Thouj'h without some of the ac cessories that give n peculiar spice of enjoyment to the festival in other climes, Hawaii yet observes Christ ma, religiously anil socially, with an enthusiasm and intensity not fall ing short of the coi)nt,rics where the day owns its history. This is the season of peace and goodwill, when human effort ought to echo the an gello promise, sounded with heaven ly music in the eaft of the shepherds ou Bethlehem's plains, nearly two thousand years ago. While we have to deplore that our race have not taken the message more to heart, in all the intervening centuries but continued to hurt and destroy one another in all the holy mount of divine benediction, as individuals we ought to make our Christmas a pro mise of belter things toward each Mice-ceding year, thus fulfilling the prophecy of the heavenly host in our own lives. It is our best wish for the readers of the Uui.i.ktix that they may make the spirit of this festival the controlling power f their conduct until happily the return of the joyous tide in 1890 may he gladly hailed as the opportunity of renew ing their pledges of true fraternity with their fellow-men. Let the golden rule, that epitome of all that Christmas brings to remembrance, be observed in all the private and public relations of life, and the community whose members do so will be a happy one- indeed. On this the eve of the day to be celebrated, the Uullktix wishes all its patrons and friends a merry Christmas and many happy returns of the season. Nomination of Nobles.
