WHY NOT TRY THIS?
THE great last-minute Christina

rush will soon be on.
How few of us ever stop to
think what the Christmas season
means to millions of people in this
country-the postal workers, the
clerks and the delivery men. For
them it is a season of hard work
fatiguing in the extreme. Many of
them will work Is hours a day.
And all because so many OF us
put off buying and mailing those
Christmas presents until the
eleventh hour. You will find it
much more satisfactory to do your
Christmas shopping and mailing
early and you will be making
Christmas more of a season of JOY
than drudgery for millions OF
your neighbors.

WRITE 1T CHRISTMAS

At this season of the year the
habit of writing the word Christ
mas" with an x presents itself
with persistence that is worthy of
a better cause. There are many rea-
sons whey the style 'sXmas" should
be banned, among them the sign
x is used by illiterate persons be-
cause they cannot write their own
names, that it is voiceless letter
that is, it has to borrow the
sound of other letters to make it
self heard land that it is incorrect
if regarded as the sign of the
cross, and inappropriate to connec.
the thought of the cross with the
joy of the Christmas season. This
mark of indifference, ignorance
and suffering no longer should
find place in the vocabulary Of the
educated person.

Well this last one in London was
the biggest one in a long time, for
the unrest was the biggest. Con-
ferences are always in proportion
to public discord.
The King made a public speech
to EN- just like he did for the ma
tions at the Disarmament Confer
ence last January. You know those
English are smart, they know how
to handle more different kinds of
people than anybody. Now we cant
do that, that's why we are no good
as Colonizers. But Britain can go
anywhere and they got all the
pomp and glory that most natives
like. Then they are smart enough
to always make them think they
are doing part of the management
of the country themselves. When
as matter of fact they won't be
doing anything, but they can be
made to look like it.

India is full of casts. They got
