THE CHRISTMAS MESSAGE.

We have reached another Yuletide.
All nature and man responds to the
SONG of the angels on the Judean Hills.
GLORY to God in the highest and on
earth peace and good will to men,"
This should be a real Christmas as we
are at peace with all men and nations.
We can really gaze at the star OF
Bethlehem with the shepherds and
with the Magi journey to the little city
clustered in the hills of Judea and
place at the feet Of Jesus gifts of CRATE
full hearts and lives of service.
Each recurring Christmas tide marks
off a period of our life Again we are
reminded of the gift of our Saviour to
the world. The Peace heralded by
the angels on that first Christmas
morning should abide in each heart.
The Good which broke forth from the
Star in the East should spread across
the world today and lead all mankind
to the birth place of a never ending
peace.
May He who was born in Bethlehem
be born anew in you and fill you with
His presence and grace.
where is Jesus born today?
Not in Bethlehem, far away;
He was born within thy breast
When thou doest His behest."

MODERN MAN Is A
FIGHTING ANIMAL.

Universal brotherhood Is largely n
dream. Man is a fighting animal, ac-
cordlng TO DR.. Grille, as quoted by
Fredric j. Haskin In his news column
of Wednesday In the Salt Lake Tri-
bune. DR.. Grille is an eminent Ameri-
can Specialist In soldier psychology.
The article continues by saying that
scores OF generations have taught men
TO cease fighting as individuals but
them to fight as nations,
The best fighters have o the mos
mates and left the most offspring
, Those who have failed to fight V
perished and left 40 offspring.
According TO this line OF reasoning
several generations OF intensive educa-
ton will be necessary to educate men
TO the non-fighiting attitude, just as
long generations have taught them tt
cease fighting as individuals
DIR. Grille urges hat war be painted
fairly. that all the horrors and afro
cities, and sufferlngs be painted In ms
tory as well as the glamor, the glor,
and the herOism. If men were taughI
from childhood what wal really Is
what It's actual effects are on the ma

and who gets them, the whole reactlol
of war would be modified IL woul'

period that His ideal of a house not
made by hands was conceived.
We celebrate Christ's natal day in
appreciation of the fact that lie came
to teach us how to build for eternity.
For generation after generation
the world rose and fell successfully
because they were building on the
shifting sands of physical sense

used for the divine, spiritual man
made in Gods image, who inhabited
the body of Jesus, and who lies dor

call of the power of the will to rise
up and declare Gods man to be ruler
and drive out the controlling lnflu-

Christ said, "My Father and l r

Good is divine Love, divine Love is

Jesus lived divine Love-Good-there
was revealed to him the divine law

HOLLAND SEEN WITH

Holland NAV be expected TO stand
with the United States on the problems
of the Pacific This seems to be the
general opinion OF our naval men to-
day There is also talk as TO the pos
sibility of Tokio's reply to the query Of
the Japanese delegates being a counter
proposal Rumors are coming thick and

inaction. 1t is a situation OF war

. that the United States is standing
firmly on the Hughes plan as originally
offered.
It is understood Holland intends tc
fortify a number Of bases in the East
Indies This information probably did
not get a warm reception in japanese
quarters, for IL Is supposed that in this
particular Japan will register objections
although everyone knows land fortress
cannot be moved to the attack The ac-
ton on the part of Japan in this matter
will to some extent dictate our posi-
tion on such matters in the future, il
has been said.
Borneo oil is of great Importance to
us in the event of trouble in the Pacific
1t represents almost the complete
source of Japan for this kind OF fuel
Japanese naval tankers are always
slowly plying between Borneo and the
Japanese naval bases, and in the event
of trouble our own tankers would have
to make Borneo their point of loading
