A Patriotic Christmas
A lady writes me a most interesting
~ OR. FRANK CRANE
(CopyrghL 1915. by Frank Cranel

a lady writes me a most interesting
and common-seuse suggestion.
Several friends, she Mates. have
agreed to discontinue this year their
usual exchange of gifts and to devote
their time and money TO Red Cross or
other relief work She expresses the
wish that this resolution be adopted 10y
everybody, that the usual Christmas
presents be given 10 children only, that
some suitable souvenir be manufactured
to be sent with ones best patriotic
Christmas wishes, and that altogether
we make IT patriotic Christmas,
In this wish millions will concur.
Christmas in its spirit is beautiful
In its practical working out it becomes
often a nuisance.
Few of us can afford to give our friends
those gifts which our generous Impulse
suggests But we are weak. Along
about the first of December we resolve
that bis year we viii confine our giving
to a little card. then we are gradually
drawn into the swirl of Christmas buy
ing, and by the end of the month we
have ANONYMOUSLY collapsed, we have
purchased the usual pile of useless gew-
gaws and our poor bank account is mas
sacred.
This year we have an excellent rea-
son 10 reform. We are in the midst Of
gigantic sacrifices. The government taxes
our income, the cost Of living mounts,
and appeals for charity, especially for
the various forms Of war relief, abound
Why not, then, determine that in this
critical time we shall abstain from max
ing presents, that We will stay out Of the
alluring shops, and not allow ourselves
to be engulfed in the torrent Of Christ
mas extravaganza
Let us sit down and calculate how
much We can afford to give, and let US
give that to some organization that is
helping the soldiers.
Let US remember our friends only with
a card or a letter with the personal
touch
OF course, the children are to be ex-
cepted. The toys and sweetmeats that
are their due must not be omitted. War
or no war, the child must have this one
happy day.
But for the grown-ups it is no time
for self-indulgence when our sons and
brothers are in camp and trench. If
We have anything to spare let US send
il to them.
Would not this be the most beautiful
Christmas the country has ever known
If it could be signalized by an intelligent
self-restraint, and by such action as
would show that we realize the tremen-
dous significance of the hour Of trial
now upon us?
