I During the past year, .events over,
I' which we have had no control have
plunged the world into a frightful
conflict. The Empire is fighting for
Its very existence, but I feel that
we will win because our cause is
just. I would suggest that it is our

emerge a better world, a world

GOOD WILL
"On Earth peace, good will to men," the Authorized
Version reports the angelic message received by the won-
I .ring Shepherds.
"On Earth peace to men of good will," reports the
''"vised Version, supported by modern scholarship, which
-a the benefit of earlier manuscripts.
Are we men and women and children of good will?
If we are, then the peace message, borne on celestial
. music, was also for us. Although first heard by men humble
in station, the message belongs to all mankind who will re-
eive it
Essentially, then, Christmas is of the heart, and we
 observe it when we are trying to enlarge the sum of
j gladness in our neighborhood. And our neighbor, as Christ
I made plain in his Parable of the Good Samaritan, is anyone who needs us.
fl     Christmas Cheer is a community manifestation of this
spirit in Nelson and District
]■     This Ib the day when the lonely should be gathered in
• and be made members of some home circle.'
And thoughts of many will be in the training camps,
lor where one's treasure is, there will one's heart be also.
p Colored as our observance of Christmas must be by
'the World events that surround us, and of which we are a
I part, we can make this, in our several spheres of move-
' ment, a day of good will toward all with whom we have

MONSTROSITY
We read that Herr Hitler has gone up to his fortress
,in snowy Berchtesgaden to spend Christmas.
JR      The man who has laid the present horror upon the
! ,World, who has wrested one small Nation after another
'from peaceful existence and left it a hollow and suffering
I shell, who has been the cause of the taking of life in every
quarter of the Globe and on every sea, whose toll of misery
, will extend to scores of millions before the War has ended,
is observing Christmas.

NTIMENT OF
RISTMAS
—it devout New England pretch-
-poet, Phillips Brooks, caught the
eutiful sentiment of Christmas,
id Indited a hymn which hu since
:ome beloved. The tenderly im-
livt tint vene retdi:
"0 little town of Bethlehem,
How ttlll we ue thee lie;
Above, thy deep ud dreamiest
ileep    '
hi silent itan go by;
et in thy dtrk streets ihlneth
tvtrlttting Light;
hopu md fun ot ill tht
yun
mtt in thee tonight"
Yet, the hopu which hid been
gtertained by consecrated Bibical
aracten, during the preceding
■nturles, met their fulfillment that
ght when "the evertastlng Light"
bone over Bethlehem, and tht
irecious promise ot mankind's tal-
{itlon began to be realized. And to-
iy it it beyond human ability to
easure the beneficent results of
idvent of Jesus nineteen cen-
tries tgo.
At ChrUtmu timt spiritual quel-
'_ ire more clearly recognized
hd valued, and tre expreued to
J greater extent It is not mt-
■rial gifta ln themselvu Ultt count
ut the thoughtfulneu, the loving-
[ndness expressed ln little tokens
f love, the desire to turprUt t
>vi»d one and to impart Joy. Every-
p-o values these signs of love, tnd
seeks to reciprocate by tendering,
in exchange, ipprecittlon ud gratitude. Thui U tht spirit of the
Christ expreued ln loving deeds,
even u the Apostle Ptul urged
upon the Romans; "Let love be
without dissimulation... .'Be kindly affectloned one to another with
brotherly love" (Romans 12:9,10).
The true worth of Christmas lies
not in material gift giving, but in
the deepening ud extending of the
true sense of love between brethren, ind ln a broader answer to the
question, "Who U my neighbor?"
SPLENDOR OF
NATIVITY
Mrs. Eddy writei on _t tubject
of ChrUtmu "Materiil gifta ud
pastimes tend to obliterate the spiritual idea in consciousness, leaving one alone ud without HU

tence she says. "The splendor ot

ChrUtian Science trt grateful for

that a great miny eaiet would be

The time li true ot iputum. It
we wilt until tubercle bedlU trt

When I wu very young I rm
iround with a lot of different
. boyt ind whilt I'll admit I drank
and imoked with them I never
did anything worae; never did
anything that I would be ashamed for my future husband to
know about Then I mat a boy

Of course they don't want him to
marry, u he supports them. The

finds lt euier to let him carry her.
Anyhow they till him full of tales

Dear child, the boy friend whom
you love to much doesn't love you.
If he did love you he wouldn't let

on Chrislmas Day
By Gtrry Cltviltnd Mytn, Ph.D.

Only father ana mother can know
the Joyi thit they leei in observing
little children on Chriitmu
morning.
Onca the glfti ind toyi hive been
opened tnd tried out, there is a lull
when iweeti will be eaten; or quarrels may begin lt there are several
children. Here often end moat of
the family joys for the day.
About the blggeit hazard for the
child it too many iweeti. Wise parents keep them out ot tight or
strictly limit them throughout the
day and following week. As any
parent knows, during tht holidays
there may be more digestive troubles ln the ftmily than ordinarily.
WORK FOR MOTHER
Unfortunately for Mother, Chriitmu Day means feasting, therefore,
a deal of work for her. It is extremely heavy If there It t viiiting
fimily .with little children. Betides
she may be pretty well worn out
after several dayi of getting ready
tor Christmas. Even with the family
alone, the young children itlr up
noises and contusion.
Dad can do much to contribute to
a happy Christmai. Let him persuade each child to put iome toys
away until later or the next day; let
him aasume responsibility for engineering amicable play. When the
younger children grow weary and
irritable, he can calm them by reading to them. Let him go out for a
ride or walk with them. That book
or article which he had planned to
read can wait Other thingi tre

the dishes. Mother needs iome rett

It'i too bad that thli dty ihould put

Informition would bt of vtlue to
tht tnemy. "I went to mike the
point tint I hid no idu Un informition I put in thit letter could bt

He Mid he would not repeit the
ume thing now. He realized the
conveying of iuch informition wu
"objected to by tht luthoritiu."

Ht uld hU iketch wu hutily

TROOP MOVEMENTS   i.
BROADCAST
Everyone knew about the ilrplane base at Eutern passage, acron
the harbor from here, he taid. Likewise, tht Informition regarding
Srobable troopi ulllng datei had
een conveyed to the world ln i
broadcut
Even if lt ihould bt found the
informition in Findlty'i letter wu
prejudicial to the itate, Lovett contended no offence had been committed, beciuse the Intent wu tacking.
It htd been tugguted common
sense should have deterred Findlay
from sending out the information
But he said the preu had publUhed

"And ippirently common tenia

(rom making a broadcast on mat-
ten which it has been sugguted

He suggested there wu not "the
slightest foundation" for any belief Flndlay deliberately aent out
Informition he knew to be harmful. He lubmitted tht arrest of t
mtn like Findliy "wouldn't help
the luthorltlu much." A reprimand
•nd t wtrnlng ihould hive been
enough if objectionable material
wert found ln hU letten.
ACQUITTAL GROUNDS    ,   -
Summing up, Lovett uked for u
acquittal on thue groundi:
1. The Information in the letter
was not likely to prejudice the interesU of the ttate,
2. There wu no intent to do harm.
3. If there wu uy breech of liw,
it wu purely i technical offence."
Fogo, following with- his summation, declared of the Information
in Findlay'i letter: "Why wu he
sending tint type of ituff to Denmirk: it Un't whtt t mm sends to
the girl he'i engaged to marry."
He nid one liwyer hid told him:
"When I wu courting i girl, I didn't

Why had Flndlay tnd tht girl

' for Nazi Children
Born Out of Wedlock
BERLIN, Dec. 24 (AP)-Heinrich
Himmler, hetd ot ill Germtn police, urged the black-uniformed
elite guard to beget children, ln
or out ot wedlock, especially In
wartime, while Rudolf Hess, Hitler'i deputy in pirty iffain, announced the Natl party wu ready
to atand sponsor for uy soldien'
children born out ot wedlock.
Himmler's views, Itld down in
an "order to the entire SS (Elite
Guard) ud police," included, the
declarations:
"Every wtr meini letting of tht
but blood. Mtny a victory of trim
wat at the tame time i devasting
defeat for the nation's vitality.
'Tht indent saying thtt only ht
cu die peacefully who hu toni
tnd children must be translated
Into fact during thU war by the SS.
"Beyond the limits of Bourgeois
lawa and customs which ordinarily
are probably neceuary it can become an exalted task even outalde
of wedlock for Germin, womu
ud girU ot good blood to become
—not frivolously but Imbued with
deepest moral concern—mothen of
children begotten by toldien moving to the front without knowing
whether they will return or die for
the fttherland."
Himmler pledged he would ippoint "ipecltl sponsors" for "ill
children ot good blood born ln or
out ut wedlock whose fithen fell
In the wtr."
The Nazi party's pledge to stand
sponsor wai announced oy Hus in
a letter to an unmarried expectant
mother whose soldier flucee wu
killed ln Polud.

CHICAGO, III. - Thi recent
hubbub raised by the Nitlonil

H lt U the purpoie of the Nitlonil
Leigut .seemingly domintted at thU
JUOGI LANDIS
Ume by the St LouU, Clnelntti
tnd Brooklyn Clubi, to heckle the
Commissioner until he walks out on
tha Job lt U entiUed to make the
effort
But tht mort tht heckling, the
longer Landis may sit on tht throne
to worry his new enemiet. At tor
pushing him off the pedestal lt
hardly tan be done, Ha itUl hu
thit old agreement, ilgned by 13
dubt when he took office, thtt ht
ctn ttick just ibout u long it he
pltasei and that hii Judgment
even If wrong, cin't be questioned,
He oan even expel a League Pruident for Ufe.
The firm iyttem tnd tht working
igreement by which the majors
juggle and retain holdi on pliyers
It iuch ■ complicated process that
not even most of the Big League
ownen undentend it But tome ot
them have been slick enough tu
devise wayi ln which, contrary to
ethics, thty have rounded up en
extensive layout of youthful players. Landis hts etught tome of the
guilty ownen tnd undoubtedly will
chastist a tew more, rulu or no
rulei.
It U euy to figurt out why the
Minor League's Association voted
for tht amendmtnte which tbt Nttiontl Leagut lupported and the
American League and Landis voted
down in tha Joint tession In
Cincinnati.
A HOUSE DIVIDED
The crowd now dominating the
National Leagut has such extensive
Minor League affiliations that lt
can laad the latter. And to proteet
what lt controU in Uie Mlnon the
NaUonal Leagua quite logically
wanted to pass regulationi which
would htvt forced LandU to make
decisions stricUy according to rules
Instead ot hit own Judgment
Whtt Landis may do about making free agenti of baU playen ln
the near future U what worrlei the
chain store disciples. The chain store
in Itself It needed.. It helpt to develop ball pltyen, beciuse the Interested Maion find them and pay
the bill ln the Minora, if necessary,
while Uie player it developing.
In thli way the Mlnon are aided.
But evUt have crept ln u already
proved by the Commissioner's ln-
vestigaUon and he has made decision!, maybe not itricUy iccording to the rules, but on the btslt
of mlstreitment of playen, iuch as
htndictpping their tdvtncement.

A review of the 31 gamei play,
ed ln Nelaon'i "kid hockey"
leagues under the Nelion Amiteur
Hockey Auoclition up to ChrUtmu
shows Ult three competing dubt
weU bunched ln total honon, tnd
the leaguu themselvei not badly
balanced. Six of the nine teami
have already both won and lott
Only ont of tht nine teami U itill
unbeaten, ind only two have not
ytt hid t win, md tht pitying lei-
son U only two weeks old.
Taking tht 31 gamu u thty
itand, without tUowing for differences in number played, the M.R.K.
Hockey Club teami havi between
them had eight wim md one draw;
ind (ht Fairview Athletic Club
teams hava had aix wint. In points,
the comparison would be IllR.K.'l
17 pointe; Panther'a 13: F. A. C.'s 12.
In more detail the M. R. K's havt
4tt Bantam wins, throe Midget wins,
and ona Juvenile win; tht Panther-
Westerners have 4Vi Bantam wini
md two Juvenile wint; md the
F. A. Ct have tour Midgut wins
md two Juvenile wint.
Owing to the mmy gamu crowd-
td into Uie ChrUtmu HoUdtyt, Uie
tint third of Uie ichedule In uch
league wUl probably be completed
before New Year'i. After the ichooli
