A Christmas Greeting. * -1 4 When this issue of Thk Kkcoki> reaches its readers the\ will be in the midst of the pleasures and festivities of the me rv yule-tide?that period of the year looked forward to by the children with bright anticipation. the pleasure of which is shared in no small measure by children of a larger growth. It is the season when Santa Clans is abroad uith his reindeer and tinkling sleigh-bells, all of which brings joy to the heart of the little folks; and those who are older find equal pleasure in the exchangQ of tokens of love and! ' affection. But in the midst of the joys of Christmas we shonll ever bear in mind the true significance of the j day we celebrate. On this day nearly j 2000 year? a<ro came to earth for the ! redemption of mankind the only be- J gotten son of the Father, a priceless gift to humanity: and though an interval of centuries lias elapsed this j day to the earnest and believing christain will ever be one of praise and rejoicing and of "peace and good will toward men." Throughout Ilis earthly career the dominating influence of Christ vtA8 love and charity, and it is bes 4 fitting that, especially on the day of His birth, we should in our relations with one another follow the example he has le*t us. /! It ie not the expensive and elaborate c,ift that is most worthy of appreciation. Given in a spirit I of love and esteem the merest trifle, > becomes invested with a value far greater than the costliest present that represents nothing beyond its intrinsic value. Love is after all the true philosopher's stone, and like a fairy's wand it transforms all 3 I it touches into something rare and j valuable and beautiful. a The Kecoed wishes its readers, all, a Christmas full of kind ^HHthcughts and deeds, blessed with the happiness of mingling with ^^^friencls and relatives in the full ^ ^Knjoymen'. health and good cheer. A. a *r ? >ngy ampir>j#n -J w "Peace on earth aiul good will to-j ward men" does not seem to apply to Viuezuela just at thi* time. Louisiana has a woman who gave birth to live children within twelve months. This "full hand" consists of a set df triplets and a pair ofj twins, all said to Ik- line, healthy children. After a brief session on Satuiday? just long enough to take final action on a bill to defray the expenses ofj the coal strike commission-- congress adjourned till Monday, Janu.iry5, 1903. Poor, over worked statesmen! They need a test. ?????? ! President Roosevelt Juts been asked j by the Allied Powers to act as arbitrator in the Venezulai. etnbroglio. It goes without saving that | Roosevelt will accept this or any job that will afford him the opportunity of posing before the public. A telegraphic despatch from South Bend, Ind., announces that the negroes are leaving the city on account of the feeling against them.! 1 Clubs and saloons conducted by I negroes have been closed and thev I say they can not get food at the I irestaurants, although they have the! money to pay for it. And this is in ; I mining' 'A Pastor's Farrwell. Editor County Record:? Pieane allow me space in The Record for a lot I er of adieu to friends of Williamsburg. And first. I desire to extend the <jratitude of me and mine to the citizenship of Rome circuit, l o say that we have been kindly received j and well-cared for is indeed a mild expression. Many of the| laces shall linger with us through I the years as they come and go. j Nothing can erase the happy impressions ot men ami women who are kind and good and noble and true. Such we have found and they have sent streams of everlasting sunshine into our souls We commend you one and all to the rare of the succeeding past* r. j who. in truth, is tlie ''Wav" and. I beiiifr the way, shall gently lead you therein. We leave a pleasant place with loud and pleasant reminiscences, and beseech the Giver of all good to be your full joy and peace and consolation. In the second place, allow me spare to say a word touching I lie anticipated school. Hy all means, friends, build the high school at I Union. This is what should be ddne. A good school for Rome 'community is just what is needed! 1*111 your money and brain toj work in this direction ami thei natural result will be education at home. Nothing can do more lor your children than a first class school with first class teachers. J. A. GKAIIAM, Rome, 8. <\ H SAVED AT GRAVE'S BRINK.
