For the past four years our celebration of this day has seemed a mockery. There were so many lands in which there was no joy, no peace and no mirth for the little folks. Belgium, France, Ser- bia, Armenia, Poland—in those coun- tries children were suffering from cold and hunger, they were orphaned, maimed, utterly miserable and hope less under the scourge of cruc} war y there We midst In some of those regions toc are no little children left alive tried to remember them in the of our and conscience- joy were stricken that there was so little we for that we could do. had done them, so little at best lhe sees the figures.

Christmas should be the beginning of Childr Year thruout the world. There are undernourished bodies to be built up to plumpness and _rosi- ness. There are starved little souls; to be fed love and fun and tender- ness. ‘There are peace and yood will to be restored to the hearts of man- kind Let this Christmas last all thru the Oa SUFFRAGE BONFIRES the United neglected in States.’ The ways of women are past find { T ouRnOMG His noliinall ca che aieat of Tyres, 1D Jeule, famoun| ing out, Particularly inscrutable reo has been identified with the fae ibed RE ie thetey of Ge corel are the ways of militant suffragists.|radical party.
