CHRISTMAS

The glad Yu'etide season of cheer
and good viii is with us again and
it is to be hoped that we, one and
all, may be able to enter into its
festivities with the same spirit of
faith and love as makes Christmas
one OF the most fond and sacred
memories of our childhood. The
celebration of the Nativity of our
Lord is the one universally observed
ard revered festival of Christendom.
Its annual recurrence should ever
bring us nearer to the lowly Naza-
rene in spirit and in conduct.
And the angel said unto them,
Fear not: for, behold, ! bring you
good tidirgs of great joy, which
shall be to all people.
For unto you is born this day in
the city of David a Saviour which
is Christ the Lord.
Glory to God in the highest. and
on earth peace, good will toward
men"

. A by-product of the Washington
Disarmament parleys has been a re-
crudescence of the Harding "as2o-
citation" idea. The Presidents pro.
posals, If they may be digaifled By
such a name. are as indefinite ard
chaotic in form and plan as when
first advanced in the last national
campaign. Neither has he sugges-
tion as TO how TO put teeth" in his
agency of International justice. But,
in spite of its haziness, the nations
seem inclined TO give it careful con-
sileration for they are all, let US
hope, sincerely seeking the same
end,-international peace. Their
only criterion OF judgment Is FEAST

ed in favor of a real. going" insti-
tuition, as Is the League and of
which they are members, IN compar-
ison with a mere hypothetical asso-
citation of the distant future.

liciy expressed his opinion tonight that
the Irish problem is a soluble problem.
This statement was greeted with loud
applause by tho distinguished COM
