CHRISTMAS GIVING

The problem of Christmas giving is
never an easy one for the man with
the Christmas spirit and limited poe
textbook to solve. It's going to be
harder of solution this year than ever
before in the memory of any Of us.
The appeal from Belgium alone will
give pause to many that heretofore
have been wont to think only of their
own-and Belgium, though "the most
distressful' of countries is but part
of vast territory in which Christ
mas, without some thought and cheer
on the part of others more happily
situated, will but add mockery to the
train Of sorrows that has followed
on wars track.
The Times has no thought or wish
to check any generous impulse that
seeks to soften Christmas for Eu
ropes countless sufferers, but it
should not be forgot that December
%, 1914, is not going to be the
merriest of Christmases for folks
that need relieving. There are thous-
ands of men and wonme out of work,
to whom a revived trade at CHRIS
mas time might mean a brief en-
ployment. There are hundreds of
children whose fathers have lost
their jobs to whom the sight of an
empty stocking on Christmas morn
ing will mean heartache. There are
the merchants to be considered, to
whom increased sales at Christmas
might mean the lift necessary to car
nv them over the obstacles that re-
main before threatened disaster is
safely left behind.
There is need everywhere of that
spirit that only Christmas brings
with it of thought of others, without
stopping to count the cost, but that
spirit will fail of rightful under
standing if our own are to be wholly
forgot. The coming Christmas
should be time of generous, thought
full, even painstaking giving that will
make life little brighter, a little
happier, mayhap a little easier for
those of our own community, neigh
borhood and freside as well as the
stricken host of Europe.-Louisville

BEYOND YOUR KEN

The other day a man was heard
discussing upon the kingdom of
heaven. From his words one would
have thought that he was an undis-
puted authority. When he Wa, done
nj hearers were no wiser than be
fore he spoke. Men can explain and
define many things. but the king
dom of heaven i, beyond his ken.
All We know about thi~ mysterious
place l. what We read and believe or
what we have been told by people who
know, from reading and believing or
having been told. Unless our
thoughts turn childward We become
hopeless in our belief.
There l. in a child something so
pure. - much removed from the >or-
did and selfish tendencies of the
world that it j. perfectly natural to
accept his belief of the kingdom of
heaven. The Master doubtless real
lied this when He said said, "of
such is the kingdom of heaven"
Never attempt to air your belief or
explain the wherefore of the great
unknown. You will never be able to
enter the kingdom of JOY hereafter
unless YOU become as little child.
