‘Tis the night before Christmas and from the neighboring church the grand hymn, “Tis the Birthday of the King." comes up from the rehearsing choir and reaches the office of The Times iwith its sacred melody. There is no news tonight, for the story of the people today began while shepherds watched their flocks by night and the angelic chorus of “ Peace on Earth, Good Will to Men" made music for the years, and happily for us, both rest tonight beyond the inspiration of men, too pure for the touch of a word and too sacredly sweet for the point of a pen.
