This motive of profit has been given n

Christmas is the time when we are
conscious Of an unusual desire to be
kind. One day every year the world
suddenly becomes different. Physical.
ly speaking, 1t is the same world. The
sky Is the same. The streets are the
same. The DEMONSTRATING touch
Of holly here and there-are the same.
But you and and our neighbors are
different. We are more just In our
judgments, more thoughtful in our at
tention, more unselfish, more kind.
1t is probably true that these sea-
sons Of the soul, however feeting,
leave their mark. We are, perhaps,

that so few of us have kept the spirit

Surely the meaning Of this present
hour is clear. Nations must do unto
others as they would have other ma
tons do unto them. Nations must
enter into the worlds life not merely
to get something, but to give some
thing, and, in some international as
ISOLATION, even to risk something in
the interest Of world justice and world
peace.

The nations of Christendom have
been motived far more by Nietzsche's

has been pagan, not Christian
conception. The great nation has been
thought of as nation able to lord 1t
over other nations, not as nation
eager to serve other nations. The
proud symbols of the Western world
