The preference of newspapers and

vertising copy prepared by the gen

national headquarters is shown by
the use of three and one half times
as many pages of district copy as
national copy. Both displays were

The pnople are demanding a high
er standard of service in the state
legislature if that branch of the gov
ernment is to enjoy respect.
By the system known as direct
legislation the people showed that
they distrusted legislatures as such,
but that system has not worked well.
The people have a right to demano
prester efficiency -and less waste by
legislatures less lost motion and
less rash enactment of laws.
Before a legislature takes up and
enuc.s a new law imposing a tax or
creating burdens affecting all the
. people such law should be asked for
by someone besides those Interested
in putting it over.
The old order of business, "peti
tions and remonstrances" that was
established as a regular feature of
legislative business should be revived
and no law passed until petitions for
"it are on .file.
In the same way, having one or
two professional lobbyists, generally
publishers from some big city, make
headquarters at the state house and
take personal charge of the legisla
ture is wrong.
Americans should also rise above
the petty practices of nepotism that
manifests itself in taking members
of their families to the state c.apito
and getting them fat sinecures during
the session.
If this is to be a country with op
portunity for all alike to get to tlle
iront, in peace times as wen as war,,
and if politically we are all created
free and equal, let our legislatures,
set new pace. Alan ufacturer.

the world to express its joy in gifts.
Parliaments, legislatures, schools
and universities, and courts of law
prepare for a few days vacation that
those engaged in these great enter
prises may join the jubilant throng.
Yes, and the world takes on new
beauty everywhere. Decorations
suddenly become universal rendering
shop windows attractive, homes and
churches brighter, and even public
buildings and streets greet the eye
a ith evergreen.
All this expenditure of labor and
money the 4'r!d seems perfectly
willing to bear, and indeed rejoices
in the annually recurring burden.
A tidal wave of joyous emotion rMis

Christmas season, peop!e become
possessed with a consuming- desire
to make those around them happier,
so that the total hours of labor ex
pended for this purpose, or the
millions of money invested surpasses
our powers of imagination.
Suppose one of the old Greek
philosophers who lived before the
birth of Christ could revisit this
earth and become a thoughtful
witness of this annual pouring out
of treasure at Christmas ' time,
might ho not naturally ask, "What
Is the cause which inspires this
universal Impulse of generosity?"
And we can well believe that he
would listen enraptured to the story
of Bethlehem's Babe, and having
taken the full meaning of the blessed
story, could he better express his
inward delight than in the words of
the text. "Thanks be to God for his
nncnoQitnhio irift'" a a matt'pr nf
fact these words were first uttered
by a Greek scholar one whose
thought has entered isto the current
of human history and contributed
largely to the world's best life.

aicst beautiful incident Uiat I or.ye
seen recorded during the v:or'il--.v.ir
is that of a little babe. Tie ii.;'.u
of the sun rising over a bV.lk- i
in northern France revealed tho
hostile trendies, not far apart, fully
mai.ned for confi'ct. Midway be
tween the lines, in no,' man's land,
stood a shalieied ccttage. The in .ru
ing stillness was broken by the roar
of guns. Here and there men were
falling wounded cr gasping in deaih.
when suddenly a babe was discovered
near the cottage creeping among the
grass and wild flowers. As though
a command had been heard from the
throne of God, the firing ceased. A
soldier sprang from the trenches, ran
forward and tenderly picked up ths
cooing child. Not a shot was fired
as, among cheers from both sides,
the hero bore the innocent babe to
safety. Something noble in those
warrior hearts responded to the
presence of that bahe just as nearly
two thousand years ago the world in
the midst of its sin and sorrow was
aliened to a new hope when the
divine babe was laid in the manger
at Bethlehem.
An Kra of (Jiving.
Never before in the history of the
,vorld have men poured forth their
wealth so lavishly as now for the
:elief of human distress. Never lias
human brotherhood been so fully
realized as during the year just

ground of hellish hatred gleams the
soft glow of the new day, seen by
Bobby Burns.

of the Lord is upon me, be?ause he
hath anointed me to preach good
tidings unto the meek, he hath sent
me to bind up the broken-hearted,
to proclaim liberty to the captives
and the opening of the prison to
them that are bound to comfort all
that mourn."
A True (Jife.
Tho value cf our fifts to one
another arises from the spirit in
which they are made. To give
simply because such is the custom,
or to fulfill a social obligation may
have very little significance--may
indeed become hypccri.ieal. "The
rift without the giver is bare."
To give for display or to give be
voud ones means is vain. Such
Siting confers no blessing on either
the giver or the recipient. The true
gift must carry with it something of
:he giver, and its true acceptance,
kindles or renews some degree of
friendship or love. True giving, then,
is an expression of a personal re
lationship. By our gift we may often
convey a thought where words
might fail. The engagement ring
becomes a bauble unless it is the
expression of sincerity. But truly
given and received it carries with it
a weight of affection which time but
increases.
Now in the light of tiiese thoughts
consider the words of the text.
WnX did llle Aposle call God's gift
"unspeakable?" He simply means
thai, words fail to tell its signifi-
cance. No language can express,
no angel song can carry in its
heavenly melody, God's love tor
men. It outweighs speech. That
God has loved the world may be seen
by every right-minded person in the
world itself; there is so much in the
world to express the love ot us
Creator. Human love, which is
about all that makes life, in the long
run, worth living, is a part of God's
ihuught and pian for ma. Cut not
oven these were suilicietit to make
ku.jwu God's love for us. Theref re

Out of all the riches of this gift
let us select just one gem and
examine it briefly. The Apostle
John writes "And this is the record
that God hath given to us eternal
life, and this life Is in his Son."
Eternal Life! How precious Is this
present life and that also is God's
gift. But beside this fleeting earthly
life, even at its best, the life that
can never fail, rich, full, bouyaut
with eternal youth who can com
prehend It? And yet it is God's gift,
and it is ours if we claim it. The
past year has been filled with tears.
Death has been everywhere. Death

The land and the
despairing notes of wailing and dis-
tress which arises from earth I bid
you listen to these words, like the
peal of a silver trumpet In the dark-
ness of midnight, "And God shall
wipe away all tears from their eyes,
and there shall be no more death
neither sorrow nor crying, neither
shall there be any more pain." Make
this glad hope your own and a joy
which this world can neither give1
nor take away will fill your soul, and
you shall find rest.

I. The Light of the World.
It is commonly assumed that
man's progress has, from the ban
ning, bten steadily upward. How
ever, upon closer investigation,' it is
seen that the course of history is
somewhat like a journey to the top
of some mountain peak. It is not
uphill all the way. Frequently the
road will descend alnrest to the level
from which 'the traveler started and
the climb must be begun once more.
Various civilizations have arisen,
each one -doubtless, the wonder of
its times, only to tall In ruins and
be followed by other civilizations.
An exception to this is found in the
history of a few nations of the east.
Each one of which, enclosed within
its hermit walls, has gathered in
around itself the garments of its
early vigorous achievements, and has
jeacefull slumbered, thru the cen
turies. At last awakening iu the
full glare of the noon-day sun, and
now adjusting its vision to the un
accustomed light.
This early period may well be
called the night of the world. Little
or its achievements have been pre
served. Its cities have fallen in
decay, us science discarded as
false. Its philosophy found unsatis
fying and unprofitable, its arts,
wonderful as they were, have been
either lost or supplanted by better.
its religions debasing. Its moral
.standards low. Men everywhere
.'elt themselves helpless under do
mlnatipn of the evil and destructive
influences of the age. Plato said:
"We wait for one be it a God or a
God inspired man, to take away the
darkness from our eyes." Seneca,
ai about the time Christ was born,
said: "So public has iniquity be
come, so mightily does it flame up
.a ail hearts, that innocence is no
longer rare, it is unknown." liiteui-

If The Dawn.
In the sandy desert country of the
bible lands it is said that because of
vhe glare of the sun on the sand
which almost causes blindness, and
the oppressive heat, travelers will
fre.iuently rest during the day and
.ravel at night, guided by the stars.
But if the guiding stars become
Hidden by clouds the travelers are
aelpless and must await In , the
darkness the dawn or the passing of
the clouds. It was such a situation
as this, probably, that Zaeharias had
in mind as he uttered the words of
die text. The guiding stars of the
Mosaic law and the prophetic teach
ings had become hidden by the tra
dition and ceremonial of men. Pro
gress was at a standstill. The blind
were leading the blind.
Travelers report that towards the
close of the long polar night of dark
ness there is expectation and long
ing for the return of daylight, on the
part of those who live In the polar
regions. When the first gleam of the
sun appears the cry is heard: "Be
hold the sun." So was the expecta
tion and longing of the world. "The
people were In expectation." Luke

they have been permitted to see the
"Sun of Righteousness" arise. The
angels announced his birth to tlu
shepherds with benedictions from
God. Wise men from the East came
and layed their tribute before Him.
Men from all Judea went out to
hear John the Baptist and to ask
if he were the promised one who
j should come. In answer John
i pointed to Jesus. And Matthew
quotes the fulfilment of a prophecy
by Islah: "The people that sat in
darkness saw a great light and to
then, that sat n the region and

111. The Day.
Jesus proclaimed himself
Light of the World and said:
the
"He
that follow eth ma shall not walk in
darkness, but shall have the lignt if
life." John 8:12. A light makes
plain the road and reveals the
dangers along the way. It penetrates
and dispels the darkness. It serves
as a beacon and guide. It gives
health, strength, and beauty to all
foi ms of life. It is of inestimable
value to those who will use it. It
is aiinost inconceivable that some
should purposely deprive themselves
of its benefits. And yet some do.
Jesus said: "Every one that doeth
evil hateth the light, and Cometh not
to the light, lest his works should
be reproved." John 3:20. A botch
job of work looks just as good in the
dark as the very finest piece of work
mauship. Take it into the light if
you want, to appraise it. The char
acters of some men appear all right
when in the darkness of Central
Africa. If you want to estimate the
character you have builded don't
examine It in the semi-darkness of
some scalawag you happen to know,
even if he Is in the church. But
stand out in the Light of World, and
then make comparisons and take
notes.
Some keen analyst of history has
said that our present day civilization
contains two elements which insure
its perpetuity. These, he said, are
deductive logic and Christianity. To
day it is possible for us to go a little
turtlicr in our analysis. The Ger
man Empire had deductive logic and
. omoi selessly applied it everywhere,
to the exclusion of Christianity. The
German Empire has fallen, and so
has German civilization. It is safe
to say today that a civilization may
perpetuatf itself wrl.iut logic but
cannot do so without Christianity.
Christianity rejected by Germany,
ha.- made the difference between tne
Hun brute and the American idealist.
Between a monarchy for the advan
tage of a few and a democracy for
the good of all. Between "Might
makes right" and "Right makes
might." The Light of the World
shows us the better way for. nation
or Individual. Nation or individual
is strengthened and beautified by
living and walking in the light.
Well may we, then, this Christmas-
tide, celebrate with joy and thanks
giving the coming of that Light
which has dispelled so much of the
world's sin, sorrow, and hopelessness.
And which may, today, be to us the.
; Light of Life, to guide us thru lite

M.AIHIO'S lILi;OAI PLAN
The fit st thing that strikes one in
Lireetur-General McAir.io's urging
an extension for five years of Gov
eminent operation of the railroads
is tht! evidence it yields of confused
. ouni'.' is and of uncertainty on the
part of the Administration. On De
cember 1 the President went before
Congress and spoke on the question
of "the policy to be adopted toward
tho railroads." He said: "I have no
confident judgment of my own. I
do not see how any thoughtful man
can have." He added that it was a
problem to be carefully looked Into,
and he hoped that Congress would
have "a complete and .impartial
study Instituted at once tind pros
ecuted as rapidly as possible," That
was on December 1. But on Decem
ber 11 Mr. McAdoo issues n" far
reaching and full-bodied plan, and
winds up with the cool statement:
"The President has given me per
mission to say that this conclusion
accords with his own view of the
matter." Mr. Wilson's conversion
from open doubt to entire certainty
must have been rapid. To adapt the
old couplet, betwixt the White
House and the ship he mercy sought
and mercy found. ,
As Mr. McAdoo is to cease bing
Director-General on the first of Jan
uary, It might have been thought
that he would leave recommenda
tions of general policy to his suc
cessor. But lot that pass. There is
a pressing emergency, according to
Mr. McAdoo, requiring Congress to
act. It is certainly a kind of emer
gency reasoning which he offers. He
starts off by assuming that Congress,
in the less than three months , re
maining of this session, will find It
"impossible" to settle the railroad
question permanently. Therefore, it
must do a piece of hurried patch
work. This does not necessarily
follow. The new Congress might be
called in extra session to do the Job
deliberately and
thoroughly. But
( Mr. McAdoo, with his co
, "either-or" logic, declares tht
three courses are open: (1)
confident
that only
to let
things alone for a couple of years;
(2) to turn back the railroads at
nce; (3) to extend Government con-
trol for five years. But It does not
need President Wilson's "thoughtful
man" to see that these alternatives
do not -by any means exhaust the
possibilities. The present system ot
Government control, which Mr. Mc
Adoo admits Is not working well,
may be improved. Plans may be
made to return the roads to private
ownership under modified legislation.
The McAdoo five-year period is pure
ly arbitrary; it might be made three
years, or six, or ten, so far as the
force of his reasoning goes. He
presents very much the appearance
of a man who had made up his mind
Ilia, a certain thing ought io be done,
and then cast about for arguments
to justify it. This is commonly called
;?!' :;;ng the question.
The more Mr. McAdoo's presenta
tion of his case is examined, the
move perplexing and inconclusive It
appears. He describes tho exist lug
legislation as inadequate. It admits
of unhappy conflicts between Federal
and Siate authorities. Moreover, the
fund the so-called "revolving fuud"
provided by Congress is not large
enough. There should be minor
amendments to the lav, and more
money voted. But to do this Con
gress will find it "impossible" in Its
crowded short session, Mr. McAdoo
states, and then calmly suggests f hat
It do the vastly easier thing oi agree
ing offhand to a five-year Federal
control and appropriating $2,000,
000,000. This jump from premises
to conclusions is tremendous.
It is equally hard to understand
Mr. McAdoo, and just as difficult to
follow him, when he passes to the
subject of the psychology of railway
employees. One aspect of their state
of mind, under Government opera
tion he does not mention, though
housands of shippers and other rail
way patrons have remarked it. We
mean their general letlmg-down of
business morale, their indifference,
their inattention to duty. It is, in a
word, the "bliixht" of Government
control, of which Mr. Hughes has
been speaking. The Director-General
does not appear to have observed
this, but he comes out strong on the
restlessness and relaxing discipline
of the men employed on the rail
roads, owing, Mr. McAdoo alleges,
to their uncertainty how long Gov
ernment operations will continue,
and what their future status may be.
If this is true, and the railway men
have been neglecting their work in
order to organize debating societies,
an order from the Director-General
would seem to be called for. But
Mr. McAdoo's proposed remedy Is
quite other. Assure the employees
of five years more under the Govern
ment, and they will Instantly stop
talking about wages and hours and
privileges and prospects, becoming
tnstanter highly efficient. Anybody
except a retiring Director-Generai
who will believe this will believe
anything. And as for Mr. McAdoo's
grave assertion that the course
recommended by him would take the
railroads "out of politics," it Is hard
to imagine a plan which would keep
them longer and deeper in politics.
Many of the considerations ad
vanced by Mr. McAdoo are of un
doubted force. There is a consensus
of intelligent opinion that the rail
roads ought not quickly to go back
to private control. Action by Con
gress will undoubtedly he necessary
to prevent what the President called
the "disservice" of returning to "the
old conditions unmodified." But all
this only heightens the unwisdom
of attempting such short-cuts as Mr.
McAdoo advises. To turn a blind eye
upon complexity does not make It
simplicity. And hasty improvisa
tions of policy, no matter from what
source, can never be a satisfactory
substitute for patient, study and
cautious experiment. New York
