaching that the man who wrecks a savings bank or who waters stock is more of a criminal than the degenerate Harry Thaw or Dr. Crippen. Bemls, the political economist, who sees the light gleaming through the years connecting the fight of '76 against taxation without representation. In the monopoly of public service corporations, which by their rates give them the power to take for private purposes. And Parsons"' Parsons, the leader or them all, In the obscure Kansas Agricultural ' college who died a national figure known of all young men.

Parsons who preached the initiative, referedum and recall lone be

fore commission government was established. Parsons, who ploughed the ground for the pdblic service franchises which we are .Just hearing about.. . . . : -., . , . Parsons, of Insurgent Kansas. It'a men that count , i You. we all of us. What of the harvest of men?

What of the young internes in the hospitals giving up their lives tor their fellow men In the fight against tuberculosis? What of the Country doctor .fighting death? , Do you remember the men who gave up their lives to learn the secret of yellow fever. '" What of the harvest of men? : - - -

KILLED IN DISPUTE

OVER 5 CENT FARE Ft. Wayne, Ind., Nov. 24. As the

outcome of a dispute over a 5-cent car

afre, Joseph A. Kaiser, a conductor on

the city1 street railway lines, struck H. E. Slegmond, a Pennsylvania fallroa'd fireman, over the temple with a awltch hook, shortly before last midnight Inflicting Injuries from which Slegmond died a few minutes later. Unaware of

the fatal termination of the encounter, Kaiser and his motorman, L. B. Easterday, hurried to the police station and gave themselves up. Kaiser asserting that he had acted wholly in self-defense after Slegmond, 'in the presence of passengers, had threatened to shoot him.

The tragedy occurred at the eastern

limits of the Pontlac car line when

the car was ready to make Its last return trip for the night. Slegmond had boarded the car In the downtown dis

trict and later, when the conductor asked him for his fare, insisted that he had already paid. '

' Attorneys? The word attorney has taken on a new meaning since Louis D. Brandeis and Pepper, of Philadelphia 'have won for themselves

the title, "The Attorneys for the People." .Ton remember .the Glavis in

There follow the "certain rich men,, Spreckles. Churchill the red blood type and not the yellow.

Pinchot Winston

"Man Is greater than mere money," said Pinchot In Richmond dur

ing the campaign.

So let us pray today for the men who love the chance to fight rather than the fighting chance. A prayer for men and their harvest for doctors, investigators, newspaper men, the men In the, forest service, the attorneys for the people and the certain rich men of red blood. .They are men--and they shall reap their harvest : David and hia palaces or David and his wisdom? This Is Thanksgiving. " '
