Christmas is eminently the
children's day. From the gray Of
early dawn-it is the only day of
winter when their eyes open at
that hour-to the latest hour at
night, let everything give way to
the little autocrats whose tyranny
is courted by every man and wo-
man who has any of the essence
of love in his breast. Romp and
tumble and shout with them.
When another Christmas comes,
some of them will not be here,
and those that are will by one
year be that much further from
the royalty that doth so fittinly
become them. Christmas is for
the children-let everything bend
to their enjoyment.

The Twelfth Month


December, the twelfth month o.
the year, is with us again. How
quickly these<old years do roll a
round, bringing with them the
joys and sorrows of life and wit.
Messing the realization of ambitions
the achievement of success and
yes, even the downfall of nations.
Many years have passed since
the travellers from afar, guided by
the Star in the East, found the
Savior in the Manager at Bethle-
hem and, in alteration, laid at his
feet priceless gifts of gold and
frankincense and myrrh. To this
day, however, and probably as
long as the world exists we OBJ
serve the birthday of the King on
the twenty-ffth day of the twelfth
month.
In years past we have been con-
tent to observe Christmas in the
fashion prescribed-by both CIV
ing and receiving little remem-
brances while gathered around the
time honored Christmas tree. Christ
mas this year should be the great |
est one in the history of America, /
for have we not been given, by |
the victories of our armed forces,
the undisturbed privilege of liv-
ing as free people, in America,
under the Stars and Stripes.
Our Christmas gift is Peace this
year, and what a wondrous gift it
is-purchased by the blood of the
flower of our youth. And to the
oppressed nations and people of
the world liberty is given this
Christmas in the year 1918. Mil
lions of men have fought and died
that Christmas this year might be !
made the most memorable since {
the first one was celebrated at the
cradle of the Christ child. {
Those who know say that the ]
men who fought our battles in the
war areas of France and Belgium {
thought not of their own safety, s
but always of the loved ones back $
home. Surely they, of all people, /.
know what the spirit of Christmas
s-for have they not given them t
selves and asked nothing in return. r
1T is better to give than to re- f
,eive," but what a pity that every '
me of the brave Allied soldiers n
Who gave his life to the cause
an not enjoy the fruits of victory. V
In thinking of our Christmas fl

Red Cross Work
Must Go On

The American Red Cross is ar
emergency organization by nature
it deals with problems as they
arise.
No better Illustration of this
fact can be given than to recall its
, work since America entered the
war. If a hospital was needed in
an emergency at any particular
point quickly the Red Cross
supplied it. If a train load of
troops crossed the country and
for one reason or another the
provisions failed, the Red Cross
has had the facilities and the or
| ganization to cope with the situa-
ton and to send these boys on
their way happy with full stom-
Eachs.
What has been the record of
the Red Cross-it has never fail
ed to answer call of distress, no
matter what or when or how that
call came.
1t is already preparing for SER
vice in peace times-but a bigge r |
broader service than ever under
taken by any relief organization.
A message sent by the War
Council of the Red Cross to all
chapters shows that long ago
definite plans were made to meet
the emergencies that are bound to
arise when peace is finally here.
1t said IN part:
ION February tenth last year,
nearly six weeks before the Uni
ted States declared war, National
Red Cross Headquarters advised
its chapters to prepare for war.
THAT which has followed in
the record Of the Red Cross in
helping to win this war and to re-
ieve suffering growing out of it,
constitutes something of which |
every American citizen needs to
De proud.
The moment is now come to
prepare for peace. Actual peace
nay come at any moment; it may
,e deferred for some time. Until i,
,eace is really here, there can be
10 relaxation in any Red Cross
fort incident to active hostilities.
but even with peace, let no
me suppose that the work of the :
led Cross is finished. Millions of
american boys are still under
rms. Thousands of them are
lex and wounded. Owing to the
heritage in shipping, it may take
year or more to bring our boys
ack from France. But whatever
ne time, our protecting arms
lust be about them and their
antilles over the whole period
1hich must elapse before the nor.
lal life of peace can be formed.
The cessation of war will re- =

THREATENING GERMAN LINE.

Paris, Oct 1.-THE fate of the Ger
man defenses along the Belgian coast
and in the Lille industrial area was
sealed by the continued advance OF
the allied armies under King Albert
on the thirty mile front in Flanders.
the Belgian coast line is far greater
them the gain of Flanders territory
with its many airdromes and sub
marine bases.
The extreme right wing of the Ger
man defenses in the west has been
wrenched away from the protecting
sea. Henceforth the immense line
which has been buttressed by the sea
on one end and by the Swiss from
tier on the other forcing the allies to
attack frontally, can be outflanked :
1t is believed here that the allied
attack in Flanders dfa not surprise
the Germans, but the rapidity of the
advance did. The enemy now is pow
erless to retrieve the situation. The
allied rush has been so quick that rne
hope is expressed that Lille, Tourco-
ing and Roubaix will be found almost
intact.
The operations in Flanders are
bound to have a vital effect on the
whole western front. While the Bri-
tish attack across the Lys will bring
about the evacuation Of the Lille sal
lent, the march of tho Belgians on
Client will have a marked influence
on the general retreat in the west to,
which the Germans are irrevocably
condemned by the Flanders advance
General Ludendorff will be obliged
to seek to re-establish his fast
crum bling front far in the rear of the
present operations. He probably will
have to defend the German frontier
on the line, Antwerp. .Namur-Metz
Such a maneuver, it is believed here,
would be most perilous with Marshal
F'och hammering unre1entingly on the
armies.
In any case the German commander
has to preserve at all costs the Ar
denne pivot. That is why the Ger
mans are offering such determined re-
to the French north of Vouz-
ieres and to the Americans on both
sides Of the Meuse. The enemy might
give way on other parts of the line
with little strategic loss. but TO fail
in defending the Ardenne pivot would
mean disaster.
