It meansior ought to mean so much for us, but I am convinced that we have not touched the deepest depths of the thought oi Christmas yet, and I want us to R0 ilowa n strata below the ordinary thought of Ohrisirnas tonight and try to translate that thought into llfc, action, and civiliza- tion. .11 read in a Gsrmnn Scientific legaslns about three years ago the statement, that several expert German checker players have masu-red every pnaeibla move on the checker board, that is to say, you put checker board between two upsets, the that man has four pose this movin to begin with, say. he move ol' the double corners; his opponent has four slpeka to meet that move.

Of course, every man would laugh si such a woman, but not once could resist her if he stayed where he could watch the bsurdlty long enough. For that is what charms men about women, their incon» sequence, their absurdity. To be sure, they must have other qualities that wear better, but none are better as hlandish- ments. The mistake in virtuous art which the modern novelist so frequently makes comes from the fact that he does not rec- ognize thnt nmxm is Battered when he realizes that the woman he loves is a goose in comparison with l1imself,n lamb, a prettiness with which to bless and adorn life. This resulted in the importation of those formidable women into fiction who with nil their wit and resources, have added nothing to its morality. First, she was the athletic, snuggle-toothed heroine who strided into our novels about ten years ago, slapped the hero on the buck with the emanci ted air of one who P* France in North America; st1%\l that.. dmn., ure- am” whether he pmpmed tmknnd gb th nm » , br net. an me réviewsn called lm r roadway y e rw ' th. sm” hom* "nd Wm, bn" at “breezy” and she made s perfect paddock of Gction fill the average reader discov» ered that she was n fad in books and out of them, a mule-nuiured obsession of femininity' by no means as characteristic of woxnsuliood ss was the deer-eyed lumbkin heroine who figured in earlier omances.

Now Jesu~ Christ had come into the wor.d to teach men how to parry the thrusts, to check themove to guard the blow oi S.tsu.
