It is absolutely impossible for any
human being to live a neutral life
In this world. One must either add
to the prosperity and progress of So
ciety by the production of some USE
full substance or quality or lessen the
value Of the production OF others by
wastefulness. There will always be
some wasters, although, fortunately
for the general good, the number is
comparatively small. The women
MASTERS in America occupy the unique
position of excelling the women Of
every other nation in extravaganza
and wastefulness. To a large degree
this wastefulness is developed by the
amount Of leisure time at their dis
posal. The mischief done by idle
hands is never better typified than in
the wastefulness Of certain type of
American woman. It has assumed
such proportions as to affect CONNER
cial prosperity in some localities and
its prevalence among women of mod
crate means is more alarming than
among those Of wealth.

PEACE ON EARTH AND THE
HOLIDAY RUSH,

~ -iOFNt tASOiFE
1t may seem trite to keep on talk
ing about the evils of the holiday
rush. But when a social practice be
comes intrenched in such a way
as to cause human suffering and
economic waste there is satisfaction
in hammering away on a theme that
is old and yet always vital.
The Christmas gift habit was start
ed as a manifestation of the spirit
OF the Prince of Peace. Christmas
is the day Of Peace on earth, good
viii to men" It signifies the laying
aside of all cruelties and harsh
nesses, the prevalence of the spirit
of brotherhood, of kindness, of con
sideration for the needs and rights
OF others.
Yet this so-called Christian world
continues year after year to practice
certain habits in the buying and
sending of gifts, that impose the
most nerve wrecking toll on hun
dreds of thousands of people.
For a week previous to this holiday
of JOY and good cheer, the life of
postal clerks, mail carriers, shop
girls, in all large towns and cities,
is one of drive, hurry, worry, scurry,
hours, hasty feeding, lack of sleep.
1t leaves them physically and ner-
yOusly depressed.
The experience is dreaded for
weeks, and is nightmare to many
persons of sensitive temperament
and fraiI physique.
And yet knowing all this, realizing
loss of patience and temper, late
it perfectly, people still keep on yea
after year buying mess of gifts the
week before the holiday. and clogging
the mails and expresses with this
futile accumulation of packages. 1t
is n queer reflection on the common
sense, the human sympathy of the
American people, and suggests a
great big wide yellow streak of self
ishness running through the national
temperament.

The interest Of your neighbor is for
