WAR CN SANTA CLATS. Every Year Sees Recruits to the Army of “Scrooges. Along with the rebellion against God and governments there is a war against Santa, Claus. Every year there are new recruits in the army of grumblers against the holidays, There is nothing wrong about Christmas. But something has hap- pened to a lot of péople, declares a writer in the Delineator. There is only one way to have Christmas—and that is to make it for some one else. If there is so little of the child left in you.that you scorn Christmas and flout Santa Claus—if there is so little love and sympathy for those who suffer (for suffering makes the strongest of us as little children)— then find some excuse to go away on Christmas. Enjoy your gloom all by yourself. You will know then what you have lost. You will prove what is left in_ life—your life—material facts, and doubt of all else. ‘This is the dross of life. The gold is in_the hands of little children, and of the men and women whd bind their souls to that indefinable, mys- terfous somothing in' man that lifts him above the beasts. Santa Claus part of that spirit- ual side of us; Santa Claus—with his reindeers, his sleigh bells, his round little belly and red coat we almost glimpsed in our childhood—who never failed to conquer all obstacles of storms and roofs and narrow chim- neys—and no chimneys at all!
