THE CHILD AND CNRISTMM
A Sermon Preached on Sunday, Dec
21st, in the Christian Church, Pa-
lacios, by the pastor, Edward
Owen.
"Unto you Is born In the city of
David a Savior which is Christ the
Lord.” Luke d ll.
This Is the heppr Christmas time
and the child is King.
From the time the angel laid, '‘Fear
not; for behold, I bring yon good tid-
ing* of great jOv, which ahall be to all
people. For unto you le born in the
citv of David a Savior, whioh is Christ
the Lord,” tbe cndle baa been Con-
verted into a throne. No Monarch
of the earth holds each undisputed
■way over hie subjects as the little
•overign of the home. The little head
wean the erown, and the tiny hand
bear* the scepter.
Thl* le tbe child’* season of tbe
year. The memory of eome revert
back to the joye of Chrietmas, and
notwithstanding tbe deeper joys and
experiences that oome to us In after
years, we sometimes wonder if any
joy ean be more pure and ylvid than
the joy of childhood
Well for us that the Christmas time
should revive these memories, other
wise we might become cold and bard
and loveless; absorbed as we are In
grappling with the stern, hard oondl
tions of life, we might forget that
Heaven Is real or that thia old world
was eVer touobod with a glory that
ahone on land or sea. It is good to
feel the glow whioh comet from the
days that are no more, and to bring
ourselves under tbe inspiration of the
prayer which oan never be answered
in litoral fashion.
'‘Baokwsrd, torn backward, O Time
in thy flight,
Make me a child again, jostfor to-
night.”
Is it true, u men tell ns, that the
gladness of life has really vanished
from onr aging earth and that, be-
tween the greedy quest of gold end
the feverish pursuit of pleasure, meh
rush through life with neither the in-

Itbat when a bill goea before tbe
legislature asking the government
to appropriate fund* for the build-
ing of those-raada and maintaining
them, such a bill would meet with
tbe support of every representative
and congressmen in the home and
[senate.
Ia system of highways comprising
lupwarda of 50,000 milee has beep
mapped out, Tbto system, while
comprising only 2 per ceot of tbe
actual highways of tbe United
States, serves 60 per cent of tbe
population directly, and ah addition-
al 15 per cent of tbe population
abutting on tbe territory covered by
[this network of highways. ,
I The bill to be presented by tbe
Rational Highways association at
the present session of tba legists*
Iture will provide for a national high*
IwaA commission to be composed of
[about fifteen men taken from the
oivil walks of ljje—men who have
engineering ability—who will take
up tba aotiya surveying and con-
struction of these roads. It is pro-
posed that all of the Panama canal
maeMnery suitable for road work—
about 85 per ceot of tbe 8112,000,*
000 worth of maohinery on baud in
[thaoanal district now—be devoted
to tba construction of this national
[system of highways.
■“The American hatiop,” said Mr.
[Conway, “is tba duly natfoa in tb*
[worM olaiming .tone civilised, tbatl
baa act a ayatem of national higb*|
of tbe northern seotion of tba UnitJ
ed States 23 cents per mile to haol
bis produce to market, .while thel
southere farmer pays 27 neats per
mile to market his produce. The
English farmer payr four eents per
mile, showing the saving aooruing
to the farmers from a national ays* I
tern of highway* built so that they
are as go:d 100 yuan from now as
they ere today.
"Tbit is only one saving. An-
nually nearly half « billion dollara
is spent on so-called good roads
work. This, for tba most part, eon*
slat# in temporary work on certain
highways wbiob will only leaf a
year or two or five years at tba most.
Thia proponed system will call for a
permanent road. bUilt at some ex*
peoee at tho start,' bnt tbe main-
tenance on it will; be story trifling
compared to tbe 8800,000,000 now!
epeot annually on the roada."

mercial club* visited by Mr. Con-
way, bai given its strung endorse-
ment of tba work of tha National
