Monday, Dec. 38, 1031 HAPPY CHRISTMAS Most people spent a happy Christmas. In a good many cases the festivities were curtailed very considerably but with others there was no change from the oidinary yule-tide celebrations they have held in the past Possibly the worst time was that of the families affected by the recent shutdown of city relief employment. They found themselves in the predicament of having to conserve every cent because of the possibility of not being able to get any more. A few of the local merchants criticized tVt city council for announcing the shutdown just a few d.ys before the holiday and thus interfering with the Christmas business, j Most of the men affected, however, appreciated being told : in'time so that they might not spend money needlessly which afterwards would be so badly required. i KOSE TO THE OCCASION People who have not been badly affected by the depression, this year rose to the occasion well and saw thac none in the city went without Christmas things. Some churches and other organizations looked after their own people while the Salvation Army got much better suppor; than ever in the past They did excellent work, indicating that the people trusted them to handle the funds to the Lest advantage. We can assure those who gave the money for groceries that there were dorens of people made happy who otherwise would have had a cold Christmas. On behalf of the contributors we thank the Salvation Army for acting as their acrents and doing so well a work which was so necessary at the holiday season. The Letter Box APPRECIATION Editor.

A WEEKLY SERMON Christmas and After Not Necessary That Christmas 'a'ccling Should lie Confined to Christmas Season Bv Very Rev. J. B. Gibson. Dean of St. Andrew's Cathedral) The Wheel of Time has made another revolution and j Christmas Day, 1931 is numbered with the past. But it is jnot necessary that the Christmas feeling (I almost wrote i "spirit" but that is liable to misinterpretation) should be (confined to the Christmas Season.

There was the-little Babe, so Innocent, with such, marvellous powers of growth, pos-j , swing Intellectual and spiritual , ; capacities and there were the j beasts, so stupid, so satisfied and 'content with the commonplace. That is a tree representation of the . world as man has ever found it. For ours is a strange world with! ' the oddest contradictions and an-' ' tagcnlsms. The late Studdard Kennedy said that "the world has a ! face as ugly as sin and as beautiful ' as an angel, as cruel as the sea and as tender as a woman. It Is a world of stars and snakes, of viojfts and vermin, of laughter and tears, of peace and pain, of Joy and sorrow.". Yes. in the world we see the Babe and in the world we see the beast , goodness and evil within the same stable stall. j And when we think of our own I lives how often are our hearts torn t by contradictions' 6f good and evil jof the Babe and tjie beasts? We are , stirred at timet, by Impulses of llb-jeral generosity and we are. at othr (ers given to narrow, petty crttle-flsms and Judgments. We know how hard and how difficult life Is. We ' arc aware that much is hidden from ' our knowledge and that, if wc knew all the 'circumsuncos in a given 'case, very likely our sympathy would be aroused rather than our : condemnation.
