This is the joyous Yulelide, and we have ninny reasous for being hnppy and gay. Whatever small misfortunes may be ours they are negligible corn pared to those' o f others. Most o f us will be kindly remembered on that day. We will take a day o f f to prt pare for a sumptuous feed. We will nave many loved ones about us, our stomachs will be filled and there will be no business cares for the day Many o f the children will be back m the home nest for the day. The sceue could hardly be better laid for a j o y ous time. This is the selfish i>oint o f view and we all are entitled to a lertain amount o f selfish enjoyment. All can not have as much o f that kind o f joy as they are as much entitled to as the rest o f us are. That g.»«** others a chance to enjoy the greatest happiness on earth, that o f bring jo y to others. Many are on sick beds. A few words o f cheer may bo all that is needed Many may have barely enough for comfort. They will not buy the deli eacies that add so much to u Christmas feast. There is a way that others can get these delicacies to them. Others may not have even sufficient of the necessities o f life. We might plcas> our own stomachs, as well as those o f the needy, b y div iding with them th' fo o d with which we might otherwise gorge ourselves. We are told that those- dispensing food supplies in Armenia and other countries have to decide wrhich chil dren they, will let die and which they will supply with the food to keep body and soul together What is there more ap|>ealiiig to the human heart than the pinched face o f a child peering from rags which hardly keep ont the c Id f Life is ahead of them if they can have only a part o f that o f which we have so much. In our own country, in our own state, in our own county, in our own city, in our own neighborhood, there The Best Christmas Loaf comes from Bcndbr’s bakery Of course it’s just as good any other time as at Christmas time, but it seems to taste even better on the great holiday.

He handles without gloves the poll ticiun who wants the reporter to say about him things he wouldn't any about himself, but who probably would object to a statement telling enactly what the reporter had in mind. He tells in a way to warm the cockles o f any reporter's heart o f how he “ sat upon a pompous individual who first b*grudgingly granted thT reporter five minutes but soon was begging him to stay as long as he wished. He takes a uoat little shot at the person who wants to call his neighbors names o f his own manufacture but wishes the newspaper to assume the responsibility. l.ocklcy overlooked one important person, the one who insists on getting editorial expression into his uows items N o rept“ able newspaper permits editorial exprcssivu in its news col utuus. not even by the editor, except bv quoting some other person, yet there is hardly a week that the editor does uot roil som eone's temper bv ed itmg copy in such a manner is to m..kc it tell the news without being an expression o f opinion by the editor. If the editor should print ull copy exactly as furnished, the queen s English would be mutilated beyond recognition and the editor would be ad vocating a few hundred different ways o f saving souls, a few million ways o f keeping the country from go mg to the dcmnition bow wows, would b< advocating the policies o f every po litical party, would be a sup|airter o f every ism on the face o f the earth and an exponent o f every religious creed. And the funny part o f it all is that many o f those who take umbrage at the editor for refusing to accept nil these responsibilities is himself too ra-'dest J i to make the statement over his own name. The editor o ffe rs to all the same op|*>rtunity that the editor himself has for standing responsible for his own beliefs, for his own opin inns, but some h a v e n ’t the nerve, the moral stamina to do themselves what they usk the editor to do. It is all very amusing, but the ed itor has got to have something to re lieve the load which he iarries. Then there is another important f e l low Brother Lockle y overlooks: the fellow who neglects to tell the pirre o f news the paper would have been nnx ions to get possibly only a little per sonal, possibly only a little society item, but an item just as im|M>rtunt to those concerned as many o f the big items in the papier.
