THE GREATEST DAY Tomorrow we celebrate Christmas Day, without question the most memorable day of the year. For tomor- * ow, no matter who we are, where we may be, rich or poor, high or low, carries with it memories of Christinas Days Sone by which can never be obliterated by anything which may come to pass. To all tomorrow carries with it memories of our ( Liildhood. To some the memories mean the snow and chill of the eastern states, with the blazing logs in a huge fireplace, over-hung with the stockings of eager children. To others, not so fortunate, the memories take us back to wanner climes, where the white blanket which aids in making Christmas, real Christmas was lacking. But to everyone of us, it brings hack memories of fathers, and mothers, sisters, brothers, all eager to help in making the day the brightest, the most delightful of the year. The celebration of the birth of the Christ has de­ veloped into a season of extending good cheer from one to another, until today the best organized efforts of our fra­ ternal, civic and religious societies are concerted in spreading cheer and comfort, joy and thanksgiving to every home and to every child. In this we have developed the trait of giving material things, not alone, hut of ex­ tending to all the spirit that prompted the utterance, “ Peace on earth, good will to men.” There is significance in the fact, that more than nineteen hundred years later, the world celebrates the birth of Christ. The announcement of the angel of the Lord was truly the-world’s best news. And to you, dear readers, The Tidings, in the spirit of the season, wishes you a very Merry Christmas, and a Happy New Year. SONG AT CHRISTMAS Children’s voices raised in song, on the streets or in places where weary souls and eynical hearts may hear them. At Christmas! • It is a happy fashion. It brings joy into the hearts rf the children through doing something that makes others happy. It is exercise in the Christmas spirit. If you know anyone who is helping in the movement lor Christmas carol singing, tell of your appreciation. They will like it. And we will have more carols. May you have a Christmas that wifi linger long in the treasure chest o f your memory. h i! |j | |i | ■ E 1 35 ?ro der patrons of the past and to our future i i&vexy Merry Christmas Plaza Meat Market •I.-L.

The Ashland Laundry Christmas ♦ ' THE ALMOST PITIFUL CLEAVER The case of Cleaver is almost pitiful. Totally incom­ petent and utterly lacking in balanced judgment, he has nialadministered the office of state prohibition commis- : Hner since the day of his appointment. Surrounded by ether incompetents and worse, appointed by himself as aides, he has never done anything right, because he didn’t know how and couldn’t. He has been the heavièst single liability of the Pierce state administration, and that is saying much, because that administration lias many lia­ bilities. There is nothing surprising in Cleaver’s latest faux pas, in raiding the steamer London Merchant and seizing its liquor which was being kept lawfully under seal. It is not surprising that Cleaver, as he now confesses, did not know that he was violating the state law and the fed­ eral law and an international treaty in making that raid. It is *not surprising that, as he further confesses, he did not understand the extent or limitation of his own official authority and powers. Nor is his utter self abasement in his apology surprising. None of it surprising, because he is Cleaver. The pity of it all is that the occurrence will be water °? ; ? wheel of those who seek abolition of the state pro­ hibition enforcement department, and who will ih all liklihood make the effort at the coming .legislature. Even the best of us would be “ criminals” if enough a&lly laws were passed.
