A WARTIME CHRISTMAS.

Nineteen hundred seventeen marks
our first Christmas OF war. suddenly
the spirit Of the Christ Child has taken
on new meaning. He that loseth
his life for My sake shall find H." IN
a precept now being put into practice.
Fathers and sons have put aside peace
time pursuits to give OF their lives for
world righteousness. And every wife
and mother who has hidden them good
bye with n smile on her lips and "a
light In her eye, has given OF her own
life vicariously. She Is ready to surfer
separation. anxiety and sacrifice, that
righteousness may prevail.
As this first war Christmas season
approaches, her heart thrills with the
thought OF her own contribution 10
these momentous times. Individual gift
giving sinks into insignificance. Social
affairs have lost their Significance.
Something bigger has come into her
life. She is losing her life that she may
find II. II IL a giving OF self. Christ
mas cheer fills her own heart In help
ing to bring II to cantonment and camp.
Already she has sent comfort kits ana
Christmas packages to those at the
front. Now she Is devoting herself TO
war relief work and the poor at home.
"How can I do most to help win this
war;" Is a question she continually
asks herself And always she turns
back to her own kitchen to find there
her real work In the present struggle
for the worlds redemption. To Keep
a stout heart and a steady aim, our
soldiers must be well fed. This she
knows.
She also knows that this first Christ
mas of war for her now marks the
fourth Christmas Of war for the brave
women of France. They have known
the thrill of that first Christmas wheh
they gave of still plentiful stores. since
then there have been for them two
Christmas seasons when they gave from
more and more depleted stores. They
are now facing their fourth Christmas
of war still with brave smile and
courageous spirit. but with an ever
tightening food supply. lnsistent has
been their recent warning that the
next few months will mean actual pri-
yation and need II abundant help is
not forthcoming from the food supply
of the United States.
Every woman in America. in prepar'
ing her Christmas baskets, in market
ing for her Christmas dinner, IN ar
ranging for entertainment ana iestV-
ity. should feel this enormous respon'
sibility of sharing her food supply with
those fighters and friends in France.
Less wheat in bread and pastry, less
butter on the table and In COOKING
more turkey, chicken and fish in place
of meat; more fruits and sweetmeats In
place of candy and sugar desserts, all
these requests of the food administra-
ton should be borne In mind in pre-
pairing the Yuletide menus.
II is womans most direct and most
important part in the world war. IL

THE DAY OF PEACE.
(sy WALT MASON.)

The war will end some blessed day, some day the strife will cease; the kings will put their guns away, and boost the boon of peace. The cap tains then will drop the tools which made the world forlorn and drive their teams of sorrel mules along the rows of corn. While still the tide of battle rolls, while still we hear the din, it seems to countless weary souls that war has always been. Three years, they say, the strife has ragged, across the mourning seas. but it would seem that wars been waged for three eternities. The days that reek of. blood and tears pass slowly OCT the stage; to weary hearts three gory years become an endless age. We're looking forward to the day when peace with honor comes, when kings will put their swords away, and soak their battle drums. I long to see the colonels drop their shining snicker- snees, and buckle down to raise crop of beans and early peas. l long to see field marshals hang their ba- tons from nail and then get busy with the gang, to earn some bloodless kale
