MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Here and there along the way or thls workaday world are a few milestones that make us stop and take notice Hurrying along at breakneck speed, the dust we are raising blurring our vision and obscuring our view. there are two things that stop us in our path and clear the cloud from before our eyes. They are bereavement and-Christmas.
 Bereavement is a cruel awakener. For it opens our eyes too late and so brings to our hearts only sorrow and frequently bitterness to our souls.
 But Christmas! It brings the same awakening, the same realization of the triviality and futility of the things that have stood between us and the great view And yet it fills our hearts with gladness and our souls with joy. It comes not too late, but in time for us to reflect it's blessed light. And the world is better and more beautiful to us, and we are better for the Christmas spirit.
 Even if it does not endure all the way to the next Christmastide, it has brought out for a while at least all that is Godly in man and divine in woman, and so switched this founder ing old world on to the right track again.
 It may be that not all Christmas giving embodies the spirit that it is

ln cold weather it's sometimes rather Snficult to keep house we'll venti- Isted- Fresh air is just as essential even if 1t is cold.
 A window opened an inch or two from the top draws out the heated, stale air in a room. Another window should be opened from the bottom to allow fresh air to enter the room. Tn house with rooms opening out ot each other one window may be opened in one room and one in am other. This keeps the air circulating and fresh all the time.
 Menu for Tomorrow
 Breakfast: Halves of oranges, salt codfish hash, spider corn cake, coffee. Luncheon: Onions au gratin, brown bread sandwiches, nut cookies, tea. Dinner: Pea soup, boiled mutton, caper sauce, mashed potatoes, scal- loped tomatoes, steamed graham pud- ding, coffee.

more blessed to give than to receive. But see these gifts to Christmas fund: S1, Anonymous 50 cents, Tn memory of our baby" 75 cents, An onyrnous, I wish I had nore;" $1, 'In memory of my mamma in heaven:" 10 cents, 'Tn thanlfulness." Where or when do we get nearer to God that that?
 And the spirit of giving touches more than our substance. Christmas joy, Christmas cheer, Christmas happiness we are trying to spread, and our Merry Christmas!" is as hearty for the newsboy. for the postman, for the policeman on his lonesome vigil as for our own dear ones.
 Christmas attunes the ear of the bachelor and the cynic to the sweet ness of the music in the cry of giee Of little children, and it paints a star of Bethlehem above the beggar by the door. For once all mankind is kin.
 And to the reunited family around the Christmas board comes a sense of peace and thankfulness, of reverence and awe in the Presence, a stirring to the depths and calling forth of the best in us and yet light mirth and joy and cheer.
 Christmas is here! If we will we can hold on to it until Santa comes again. Here's wishing you, my friends, a merry one and a long one!

THE HOBBY By Edmund Vance Cooke

 The baby rides his mothers knee; A bike suits brother Robbie; The proud ship rides the restless sea, But I-I ride a hobby.
 4 hobbyi a hobby!
 Ha. ha! ride hobby. Some ride a palpitating plane, Whose heart is hot and throbby; Some ride taxi. some a train, But still I ride my hobby. Some ride a Rolls Royce limousine, Some find Ford less snobby, Some ride a plough, but my machine Is just a simple hobby. Some ride a tank, like those in France All spiked and sealed ana knooDs' Some ride inside an ambulance But prefer hobby. Some people ride in that patrol Whose footman is bobby; Some ride rail. but on my soul I'd rather ride 8 hobby. Some folk ride well and some ride
 worse:
 Some smile and some are sobby; Some ride alas. within hearss. But let me ride my hobby.
 My hobby! my hobbyi Ha! hal I'll ride my hobbyl In Sweden a physician cannot sue for his fee, while in Belgium a lawyer is in the same position.

WAGES AND UNREST

Wages are higher in America today than they are anywhere else on the earth and higher than they have ever been in America.
 There is more unrest among the wage -earners in America than there has ever been; and probably no class of workers are more dissatisfied than the people whose material compensa- tion for their labor is so large.
 What is the explanation of this strange combination of big wages and seething unrest?
 It is not a sufficient answer to say that the mounting cost of living wipes out the apparent advantage of the high wage rate. This is true, but only in part.
 While the wage -earner, along with everyone else must pay more for living expenses, he, along with everyone else, is living in a better way. People have more physical comforts; they wear bet ter clothes; they own a car and enjoy advantages which were once supposed to be the special perquisites of the privileged classes.
 All of which is something to be thankful for, but it does not cure un- rest and discontent.
 It may be urged with some justice IndL IaDofS s pllgnI was so pdu to Desln with and it's returns from industry so pitifully inadequate that the increases so far granted have served only to tan- talize rather than satisfy. Nevertheless, the wage increase has been substantial and if content Is to be brought about by abolishing poverty and bettering physical conditions the temperature tube of social unrest should be falling. But it is rising. Unrest is not 10 be cured by wages Man needs vastly more than a pay roll. He is entitled to a fair compen- sation for his work; but people are not made happy and contented by improv- ing their surroundings.
