Christmas Again Yet A Long Way To Go. , It is Christmas again and we once more try to get a Christ mas spirit of simplicity brotherhood, goodwill and pence. Wo succeed hut moderatelybecausc we have not evolved far, spirit-i ually, since the Christian era commenced. i?till wedo the best we can. We live according to our training, our impulses air.l onr.ius. Must .of us live but poorly, yet we are evolving. Tho vvrirlu'is improving and we are showing a spirit of tolerance which two thousand years ago would have been' impossible. .A Little Child Shall Lead Them. As we ponder on the first Christmas and its effect on ourselves and on the world, we have to acknowledge that Uie prophesy, "A little child shall lead them" is gradually coming true. For the next few days we shall be ruled by the child of Bethlehem. Ve forget our commercialism, our drudgery, our pettiness and revel in the spirit of childhood, the spirit of the perfect home. In spile of much that is amiss in our present day tendencies, we find that the spirit of the manager of Bethlehem i formulating our motive. and guiding our actions. The spirit whicli comes over us at Christmas is entering more and more into the life of the rest of the year. There is n leaven tag effect which by a process of permeation works through the whole people, spreading out to the world af large. Taking Stock Of Our Position. At the end of the year we take slock. We examine into the financial condition. We note improvements made and oe where we have fallen down on the job. We set out anew in a commercial way and decide on new policies. That is the annual event, the settling tip day. hue it is not suggested that Christmas should be spoiled by grieving over our shortcomings or bemoaning our lack of achievement along spiritual lines, we cannot but be influenced by the season to wonder if there has been any .spiritual improve ment since a year ago. It makes us wonder whether The Chrint mas season nas oeen oi any jie.iiem. nue uie warm as a whole is making progress we wonder if we are among the pro-., grestiive elements. . Christmas is the season of kimlness. the season of joy. Ihe .season of peace and goodwill. Let joy be oncoii fined, but let us not forgel that there j no real joy which i wholly apart from the wide spirit of joyoiisne-s affecting the whole eoinmunhV No person can really be joyful without sharing it with those around. Only a devil can ftad enjoyment while 4Juse around suffer. Make The Little Children Happy. This then is the child reason, the time when little children are made happy and grown people become little children. At that season we get down on the floor and romp with Ihe youngsters and help them In enjoy themselves. Bv giving jov we gc! it. There is nothing new in this. The pursuit of happiiie get nowhere unless it is in giving pleasure to others. The old adage repeated in the good book by tine who kne tlud "it is more blessed to, give than to receive" is as true today a ever it was. The mot precious thing to give is the personal help hi make others happy. A gift of money or goods is but a poor gift, although often desirable. II is a sort of Mihlitulc ti. Th real, jnt is giving oneself. Lumber Brick Cement Lime Plaster Stock your winter's supply 01 Nanaimo-Welling-ton Coal now Albert & McCaffery, Ltd.
