CONCENTRATION NEEDED

IT HE Red Cross has a tre-
W. mendous task in prepar-
ing to take care of our
wounded and disabled men, in
giving hospital aid to soldiers
of our allies and extending re-
lief to refugees from Belgium,
France and Italy. When such
aid is given it is part of the
win the war" program.
Every allied soldier cared for
and made ready for service
again is an asset to the allied
cause. Refugee families cared
for are an asset because these
people when able to do so will
fight and work in any manner
possible towards an allied vic
tory. But would it be good
strategy to feed and clothe
people in Poland? That
country is under German domi-
nation. The Poles are used as
soldiers and workers for Ger
many. Are we not helping the
kaiser when we feed his sub
jects? The greatest service
America can render to human
ity is to win the war, thereby
stopping the mad career of
Prussianism. 1t may be taken
for granted that the Red Cross
management will be directed
with this goal in view. If it
spreads its efforts over too
much territory it will blunder.
There is no peace in sight
this Christmas and it will be
hopeless for the world to ex-
pect Santa Claus to bring the
dove with him.

IN a place built, like Bethlehem, in
l. many cases against the soft
limestone rock it often happens
that the existence of a ave where
the house was to be was a great at
traction since it offered a ready
made, dry, above ground cellar as
well as a specially suitable spot for
the household animals and for a
storeroom. 1t would seem that Jo-
seph was at last able to get room in
some such back portion of a house,
and there, we are told, Mary bore
her divine Son.
A cave below the high altar of
the Church OF the Nativity is now
shown as the very place where this
august event TRANSFERRED; a little re-
cess, shaped like a clam shell, its
floor of marble wrought into a star
in the center, bearing in Latin the
words, "Here Jesus Christ Was
Born of the Virgin Mary" A row
of lamps hangs round the outer
edge, the right to attend to them be-
ing a jealousy watched matter, each
of the ancient churches, the Greek,
the Latin, the Armenian and the
Coptic, having n or more of these
under its care.
The evidence for this site is SO
strong that most persons accept it as
sufficient, reaching up, as it does, to
within living memory of the days Of
the apostles. But even if this be an
illusion the fact remains that in this
petty village the Saviour of the
world was made man for our re-
demption. No wonder that we read
of the anthem of the angels, for
surely nothing could draw forth the
interest of the heavenly population
like the exceeding grace God was
showing to sinful man.
The scene of the visit of the shep-
herds is pointed out as on a rough
slope, facing the village, at some
distance to the east, Bethlehem ly-
ing far above on its mountain seat.
One can follow the shepherds in
their journey to see the ~unspeakable
wonder. They would go along the
rich valley of Boaz and then up the
terraced hill by a path still in use,
nor is it uni%nstructive to reflect
that, while simple shepherds were
led by angels to the manger, the
high priest and the great of Jeru-
salem, so near, slept through that
most illustrious night of all history,
quite unconscious of what had hap
pened. But we know of it, and may
God grant that if we cannot go with
the shepherds to Bethlehem we may
one day go to the right hand of God
and worship him there, who that
night lay a little child in Mary's
arms.-Dr. Cunningham Geikie.

He adds that his statements shall

continue the hard. relentless battle

break the destructive tendencies OF

The English and French attack

at least be doubted whether at
that tine when the connection be-

not established a strong English
naval unit would have brought
the attack success. The necessity
of not withdrawing tho English
battleships from the North sea
prevented England from using
more powerful unit at Constanti-
nople To this extent the Ger
man fleet was not without tnfiu-

fender of Constantinople. That
