LONDON, Dec. 2S.-In the last four
Decembers We have played in Eng
land the miserable farce of Christmas
This December, thank God, we can
celebrate with candid hearts and un-
fettered lips. We can draw our chairs
to the happy table with no horrid
ghost at our elbows whispering of the
swamps of Flanders and of casualty
lists; with no inner voice demanding
what right have We to be merry.
Not that it. will be Dickens Christ
mas. Food control was net dreamt
of in the days of the Christmas
Carol" and the armistice has not end
ed food control.
But there will be turkeys, and ca
pOns. and there will be real English
plum-pufdings and mince pies, for
our humane controller is distributing
stocks of dried fruit and other in
gradients for the national dish Each
of us is to have an extra sugar ration,
and the values of our meat tickets
are to be increased.

months. Why not a Vocational Re-
habilitation School at Columbia?
At the close of the Napoleonic Wars
the British veterans, otherwise in
capacitated and generally impecuni-
Gus, were rewarded for their priceless
services by permission TO beg on the
Kings Highway.
Under the surveillance of so phil
anthropic a government as that of the
United States surely such a thing will
not come to pass in our cities.
Columbia has the equipment and
the housing facilities. The Govern
ment has the wounded men returning
daily from the battlefields of Europe.

CHRISTMAS COMES INTO
OWN AGAIN IN ENGLAND

There will be an abundance of Brit
ish and American toys (many made
by the wounded) for the kiddies, and
bon-bons and crackers and Christmas
trees; and children in hospitals land
perhaps soldiers too) are being en-
couraged TO revert to the old cere-
monial of hanging up stockings on
Christmas Eve
The streets and shops will be fully
lighted (yOu in America cannot ina-
gine what physical and moral tonic
that will be, after four years of half
hearted darkness) and pantomimes on
the whiskered legends of Cinderella,
Jack and the Beanstalk, Babes in the
Wood, etc, will go with a greater
swing than ever they went even in
former peace-times.
We shall dig out all the old GUS
toms. and all the old jokes and do all
the old silly delightful things that we
have well nigh forgotten. After four
years of being men, we shall, this
Christmas. take the golden chance of
being once more children.

CONSERVING TINE

Out of this war there have come
many things, some bad, many sorrow
full, utJSOme infinitely worth while.
One OF these is our new appreciation
of time and our way OF spending the
twenty-four hours of each day that is
given to young, old, rich and poor
alike.
We have not only learned to con-
serve on food ana dress and nutshells
and amusements, but during the war
we also have learned to conserve our
time, or at least to spend our time
TO greater advantage.
There was less of frivOlling and
idling during the war for the reason
that the person who did such was
looked upon by those who worked as
a Stacker. and one never says any
more. 81 have time to burn" because
it is no longer thing to be proud of.
Ii there is time to burn then it sim
looked a splendid opportunity for real
service to Uncle Sam and his coun-
trymen. As one prominent Columbia
man put it:
Those who have plenty Of time to
burn in this world will perhaps also
have plenty of time to burn in the
next"
There are many to whom the time
seems to drag, for instance to the
boys over in France who are so eager
to come home time probably seems to
go very slowly. To some who are very
busy it seems that they are pressed
for time to ever accomplish what they
set out to do. But after all time de-
pends upon how We use it and that
is a question that we decide for our
selves either in the right or wrong !

WHISKY Is NO HELP

/ From the Spokane Spokesman Review.
Discussion of whether whisky is the
sovereign remedy for influenza was
greatly intensified by the fact that al
the height of the epidemic in Spokane
| drug stores were forbidden by law to
| sell alcoholic beverages on prescrip-
ton. Acting on the easy assumption
| that more whisky would have meant
fewer deaths some people have be-
come quite indignant and have writ
ten heatedly to the SpOkesman-Re-
view. A desire on the part of many
doctors TO have whisky for their in
fluenza patients induced city and
county authorities to dole out small
quantities of confiscated liquor under
careful restrictions.
Yet it seems that, after all, the value
of distilled liquors in fighting infiu-
enza is extremely doubtful. In the
first place, habitual users of whisky
are known to be more susceptible to
pneumonia than abstainers. The
steady drinker who contracts pneu-
monia has only a small chance of re-
covery.
There is also a great deal of evil
dence TO show that even the admins
tration of whisky in small medicinal
doses is not by any means an unmiXed
blessing for the flu patient. Recently
DR.. W. A. Evans said:

authorities were advising the use Of
whisky in influenza | could not find
it. | do not doubt that some physi-
clans used whisky in the treatment of
the disease. but they were very few.
Certainly it was not the prevailing
practice"
Doctor lENans cites facts to show
that an organized publicity campaign,
designed to convince the people that
army hospitals were relying chiefly
on whisky to cure sick soldiers, was
being conducted by wholesale liquor
dealers organizations. And he con-
oludes:
In this season of great stress man
tends to revert to the primal. Among
the old time remedies dug up for the
occasion were asafetida, onions, garlic,
sulphur fumes and whisky Whisky

ored paid propaganda department.
When the American Health Associa-
ton held its annual convention in Chi
cago, influenza was the principal topic
CT discussion. Speakers at this con-
ventiOn, physicians of standing. at
tackled in strongest terms what they
called the whisky fallacy in conrec-
riOn with the epidemic.
A recent letter TO the Spokesman
Review from Portland states that ex-

Under the Vocational Rehabilitation
Law, passed unanimously by Congress
and signed by the President in June,
the Federal Board for Vocational
Education is responsible for getting
his old job or Ia new job for every dis
abled soldier and sailor, entitled to
compensation under the War Risk In
surance Law, who wants that kind of
help. The board is empowered, fur
thermore, to give to those handicap
ped men who need and desire training
before going into employment such
education and training, at the expense
of the Federal Government, as is nee
essary to make him usefuI citizen.
Whether the average man is in ia
vor of a universal training program
or not, is it not clear that our first
duty now lies in the retinkering of
returned wounded European soldiers?
AT these army camps men can be COM
fortably housed, medical and surgical
attention can be conveniently admin
istere1 and vocational training could
be well arranged for. Why not con-
vert them into reconstruction camps
for wounded returning American SOL
diers and sailors?
Josephus Daniels, secretary of the
Navy, says: 1T is highly desirable

portunity for the sailor and marine

could be recommended.
When the United States went to war
in behalf of the distressed nations of
the world and for ideals of justice to
which she is unalterably pledged, the
University of Missouri became a train |

He was a new little boy Mt the or

all the scrubbing and cleaning he saw
done there, more so because he had

he was almost ready to leave.
