CHILD HAILED AS REMEEMER FOR MANKIND Divine Birth Claimed for Baby Born ini Judea (The following account of the birth of Christ, written in news paper style, has been going the rounds of newspapers for many years, but we do not believe it has ever appeared here.—Ed. BETHLEHEM, Dec. 25—Hailed as the infant Son of God and the prom ised Redeemer, a child named Jesus was bom here last night in a rude stable, his coming accompanied by a bright new star in the sky and pro claimed by angels as the glorious fulfillment of an ancient prophecy. First to learn of the event, which may change the religious beliefs of the entire world, were Judean shep herds tending their flocks near the stable where today the child lies cradled' in a manger and guarded by his mother, Mary, and her spouse, Joseph. Angels Reported. “Fear not,” the shepherds report ed an angel as saying, “for beholod I bring you tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. For unto you is bom this day in the City of David, a Savior, which is Christ the Lord,” As the Angel directed them to ward the stable, they said, a multi tude of heavenly spirits suddenly ap- pared singing, “Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace and good will toward men!” The shepherds found the child wrapped in swaddling cloths and knelt beside him, praising God. Then they left to make known that the words of the prophets had come to pass. Promise Made. According to Hebrew belief, the promise of a Redeemer was first made to Adam and has been re newed to mankind through utter ances of patriarchs and prophets. It was recalled today that the Pro phet Michaeas had predicted the Re deemer would be horn in Bethlehem, but would be known as a Nazarene. It was also recalled that the Pro phet Isaias, declared: “God Himself will come and will save you. Then shall the eyes of the blind be open ed and the ears of the deaf shall be unstopped. Then shall the lame man leap as a hart, and the tongue of the dumb shall be free.” Wonder-Worker? This was interpreted today to mean that the newborn child, if he be truly the Redeemer, shall be come famous as a wonler-worker with the power to suspend natural laws. (Priests and scribes of this city are wondering if the birth of Christ signifies the end of the old dispensa tion and the beginning of a new. They are asking: “If this be the Redeemer, why was he bom in a cowshed? If he be a king, where is his army?” They discounted reports of the shepherds actually having seen heavenly angels. Many, however, believe that the ancient prophecy has come to pass. They are hoping the Child will be come a powsrful king to throw off the oppressive yoke of the Roman conquerors, Royal Background. While the Child’s mother is the daughter of humble folk, it was pointed out that her husband is de scended fro mthe psalmist, King Da vid. Nine months ago, Mary recalled today, an angel anpeared to her in the quietness of her chamber, sa luting her with the words. “Hail, full of grace, the Lord is with thee, blessed art thou among women.” She was told, she said, that she should conceive a son to he called Jesus. To her question, “How shall this be, seeing I know not a man?” the an "el, she declared, replied. “The Holy Spirit shall come upon thee and the power of the Highest shall overshodaw thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be bom of thee shall be called the Son of God.” No Lodging. When her time was nearly come. Governor Cyrenius of Syria ordered all inhabitants to be enrolled in Bethlehem under the new taxation plan inaugurated by Caesar Augus tus. So Mary and Joseph left their home in Nazareth, Galilee, but upon arriving in Bethlehem could find no lodging at the inn, nor at any house. Hence a stable became the birth place of the Christ child. The ass and' the ox and the calf— whose images have been worshipped in earlier times—were there in the stable. And, so today in Bethlehem a child was bom. Shepherds brought him a lamb, and to Mary gave milk and cheese. Time will tell whether her issue is to be another false pro phet or the promised “Son of God, of whose kingdom there shall be no “NURSE EDITH CAVELL” AT OPERA HOUSE “Nurse Edit!)
