With the co-operation of every man, woman and child who believes in the great sentiments that.underlie the cele- bration of the holiday it can be done. And The Evening World asks EVERYBODY to 1elp. The favorable attitude of the delegates of the nations at Washington forecasts the dawning of the Peace of the World before this year’s Christmas rolls round. Why not celebrate its beginning, along with the anniversary of the dawn of the Light of the World? And why should not the great heart of humanity, saddened and almost overcome by after-war weariness, be attuned to a new note of Good Will this Christmastide?/ Let it be said of this coming Christmas that though Santa Claus may leave some empty stockings, nobody, neighborly greeting and the Good Will some other heart can give. If you are with The Evening World in this enter- prise, sign and send in the coupon you will find printed in the paper to-day and every day this week. This does not bind you to any programme, no matter who presents it, but just for the sake of “starting the ball rolling,” The Evening World suggests certain things that will give outward evidence of the Christmas spirit in the hearts of men, women and children. Some of these things which organizations and individuals are invited to do are:| Will every church open and light its church building or parish house every evening from Sunday, Dec. 18, to Sunday, Jan, 1, and will church workers be on duty every evening to give welcome to strangers and friends? Will every Y. M. C. A., K. of C., ¥. W. C. A. and Y.M. H1. A. club and settlement house keep “open house” for strangers and members alike every evening during the two weeks? Will theatre managers open their theatres for one afternoon of the week before Christmas for a free matinee for poor or crippled children and poor mothers? Will actresses and actors and musicians volunteer to entertain the convalescent patients of some hospital or the inmates of some charitable institution or prison, and will their organizations undertake to furnish entertainments for these institutions, for the Salvation Army’s free dinners Will Community Service organizations or their suc-| cessors make efforts to assure community Christmas Trees | in every square and park in Greater New York and in| every neighboring city and town? Will the musicians and musical organizations assure programmes of Christmas carols and popular songs for every Community Christmas Tree on Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve? And at all these public gatherings will not the people talk and sing of the blessings to come from the Peace of the World? Will every man and woman pay a visil to a sick or invalid friend, to a patient in a hospital or to the inmates of some institution or prison? Will every man and woman pay a visil to at least one neighbor or friend? Will every automobile owner give his or her car for a ride for some invalid or poor woman or poor child one fine-weather day during the two weeks? Will every head of a household invite one child or one stranger to be a guest at his table for Christmas dinner? Will every child give a toy, old or new, to some other child? Will every city and town illuminate its public build- ings with appropriate holiday designs? Will every railroad company display in its stations a “Welcome—Happy Christmas” sign? Will stores, hotels and banks display a Christmas sign and provide holiday decorations and illuminations, and will they display prominently, from Dec. 18 to Dec. 25, placards reading: ‘‘Write a letter to your home folks this week’? Will men, women and children promise themselves to extend a hearty Christmas Greeting to every stranger. friend or neighbor they meet on Christmas or New Year's Day? | Will all endeavor to fill their minds with kindly} thoughts and lend their hands to some kindly, friendly | neighborly act of Good Will? | ———_—— | Readers of The Evening World are asked to fill in, | sign and forward to this newspaper the printed coupon, so the explorers found two models of small boats filled with row- | ers and fitted with masts and | sails, This shows the deceased | carrying a rod and a staff, which is unusual, It is a’ re- minder of a phrase in the | 23d Psalm which has never been fully understood, that when volunteers may be needed their whereabouts will | be known. | The things The Evening World suggests that every-| body do to show a working faith in Christmas teachings are | no part of a set programme.
