Muschenheim, proprietor of the Hotel Astor—The Evening World has touched a very human note in its appeal for “A Peace and Good Wili Christmas,” and is spread- ing excellent propaganda for the pro- motion of the true spirit of the holi- day. This is the psychological mo- ment for such an appeal, and it will certainly have the support of all thinking citizens. In training the child to “remember his neighbors and give hearty greetings to both friends and strangers on Christmas Day” is to cement the friendship of, not only the coming generations but of na- tions as well. From Fred C. Reed, R lent Man- ager of the Claridge—The Evening World's Good Will Campaign should be encouragea by every man and woman in the country. Most cer- tainly we will do our best to bring the Christmas spirit to our hotel and to our guests. From Frank E.

From J. Morris Robinson, Manager of the Woodstock Hotel—Vine idea, great plan; glad somebody started it. If The Evening World ean persuade porsons to attack the problem of bringing cheer and good will to the poor kiddies with the same degree of enthusiasm that they display whem asked for an expression of opinion, it will have achieved a signal victory. ‘Talk is cheap, but generosity, to mo: of us, means a sacrifce—and that's the true test of giving. The Evening ‘World should be commended for its willingness to start the balf rolling. From Joseph F. Cari Manager of the McAlpin Hotel—The Evening World's plan for bringing good cheer and good will to all during the Christ- mas holidays is a capital one. So many of us are busy with thoughts only of personal happiness that we are apt to lose sight of what Christ- mas really means. We should all try to do good, but let us at this holiday time make a visible manifestation of our personal generosity and bring cheer and happiness to the heart of some poor child or work-weary mother. From Theodore Titze, Manager of Sherry’s—I_ commend The Evening World for stimulating a magnanimous impulse which, | am sure, has been lying dormant in the soul of many | New Yorkers, and everybody should |get behind the movement, as sug- gested, make this Christmas a festival of good-will and cheer for all, From Michael Sabatini, Chef, at Delmonico’s—The Evening World is a great newspaper, and I am glad to see \it foster a plan for bringing joy to the hearts of the poor of this city. I hope jevery one will do his part and make the suggestions come true.

Scores of churches Will keep open every evening from Dec. 18 to Jan. 1 to welcome strangers and neighbors. One minister, who will change his charge at Christmas time, writes that he will take up The Evening World's suggestions on visiting the sick and he inmates of prisons and other in- stitutions. ‘A World reader who is deeply in- Christmas throughout our big terested in the Christmas festival suggestion writes: Let us spread the spirit of metropolitan community. The Swiss peasant keeps a light burn- ing in his house for the Christ Child on Christmas Eve. Every- where throughout the city stand churches and settlements. With doors open and lights aflame, the Christ Child in every boy and girl, every man and woman might find a welcome, Many of them can do no more than keep open house. In some wise way, without over- lapping, they can see that the hungry are fed and the naked clothed and the desolate cheered. If this were done on Christmas, would not the churches, now gen- erally-open on New Year's Eve, be visited by multitudes who pass them by? The world necds a new start in the year 1922, : Scores of volunteers offer to visit the sick in their homes and in hos- pitals; others want to spread cheer in the institutions where former vice men are being rehabilitate other, a lawyer, wants to spea peace to any audience where his ser- vices are desired, and a number of singers and entertainers hold them- eelves in readiness to respond to any request for their services.
