THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: MONDAY, LEGENDS OF THE NATIVITY Rubject of Discourse of Rev, N. M. Mann at Unity Oharoh, DRAWS LINE BETWEEN REAL AND UNREAL Says Polnts of Historie Reality Do Not Belong to Christmas, But it is Time for Romance and Gen- erous Sentiment. As suiting to the time, Rev. Newton M Mann took ae his text yesterday morning the stories told in the gospels of the birth of Christ “To begin with" sald the preacher, “it fs notable that anything should be sald in these stories of the subject’s birth Blographers usually content themselves with merely giving the date. But the date o this caso is preclsely what the gospel writers have neglected to give. They do not tell us the day or the month, or ev the year of Jesus' birth, nor do they con- neet it with any public event by which the date can be satisfactorily determined. This 1s more remarkable from the fact that two of them profess to give us His genealogy through forty-two generations. The birth- dgy of Christ was fixed In the sixth cen- tury by the authority of the Monk Diony- sivs Exiguns. In the year he appears to have made & considerable error; as to the day, he was doubtless guided by the cus- toms of the Roman church to celebrate Christmas on December 25, chief of the Roman holidays from time immemorial. “The authors of tho second and fourth goapels, knowing nothing of the date, nat- urally pass over the whole matter and in. troduce Jesus to us on the eve of His en- trance upon His public work. The other two gospels have each their bits of curious story in reference fo the nativity. In Luke we bave the highly wrought picture of the angel announcing to the shepherds the birth of Jesus. . Reglon of Unreality. ““A universal literary canon of judgment remands any representation in which an- gels play a part to the region of unreality, the land of visions and dreams. Unhap- plly the absurd method in vogue In inter- preting scripture rules this canon out, and the question is forced point blank on this and other such stories: Are they true as statements of fact? For my part I hardly know how patiently to meet so stupid a proceeding. I have the same feeling as if one should press me to say whether I be- Meve the story of the Cyclops in the | ‘Odyssey’ Both are fine as poetieal con- ceptions, representing notions of the uni- verse current in their day, but not to be taken historically any more in the one caso than In the other. “One thing we notice about all these stories of the nativity: They imply that Jesus in the helplessness of infancy was promptly recognized by'shepherds and wise men, prophets and kings as the long- looked-for Messiah. But after this for | more than thirty years nobody suspects him | of any such distinction. Now if the shep- hords really saw the angel host; heard their message and their song; if Jerusa- | lem was actually stirred up by the arrival | of the wise men from Persia under con- | duct of a star which accommodatingly guided them to a certain house in Bethle- hem; if the evidences of the appearances of the Messiah were so conclusive that the government became alarmed and resorted to_extreme measures to destroy Him—it Is certainly inexplicable that the whole mat- ter should have been directly forgotten and the public left wholly unprepared for the announcement of His Messiahship thirty- five years or so afterward. Admitting the possibility of such marvels, how could Jesun Himself or His father's family or snybody conmected with Him been fn doubt of His mission? Wearisome Representation. “Much will be sald today and through the week In the churches about us touch- Ing upon the stories I have dwelt upon, but I fear in‘none of them will the point I am making be brought out. The weari- some repregentation will be made agaln that the tales of the nativity are to be | taken as reporting actual matters of fact. And often as this Is said Ideas are | emptied of their distinttions, the real and | fantastic are confounded and superistition | takes a fresh hold of human souls. The | distinction between the rcal and the im- aginary is radical and ordinarily apparent. The poet does not have to make a running commentary on his verses, saying in the margin ‘Here I am spehking figuratively,’ ‘Here I am telling the literal truth.' Su- perstition 18 the name given to this species of mental unsoundness, Curiously enough, superstition affects us only as to our own religlon. We can read storles told by the Greek (or the Bgyptian about their gods without being In the slightest danger of mistaking them for facts, but ne people seem to have been able to read their own religlous books without falling into that eryor. . “Think of the wealth of imagery, of ro- mance, of generous sentiment that clusters about Christmas. It is the season of good | feeling, of poetic hopes and dreams. Points of historic reality do not belong to it, but it owns the legend to the gullding star and of the singing angels, of the wondering virgin and the miraculous child. These take us up into dreamland and disclose to us scer of which we are not likely to 866 too much of {n this matter-of-fact age of ours." ABOUT CHILDREN'S ELEVATION. Subject of Wev. Clasel at Hanscem 'k Metheodist, “But Jesus called them unto Him and said, ‘Buffer little children to come unto Me, and forbld them not, for of such is the kingdom of God,' " Luke xvili, 15, was the toxt chosen by Rev. Clyde C. Clssel of Hanscom Park church for his morning ser- mon. v At this season of the year, he sald, all paths of reflection lead back to Bethlehem, and following any of those paths would | disclose the fruit of the seed sown by Jesus. Thus, by following the path of woman's elevation it is poscible to trace her advancement from a condition of s very to her present high station in the world. In the same manner also could be traced the improvement of man's condition and development, But on this occasion he spoke particu- larly of the ation of childhood in- spired by the teachings of the Savior. Paganiem, Rev. Cissel said, hadl no place Zor childhood or for the child, and goin back into pagan history it could readily be' found that even the leading nations showed no consideration for thelr children or the cultivation and teaching of their children. To the ancient Greeks it was enough that a boy should grow up to be a great warrior, and ‘Xenophon, when fin- formed that his son had been killed in Dattle, said that he bad mot asked im. | mottality for the boy, or even a long life, but that he should be & brave soldier and that he had been. The Spartan mothers of those times whose children were not sound of limb or were otherwise weakly would submit them to the elders, and if it was the judgment | would pass | his ‘ously. He their mothers into the destroying arms of the 1dol Moloch, .or thrown into the Ganges, and contreated the corditions which | prompted and fostered such things with | hose of the present day. Jesus Christ, he 1d, was the greatest of all revolutionists, and It He bad lived in the present day would perhaps have been called an an- archist, for He came not as the precedent rabbis and teachers, accepting religious conditions as they found them, but he at- tacked some of those conditions which the Pharisees held most sacred. In closing the sermon Rev, Of made an earnest appeal to his hearers to 8o teach and guide their children that their mes- sages, written upon the hearts of the chil- dren, should live forever and be worthy to endure. RELATES STORY OF CHRIST, Rev. Tinda Sermon at Trinity Methodist Episcopal Churech. Rev. D. K. Tindall at Trinity Methodist church last evening sald “To a young betrothed virgin, whose sweet name was Mary, in the despised town of Nazareth, the angel Gabriel appeared and told her she was to become the mother of Jesus, who should be begotten by the Holy Ghost. In a short time Mary visited her coustn Elizabeth in Judes, near Jeru- calem, who also was to become the mother of a strange and wonderful personality, John the Baptist. That memorable visit was the occasion of the song of the Mag- nificat “Returning to her home st Nazareth, Mary and her espoused husband, Joseph, came down to Bethlehem, being the ‘house and lineage of Duvid,’ to pay their taxes, according to the decree of Caesar Augustus. The little city being greatly crowded, Mary and Joseph were obliged to spend the night in a stable, or ox's stall. In the manger of this place that night Jesus w born in the city of David. Joseph and Mary took the child to Jeru- salem and presented him to the Lord in the temple, when old Simeon and Anna €0 greatly rejoiced that they had lived to see that day. They then returned to Beth- lehem, where in & short time they were visited by the wise men, whose gifts of gold came just at the right time to aid the holy famlly in their flight into Egypt to escape the blood-thirsty hafid of Herod ‘God moves in mysterious ways His won- ders to perform.’ Hearing of the death of Herod, Joseph and Mary took the child and returned from Egypt, but, learning that Archelaus ruled in old Herod's stead, they turned aside to Nazareth and did not g0 back to Bethlehem, as they perhaps in- tended to do. “At the age of 12, with His mother and Joseph, Jesus made his first visit to Jerusalem on a passover occasion. This was a trip of thrilling interest to the young boy. Think of what His eyes would wee enroute! As He dropped down from His High, mountain city home He would enter the great valley of Esdradon, the ‘battlefield of nmations;’ He would see the river Kishon, where were destroyed 8o many prophets of Baal, and also Mount | Carmel, where Elifah won hlg immortal victory over the same wicked men; He near Jezred, where wicked ezebel was slain and eaten by the dogs, s had been prophesied. Beautiful Gilboa, on whose summit Saul gnd Jonathan were slain, and old Samarfa, with all its ter- races and natural beauty would rise be- fore His wondering eyes; Dothan, from which hill Joseph was eold into Egypt by cruel brethren, and Shechem, with Mounts Gerigine and Ebol—one of the love- lest spots of earth—would be fn full view. | He would see Jacob's well, where He was soon to open up His kingdom in Samaria through a woman; Shiloh, famous for hav- ing been the dwelling place of the Ark of God for 300 years and the home of Eli and Samuel; Bethel, where Jacob in a dream w & ladder which connected earth and heaven, a type of the atonement of Christ and the reconciliation of man with God. Then would rise before Jesus the old hi toric and sacred Jerusalem, with its Moly temple, the city so full of meaning to every Jew. It was during this trip Jesus was missed by His parents and when found was in the temple, astonishimg the learned doctors with His questions and answers of wisdom. “Back at Nazareth we hear no more of Jesug until He was 30 years of age, the | time at which the High Priest entered upon the duties of His sacred office. Here Jesus spent eighteen sflent y: He was at work in the carpenter's shop and attend- ing school,and service in the synagogus growing in stature and increasing in wi dom. Baptised of John at the Jordan, He enters upon a serles of temptations, through which He passed most victori- enters His public ministry, spending much time in Judea, some time in Samaria, but most in Galilee, teaching, preaching and working miracles. He lived the only perfect life of this world. Passing through the bloody sweat of Gethsemane and the dgonies of Calvary, dying for the lives of the people, He rose from the dead and ascended triumphantly to glory. Shall we not by His help make our lives also triumphant and sublime Goed P Owen. Good opening for & newspaper or mags sine solicitor. Permanent position for & competent man.

SACRED CANTATA AT FIRST METHODIST Draws & Crowd Greater Than the Edi- fice Can Accommodate—M: Offerings at Some Other urch teal The birth of the Babe of Bethlehem was the inspiration of mearly every church choir and congregation n Omaha, as else- where, yeaterday and contributed the theme of many a story sweetly told. The solo- ists of all churches were prepared with extraordinary offerings and their support | had been drilled, apparently, with even | more care than that which usually pre- cedes the Christmas Sunday. The most pretentious of the offerings was that at the First Methodist church, where antata, “The Coming of the was sung In the evening. As for the cantata ftself, it will be quite enough | to say that It is among the very best of Dudley Buck's marvelous pleces of descrip- | tive music writing. It tells more Dlllnll‘ than could printed description the senti- | ments suppoged to have surrounded and an- ticipated the event of the manger. Choirs Distinguish Themselves. In the rendition given it last night the soloists met expectations and the choirs more l‘han met them. If any one feature is to be praised more than another it must be the delicate and subtle blending that made possible such rich and rounded har- mony as marked the contributions of these choirs, men's and women's alike. The church was so crowded from the pul- pit to the stairs back of the balcony that standing room wi at an absolute pre- mium, hundreds being turned away, and Rev. B. Combie Smith, pastor of the church, fmproved the opportunity to em- phasize what the Christ’s birth meant and still means to the Christian world, saying by way of introduction of the cantata t needed a chorus of the angel volces to pro- olaim to the world the birth of the true King, and tonight we seize upon the echo of that refrain to proclaim it anew.” Cantata in Det: The cantata opened with Mr. organ solo, “Noel,” itself suggestive . of the natal event. Mrs. Kelly, soprano, sang “The Prophecy.” The full choir and Mrs. Kelly and Mrs. Ely, contralto, sang “The Advent.”” ‘The Annunciation” w solos by Miss McCabe, alto, and Mr. Creary, tenor. The male choir traced “The Caravan of the Magl” across the desert. Of the events on “The Plains of Bethle: hem' account was given by the women't choir, Mr. McCreary and the full choir. “The Shepherds’ Departure” was an elab- orate number, requiring bass choir, male choir, mezzo-soprano choir and full choir. “The Virgin's Lulaby,” a particularly rich rumber, was sung by Mrs. Ely. Mr. Stein, basso, and the male cholr told of jealous King Herod, his order to slaughter the in- fants, and of the Magl. ‘“The Adoration” was sung by Mrs. Kelly, a semi-choir and the full choir. The blending and the har- | mony were nowhere more perfect than in thi “‘Adeste Fideles” was the finale. To the last note the great crowd remained and the attention given was a very pretty Kelly's | was splendidly played by W mented upon were Miss Helen Hnnlhnda\ solo, “Light of the Better Morning,~' by Dudley Buck, and another of Buck's, “'Hark Hark, My Soul,” as sung by Miss Hoagland Mrs. Edwards, Mr. Wilbur and Mr. Aiteh ison.

The congregation of the First Christian church, holding ‘services at 1816 Harney street, was given a program in the morn- ing In which the instrumentalists figured rather more conspicuously than did the vocalists. Mr. Bronson Shadduck played as violin solo the Intermezzo from Mas- cagnl's “Cavalleria Rusticahs,” with Herr Gahm accompanying him on the 'cello, and Iater rendening a 'cello solo. In the even- ing, Mr. Ed F. Pickering sang “The Dream of Bethlehem.” The congregation particl- pated in the program to the extent of a number of hymns. At the Westminster Presbyterfan church fn the morning Mrs. Drake carried \the soprano leads and Mr. E.\E. Gray sang “Nazareth,” which was to have been given in the evening. As a pleasing and some; what ncvel feature the cholr chanted the “Holy, Holy, Holy,” in the vestry befors entering the loft. Miss Lyman contributed pleasingly on the organ, The morning service at the First Bap- tist was accompanied by a musical pro- gram upon which many compliments were passed, the most praised number being the anthem, Neidlinger's “Birthday of a King," sung by Mrs. W. W. Sherman, Mrs, George Van Orman, Mr. Leon Felgar and Mr. A. Lansing. Mrs. Van Orman was substituting for Mrs. Hitcheock, the regular leader, who 1s {ll.
