S. A. All Rights Reserved .-*-»*-$ Rev. and Mrs. Carlson at our 40th anniversary DEDICATION To the memory of my darling mother, who went to be with the Lord in her best years, and in my early 'teens, yet left a never-to-be-forgotten impression on my young mind and soul; to my beloved wife, who is a true, loving and faithful companion at all times; and to my sweet, de­ voted daughter Violet, now Mrs. C, J. Nyvall, who was our constant and efficient helper in the years of our musical itineraries, both in this country and in Europe, do I lovingly dedicate this little volume of memoirs, Nathaniel Carlson FOREWORD TIME is a mysterious quantity; who can tell when or where it began, or the length of its duration until NOW? Who can compute the space of its existence, or the span of its eternal future? We measure it by years, months, weeks, days, minutes and seconds, and yet a year is less than a particle of sand on the shores of time. No one can stop it in its flight. Even when Joshua commanded the sun to stand still, that event was measured in hours. The meagre years of a human life is infinitessimal in its relation to time itself.

Published October, 1909 J. 8. Cushlng Co. — Berwick & Smith Co. Norwood, Mass., U.S.A. INTRODUCTION /^AROLS are still sung in almost numberless churches, ^— ' lights glow on altars bound and wreathed with spruce and holly, trees are set up in innumerable homes, and mobs of merry children sing and dance around them, stockings take on grotesque shapes and hang gaping with treasures for early marauders on Christmas morning, and hosts of men and women keep the day in their hearts in all peace and piety. 'jThe festival, dear to the heart of sixty generations, has survived the commercial uses which it has been com- pelled to serve; the weariness of buying and selling in the vast bazaar of nations, stocked with all manner of things which stimulate the offerings of friendship; the wide- spread sense of irony which success without happiness breeds; the indifference of feeling and satiety of emotion fostered by great prosperity without that grace of culture which subdues wealth to the finer uses of life. It has sur- vived! the cynical spirit that distrusts sentiment and sneers at emotion as weaknesses which have no place in a scientific age and among men and women who know life. It has survived that preoccupation with affairs which leaves little time for feelings, and that resolute determination to make men good which leaves scant room for efforts to make them happy.
