JAPAN, CHINA AND AMERICAN RELA-
TIONS.

1t cannot have escaped Baron Shibuzawa,
the Japanese fnancier and philanthropist who
is in Honolulu today on his homeward voyage,
that Americans are watching with peculiar in
terest the relations between Japan and China
and the growing dominance of Japan IN Chin
ese affairs
Very much of the future cordiality between
the United States and the nation of which
Baron Shibuzawa is SO fine a representative
rests on treatment for China that shall not be
based primarily on commercial, political or
military exploitation While it is true that
America is not in position now to lodge form
al protest on behalf of China, acts which tend
to transfer sovereignty from Picking to Toxic
will not be forgotten. The day of reckoning in
world affairs may be postponed but never can
it be abrogated.
Two or three recent moves In Oriental di-
plomacy have caused such Americans as pay
attention to Chinese affairs to look for more
than surface appearances. The now-famous
twenty-one demands were obviously juggled.
The Star Bulletin has good authority for say
ing that the state department and President
Wilson took lively interest in this piece of
japanese fnesse and that Japan knows that
some Of these demands were looked upon by
Americans in the Orient and in the Occident
both as vitiating Chinese sovereignty and as
imperilling legitimate American interests and
relations in the great awakening nation. A
more recent instance of a diplomacy which at
first seems inexplicable dealt with China s
moves for monarchy. The news comes di-
rectly to Honolulu that months ago Japan let
China know Toxic would favor the monarchy,
only to change front completely a few weeks
later. This change of front has been recon
ciled with consistency by the ready explana-
tions of Japanese statesmen, yet other observ-
ers see it as evidence that Tokio is playing one
faction against the other, one campaign against
the other realizing that every time there is

internal clashing in China, Japanese influence
may be extended further and driven deeper.
It's aFepen secret that DIR. Sun Vat Sen, out
lawed In China, found refuge mot only refuge
but safeguard lin Japan. 1t is not SO well
known but just as true that in DR.. Suns abor-
tive revolution of 1911 Japanese soldiers we're
fighting with the rebels. And there is room
for suspicion that Japan at least does not take
drastic steps to quell the present rebellious
movements where such steps could be taken.
Japan's explanation for these evidences of
a national policy is that China is the bone at
which the European Powers are swapping, and
for China's own good the strong hand must
be stretched from Toxic. Yet even the immi-
nent danger of partition does not reconcile
China to the overlordship of her island
neighbor
China looks to America for friendship and
protection. The Chinese have never forgotten
that America returned the Boxer indemnity
money, and even in the throes of revolution
China has faithfully lived up to her intention
of using this money for the education of Chin
csc abroad. The noble work of American
missionaries, teachers and medical men in the
country is bearing the fruit of strong conf
for saying, are convinced that China needs the
friendship of the United States quite as much
as the firm hand of the Mikado's Empire.
This disinterested friendship fast developing
in America, and already signally shown by
Americans in China, cannot be ignored by
Japan in any policy dealing with the Chinese.
1t is the aim of America to help China along
the road of self-development, fitting the Chin
csc to govern great nation along the lines of
modern progress. And no move by Japan
which which will tend to set back that self
government, retard that self-derelopment, can
be regarded with passivity by Americans.
Baron Shibuzawa has let no opportunity
pass to speak for lasting peace between the
country he has just visited and the country

ence He is man of high industrial achieve

CHRISTMAS.

/ Tomorrow we shall walk down the street
and say 'Merry Christmas to- our friends
and even to those we may not know. Some day
the nations will walk down the great highway
of human life, and in the same spirit of good
will which we as individuals now have they
will tip their hats to each other and say,
MERRY Christmas, Brother!''
In the meantime, may we be Christmas
nation, because the heart of peace and good
will is in us. May we be a Christmas nation
because we are peace makers. s
Christmas and Religion.
Again Christmas has deied the ravages of
time because it is religions. Nothing in mans
higher life is more widespread than religion.
Nothing of mans mental outfit endures as re-
IIigion does. Christmas has lived. Christmas
has lived because it is the joyous expression
of one of the greatest truths of religion. God
loves us. He loved us enough to become one
of us. He wanted and still wants to share our
joys and sorrows, the burden of our sin and
our redemption That is what Christmas means
to every Christian heart All men feel the
glow and gladness Of Christmas. But only he
who places in the heart of Christmas a little
shrine where he bows down like those of old
and worships the new born King finds the full
meaning Of this blessed time. If you have not
been making this part of your Christmas,
try it and test the result fer youresf.
A festival of cheer and goodwill, aceompan-
led by custom of gift making, might have.
today great popularity, as such festivals have.
at times enjoyed rBut this alone is wholly in,
adequate to account for Christmas. It has;
lived down through near two thousand years
II
it is SO distinctively and joyonsly religious.
ssSofne day we will drive out of the world,
and out Of ourselves the things that make war
and waste, sickness, and sin, poverty and pain,
hunger and idleness apd overwork. This viii
indeed be CHRIST MAS 1.-THE feast of Christ

Christmas and Childhood.

First of all, because Christmas is for child
rem. 1t is for children and for those older nm
fortUnates who are fortunate enough to remain
childlike in heart. Most of us become too
childish to remain childlike. But, thank God,
as we grow older land too often cold and souri,
the neyer-ending procession of babes and boys
and gifls comes trooping on. And thus the
world Is renewed.
What would the world be to us
If the children were no morei
We should dread the desert behind us
Worse than the dark before. -
Christmas has become the worlds greatest
festival because it is childhood's day. 1t be-
gan with the birth of baby 1t is to this day
the greatest birthday celebration. 1t is of all
days THE day of childhood. AS shepherds
and MAgi gathered about Manager cradle and
offered their choicest gifts, so do the humble
and tie wise Of earth today gather about
childhood. Christmas saves us from the dry
rot offlife because it brings us back to the
children.
Christmas and Peace
Again, Christmas has the secret of perpetual
youth because it is a day of peace and good
will. War is self destructive. As David Starr
Jordan has shown so conclusiYely that none
has tried to contradict the waste of human
life in war can never be replaced. The original
Christmas song was Peace on earth, goodwill
to men The Christmas babe il, his inaugural,
blessed the peacenhakers, and called them the
children of God. And though today we live.
under the awful shadow, we know that the
spirit of Christmas is the spirit of that day
When the war drum throbs no longer,
and the battle flags are furled
In the Parliament of man, the Federation
of the world.

of old.
