t regglo. I have seen only copies of

this picture, and small prints, but the thought of the artist is clear even in the smallest print. The “Light of the World" is literally the iight or this Nativity seene; it ' radiates from Him and illuminates the entire foreground of the pic- ture. so d-elieetely is it graded-so subtly blended with the shadows that darkness lives and has form. it touches first, and seems to cares-1 the tender loving face of the ad- oring mother, and draws her shad- owy form from the other shadows into relief and prominence. Then the reverent face of Joseph is re- vealed, and in the background are seen the others usually associated with Nativity pictures. | Here is Christmas shown in its

truest, highest meaning, and un- fortunately we are slipping away' from all that this artist would, imply. The Child whom Correggio- made the source of light should be the source of Joy; 5 Joy that over- flowing from 'the homes of earth' should reach into its shadowy

places and carry the message of' Divine Cheer. For this joy is thee heritage of all mankind' mighty

heirs to the gladness that radiates

from the manger of Bethlehem. |

i True, them are those who. even|

as Herod, would destroy the spiri- tuality of christmas, and there are inns where He may not ent/er; but_ there are still shepherds dwell'lng| in high places whose hearts re- spond to that old, old song, and

are still wise men who follow His,

star and adore Him. TheY|

the wise men and thei shepherds, grasp the true sig-_ nificance oi' Christmas, but as there are high lights and graduated| shadows in Corregg'lo’s picture, this' festival has greater or less mean- ing for each one of us.

Even if we lose sight of its sacred

origin for awhile, we are swept _by_ limrpulses that we are often at a| loss to understand; like the oidi

woman of the nursery rhyme “we're _ not ourselves at all.” Our usual “cussedncss" seems io be less cvi-1 dent. at this season, and we'i-e more _inclined to “ict bygones be ‘bygon-_ es." We are imbued with ii spirit of giving and forgiving. We grow tolerant of the other fellows point ci view, and aware of the need of others. We feel an exhllaration-a buoyancy that cannot be accounted for by colored lights and green dc- coratlcn. Such things may help. undoubtedly they do help to glad- den the atmosphere of Jhrlstmas but wh-:re there are no gay trap- pings, ln remote, out-or-the-world places, unaccountable generous im- pulses sway the hearts of thous- ands at this season. `

Hciv awful it would be l-E there

were "no open season" for forgiv-

_souls would grow callused, and liv- ,ing more difficult. There is B, heal- 'ing in happiness, especially the hap-

`piness that is bom of unselflshness _ and generosity. Experience has' SECURITY

"I shouldn’t think you'd ever loo glum if you know`d baiitr Jesus bein' born,” said a poor little child ln the hospital who heard, for the first time _one Christmas the story of Jesus coming into the world to save us all. Her eyes sparkled with a new radiance, and her _heart was so lrappy B-S she lay upon her little cot and told out her little gospel, "I shouldn't think you'd ever look glum if you know'd bout Jesus bein' born." The everlasting miracle of Christmas is its gladness. It is world-contagious. Think of ltl The great nations oi the oeeident thril- led with a mystic gladness-because

And the marvel of it is the ever-

spreading joy. Like a sea of glory it spreads from pole to pole. Year after year it comes upon the night of this sad world with the glory of the Lord, and as we hear the angel voice: “Behold I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. For. unto you is born this day a Saviour,” there echoes round the world in ever-widening circles the glad refrain: “Unto us a Child is born; unto us a Son is given." and love pours itself out without stint for the cheerless and the Cnristlew, the unhappy and the unemployed in this wintry world. Myriads of myriads of voices utter words of cheer. Myriads of faces glisten with Christmas merriment. Myriads of hand clasp kindly hands in friendships grasp, and myriads of feet go forth on errands of mercy, pity and hope.
