However, we shall still get along very nicely, no doubt, and it is well for us to remember that even the half a pound a week is a good deal more than Britons have been getting for a long while now, to say nothing of what the people of stricken Europe may be getting. Thousands of Canadian housewives have been spending hours trudging from store to store in search of a pound of butter. If for no other reason, than to stop this appalling waste of effort the government was justified some system of rationing. The average housewife has never had enough time at her disposal to handle her numerous tasks. To ask her to waste her time shopping for essential commoditiei like butter or eggs js inviting trouble. There is no use disguising the fact that we are steadilv runninc into a tiVht sihintinn in n siikernnHnl 4 1 O lw'--'k'VV Vlttt list of foods. With domestic consumption, plus heavy exports, rapidly overhauling production, shortages such as we have experienced in butter, eggs and in beef, are likely to occur more and more frequently as the War progresses. Under the circumstances rationing must be accepted so that our dwindling supplies will be at least evenly distributed and with a minimum of effort. Without rigid control of distribution, there is no check against hoarding, black markets and the spreading of rumors, any of which may cause serious damage to, home front morale. Hymn Playing Soldiers ... An Ontario regimental band swung past our office yesterday, marching smartly to a military version of "Adeste Fidelis." We had not heard "Come Let Us Adore Him" in march time before but it made a good march and there was something inspiring and significant about it. It is timely and thrilling that here in this country of ours the soldiers can swing along to the march tune of hymn. It suggests that the Christian religion, neglected as it may be, is still accepted' as one of the fundamental principles of our way of- living for the preservation of which we fight. That we can adapt the hymns to march times for our fighting men is indicative of our broad-mindedness the tolerance. of our democracy. There are still psalm-singiqg Cromwells with us and that is well for our side. Christmas Potlach . . . W.

It culminated with the giving of gifts but, in the feastings and carousals that preceded, there were so many abust? that the "all-wise white man" banned the potlatch. How many times have we hearV the smple-minded but nevertheles critical Indian ask what is different in the white man's Christmas? If he stood on Third Avenue these days in front of the government liquor store, he might weil ask. Is it too much to suggest that we might get back, or perhaps, forward, to a Cllristmas which stresses the Spirit of Christmas and not the Spirit of Scotch or Rye?
