Many persons. whose sympathies are
arouscd-as well they may be-by the suf-
fering caused by the war are proposing to
contribute none ordinarily spent for
various relief funds. The intention is
widely proclaimed and temporary societies
motive that prompts this is admirable, of
course. But there is reason to believe
that if this determination is as general as
il is rumorcd to be it's practice might en-
tail serious results In our own country.
Christmas buying is an established Gus

made their purchases of goods for what
is known in the business world as 1.-The
Christmas trade" Money is invested in
these. many of which have only an i'm
mediate s~easonable value. and on their
sale depends to a measurable extent the
prosperity of thousands of dealers.
To reduce receipts from this source by
a sudden and wholly unforeseen diversion
of money ordinarily spent in Christmas
shopping. even to apply it to so worthy
a cause as the relief of Europe's war vic
Tins. would mean little less than disaster
for many shops, while others. financially
stronger. would feel the pinch seriously.
Business difficulties would ensue and re-
trench1nent would be imperative. Nor
would the I,roprietors themselves be the
only ones to suffer. Employees also would
be affected. and through them their fam
lilies. while dealers in necessities. to whom
the greater portion of wages goes sooner
or later. would feel. in turn. the far reach
ing effects.
Approve or not. as may. the practice of
Christmas giving. the fact still remains
that it is a custom SO firmly established
that many shops look to it as the source of
the years profits. This can not he
changed in Il moment without a distur-
bance of economic conditions. And that
fact might profitably be borne in mind
by those active in forming the relief So

be of greatest service to Europe's war vic
