TIS CHRISTMAS—
. . . and time to be joy
ful.
Yet many hearts are sad
and lonely because of
war, and of what it means
—loved ones away in dis
tant lands; away from
home working in war
plants; at sea in the Mer
chant Marine; and many
other occupations of war.
In spite of such condi
tions, we should weigh the
effort we are putting forth
against the good resulting
from it, and increase the
effort ever so much more,
that peace will come to the
earth that much sooner.
The world must be rid
of tyrants, and must also
be prepared to fight and
die to protect the peace
loving nations, yet know
ledge of our neighbors and
good-fellowship should be
able to overcome the diffi
culties whiich arise be
tween nations.
A peaceful world in
which peoples of all na
tions could listen to the
words of the angels, sing
ing the praises of the little
Christdhild, whose birth
is celebrated this day, “Juy
to the World,” and “Glory
to God in the Highest, and
on Earth, Peace to men of
Good Will.”

(Hear Santa:
This year I don’t need sleds and skates
And dolls and games and things,
For my Daddy has just sent me

among all peoples.
There are some people
who do not want others to |
be happy and free, but
would rather enslave them,
so that a selfish few might
enjoy some maniacal de
sire for power.
Our boys at Bataan and,
Corregidor fought and died
that we might have Christ
mas forever, and that the
spirit must carry on
through all time.
They meant for us to
continue the fight, al
though we do not believe
in war for war’s sake, we
must carry on to the fin
ish. We must defeat the
forces who are working
against all freedoms.
We can rejoice that the
forces of Good are in the
majority, and that they
will soon bring their ene
mies to justice.
The peoples of the |
world must learn that j
there is room enough for
all to be happy and free,
and to enjoy the liberties
to which they are entitled
according to the laws of
Heaven, and message the
herald angels sing: “Glory
to God in ‘'the Highest, and
on Earth, Peace to Men of
Sood Will.”
