Therefore, every heart was not made joyous, gleeful, happy and bright by Monday eve’s distri- bution in the temples of the Most High, and the subsequent visit of the mythical mid-night philanthropist. But this is Christmas, holiday time, and ourthoughts and expres- sions, we suppose, should be bright and sparkling and not dismal and piteous in lamenting for what could not be otherwise. Each _ should make the most of his or her privilege and possessions and not trouble the busy world with tales of inequality and unhappy conditions. The ling- ering footsteps of the old year will soon be superseded by the active, youthful tramp of the new, and the fleeting moments must be consumed by the welcoming serenade in gol- den chariots, and nat given ovér to adversions on the disagreeable, cheerless side of the Christmas time.
