Weather and Crops.
(From Wills Point Chronicle)
A heavy rain visited this section be-
tween midnight and day Tuesday morn-
ing and there was more rain during the
day, with indications o£ an approach-
ing norther. Fall plowing and other
farm work is again down and out and
at this time it can not be foretold how
long unfavorable weather may prevail.
Cotton not yet picked is further dam-
aged and it is likely that some farmers
will abandon picking altogether. Some
plowing has been done but so much
rain has fallen this week that amother
long wait is in store for those who want
to do winter plowing. There is nothing
that can be said of crops, just now.

The Republicans will, soon be in a
position to show whether or not they
wanted the League of Nations with
the reserva’iens they advocated when
the fight was on. It is a safe guess
that they will not put it through them-
selves with the reservations proposed
by them. Still the League is an accom-
plished fact, whether the Repulican
party puts the United States in at all.
as it is told over and over again, the
sweet story fans every heart into lam-
bent flame.
Through successive ages, all watch-
ed for the signs of the times. Under
starless skies millions watched for the
dawning light. In the time of Egyptian
bondage, in the long watches of srael-
itish wanderings, in their seasons of
vast dominion, in thir almost endless
enslavement to heathern powers—
through all these vicissitudes a broken-
Hearted nation pined for “the fulness
of time.”
Worn and weary, they sat by the
rivers and hung their harps upon the
willows. They could not sing the songs
of David in a strange land. Their harp
strings had long since been stilled. Ex-
pectant Israel wept and wept. Forty
fleeing centuries had gone. Their vast
hosts had dwindled down to the soli-
tary House of Judah. The royal House
of Israel was a by-word. Hope was
hopeless. A once world-power now
wept over the tomb of prophets and
the shrines of kings. Drowsy sheep and
shepherds had lain down beneath the
Syrian skies until the morning brake
again.
Above the indescribable roll of music
the shepherds caught the long lost
chord in the song of a world’s re-
demption: “Glory to God in the high-
est, and on earth peace, good will to-
ward men.” God’s last and best gift
had come—the last, because in the
Babe of Bethlehem the history of the
world from Eden to the final Paradise
found its last and final expression.
It brought life and immortality to
life. It put new blood into the veins
of the dead world. Every tomb would
now become the gateway to life.
Every tear would now be radiant with
the glories of the better world. Ilie
announcement of His birth changed
hovels into mansions and made prisons
palaces prove. It hid the sorrows pf
the world’s aching heart in the sweetest
depths of divine pity. It sent its throb
•f power to the remotest ends of the
cartl.
Deliverance had come at last.
Through idl those four thousand years
it had been one stupendous march
from Eden to Cavalry. And now we’ve
spent nearly two thousand years in our
.journeying from the Cross toward the
Eden of which we dream.
The ancient worthies had their
glimpses of God. Aird now we come
once more to that blessed season—the
day in which we celebrate all that won-
derful child means to us. Forty cen-
turies blazed the way for the coming
of the Child. However shadowy history
may have grown, it was one ceaseless
tread toward the one divine event in
history—the Cradle in Bethlehem. The
Child came and took its place in his-
tory, and now all history takes its
place in Him.
This is the story of the Child. As in
all history, every onward sweep of the
world starts with some cradle. Around
the Bethlehem cradle earth’s song and
story have lingered until His name is
on every tongue and in His presence
the weary wait for rest.
