AS erasmus COMES.

(By Larry HQ")
Gittin' close to Crismus,-
And my heart begins to sing,
And / catch the CLEAN
OF a wonder-dream,
And hear the stir Of wing;
The world is touched with magic
And there's glory in the air,
And my long-dim eyes
Gaze up at the skies
To glimpse the Glory there.
Gittin' close to Crismus,-
And what is Crismus for?
To fill the heart
With kindly art
That loves men more and more;
To sweep away our sorrow
And crown US with delight;
To make the soul
More sure of the goal
That shines beyond the night.
Gittin' close to Crismus,
And so long to see
My gift of joy
For man and boy
Hung high in the Crismus Tree;
And so pray for the gladness
That fills me to the brim,
That may give
Some love to live
In memory of Him.

NOT FOR you.

= YOOVER says the world is facing the most
II appalling famine it has ever known, and
Vanderlip came all the way from New
York to tell the west that the only effective way
of winning the war is through the individual
saving of food stuffs and clothing But of course
that doesn't mean that YOU have any saving to
do. Perish the thought! just keep right on iv-
ing as you have always done and American luck
will win the war Certainly no one would for a
minute suggest that it is your personal duty to
abstain from things you have always found
quite necessary to your comfort! Keep right on
being comfortable, by all means, and when the
war is not to your satisfaction just criticize
the American government, the American soldiers
and the men at the head, and wonder why it is
impossible for the United States to do things
with the same efficiency as the European coun-
tries. But you are "well-fxed" financially YOU
can afford to pay the prices for wheat and meat
and all the other things Hoover and Vanderlip
suggest that you do not use So keep right on
using them! What does the victory of the coun-
try mean anyway, if you are to be temporarily
uncomfortable!

tinues to reason in this way!
