Christmas And Xmas The annual combat between Christmas and Xmas has begun once more, In the United States this has been taken so seriously that a. Christmas National Convention has been called to take the X out of Xmas and make the unabbreviated form of the word, standard. Opie L. Shelton, Orangeburg, S. C., Chamber of Commerce Secretary, proposed l. resolution that the accepted form be Christmas. Out of two thousand letters received by him in which his suggestion is discussed, but six ex ress- 0d support for the shortened form,— mas. Clergymen of practically all denominations fav- ored the longer form. "Xmas” began as pedantry. I: ended as care- hlr-or, rather, uncaring-irreverance. That X h Xuus was the Greek letter Chi, the equivalent of the English "Ch," one of the Cross-forms used to signify Christ in the early persecutions of the Christians. Latterly, most of the people who used it didn't know ivl-iat it meant. The shorter form ls going out of fashion. It may be seen occasion- ally but the full form, Christmas, has the over- whelming support. Japan Well Prepared Iapan has frequently been pictured as a country that is near exhaustion, economically and physic- ally, hy rcasou of ltcr costly aggression in China. Mr. llugh Dullun, l3ritish Aliuistcr of Economic Welfare, dcplores the acceptance of any such im- pression and declares that japan is well equipped for a long war. llritziin and -her Allies, he adds, should not cxpect quitl.‘ lTSlllls from any economic prcsstirc z-u this ni-iv (‘lllfllly in the liast.
