Giving gifts on Christmas day is in keeping with the spirit of the Savior whose birthday we commemo rate on December 25th, because Christ was the greatest giver of all time. Yet in celebrating the birth day of the Master, sight Is some- times lost of His great gift to hu- manity—Christianity. It has been said that people ac- cept Christianity rather than be- lieve it, and believe it rather than practice it. There would seem to be considerable truth in this statement. During the years 1914-1918 the Christian world and not the pagan world waged the greatest war of al) time, and now as we are on the threshold of another Christmas day, nations that fly the banner of the Cross are on the verge of going to war with one another. Not only this but there Is turmoil and distress within the nations. Indeed rare are the people who practice the precepts of Christianity from one Christmas day to the next. Yet, notwithstanding, Christian ity is a gift that one cannot afford to reject. The principles of the Christian religion are as unmistake- ably true as the law of gravitation. It is a rich gift; one that can be used in endless ways to solve the problems of life and bring more happiness to the world. So, perhaps, during this Yuletide season giving thought to the Giver and His Gift will greatly add to the joy and happiness of the Christmas day. Hope Revived. The following editorial gives a very definite reason why Walia Walla should negotiate in every way to promote immediate construction of a dam at Umatilla rapids, which will make the Columbia navigable to Pasco and up the Snake river. Encouragement is felt here over possibilities of a change in freight rates which will wipe out the dif ferential now existing and open the markets of Seattle and other Juget Sound points ‘ Walla Walla wheat and eliminate the penalty on other products. Some Seattle workers for the removal of the differential say i . t it will b- possible to bring it t-out because u tie ruling that port equalization should be left within the discretion or the carriers, al though Portland interests, which now get practically all of our wheal because of the lower rates, say the situation will ve let unchanged. In tables accompanying the report of the interstate commerce commis sion the rates for points south of the Snake river (the Walls Walla ter- ritory) are set on a differential bas is making rates two cents a hundred pounds higher to Seattle than to Portland. George J. Hall, Interstat? com merce commission examiner al Washington, D. C., however, in an Interpretation of the ruling just an nounced said that the railroads would be permitted to choose wheth- er to maintain the differential pre- vlously prescribed for Portland un der Seattle. Years ago when a hearing was held In Walla Walla before tne I.C. C. examiner in an effort to upset the differential, the railroads ex pressed a willingness to do away with the differential. The Seattle Interpretation, as well as that of George J. Hall, and I. C. C. examiner, Is that it is within the discretion of the railroads. Walla Walla shippers, who carried on a battle years ago to do away with the differential, believe that if a modi fication is brought about by the railroads It would widen the market for the wheat, grown south of the Snake river, very materially and would give growers more for their grain than they can get in a re stricted market.

Seattle and Tacoma buyers had to withdraw. Portland | interests have always argued that | the Walla Walla district growers re- | ceived the benefit of the lower rate, but the growers themselves con tend that they would get more if the market were larger and more dealers were bidding for grain. They say that in the old days when Coast shippers needed wheat to fill out a cargo they bought freely and that they, the growers, received the benefit. A change would cheapen the cost of shipping vegetables, most of which go to Seattle and at a higher rate. The differential also affects all shipments into Walla Walla and vicinity. It possibly will be a while before full information is obtained as to the ruling and its effect, but In the meantime the, growers of this dist rict are hopeful.—Walla Walla Bul letin. $4.50 "Game Bird” mixtures, Other» $ 2 50 and the $350 "BUY MEN'S GIFTS FROM A MEN S STORE."

For most people, supply seems to be dependent upon the state of busi ness. If it is good, supply appears to be adequate; and this condition is thought to he an influence tn helping the individual to live happily and to have good health. Seeing, then, that the state of one’s business is believed to greatly contribute to one's sense of harmony, we should see the neces sity of looking al this question from the right standpoint. Some Individuals look at this sub ject more hopefully than do some others. Many people are beginning to see that to tuke the stand that business is bad. and that it is going to get worse, is certainly the wrong way to think about it Many have stopped using the word “depression.” feeling that the continual use of it has a bad effect upon the general outlook. Business Is primarily mental. In fact, all human experience Is the out ward expression of a state of con sciousness. Christian Science reveals God, infinite good, as the only Mind If the individual accepts this fact, he can learn how to reject all wrong thoughts. The acceptance of God. in- finite good, as the only Mind opens his thought to receive the good and perfect ideas which come from God, divine Mind The only real business is the activ ity which comes from God. The one infinite, spiritual creation is always expressing the perfect activity which comes from the creator. Wonderfully uplifting is the realisation of the truth set forth tn this statement by Mary Baker Eddy: "Mind Is the source of all movement, and there la no Inertia to retard or check its per petual and harmonious action” (Sci ence and Health with Key to the Scriptures, p. 181). For several yeara the world has been accepting the gen eral belief that something has inter fered with harmonious activity; and M growing church. PILGRIM HOLINESS CHURCH Lawson H. Flora. Pastor. O.

Among the citations which com prised the Lesson-Sermon was the following from the Bible: "Know therefore this day, and consider It in thine heart, that the Lord he is God in heaven above, and upon the earth beneath; there is none else" (Deut. 4:39), The Lesson-Sermon also includ ed the following correlative pas sages from the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures", by Mary Baker Eddy: "God being everywhere and all-inclusive, how can He be absent or suggest the absence of omnipresence and om- . . The substance, nipotence? Lite, intell I gente, Truth, and Love, which constitute Deity, are reflected by His creation and when we subordinate the false testimony of the corporeal senses to the facts of Science, we shall see this true likeness and reflec tion everywhere” (pp. 287, 516).

WASHING MACHINE ELECTRIC TRAIN both time and effort have been ex pended in trying to ascertain what la | the trouble. One who accepts the fact that omnipotent Mind "is the source of all movement" can never believe in depression as real. Hav ing gained the true idea of activity, one can refuse to accept the belief that any mortal supposition has in terfered. or ever can Interfere, with harmonious activity. A business man might be told by several of his salesmen that they found sales very poor, and he might learn that someone in a similar line of business had failed. He might let anxiety and fear eater his thought. This, of course, would not be helpful. On the other hand, If he refused to accept wrong thoughts about business and held to the fact that real activity comes from divine Mind, and is al ways perfect, his affairs would im- prove; and to this extent he would help to improve conditions in general. Since harmonious activity comes from God. divine Mind, and the real man. the true selfhood of all. is the linage and likeness of divine Mind, the real man’s business is always good, and spiritual man is ever re- joking In harmonious activity. The great Way-shower, Christ Jesus, rec- ognized that spiritual man ever re- fleets God. for he said. "The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father do: for what things soever he doeth. these also doeth the Son likewise." One who accepts the true idea of activity is able to rise above the beliefs of fatigue, monot ony. and worry; for the realisation of the fact that man reflects divine Mind gives joyoua strength, freedom, and expectancy of good. Since business Is In reality the activity which comes from God, di vine Principle, fear, dishonesty, greed, st lUshneae. and lack of ability are no part of real business. This knowledge enables one to refuse to accept ti ese falsities as having power to operate tn his thought and affaire; and ho sees Instead honesty, efficien- ry. freedom, love, and joy.
