Preaching at the service on christian morning. the minister. the Rev. T. ii. B. Somors- said: n. the birth of that Blessed Babe‘ u, 19hr, ago, not only have we the oxplanation of ‘our presence here in Church this happy morning, nut w, have also the one great reason for the universal busynese of these “ya-for the buying and selling, ghe- rovelling and reioiclns. tic ex- pliant gladness of the children and 1h, general spirit of goodwill per- vading the world at this season of the yeav. Christmas has come and once more hearts are glad: homes are radiant. As Whittier sings: "Blow. bugles of _ battle, the. marches o peacfl East, west, north and south let the‘ long quarrol cease;

fling the song of great joy that the angels began.

51m: the glory of God and of good-will t1 merit"

Now why shpuld the birth of that child mean the inflow of so much 10y and gladnesa into the midst of these dull, winter days? Why these parties and presents? Why this universal atnfospffere""of goodwill penetrating even to the office and v/orkshop and market place? St. Matthew, searching the 0l<i Tcsbsment for references to, 1h:- Messiah, found the final an-, awe;- to these questions in Isaiah's famous prophecy: “Behold s virgin shall conceive and bear a son. Ind shall osll his name "Immanuel". ivhich bein-z interpreted is “God with Us". That beautiful Hebrew \ word "Immanuel" ls the key to an

understanding of the whole spirit and message of Christmas hrlst- mas stands for this. is reme bored for this-that God came down to men in Jesus Christ. Bu: we are here today not Just because "Jesus was born, but because He livesi Ho 1s the some today as yesterday- the some wonderful Friend and saviour, the same mighty Lord nnrl Redeemer. the sumo Incar- nate Son of God. And Christmas ls remembered the world over with so mucl: gladness and good- will because it marks the begin- ning o! this ama g. transform- ing friendship bet eon men and their Saviour St. Matthew begins his Gospel by‘ quoting Isaiah's glorious prophecy, He clone it by quoting that still moo‘, giorneus bromide made by the triumphant Lord Himself‘ "Lo, I em with you IlWIY. oven unto the ends." "Immanuel-Cod with Us". Cod is with as still because Christ is with as always.

Santa Pays Spoolal Visit To Sanitarium

The Provincial Sanatoriilt gaily decorated for the festive season, was the scene of great ex- citement on, Christmas eve when Santa Claus. complete with Jingle bells and accordion, paid a apo-

leial visit to the Si children who

are patients there. Airangcisients for the visit were made by the Rotary Cilia of Charlottetown and

Santa was ably portrayed by

J. Austin Trainer in his inimit- able manner.

Tho parcels of trays which Santa presented to cam child were gift! from the Junior Red Cross. as were the filled stockings which each child found at the foot of the bed on Christmas morning. The Sanatorlum was a verit- able fairyland in its Christmas garb with a beautifully decorated tree in each room under which were gaily wrapped gifts galore. The happy faces of all the pati- ents rcficcted the kindly thought- fulness of the Sanatorium staff who went to no end of trouble in making preparations for Christ- mas.

Personal Tributes

_'I'he Christian virtues exempli- fled in the life of Dr. Carla's were dealt with at the funeral service in an inapirina sermon by Rcv. Mr. McGowan, who recalled. as appm- sariate to the occasion, the follow- 1Il8 passage from Bunysnu "p". irrlnvs Pwsress’ dascribins the death of Mr. vuliant-for-Trutls:

"When the day that he must. go hence was come, many acconvp- anied him to the River side, into Whldl. as he went. he said: ‘Death, where is thy sting?’ And as he went. down deeper, he said, ‘Grave, where is thy victory?’ So he pasted over. and all the trumpets sounded for him on tho other side."

I-le also quoted impressively Tm- nyaonh memorable lines in ‘Cross- ing The Bar."

A brief sketch of Dr, (Ernie's career was given by Rev. Mir. Dun- bar. who referred to the deceased as one of Prince Edward Island's Ilcatcst benefactors.

"I oonsidar it one of the ascet- est honors of my life to make this tribute to our friend and loved one this afternoon." in». Dunbar con- tinued. "It was not my privilege to have known him long - scarcely more than a you". but tho very vivid memories of that short association will live with me down through the you; of time and will be cherished among my grandest recollections.

‘Dr. Conic was my piodecassor for a period of ll inooathl. as he cainc to tha relief of the church in its great hour qt need. Asiy suc- con of the present might be placed to his honor. It was very much like home to him to rousrn to Cen- otral Christian, for yoasa bofcrc he had labored earnutly with this gscup of people.
