Post-Holiday Reflections ;. '. At the risk of the retort that we may be getting old and behind tbe times, it seems to us that too much stimu-laition, too much artificiality, is developing in the way we celebrate our Christinas., and New Years now.

Possibly ve have been too carefree, too inclined to indulging our own desires and our own inclinations. At the sarne time, it is 3 duty for us all, a more important duty than ever, to radiate true happiness and ;jnojraJ confidence so that our morale may be maintained. W u Undoubtedly, many of us need more discipline. Our jtbjlj'ty to impose self-discipline is one of the tests of democracy, The alternative may be dictatorship or our national disappearance. - - . These are thoughts that the season just past has brought to our minds. We pass them on for what they are worth.
