CHRISTMAS SERMON
REV. Z T. VINCENT
\
!
j
j
j
The thoughts of the Christian world
turn today to Bethlelem. It is true
that the Cross no longer holds politi
cal sway there. The Mohammedan
crescent ,and star reign over the Holy
Land, and the Christian is there by
sufferance of the Moslem. To what
extent America is responsible for
present day conditions I cannot say.
It may be that we have neglected an
opportunity for world service—Mos
lem as well as Christian.
For a small and comparatively in
significant village, Bethlehem has had
a part in much of the history of Isra
el. There Rachel died when Benjamin
was born, and lamentations of Jacob
and his sons resounded in the stillness.
There Samuel came to anoint the rud
dy youth David to be King over all
Israel. It was David's home, and in his
age the thought of Bethlehem remain
ed a beautiful dream. It was known
throughout the land as the City of
David. From Bethlehem went Nao
mi and Ruth, to find in an alien land
a surcease from their distresses. But
as exiles sorrow still remained with
them, and to Bethlehem they return
ed, Ruth to find in marriage with Bo
az another home. And in God's gootl
time, another event made Bethlehem
an unforgettable name, for as was
prophesied in days of old, "But thou,
Bethlehem Ephratah, which art lit
tle to be among the thousands of Ju
dah, out of thee shall come forth unto
Me that is to be ruler in Israel; Whose
goings forth are from old, from ever
lasting."
"Now it came to pass in those days,
there went out a decree from Caesar
Augustus, that all the world should
be enrolled. This was the first enrol
ment made when Quirinius was gov
ernor of Syria. And all went to enrol
themselves, every one to his own city.
And Joseph also went up from Galilee,
out of the city of Nazareth, into Ju
dea, to the city of David, which is call
ed Bethlehem, because he was of the
house and family of David; to enrol
himself with Mary, who was betroth
ed to him, being great with child.
And it came to pass, while they were
there, the days were fulfilled that she
should be delivered. And she brought
forth her first born son; and she
wrapped Him in swaddling clothes,
and laid Him in a manger, because
there was no room for them in the inn)'
"And there were shepherds in the
same country abiding in the field, and
keeping watch by night over their
flock. And an angel of the Lord stood
by them, and the glory of the Lord
shone round about them; and they
were sore afraid. And the angel said
unto them, 'Be not afraid; for behold,
I bring you good tidings of great joy :
which shall be to all the people: for
there is bom to you this day in the j
city of David a Saviour, Who is Christ |
the Lord. And this is the sign unto j
you: Ye shall find a babe wrapped in j
swaddling clothes, and lying in a man- i
ger. And suddenly there was with !
the ange l_a multitude of the heaven- j
ly host praising God, and saying, i
'Glory to God in the highest.'" j
Sometimes it all seems so far away |
—-o much a part of some fantastic
thing, such as dreamers love to dream !
about. What has this hard, practical,
bread-and-butter existence to do with :
shepherds, visions and angels' songs ? ;
In near by Jerusalem, the High j
Priest and the great in the City, the ■
merchants, the slolicl city dwellers j
were wrapped in slumber, or they (
planned how to increase their wealth, !
or gloated over their profits. Yet it J
was the most illustrious nigh- in tire j
world's history since the morning j
stars sang together and the . ons of
God shouted for joy. For the angels' !
song told of the keeping of the prom- !
ises of God—told of His unforgetting j
love, and of the child Who was Em- j
manuel —"Gocl with us." In the man- i
ger there at Bethlehem, the wide won- ;
dering eyes gazing into the adoring !
ones above Him, lay the hope of the j
world.
What has a mythical Santa Claus j
—the holly and mistletoe—the Yule j
log of our forefathers—the hurrying, j
scurrying last minute wild scramble j
for a gift for some forgotten acquain- ;
tance —what can these thing- offer us,
when we forget the Babe in Bethle- j
hem? J
"Merry Chnsimas we say. v.hy ,

Mass", the celebration of the birth of j
the Son oftjod—shall it be to us who j
bear His name, only a time for mer- i

OFFICIAL HUNTER
ASKS CO-OPERATION
! The following letter from George
Nichols, predatory animal hunter for
the Biological Survey explains itself
and givea a noticeable hîht as to what
! could be accomplished if thorough co
'
operation was in evidence in this
I cinity. The destn
j and other predatory
j portant work and _____ __ ___ r __
I that arrangements for an extension of
j the work in this immediate vicinity
; may be brought about.
I December 1, 1022.
The Idaho Recorder: The Biological
survey has endeavored to put a line
through from Lemhi, a poison line ex
tending through to North fork on both
sides of the river down the Salmon,;
and we are very sorry the stockmen
cannot get together in this campaign
against the coyotes. At present our
lines run from Peterson creek to Kin
ney creek on the east side, a distance
of about 20 miles, then on the west
side from Mill creek to Baker, about
25 miles. The west side is run by Mr.
Burr and he is very successful in his
work. The east side is run by myself
and I am obtaining very good results,
but the coyotes are not very plentiful
in this section. If the stockmen of
Salmon would get into this campaign
more extensively it would mean a
much larger crop of lambs, calves and
poultry the coming season.
If the stockmen would render more
assistance I could run a line 100 miles
long very easily, with the stockmen to
place bait and furnish stopping places
for myself and horses.
The Tendoy people are doing fine in
th,s work of trying to exterminate!
the coyotes. We have stations fixed
up, horses to use and camp equip
, V" . , m I
ment, hay and other accommodations,
This is the only way we can accomp
fish much in a country of this kind,
and there is not much use in killing
the coyotes in small stetions and al
low thp ntnpr n-f tFin nnnntr ♦/-» 1
low the other sections of the county to
become coyote preserves, as the ani
mals will! drift in to the cleared sec
tions and conditions will be as bad as
they were before we do the work of
extermination.

NEW FRENCH TARIFF'THSCRIM
1 NATES AGAINST OUR COUNTRY.
Virtually all imports from the Unit
ed States will pay higher rates of
duty under the tariff which France is
to put in operation on January 1,
1923. There is a disclaimer from
French officials that this tariff is re
talitory in its effects on imports from
America, hut they admit that it will
not apply to countries with which
France has special commercial treat
ies. The United States is not one of
these countries.
In pract ce the new French tariff
will be discriminatory in respect to
American imports, it is believed, since j
the United States is the source front
which France at present obtains cer
tain foodstuffs, materials ar. l com
modities that may hereafter lie sup
plied by other countries.
