AS ALWAYS, CHRISTMAS WILL
SURVIVE ADVERSELY "
CBy BRUCE CATTON)

BY BRUCE tAl1OED
The outlook for peace on earth and for
good will toward men is probably darker
this Christmas than on any Christmas since
the end of the World War No one needs
TO be reminded that the world is moving
rapidly in the direction of a new war, that
bitter fighting RACES in Spain and emma,
and that the very opposite of good Will Is
enshrined as fundamental principle by
some of the worlds greatest nations, ..
Yet this is not at all the same as to say
that we need to despair. The world may
bezsadly out of tune with Christmas; yet
those who believe in the. Christmas mes
sage, and look ahead to the day when it
shall exert a stronger influence in. the
hearts of men than it now exerts, have all
the more reason for taking new hope
and a new courage. 49,
For it is of the essence of the great
Christmas story that it will survive any ad-
versity. This poor earth has faced dark
days aplenty, since that miracle of the star
OVER Judea, and has lived through periods
inlwhich it seemed as if the last hope for
reign of peace and good will had vanished
utterly; yet the Christmas story lives on,
forever reminding in mems hearts the
flame that shall some day give us light to
build on this earth the city of God.
And it is by our faith in the certain ar
rifaf of that day-by our faith, in other
words, that there are values above and be-
yond those of the distracted, troubfe-torn
present, values which no war lord can kill
and no pogrom or blood-purge can tarnish
that we must get on with the business of
living. rnr 'c .'",--.
For we don't live by bread alone, and
the rough road through life must be light
ed by belief in things which transcend
the trials and defeats of everyday exist
ertce. We have to believe that the verdicts
of the material world are not final, that
man lives for destiny that is beyond and
above anything which happens to him on
earth, that somewhere and somehow there
is force greater than We are which works
silently and eternally to help US attain our
ideals .... 1850.
1T is easy to lose that belief-temporar-
lily, at least. The demands which life makes
on us don't often leave much time for cuf-
ti3ation of the things of the spirit. Unless
we can occasionally get in touch with some
outside source of strength and confidence,
we are all too likely to suffer the deep dis.
coaragement that comes when faith is at
an ebb. 49, 30. .sE.," - -
Christmas gives us that faith, and re-
news it perennially. The spirit which in
fuses every family'circle, when the Christ
mas tree is alight and the sound of the old
carols rings in the crisp air outside, is some
thing that eannot die. In the darkest hours
itshines Ikea beacon light along the hard
road the race must travel; by the vision il
gives us and by the faith it inspires we car
go ahead with courage and good hearts.

CAUSE AND EFFECT

A reader writes a newspaper,
"Om gravest danger is not that
we have a few INSCRIPTIONS poll
ticians either in or out of office,
but because we have so many I'M
sophisticated and unstable vot-
ers." 5000
Yes. But the reason we have so
many INSCRIPTIONS politicians IN
and out of office is that we have
so many uniformed, unlnterest-
ed, unreliable voters.

Asked to Vote eyes"
On Forestry Amendment.

The forestry commission, composed Of
three members from the senate and
three from the house, together with
the state conservation commissioner, at
their meeting last week adopted reSo-
luton asking all voters to vote yes"
on the important forestry amendment
to the constitution which is to be num-
Der one on the ballot.
That the amendment is nonpartisan
in nature is indicated by the fact that
the last five legislatures have submitted
it to the voters. The commission is I'M
animouS in urging its passage and asks
the conservation department to carry
on an educational campaign for favor
able vote at the November election.
Members of the commission are SEN
atorS M. R. eastman, Val INN, and II.
A. Bridgeman, and Representatives v.
Lockwood, Gustaf Erickson and Albert
G.. LieSke. Conservation Commissioner
Herman c. Wenzel is chairman of the
group.
Passage of the amendment will per-
NIT the state to exchange lands with
the federal government, thus consolida-
ting holdings in both state and ma
tional forests, and in addition will per-
NIT the state to exchange lands with
private owners. The private owner ex-
change will permit isolated settlers to
relocate on lands in settled areas, there
by getting the benefits of schools, roads
and other public services.

Tri-State Forestry
Conference Proposed.

Pointing out the common forestry
problems of Minnesota, Wisconsin and
Michigan, Governor Elmer A. Benson
has invited these two neighboring
states to participate in tri-state
forestry and land use conference.
Representatives of conservation depart
ments, state planning boards and agri-
cultural agencies, as well as farmers,
sportSmen, labor and other private or
CARNATIONS are invited to attend.
While the date and place of the
meeting has not yet been set, it is
suggested that it be held in Minnesota
during the latter part of April or early
in May. The Minnesota Interim For
estry Commission, as well as Herman
Wenzel, conservation commissioner, are
all heartily in accord with the pro-
posed meeting. The meeting Is called
at the suggestion of President Roose-
welt, who in his message to Congress
on March IA, called attention to the
national forestry problem and urged
the adoption of an adequate forest pro-
gram.

with a few remarks; Robert Carlson for
the Boy Scout troop; Miss zella Richter
for the North Star Guild; Mrs. w. c..
Carlson for the Ladies Aid, and James
I. Laing for the board of trustees, on
which Mr.. Berg also spoke.
The meeting decided on budget
of S4,100 for the ensuing fiscal year
ending the last week in March, 1889.
Con G.. Haugen was elected as trustee
for two years, while James 1. Laing,
E. w. Hanson, Ben S. Richards, B. o..
Strachan and Alex bakers were re-
elected to the church board.
The reports all indicated the efficient
activity of the Ladies Aid and that
this, body was the money-getter for the
institution. Barring a rather small
amount due the Church Extension
Board as a balance on the church
building, the reports showed the church
in a good financial condition and the
debt probably to be cleaned up by the
end of the fiscal year.

the icy temperature causes instant
