People who stand and look at the toys.are Hving their own childhood again. Chil dren who gaze in these windows think they shall never-grow op, or give no thought to it whatever. There are many on the streets, breasting the gray wind, and all are in a great harry. Nevertheless great numbers of them pause to contemplate the toys. By this sign Christmas draws near. Yon would know that i t drew near even if the calendar did not supply this information—even if there were no calendars. A wistfulness in the weather and wistfulneee in the heart.

Under Govern moet men are* w illin g to sell And Now Congress May Be Flooded ’ There will be no “ drouth” of projects when the United States Congress takes up the question of flood control. On the other hand, there are in dications of a flood of measures dealing with this subject. The situation may easily become such that Congress itself will feel impelled to construct meta phorical dams, storage basins and reservoirs for control, not of the floods but of flood-control pro jects, an inundation of which might easily submerge it in a sea of indecision. Ideas, however, are what Congress needs and undoubtedly wants. Able engineers from all over the country have been most cautious in proposing remedies for flood conditions. They appear to be in general agreement that not one, two, nor three, individual plans of control will suffice, but that many things will have to be done, and these only after a most exhaustive survey of the situation. Congress protebly will call for the opinions of engineers who have studied the issue and who are capable of contributing something to the prob lem, but Congress also will have to give some r e c o g nition to the scores and hundreds, and perhaps thousands, of suggestions which the laymen of the country—particularly of the areas affected by floods —have to offer. All sorts of schemes, from the post, sibly practical to the practically impossible, will be submitted. Home of these may be worthy of the most serious consideration, and Congress, therefore, will find itaetf constrained to face this incoming flood of opinion with some effort to sort the wheat from the chll».--C^riHtian Science Monitor.
