(Vancouver Western Tribune.) [ The heading of this paragraph may cause quite a number of people to pass the column by this week, but if the readers will stay with it |until the close, perhaps théy will share the {opinion. Recently I overheard two devout and no doubt | |estimable people discussing the “terrible situa- tion” Into which the institution of Christ has fallen. No longer do the public remember the divine origin of the celebration. Instead it has a period during which merchans dealing in all classes of goods snap a killing, taking full advantage of the Christmas spirit propaganda dispensed by the churches and adding to it much of their own. * . . It is a good thing that we have an institu- tion which inspires us to giving once a year, and awakens in our hearts that warmth which un- selfish thinking and unselfish acting alone can te. We are all better for it. The Christ- mas spirit comes along and heals many breaches between friends and families, for who would be a Scrocge? And following the example of the Three Wise Men, we give gifts, the tangible ex- pression of the Christmas spirit working in us. | With the giving idea motivating so many |people at one time, it is self-evident that there must be some source of supply for the remem- brances which are exchanged. Ordinary people are too busy to make the things they give away. And so the factories and the tradesmen fill the need, spreading before us infinite varieties of thin from which to choose. Because the fac- tories and the merchants have organized them- selves so thoroughly, we are able to give more and better gifts than otherwise would be pos- sible.

In fact, the chances are that the Kans City wlefare saloon enumerators have missed more than half of them there. The Vice-P dent of the Kansas City Life Insurance Company who was tin Juneau last summer declared that his company ‘had a list of 1,800, and he admitied that the - list was very incomplete. He thought there must ‘be 3,000.

Collier, in the St. Louis Globe Democrat: “Should Sunday clothes make you feel more religious, by all means wear them.” ‘an’t see how golf togs can make a man feel more religious. Especially if he is off his game. Though, of course, he then uses a good many Sunday school words -in a way he shouldn't. Married Wealth “What has become of that young Wiseman who failed in husiness?” “He's on E. Z. street now. He succeeded in love.” Passing Observation It is getting so the marriage ties are given about as much re- spect as the Christmas ties get. More Or Less True Utopia is a place where a man is paid enough to meet his fam. ily’s wants, instead of merely what he is worth.
