CHRISTMAS TIME

Rapidly we approach the supreme
festive occasion of the year, ''the gra-
cious hal,owed Christina slime" So
glad myself in the quiet contempla-
ton of this wonderful human festival
I am prompted to express an earnest
wish that it may dawn upon each one
Of you with more helpful signifcan-
ce and deeper, more serene JOY than
ever before. 1t seems to me that
Christmas always comes to sweeten
our disappointments, to put Drawer
heart in us, if we have been buffoted,
and somehow to repair the rueful dam
age, which unlocked for disaster may
have wrought in some of our cherish
ed plans
threatening picture of the dire and
despairing needs and the unprecedent-
ed opportunities for disinterested, hu-
manitarian service to "Be A Friend to
Man." lest he be accused Of taking all
the joy out of life. And yet the times
through which we are passing have
never been so startl' ng suspicious and
pregnant. Is not the true Christmas
Spirit bound to overflow in Christian
benefcience just as surely as love al
ways tends to express itself in appro-
pirate giving and can never be I'M
mindful Of those in need May there
fore, an abiding Joy and sustaining
strength 50 necessary to cheerfully
bear life's inevitable burdens and to
ungrudgingly share of our mutual
blessings and bounties one with an
other be yours in an ever increasing
measure .. Among the best things
that life holds for me is to know that
you are doing your work bravely,
without wincing, with your face hea-
venward. Let good fellowship reign.
Let. good cheer radfate everywhere

there are nearly 100000 soldiers OF
the great American army who never
have asked for the $50 bonus which

Bonus for soldiers Of the great war
has been one question of contention.
Nobody knows yet definitely whether
the bonus bill is to be voted, but If
congress shall give final approval to
the plan it is possible that the pay
