DO IT NOW. Why not get your Christmas shop ping done now, hofore tho rush? This Is a question, It Is stated, in the minds of mnny clerks and em ployers nt the present time, nnd It Is Bald that the puhllc ought not to leave this work until the last few dayB before tho great mld-wlnter festival. If nttonded to now It will mean tho saving of ovor-tixed strength on tho part of those who stand he hind' counters, It will moan more satisfaction during the holiday sea son ; It will mean a practical Christ inns gift to thoso who appreciate It and will go toward bringing "peace on earth, good will toward men." During the coming week mnny tire plnnnlug to make their full quota of purchases, and have the task out of the way. Some, It Is Bald, nrc planning this to save themselves; some are going to do it to assist tho wage earner, but whatever tho motive, the action Is being strongly endorsed by all right thinking people who desire to see tho Christmas spirit manifested In a manner that counts greatly.

Twns seven luckless persons Whose brag was "Freedom's brag;" Whoso crimes were never worse 'uns Than eussln' of the flag; Who merely tried to riot About rebelllously Within your city quiet. Oh, Florence by tho son. But nn avenger comoth; There Isn't any doubt. And Oswald's anger hummcth, And you had beslH watch out; The warlike forces gntlier. And shortly there will be Somethln' exciting' rather 'Round Florence by tho sen.

II McKlnstry from Los Angeles to Portland. MoKlustrv hns served only about two years at Los Angeles and bis transfer was not expected, but by reason of his rank ami for other considerations ho was chosen. Lieutenant Colonel McKlnstry will bo uuulo division engineer as well as district offlcor for the entire north west, a position which has been vac ant because of luck of an officer of Tbe Christian Spirit. Christmas Is a good institution, be It examined from any angle. The Christ mas spirit Is one to foster anil encour age. It means unselllshness. charily. peace. liberality, good cneer, an uesir- able traits in themselves and all tend ing to make tbe world a better place. While the Christmas holiday Is a Christian Institution In name, no one religion holds a monopoly of the Christ mas spirit. It Is common to all reli gions. It means a striving to make others happier, mi effort to better con ditions for iniinUliiil, It means sharing your good fortune, no matter how small the portions may be. It is the essence of the (iolilcu Kulc. While one can do much good to oth ers by tln radiation of the Christmas spirit, the greatest good Is dune to one self. No man can bestow a gift, either material or spiritual, on another with out beiielltlug himself, lie must ele vate himself by the exercise of the dilutions tlint Christmas calls forth. mid this elevation must be more or Ic-s permanent. No man can be inm-li ilif recent one day In th" year from uii.it he Is the oilier III! I days. Ho hlcscd be the spirit of ChcM mas! Exercise It during the closing days of December and you can't help hut be the better for it. and you can't help but continue Its benevolent liitlu euces during the mouths that follow.
