Christmas Spirit on Week Days

The Holland people in Lynden
and nearby districts have raised
considerable sum to send to Belgium
and are considering adding stlil
more to their gift.
They are taking their insp1rat-
ion from the home of their ancestors
Holland, which. in spite of the ire
mendous expense it is under to
keep up it's army to resist a
possible invasion nevertheless
is aiding thousands of Belgian rel
ugees who have crossed to Dutch
territory.
1t is estimated that at least
million Belgians. 100000 OF them
without funds have fled to Holland.
To help them is the burden Holland
has shouldered. And she chooses
to bear it alone. because when an
American society offered to contrib
ute money to help care for these
refugees. Holland refused on the
grounds that acceptance of assls-
lance would be derogratory to the
national honor.
Such spirit. both abroad, and at
home, is worthy of the mghest
praise.
