This is the season of festivity and good cheer when every heart glows and expands .with the thought of making somebody happy. Christmas brings us nearest to Him whose gos pel of peace and good will we pro fess. Never has mankind needed spiritual comfort and faith more than today. To a world destroying itself with hatred and famine comes Christ mas with its promise of peace and good wjll. ' Let us paue in our holiday round of pleasures, and consider' whethei we are doing our bit to bring about the fulfilment of this promise, and make this a saner, brighter world. If we- have a glimmering of the Christ-spirit in our consciousness, we shall desire to see His teachings substantiated upon earth. The test of Christianity is a wise and under standing heart. Sympathy is the greatest asset in the cultivation of a friendlier and more prosperous world.. It is the best cure for industrial depression, unemployment and strife. In our affairs we need the human touch and the spirit of Christmas kindness. We are too apt to leave out of our cal culations this spiritual force.

Attorney Looks Like Santa Claw to Muny Court Attaches To those receiving their salaries on the first and 15th of the month, last week was pay week. But to the personnel of the municipal court. Judge George Holmes, A. E. Baldwin and R. W. Patrick; and first and second clerks, William B. Whrtehorn and Ruth Robertson, respectively, it was just another week. And Christmas but a week away! The Muny payroll for the half month is $450. On December 1 as sets stood at exactly $27679. Yesterday Dana B. YanDusen, chy attorney, looked tip the law, which provides that even with a lero exchequer the judges and their help shall not suffer, quoth he. The pay will be forthcoming this week. Three judges and two clerks will (resume their Christmas shopping. riess and labor stands the human be ing, working, loving, desiring, suf fering. Let us, then, give a thought to the man and woman behind the machine the toiling multitudes with hammer, brush and plow. Remember that Christ Himself was a carpenter, and His friends were bondsmen, fishermen and tentmakers. How much happier wc shall be if we will only be all good friends together, scrap ping all snobbishness and all dis tinctions of race, color, class and creed! Then will the20th century be the golden age of the world, and Christmas will be Christmas indeed. The future is full of immense pos sibilities of good, and . through the spirit of brotherhood they shall be realized. Failure to foster this siprit can lead only to world wide disaster. We are all bound together. As St. Paul pointed out in his epistle to the Corinthians. '"we are members one of another. If a member suffers, all the meml'ers suffer." This is equally true of all social and economic" Tela tions. The strong members cannot afford to ride in glittering chariots of success over the broken fragments of their weaker brothers. Let us work all together to make the most of the glorious opportunities that nature and science have placed within our reach. Then shall we all enjoy greater blessings than our fathers dreamed of possessing comfort and happiness foundeji upon work, useful work and comradeship. Let us re solve, therefore, to play the game of life fair and square, and poverty, famine, strikes and wars will disap pear as the mist before the rising sun at break of day. fallen I (slU tv Fifth Member in Family Named Coburg Postmaster Red Oak, la., Dec. 19.

This was today's report, both on the second explosion against which .Wall Street had been warned, and the government s in vesication of the 1920 blast. Lower Manhattan apparently failed to take seriously letters mailed to brokers, predicting that by night fall skyscrapers within a five block radius of the stock exchange would be laid low. Clerks appeared concerned only with getting to work on time. J. P. Morgan, who was supposed to be the chief object of the plot, arrived un attended at his office at his regular hour. The usual noon day crowd at Wall, Broad and Nassau streets seemed greater if anything, for New York is a city of the curious. True, a few more guards could be seen and the special prerogative of Santa Clans to secrecy was violated as suspicious looking Christmas packages were searched. William J. Burns, chief of the bureau of investigation of the De partment of Justice, was still here awaiting cabled reports from War saw concerning the arrest of Wolfe Linden fcld. alleged acquaintance of Lenine, in connection with the 1920 explosion.

Xliere Before Moses Mouse could jump she clapped, a. paw down on him. were gay banquets in Mrs. Green's pantry, at midnight. And among those present there was no one that had a better time than tat Mr. Moses Mouse. He was always the life of the party. He made jokes about Miss Snooper as he called Miss Kitty Cat. And nobody laughed at them harder than he. With every night that passed, Moses Mouse grew still merrier. Some of his companions even claimed that they could scarcely eat, he made them giggle so violently. un the fourth night of Miss Kitty s absence, and at the fourth banquet, Mr. Moses Mouse balanced a bit of cheese on the end of his (nose, ex claiming at the same time, -"What a pity it is that Miss Snooper isn't here! How I'd like to offer her this delicious tid-bit!" To his great surprise, none of his friends laughed. "Look out, Moses!" Mrs. Mouse cried the next moment. "Don't worry, my dear!" said he. "I shan't lose this' fjiice .piece of cheese. If I drop it I can find it again. But I'm not going to drop it. I've practiced this trick a good many times. It's too bad Miss Snooper isn't here to see it." Still nobody even snickered though Moses himself would have had he not been afraid of joggling the cheese off the end of his nose. He thought the silence very strange. And removing his , eyes from the cheese, which he had been watching closely (though it made him look cross-eyed) he took a quick glance about him. Everybody had vanished. "Ha!" sa'id Moses Mouse to him self. "They're playing a trick on me. They're hiding." And he promptly lost his temper. Much as he loved to cut capers and play tricks on oth ers, Moses never liked to have any one get a laugh on him. And now he gave a sort of snort, because he was angry. ' Thereupon the bit of cheese fell off Moses' nose and rolled behind him on the pantry floor. He turned to get it, only to find himself face to face with Miss Snooper herself; for Miss Kitty Cat was home again. Before Moses Mouse could jump she clapped a paw down on him. And there he was a prisoner I "Well, well!" cried Miss Kitty Cat. "Aren't you glad to see me? You were just wishing I was here." Moses Mouse didn't wet glad not the least bit! He struggled his hardest to get away. But Miss Kitty hadn't the slightest trouble holding him, with only one paw, too. "Now that I'm here," she said to him, "don't you want to balance that scrap of cheese on your hose once more, and offer it to me?" Since Miss Kitty caught him," Moses hadn't said anything that she could understand. . He had made only a few squeaks of fright. Now, however, he managed to gasp, "Yes! Just let me go a moment! I can't pick up the cheese while you're crushing me against this pantry floor." (Copyright, 1921, by Metropolitan News ' paper Service.) Pipe Lit Near Gas; Man's Trousers Burn Red Oak, la., Dec. 19.
