JOY-

But what about the adults' cele- bration of Christmas? In a current publication our eye caught sight of the phrase "A Christian Christmas." It flashed into many minds i.n thought: What a boon it would be to the whole nation, and particularly to our city, if we could have in this year 0!, grace a celebration of Chi1stmas that is really Christian! We found an interesting note in the third volume of Winston Churchill's history of the Second world War. Immediately after "Pcsrl Harbor" had plunged the United states into the titanic struggle he visited President Roosevelt in Washington. The conflict was at a critical stage: the burdens on those two great souls were too heavy for human

midst of his descriptions of their thinkings and doings, Churchill wrote: "The President and I went to church together on Christmas Day, and I found peace in the simple suvice. and enjoyed sing- ing the weli-known hymns, and one, 0 Little Town of Br” L

I had never heard before. certain- iy there was much to forufy the faith of all who believe in the moral government of the uni- verse."

The hymns, such as the beauti- ful one he mentions, deal largely with the wondrous birth, and to this laden spirit they suggested the truth behind the Christmas story. It is that God has interven- ed ln the human conflict on our side. He has entered our nature in the person of His son. and has brought I-us resources to our sup- port. A good God has released His power on behalr of His goodness.

What an anomaly it is to cele- brate by sinful excesses the birth of Him who came to save from sin! Yet riotous induigencas are a problem for every city in the sacred season. Everywhere there is a tendency to transform holy days into holidays. By common consent Christmas is both. The Christmas services express our joy in our Redeemer's coming, and we

brations in our homes. May we not appeal to every hostess to see that in her entertainment every- thing contrary to the true Christ- mas spirit is avoided? There are also hosts, particularly in our hotels, who can do much to guard the saoredness of the season: may we not count on them for a spec- ial effort this year?

Here are certain other features which should characterize "a Christian Christmas."

The season should be marked in every home by giving as well as getting. We should say. giving rather than getting. in view of Jesus' specific instructions on this point. In Luke 8:32-36 He speaks of giving without thought of re- turn as the spirit which should mark His followers. To give in order to receive as much again is the principle governing those who know not the love of God. Noth- ing is more necessary than to teach our young people to contribute to the happiness of others in a time like this, It will multiply their
