CHRISTMAS.

When Christmas dawned three
years ago it carried brighter
promise to mankind than any other
Christmas in nineteen centuries.
The most terrible of all wars had
come to an end; the spirit of tree
dom had triumphed over the spirit
OF despotism after the most devas-
tatipg struggle in history; and
peace and righteousness seemed at
last united to rule the world.
Yet two succeeding Christmases
passed, leaving men in doubt and
dismay. Although peace had fol-
lowed war, almost nowhere did the
spirit of good will prevail. Ma
tons that had stood in arms be-
came distrustful Of one another.
Bolshevism held in its cruel chains
great people that had failed to
profit by the fight for freedom.
Burdens of taxation. of unemploy-
ment, of debt weighed heavily
in every land. Christmas 1910.
and Christmas 1920, were days
when the fair promise of Christmas,
1918, fingered in the hearts of
many men and women as a mock
cry.
And now Christmas. 1921, dawns
upon the world with a light that
shines clearer, steadier. brighter
even than that which shone three
years ago. The triumph of ideal
ism cannot be doubted or delayed.
Universal and lasting peace, the
greatest hope of mankind. the
thing for which generations of men
have longed and prayed, is nearer
consumation than tt has ever been
before; it may never be guaranteed
but there can be no question that
some of the fundamental causes OF
war will be- removed and that the
settlement of such questions as
may from time to time arise out
