THE CHRISTMAS OFgTHE CLEAN
SLATE — ,
The Chinese, as you doubtless know,
have a fine way of signalizing New
Year's their greatest holiday of the
year, by paying every Mil wMvh they
owe, Omt they may start the New Tear
with a clean slate.
I have a friend who thinks the Chi-
nese can teach us something in the
way of celebration and she has bor-
rowed for our greatest day the Chinese
idea of the clean slate.
Only she carries it farther than just
the paying of bills.
First She Pays All Bills
She sets aside an evening a, week
for the last three or four weeks be-
fore Christmas for this celebration. In
the first place she pays every bill. ,

END OF HATING
My heart is fall of Joy and mirth,
I do not hale a soul on earth.
Before the armistice waa signed,
hate of the Teuton filled my mind;!
I hated everything that bore the
Gorman trade mark, more and
more. Alas, the hate I used to feel,
before and after every meal! And
when to bed I journeyed late. Id
liA awake and hate and hate! I
thought that I should never live
to see the time when I’d forgive
the cruel Hun of evil works, the
Bulgars and the beastly Turks I
don’t forgive them even yet; I
won’t make any Teut my pet, or
carrv lilies, pure and pale, to any
Hun who is in jgil. My aunt'shall
not become the bride of any Turk
with sallow hide I'm willing that
the Turk and Hun may have for-
giveness— when it's won; but years
must pass in solemn train before
they can our trust regain Now I
don’t hate them any more; I’ve
found that hatred is a bore. The
tyrant's taken in his sign, be goes;
his way and I go mine; and if I
hated him by day. and hating
passed.the night away, I couldn't
add rfn ounce. I trow, to that huge

WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?
THE WORLD IM CONVALESCING
The crisis is over, the fever of war
has abated, but time- and care are
neded to heal the scars of four year's
agony. Broken men, broken hearts,
broken spirits must be mended. Homes
and hearths mustwe restored and fami-
lies reunited. Slowly the sick xvorld
will recover but all the while the Red
Cross must stand guard to' prevent a
relapse into misery. Gradually the ar-
mies will be dispersed, but the army of_

Her Old Friend Letters
Next she writes v...-. ----- -----
old friend letters. Most of us have
gathered as we passed through the
years a collection of absentee friend-
ships. And these friends whom we"
have "loved long since and lost axVhile’
not by death but by life, are often
full as dear to us as those we see
every daV. To all such, whether she
is in the habit of holding a regular
correspondence with them or not this
woman writes > Christmas letter. Not
just a line of greeting, but news of
how her friends interests prosper. She
is fortunate enopgh to use a typewriter

The Kind Word We Are Awnys Going
To Nay Somebody
And lastly she thinks the Christmas
season the best opportunity in the
world to send a line of appreciation
and encouragement to the story writer
whose art she appreciates, the minor
poet who expressed just her own inex-
pressible thoughts, the minister whose
sermon went straight past the portals ]
and into her heart.

His voice was heard and his influenct.

The manager and two of the met) con-
nected with the mechanical force have
been ill. One poor fellow died from
the disease and the-others are still
unable to be back. Two of the girls
hre still out and the balance of the
force are working double time and
short handed to give the people the
beat service possible. Girls who are
supposed to work only in daytime
have had to double up and work
nights as well as days and the same
force that has to attend to the board
has been reduced half while the work
has been doubled. In the face of all
this trouble the people complain of
the service. Loafer is no bettAr than
the rest. He has snorted and cavort-
ed arid accused them of lying down
on the job and just refusing to give
him the number when he wanted it in
a hurry—never stopped to think that
those girls were working under dif-

Navy Equal to Any Country's
Urged tor America by Badger
WASHINGTON, Dec. 13.—A navy for
America, equal to Great Britain's or any
other country’s Is urged by Adtyiiral
Badger in a statement to the House
Naval Affairs committee, asking that
tjje program be completed by 1925 with
appropriations by Congress to mako it
possible. The board, he said, believes
that under existing world conditions
and those likely to obtain in the near
future the United States navy should
continue steadily to increase and that
ultimately it should be equal to the
most powerful maintained by any oth-
er nation of the world, this to be at-
tained not later than 1925.
The great naval lesson of the xvaf,
Admiral Badger said, has been that a
nation possessing the most powerful
navy was able ir! a few weeks to drive
the German merchant flag from the
seas and to keep open her own trade
routes, altho Germany had when
war began the second
world. The blockade. '
was unable to breNk, W^s. he said,
the greatest contributing chuse of Ger-
many’s ultimate collapse.
Completion of 3-year building pro-
gram authorized in 1916 was urged by
the Admiral. Work on the six battle-
ships, six battle 'cruisers, two scout
cruisers, nine fleet submarines, twe
destroyer tenders and one fleet sub-
marine'<ender has not yet been be-
gun and the lack of these ships, had
the United States been fighting alone,
would have been fatal.
The weather man has been flirting
with the sensibilities of the people and
the fanner is frowning again because
the fields are so muddy that they can-
not pasture the cows The man with
hogs who has killed them is haxing a
series of pink fits for fear he is going
to lose his meat. The man with hogs
Who has not killed them is scared stiff
for fear the weather will not get right.
In the meantime that weather person
is going right along guessing ami hit-
ting it about one time in si«. The rest
of the time you do your own guessing
and have the satisfaction of knowing
that you hit it as often as the 'veath-
