ei Sard \ Page, 6, The Haileyburian Thursday, December 15,, 1960, Across the Kitchen Table By MRS. MAC . The following little article, clip- ped from the Christian Science Monitor, and written by an eleven year old girl when she was told by"her teacher to write a para- graph about something she hated, seemed worth sharing with my readers. "I thought and thought but I guess I like everything, except boys. This doesn't include men, just boys. I really don't hate boys, they just bother me. I know the world wouldn't be anywhere with- out them, but sometimes I wish they weren't here. They'll always be here so I'll just have to get used to them. I hope I do pretty quick because I know some real cute ones."

THE sian hleeaal ~ And FE pe ytatement of Henry Ford's speaks for it's self: "T believe in prohibition because I' believe in the industrial order that America is creating. Booze is as much out of place in that new order as a horse and buggy in down-town Detroit -- and a lot more dangerous. The horse and buggy order is gone; and liquor had to go with it. Society could take chances back of a dashboard that it can't afford to take behind a steering wheel." * %* * Now that the weather has be- come ia bit colder, it seems more like the Christmas season. Up to last week-end it has seemed more like early in November than the second: week in December, Dur- ing the week-end, Mrs. 'Cameron and I got the pictures removed from the livingroom wall and quite a few of the decorations up, with, of course, ia bit of helpful advice from the grandchildren. Nan's dec- orations are always a point of interest for them, and the "young- est one walks gravely around and expresses his opinion, good or bad, of what I have done. This year we are having a Scotch pine Christmas tree, which I hope will prove satisfactory. For the past three years I have had cedar, which is lovely and does not shed, but my poor son-in-law has had to travel miles to get a suitable one and last year he told me, ra- ther strongly, that was the last cedar he was looking for. So I very meekly said "O.K.", but I am afraid that if the Scotch pine hadn't appeared on the scene, L would probably have said, "Please, please, pretty please', and got my cedar again. Sons-in-law are nice, at least mine are. Mission Circle Holds Parly Members of the Pentecostal Mis- sion Circle held their Christmas party at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Campbell in New Lis- keard.

For over 1900 years, people and nations have kept this day -when Christ was born. At that time Au- gustus Caesar was the Emperor, and the Roman Empire extended itself further then ever before, or since, to Parthis one way, and Britain the other way. Now was the time when the Messiah was to' be born according to the prophecy in Daniel 11:44: 'In the days of those kings, the kings of the fourth Monarchy. Shall the God-of heaven set. up a kingdom which shall never be destroyed. - Christ was born when Judea had become a province of the Empire tributary to it. When all the Ro- man Empire was taxed, the Jews were taxed among the rest. Jeru- salem was taken by Pompey, the Roman general, about 60 years be- for this. Judea was now ruled by Cyrenius, the Roman governor of Syria. Now was the time the Mes- siah was to be born: for so was dying Jacob's prophecy, "that Shiloh should come when the scep- tre was departed from Judah and the law-giver from between his feet." This was the first taxing that was made in Judea. Jesus was born in Bethlehem. So it was foretold in Micah 5:2: "But thou Bethlehem, Ephratech, though thou be little among the thousands of Judah, yet of thee, shall come forth unto me, that is to be a ruler in Israel whose go- ings forth have been from old, from everlasting." Bethlehem signifies the house of bread; a proper place for Him to be born, who is the Bread of Life. The Bread came down from Hea- ven. As Scriptures tell, Mary and Jo- seph journeyed from Galilee out of Nazareth, unto Bethlehem, to be taxed or registered. This was a distance of about 80 miles and it would take at least three days for them to reach the city and no doubt they were tired. At this time Bethlehem: was overcrowded with those who had come from all parts of the land to be enroll- ed: Even the inn was filled. There was no place for those two weary people to stay after their long tire- some journey from Nazareth. Finally they found shelter in a stable, where cattle slept, spent the night there; because there was no room in the inn, Christ was born in a stable. 'He wos laid in a man- ger, instead of a cradle and Mary, his mother wrapped him in swad- dling clothes. He should be called Jesus for he came 'to save his people. uel -- "God with us." It was customary for most shepherds to stay in the open fields with their flocks from April to au- tumn, but the shepherds of the temple flocks lived in the open with their sheep all the year round. The angel was not sent to the chief priests or elders. They were not ready to receive these things, -but a company of poor shepherds who were, like Jacob, dwelling in 'tents: "And Lo, the Angel of the Lord shone around about them: and they were sore afraid and the angel said unto them fear not for behold I bring good tidings of great joy which shall be to all people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour which is Christ the Lord, and this shall be the sign unto you. Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes lying in a man- ger and suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the hea- venly host praising God and say- ing Glory to God in the highest and peace on earth, good will to- ward all men."' The angels departed from them into heaven. The shepherds left to go to Bethlehem to see what the Lord had made known and they made haste and found Mary and Joseph and the babe lying in a Also His name should be Imman- \ Christ's Birth Foretold. In Ancient Prophecies "For unto us a child is born, manger. pip Strengthened Faith ~ We have reason to think the shepherds told Joseph and' Mary of the vision of the angels they had seen and the song of the an- gels and it is probable that Joseph and Mary told the shepherds what visions they had concerning the child and so by telling their ex- periences to teach eath other, they greatly 'strengthened one another's faith. After the shepherds had seen the Christ Child they spoke about it and returned glorifying and praising God's Gift to redeem men. Later some wise men from the east came to visit the Christ Child and brough presents, gold, frankin- cense and myrrh. women, boys and girls to give Him gifts. Do you know what he wants? He wants each one of you for*His own. He asks his children "give me your hearts." We must never forget the reasons why Jesus left heaven's glory and came to earth. He came to give us eternal life. He gave His only begotten Son; that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have ever lasting life." God's word tells us that Jesus came to save sinners. If you haven't already, take the gift that God so freely offers, and give the Lord Jesus your whole heart? If you do you will have the happiest Christmas yau have ever had, and you will want to make others happy too. Mrs. Myrtle Newton, Thornloe, RR No. 1.
