GIVING THE OTHER FELLOW
THE BENEFIT OF THE DOUBT

In these days of religious bicker-
ing it is refreshing to read such an
expression as that by E. E. S. in
"Flotsam & Jetsam" on this page
in our last issue. He said, at seems
to us as we write, that possibly if
we all preached less, and practiced
more, the world would be much
better place to live in"
Someone has aptly said, "What
you ARE speaks so loudly | cannot
hear what you sayr" E. E. S. is con-
sistent both in his acts and words.
/ know him. His is the broad-mind-
ed expression of a broad-minded
man. And he is devout church
member. Church members, especially
preachers, would do well to read
his article in the last issue.

We know good woman who gives
her children and friends inexpensive
yet appropriate presents, reservine
her larger gifts for those who really
need them.
Many a needy person thanks God
at Christmas time for her kindness
She gives so unobtrusively, no one
is the wiser except herself and the
recipient, no blare of trumpets, only
the true Christmassy spirit in the
hearts of the giver and the receiver
Gifts are a fine thing as an ex-
preston of affection and friendship
yet we know of no law that compels
the crowding of all tangible express
sion of these virtues into Christmas
week.
The children of Israel were told to
gather their mamma fresh every day;
something of this, we believe,
should be done in our expressions of
love and esteem.
Presents" said Charles Lamb,
loft endear absents."
An OCCASIONAL inexpensive, yet APP
#propriate, reminder of our love and
friendship, scattered at intervals
thruout the year, would cement our
lives together far more solidly than
this mad orgy of spending that
takes possession of far too many of
us at Christmastide.
Then we could face the New Year
with a smile, harboring no fear of
the Bills of December spelling the
Joy of January.

A PREACHER WITH MORE
BRAINS THAN THE AVERAGE

Rev. Earl Hoon, pastor of st.
Paul's Methodist Church in Sioux
City, Iowa, has voiced an opinion
that proves him to possess both
common sense as well as religious
zeal. He spoke before the AID Club
in Cedar Rapids the other day, and
condemned the criticism that most
preachers direct at newspapers.
He said: "The criticism grows out
of ignorance of the average preach
err as to what news and advertising
are. The average newspaper man
tells the truth. He wants to tell the
truth. It's matter of getting the
news to him. Give him the truth
and you will see what's printed.
I've taken reporters into my conf
dence times without number, and
have never been betrayed"
He went ON to urge that churches
warm up" to newspaper men, and
declared that newspapers reach more
people in day than the churches
do in a month. That minister is
sensible. And | venture to say that
his pews are filled every Sunday.

GOVERNMENT BONUS OF $50
DUE EVERY SERVICE MAN
VETERANS COLUMN"

The annual report of the War
Department shows that the United
Staes Government has already paid
bonus of 500, 1877, AGO to ex-service
men of the World War. This is in
conformity with an amendment to
the revenue act approved February
"a, 1919, which directed the payment
of $50 to every person who served
in the military forces of the United
States during the World War and
was honorably discharged This
payment of $50 was included in the
final pay voucher given every ex-
service man at the time of his hon
orable discharge. Subsequent to the
passage of the act, all soldiers dis
charged between April 6, 1917, and
the passage of the act and who
were not given this payment are
entitled to it by submitting their
claims to the finance officer of the
War Department. Only 1,668,791
have filed claims and been paid.

OPPOSE GIFTS TO GERMANY

Protest against appropriation of
any funds for use in relief work in
foreign lands, particularly Germany,
has been voiced by members of
Tank Corps Post of the American
Legion in Washington.
A resolution from the capital city
post declares that the proposal to
set aside funds for the relief of
Americas former enemies is not in
accord with the fundamental laws
of the nations, and that no So
called Humanitarian" grounds are
sufficient reason for expenditure of
the taxpayers money for such pur-
poses.

christmas comes but once II year,
And when it comes it brings good
cheer.
So runs the old jingle. We smile
wanly, gazing at our depleted peck
etbooks, not so sure that the rhyme
is altogether true.
The Christmas festival is celebra-
ted by most folk nowadays, even if il
should have no religious significance
to them.
1t is time for generosity to our
friends and kindly charity to those
less fortunate than ourselves.
We feel that in properly observing
the birthday of the Son of God,
some of His spirit should enter into
our celebration.
This is not as much in evidence
in this "Land of the Free" as it
should be. The day should not be
devoted to unwise or extravagant
giving; neither should it be for UNI
wise or belt straining eating.
The Puritans in their backward
leaning Were opposed to merriment
and feasting on this greatest of
Holy-days.
1t is quite possible that we in the
year of our Lord 1928 are taking the
opposite extreme. We are told that
the angels sang peace On Earth
and Goodwin Toward Men" This
means what it says! We are quite
few miles away from its universal
observance.
Some parents (not in your city,
of course,) vie with each other to see
which can lavish the most presents
on their children.
Some adults (same as above) in

WHERE OLD PARTIES DIFFER

Men talk and editors write of the
similarity of the two old political
parties, and they are much alike in
some respects; but one difference
is made vivid by comparing the sur
plus of 1923 with the deficit of

SILVER AND GOLD HAVE /
NONE"
Gold and frankincense and myrrh
Were the gifts the wise men
brought.
But the shepherds only offered
praise
When the newborn Christ they
sought.
The wise men came with caravan
Of stately pomp and show;
King Herod called them to the
throne
His council to bestow.
The shepherds had no caravan
Their crooks alone they bore;
They made their pilgrimage afoot,
No costly robes they wore.
The wise men must have felt
constrained
Within the stables gloom,
AS with their stately retinue
They filled the lowly room.
The shepherds were at friendly
ease
Within the hangers walls,
And felt the welcome in the eyes
OF sheep within the stalls.
I think the Christ Child must
have smiled
To see their friendly eyes;
And Mary glowed with joy to see
The homage mothers prize.
I love to think one shepherd there
More jovial than the rest,
Made grimaces to start the mirth
OF Jesus with a jest.
| think one reached a calloused
hand
To test the Christ Child's clasp,
And felt his brawny finger caught
Within His clinging grasp.
Another must have prophesied
He'd make a husky lad
AS carpenter to learn the trade,
And be help to Dad.
The wise men laid no lasting
stamp
Upon the Christ Child's heart,
But from the lowly shepherds
He learned His tragic part.
For on His mission in the world
He always loved to say
That He was Shepherd of the
Flock
To guide men to the Way.

In the state of Pennsylvania there
) little village where there are
twenty-five voters. A woman was
ecently elected constable there with
8 of those votes. The name of the
illage is "Seldom Seem"
Because she is seldom seen, this
emale constable evidently figures
he ought to be heard. So she has
roken into print with the husky
hreat that she is going to "clean
p" Seldom Seen of its wickedness.
Go ahead, sister, and see if we
are!
Now everybody be quiet and list
