Opis: St. Andrew's College Review, Christmas 1910 (Classic Reprint) - College St. Andrew's

Excerpt from St. Andrew's College Review, Christmas 1910

Christmas! The talismanic word that transforms what is dull and commonplace into something radiantly beautiful and full of meaning! The eternal message of Peace and Good-will comes ringing down the ages as sweet and full of hope as on the dawn of the first Christmas morning. Petty feuds are put aside, bitterness and rancor, jealousy and hatred seem for the time at least to be eclipsed by the spirit of love and generosity that is abroad in the land. The small boy's rhyme sounds like sweetest poetry to ears awaiting the sound of train whistles and conductors' calls.

"No more Latin, no more French -
No more sitting on a hard board bench!"

What lines of an immortal Browning or a despised Virgil can equal this famous classic There is music in every foot of each verse, and to many eager cars it is the music of "Home, Sweet Home." To all those whose steps are speeding in the direction of "sweet home," and to all whose thoughts only are bearing them closer to a charmed circle, where their presence will be sadly missed, the Review extends heartiest greetings and best wishes for a truly happy vacation. It is the gladdest time of the whole year for most of us, but to a great many it is, unfortunately, the saddest. It is now that the empty chair seems most vacant, the hushed voice most still, and to all who feel anew at this time the sorrow of bereavement, the sense of eternal loss, we wish the deeper happiness that comes from a true realization of what the season really brings to all - "Peace on Earth, Good-will towards Men."
