DOO Isthmian Hardware Store KOHPCKE NEUMAN friends, Extend to their West Indian Friends and patrons a Merry Christmas Messige AND Happy New Year PANAMA Branch North Ave. No. 26 To day, we wish to join with the rest of the nonpagan peoples of the world in saying MERRY CHRISTMAS. The custom is aged and universal, and is in keeping with Christian propriety. We are convinced that the days of pagan merriment have been spent, and so, we desire to associate some intelligent ideas with the merriment of which we speak at this time.
In so doing, we will try to say for what reasons we should be merry and some of the things we should know about the festival of Christmas, and which we hope we do know. We are here asserting a separate and distinct thought to each letter by which the words MERRY CHRISTMAS are spelled, and our wish for a MERRY CHRISTMAS is exprssed in association with hose thoughts:Magnanimous in that it elevates both soul and sentiment to the heights of unselfish nobility, greatness, and dignified generosity.
Expressive of a faithful and vivid representation of what Christmas stands for and of the meaning and feeling intended to be conveyed by the season.
Rational because of its agreement with facts connected to Christmas, and its compatibility with judicious and intelligent reasoning regarding the purport of the event.
Real because of existing actuality not assumed or counterfeited spurious or adultered; but a merriment that is unalloyed, intrinsine and authentic.
Yields actual payment and reward in the establishment of the productive growth and distribution of:Cheerfulness, satisfaction, and comfort for the glad tidings of a Messiah birth and gladness because of the assurance of man redemption by the coming of his Christ.
Happiness which possesses one of enjoyable pleasure for the good security established by a Saviour who is the harbinger of salvation for the human creation.
Radiance brought by His presence which makes man eternal future so brilliant, bright, and effulgentand the splendor of that which has been accomplished by the occasion which creation celebrates at this time.
Idealism which defines that the outward and visible signs of merriment are only of external perception. and that these must be submerged by the MATERIAL IDEA of the season.
Soberness that exemplifies moderation. calm and somber quietude, and a state of composure without excitement or passion.
Thankfulness for our creation, preservation, and all the blessings of human life public acknowledgment of God given provision for the promotion of spiritual success, welfare, and happiness and for the eternal legacy of virtue, piety, and Divine benevolence.
Moderation in keeping within bounds placing a restraint upon our feet from the paths of evil. reducing the intensity of our passions and the schooling of ourselves to be temperate and reasonable in all things.
Adoration of the Christ whose birth the festivities of Christmas are intended to adore to characterize our worship with profound reverence and exemplify our love and regard for Him whom we worship in high degree.
Sunshine to evaporate the mists of evil in and around us to purify us in thought, word, and deed to give us warmth in our devotion brightness in our being, and cheerfulness through life journey from innocent morning to the tempest beaten evening of our existence light to guide us on our way to the crossing of the bar, and after that, light perpetual in the Spirit world!
We wish all our comrades then, a MERRY CHRIST MAS in the only way in which our merriment can be connied as more than sounding brass and tinkling cymbal. May we be MERRY in the thought that Christ came as the Angel of our salvation, calling mankind, dead in trespasses and sin, back again into life, and whispering Immortality beyond the grave. Merry because the voice of Him who was born at this time penetrates beyond the vale, and raises to life the souls of men whom sin had slain. Yes, our MERRIMENT at Christmas time should fill us with the inspiration of Nature symphony should present before us our Angel of salvation our Prophet of Immortality the herald of our eternal Summer and the Spring of our existence in the life to come. And, if we realize all this, we can say in a genuine way, MERRY CHRISTMAS for the enjoyment of which we should thankfully exclaim. Glory in excelsis Deo!
