December 24. ... ' ???????? I CHRISTMAS Is tlis anniversary of the birth of "* I % ifuous viirim?iiiw gicavcon c*cnw the history of the world, and is com- ( memorated throughout Christendom. Birthday anniversaries are first recorded in sacred writ of I'haraoh, when Joseph was his slave; and again in the time of Job, when his sons and daughters had their feasts. The Jews, however, have not these recorded anniversaries save in the case of Herod, when John the Baptist was beheaded to gratify the caprice of a dancing maiden, the daughter of wicked Herodins. It is meet that expressions of joy should be shown on this eventful occasion. Hut how different will he the manifestations,. 'Hie children look ' forward to Christmas day with throbbing hearts, expectant eyes and gladsome thoughts. They l.avc heard of Sunta Clans, the children's friend and bestower of gifts. How eager are the little folk when the)' arise in the early mor n to see what good things this mysterious man of the polar regions has put into their hanging stockings or other receptacles. Now they see, how pleased they are! AVho would not rejoice with them? He who would not has a stony heart. Many of these little ones cannot comprehend the true significance of the the birth of the lowly Nazarene now, but as the years pass by they will recall the joys of these occasions and make them glad that, in their innocence, they had these experiences. Whilst these Christmas anniversaries should be a day of great mirth to all persons of every station and condition in life, s tfiev should be sane.tiflvil with hnmllilw and love, and all should be ready with one acclaim to shout "Joy to the wcrld, the Lord is come!" The Sunday schools here and there, throughout the land will have their Christmas t rees for the distribution of gifts to the Sunday school children, a most excellent waj of reinein bering those whose parents have not the means of bestowing the things which their hearts would prompt them to do. Hut amid all this joy and mirth and good will, it is those who will not observe this occasion in a manner to bring happiness to themselves or toothers. Unrestrained frivolity, dissipation, violence and drunkenness, soon destroys wholesome mirth and stains the honor due the Son of Man. Now, a merry Chrutmas to one and to all! May you have many happy returns thtrof and with each successive return increased joy and b'essing. TWO BOYS, AND AN OI?POItTU-N IT V. There is no more interesting object in the world than a bright, gentlemanly, polite, industrious boy. Tluse qualities are the harbingers of a useful. successful and honored manhood. The hoy who possesses them or who 1 strives arnest ly and honestly to cultivate them is worthy of the respect and reverence of the moat honored person in t lie land. We feel like dolling our hat every tune we meet a jolly, laughing boy i w hi his I li e marks of honesty, truth-. fulness and manliness stamped upon * lus countenance . Tuese qualities coin- ' * ( hilled with energy, push anil polite- j mane in?* i><?y l lie prule of his ?omtniinily. lie will always be in demand; hi* pay mat >s will honor him, th* tiu-iuess man will he on the looki ? ot for li m; everybody will love him. He will have lots of f 11 and pleasure; i In- w ill mii" ecd n his undertakings: he I will lie useful to society : he will make a manly man. Let's look for a moment at thin boy's opposite. We a II know i In* "Smart Alex" when we see him, and we kli >w just how nilieh lie is worth to himself and j to the oommoiiity. lie has a swaggering a>r abouth'lii that reeks with the odors of cigarettes, profanity, idle- ; :ioss,disrespect and inipolilenes . lie ! I is inanish? not manly?and he has the ' d'strust and contemnt of all people, j v lie on it easily become asocial and a j t business outcast. The business man is ( nlraid to trust him and he is no: want | rd where culture and reliueiiient ex- f ists. .fudged by every standard he is a I failure as a hoy and in ninety-five I * cases out of every one hundred lie will j " lie a failure as a man. "Ye imii.nit gather grapes of thorns."' ti The parent is almost wholly responsi- n l.l- f.. - - " .iic mi me hiii<1 01 itoy lus or her son j ^ is. Ipoil you parents of Hateshorg j ? rests the responsibility of what kind of w boy yjii give to society. His success ns a hoy anil his after success as a man depends upon you. Don't let him lie- j, lieve that you consider him a prodigy, t> or unusually sm irt; lie will find that w out all too soon. ''Idleness and loaf- j(| ing is the Devil's workshop." 'i he (| boy is in a plastic state, lie is material m that his .Satanic majesty can handle with great ease and readiness. Keep jj your hoy busy. IT he hangs around hi the street corners and public places, he K is sure to become a receptacle for those things that degrade and vitiate boyhood. lie is too tender ami pliable ; tic *o beer me the associates of hardened 'ai and debauched men. Keep him ofT the sj '.reels by entertaining ami amusing ur Iii^^Iioiiic. Make his 1^^^natural du jolly und ie will become the pride and comfort if your ol J ape. The Christmas tide will present wonlerful opportunities to you parents for i caching your boys politeness, gene- I 'unity, how to amuse one's self in u larmless manner. The opportunities mproved will repay you in the success i ml character of your boy; negUcted, .hey will repay you in heartaches. We have no patience with a chronic ticker or grumbler, but there coine times when a littie honest kicking |u is not only excusable, but it may remit in a public good. Such kicking ought to be Indulged. Of late the To people of Batesburg have been considerably inconvenienced bv the ir regularity and lateness of their mail ( from ColumbU. For a number of | Jays the'news papers printed ia Colum- ( bia have been arriving from fifteen to *w eighteen hours late. This is an absurd state of atTairs when we take into consideration the fact that Columbia w is only thirty-two miles distant and J there are usually one or two extra trains passing between that point and p Augusta. We do not know where the 111 blame lies, but it does seem that an extra man should be put on the mail service lu order to insure the arrival ^ of the mails at the proper time at the n' stations between Columbia and Augusta. It is not only a hardship but an injustice to delay all of our local and gstute mail from ten to twenty ^ hours on account of the lateness of the Northern mails. We don't mean to intimate that our couiteous and efficient postmaster is in any way responsible for the present state of affairs, but simply throw 01 out the suggestion that an ai official report from him to the postofllce authorities might result in reli eving the present situation. The Advocate feels grateful for the t( kindness and consideration which the C people of this section have shown in * throughout the year. It has been our s constant purpose and desire to issue a ai paper that would command the re- *2spect of the people. We have not been ^ "wisliawashy" or political,but on every question have boldly declared our position. Not courting the favor of any p man, or set of men. The people have I Si demonstrated their appreciation, and I si it encourages us to greater endeavor for the coming year. There will lie C( come changes in the Advocate, in the ) t near future, we trust for the best, and ! t? weassureour readers that we will ii-mi i 01 ?very energy to make the paper more readable. During the year our present force has been falthfifi, and we show our appreciation of their services by T gi.ing them a rest, consequently, no j) paper will be issued next week. The ;8 compositor and the Devil will spend their time in the "burg," while the on a turkey hunt. With a heart full of love, we wish the merchant and t clerk, who day in and day or.t stand "J behind the counter and with courtesy si wait on the trade -a merry Xmas and ,V, a happy New Year! The farmer, who feeds and clothes the world?a merry tr Xmas and a Happy New Year!
