THE SPIRIT OF CHRISTMAS

The children's day of days is here and
it will soon be over. Cheerful confusion
and merry laughter and fragrant Christ
mas trees indoors, smiling greetings and
the community Christmas tree outdoors,
with the spirit of Christmas echoing in
the shouts of happy children-these are
the order of the day. The meaning of
many mysteries of the past few weeks
has now been revealed. Faith in good
old Santa Claus has been justified once
more. Every burdened pedestrian,
caught in the struggling good natured
tide, a symbolic real-Saint Nicholas.
What meaning looks from parent to
parent; how much guarding of sacred
doorss
And who, in the midst of all this hap
piness will dare to say that materialism
has done away with the real spirit and
significance of Christmas,
To be sure, there are some Old Scroo-
ges in the world. There always were,
there doubtless always will be. They
simply make the blessedness of giving
SIlllS LlOle DIISHIIy III IOhCLStob WAIi IAlSlA
surliness. Even Old Scrooge's chilly
heart thawed out in the warmth of Christ
mas love.
There are cold and hungry and dis
appointed little ones in the world today,
little sisters and little brothers. Alas,
that there should be! But there are also
in human hearts a sincerer pity for them,
a firmer resolve to lessen all avoidable
suffering and warmer response to their
appeal for help because of the spirit of
Christmas. Grief and loneliness and often
a blighting selfishness are here, but in
spite of them Christmas comes and its
recurrence awakens and renews human
hope and joy and good will.
A wonderful spirit is the spirit of
Christmas. 1t breathes hope for the un-
fortunate and humility for the prosper
Gus. 1t instills love; it makes humble
and naughty akin and it teaches all that
the only real contentment is to be found in
giving contentment. In spite of our pur-
suit of things material, the spirit of
Christmas grows mightier every year.

THE SOLUTION FOR RUSSIA

If there is any one word with which to
sum up the remedy for world wretched-
ness today that word is: Work.
In the old days the people worked for
others; then they had to work, and re-
ceived little return for it. Today they
have the opportunity to work for them
selves and the hardest task in the world
is to teach them how to do it.
The great curse of Russia today is less
the temporary autocracy of the soviet
than the more debasing autocracy Of
shiftlessness, due to ignorance, to lack of
ifourishment, to lack Of tools, to lack of
everything except the land that lies there
waiting to be worked. The American
Relief Administration, which probably
knows more about Russia today than
anyone else outside the Russian people
themselves, has accepted the plan of the
American Jewish Distribution Committee
for the introduction of American farm
methods and machinery, especially in the
Ukraine and White Russia.
DR.. Joseph A. Rosen, who made the
preliminary studies, is to have charge of
the work and already has planted 2,700,-
900 acres of land with Indian corn hoping
to replace the customary Russian small
grain, as one means of combating famine.
AS is usual in such enterprises, non-Jew-
ish as we'll as Jewish farmers will re-
ceive American tractors, also instruction
from the corps of agriculturists and ex-
perts in tractor farming who accompany
Dr. Rosen.
A significant feature is that the farm
ers are to pay for their tractors with
grain; this grain will go to the farmer
co-operatives and be converted into more
machines.
The eminently practical features of
this undertaking will commend it strong
ly to thoughtful Americans as likely to
do more toward restoring Russia from
liability to an asset than all the Euro
pean conferences Any country whose
agricultural activity is OH a sound basis
is swiftly beyond the need of interference,
benevolent or otherwise.

HARDINGS TO SPEND
CHRISTMAS QUIETLY

Washington, Dec. 2S.-Christ-
mas at the White House will lack
much of the usual spirit of times
gone by because of Mrs. Harding $
illness.
There will be no house guests
and no Christmas tree. Neither
the president nor Mrs. Harding has
made any holiday plans. She may
come down stairs in her wheel
chair and preside at the table for
Christmas dinner and otherwise
the day will be like any other since
she was taken i'll.
TO add little cheer, the White
House has yuletide wreaths in the
windows, ana there will be a pro-
fusion of flowers.
As Christmas present to the
thousands of government en-
ployes, President Harding issued
an executive order closing the
government departments at noon
today and at that hour most high
officials as well closed up their
desks and went home.
The senate, too, joined in the
early beginning of Christmas sea-
son, holding only short session,
but the house went ahead with the
consideration of appropriation
bills.

HOW 1T STARTED

Adam and Eve sat in Eden
On the night of December two four
And Ewes under lip was low dropping
Twas plain to be seen she was sore.
"Whatsa matter little hon?" says old Adam.
You're some friend. sure do believe,
Come and tell your old boss
Come whisper right here on his sleeve"
And Eve drew closer her fig leaves
AS she nestled to old Adams breast
And barred her young nfes first secret
The beginning and all of the rest.
She wept she told him how the story
OF how the slick serpentine snake
Had lured her off into the Garden
And told her Saint Nick was fake.
So Adam. he gathered her closely
And told her Little girl, never mind,
The snake gives only an apple,
Now see how you care for my kind"
So he took from his belt tiara,
The brilliance of which she'd meier seen
She grabbed it and danced like fairy
All over that garden so green.
And straight to the snake, she went with It,
He'd said that she'd never succeed
That Adam heartless Indifferent
And nothing she'd do would he heed
But Eve, with the wiles of woman
Without precedent put up bluff
She drew on her fertile imagination
And pulled the original sob stuff
Grandma Gadabout Joins me in wishing you an
ou and all Of you the merrlest Of Christmases.
"T. B. CRABB."

That ''red army" that Russia proposes
to disband isn't really a red any more.
Only sort of lemon color.

AS Carlyle might remark again, if he
peered out of his grave and took a slant
at politics, "Man shall not live by bread
alone, but the catchwords."
o @ 9
People who used to think that laws
once adopted, would execute themselves,
now have the same profound faith in
slogans.
They've finally succeeded in getting a
Herrin murder jury, but disinterested
bystander may be pardoned for suggest
ing that probably nobody will be hung
but the jury.

GRAIN
Chicago Bonrd of Trade


Chicago, Dec. 23.-Holiday dull
ness prevailed in the grain market
today and prices averaged lower as
a result of profit taking and lack
of aggressive buying. At the finish
wheat was off &c to 1Hc, with
May $1.24N to $1.24$ and July
$L13b to $1.1SA. Corn declined
a shade to 4sc, oats We're unchang-
ed to 1sc higher and provisions I'M
changed.
Foreign exchanges were closed
for the Christmas holiday and trad
ers showed an inclination to re-
main out Of the markets here UNI
I'll Tuesday. Offerings We're suf-
ficient TO supply buyers. Reports
that Greece had purchased 1,500,-
1000 bushels of Manitoba wheat
overnight and that some business
was put through with the United
Kingdom served as an impetus in
values in mid-session but the
strength soon waned. Private
cables from the United Kingdom
and from Antwerp took bullish
view of the situation there. 1t was
also rumored that wheat from
North America for December-Jan
uary delivery to Europe would be
in good demand after the holidays.
These latter reports, however, had
little effect on the dull market.
Corn and oats were easier, pros
poets of large receipts of corn Tues
day being a depressing factor.
Provisions were dun but aver
aged higher in line with hog values.

A False Note

A British tar, home on leave and
celebrating the occasion, had got
himself into a dilemma. He had
hired taxi, only to discover when
approaching his destination that
he was penniless. He had dined
and wined, not wisely, but too well.
But the British navy is training
school of resourcefulness. He
caught up the speaking tube,
shouted "Stop!" and jumped out.
Il joust want to pop into this to-
bacconists and get some matches"
he explained to the driver. 1--WE
dropped a pound note somewhere
in the cab and can't find it in the
dark" He entered the tobaccon-
lists, and as he did so the cab and
its driver vanished into the night,
as he had anticipated,--The Ar
gOnaut.

A local healthseeker a bed patient, sent drop
of his blood to of the tuberculosis cures with
which town is surfeted at present. and paid
