DEMOCRATS AWAIT CALL.

Thursday night Democratic leaders from all over the nation will gather in Washington in honor of Of the Dartys greatest patron saints-Andrew Jackson Tho first national gatherings of it's kind since the closing days of the Wilson regime party men all the coun- try await it with than ordinary interest. Despite the fact that four years ago next Fall the Democratic candidates were buried in the national election under landslide Of 100000 votes, the partys chances for a comeback next Fall are not considered negligible.
 Around the speakers table there will be seat ed many who must be depended upon for lead ership in the campaign. Some there will be whose names will be discussed more or less seriously as the standard bearer. In what man ner will they, leaders and possible candidates, respond to the needs of their party? Are they wise as Jefferson, the founder, wise?, and as tolerant and broad-visioned he? Is there among them one, more, with the stern integrity and unfaltering courage of the great man whom they seek to honor by their assem- blaze?
 For there is very great need for these attri- butes if their party, the party of Jefferson and Jackson of Cleveland and Wilson. is to be served well and efficiently. Factionalism besets it and faint-hearted partisans cry for silence. Intoler- ance and bigotry march hand in hand to keep it : from standing up in it's own right and declaring itself If it is to restore itself to the high plane of party organization it once held so proudly it must wipe out schisms, hearten the weak or forget them, rebuke intolerance and cast out the bigots It must recognize the issues and take it's position boldly upon them To be true to the ideals of it's founders it can pursue no other course nor can it hope to go before the elec- torate in 1928 asking for support on any other basis
 This Jackson Day banquet, the first of its kind in eight years, has great opportunity. It can sound the keynote of party harmony and point the way to a constructive program that will not only revive the rank and file of party men. but will command the wholesome respect of the country at large If it fails to accomplish this if it panders to the intolerant to the bgot becomes faint hearted with the timid no matter what kind of candidate the party chooses for its standard bearer in the coming campaign, 1t will wage a futile fight and further disntegrate.

Once again we are taken back in
spirit to the little stable at Bethlehem
and there with the eyes of faith see
our God in the form of little Babe.
Of all the seasons in the year Christ
mas is always the brightest and most
gladstone. Though there be cold in
the air, and snow and frost under
our feet, there is always warm sum
shine in our hearts.
Christmas is worlds-wide festival
in which every nation of the earth
participates. Though unannounced by
civic proclamations it is forgotten by
no one. 1t is eagerly expected by all;
it is heartily enjoyed while it lasts,
and leaves after it sweet religious
memories. 1t returns each year fresh
and fragrant as the newborn flowers
of spring.

GLORY to God in the Highest and on

Republics. There is hope in this that
good will is being talked of, thought
of and in some manner sought in
international, industrial and social re-
lations. 1t is recognized that good will
is a prime condition of peace.
In its true and highest sense, good
will is charity: virtue by which we,
love God above all for His sake and
our neighbor as ourselves for the
love of God.
There is need for good will, the
good will of which the herald angels
sang on the first Christmas morn:

and yet today international relations

political relations we have had most
convincing demonstration during re-
cent months Of the necessity of cult
waiting. and practicing good will.
Christmas is time for us all
to examine our consciences and ask
ourselves if our lives during the past
year have been an exempification Of
harmony peave and good will which
Christ came on earth to establish.
If so let us thank GOD If we are
