ever khown, BRIGHTEN Those eitigens whe had a part in the schema of decoiation which is attracting so much attention in the business seetlon of Oshawa are ta be eomplis mented on the enterprise they have shown in thelr desire ta give the eity a real Christmas atmosphere, There 1s something about the eolored lights and the Christmas trees which gives a feeling of warmth, and adds a seasonablo toueh to the otherwise drab busis ness streets of the elty, and makes the people on the streets cast thelr eves upwards to the bright and vars colored lights which are beekoning them to the buss ness section, It muy be thought that here is an ex ample of spending money oF no purpose, and yet, it In but a recognition of the sentiment whieh opens all hearts at the Christmas seagon, Tt brings the spirit of Chelstinas eheer mito full evidence, and helps to make the citigens of Oshawa realise that thiv a we time 10 be dull and morose, but that itis a time when they should look upward, to think of the blessings and the bounties of Ne, and of the things which make the Christmas senson © mean po mueh to the whole "hristlan world, BUY AND MAIL EARLY ® Chelstimas 1s coming nearer, and is now

often results in dis appointments, 80 this woek should be & busy eae mado #0 by those people whe are determined not to walt until the fast twd or three days, but to do thelr Christmas shopping at

the necessity of nat only shopping early for Chrivtmay, but alo Watling early, 30 that when Christinas comes around, there Will by no frayed TOMPOrS, NO Wornout shop assistants and postal ols ficlaly, and no disappointed friends and relatives, STAMPING OUT RELIGION § I The leaders of fiovist Russlu are determined to do everything they possibly can to stamp out sll the re liglous Instincts of their people, The Christian Sune diy hus been wholished, churehes and cathedrals razed the ground 10 make way for bulldings of a now eliglous chiracter, and now rules and regulations Mave heen promulgated by the Moscow government forbidding the observance of the Christmas peavon throughout the Union of Soclulistie Soviet Wepublics which Is Russia, There must be no Clirlstmas garols, no Christmas cards, ne Christmus giith, Lyverything whigh shows any of the significance of the season us w Christian anniversary Is to be completely blotied out, In this way, the Boviet lenders hope to stamp out Christmas and, at the same time, to stamp ont rells glon In thelr country, This Is a vielent resetion for the Russian people, for, through wll their history they have been of & vielently religlous nature, responding wholeheartedly to the appeals of religion, and ah- serving thelr rites gnd ceremonies to the point of being morbid, The simple peasantry of Russin of the old days found In thelr religlon thelr great eons fort amidst the oppression of Cearlstle tyranny, and through all the literature of these days thers runs the strain of a mystic falth In an all-seeing und all understanding God, Such religlous bellefs and religious faith are too deeply rooted to be stamped out merely by a governs mental order, Religlon has been bred into these peos ple from generation to generation, und, us has been the ease in centuries long gone, and In other couns tries, efforts to suppress rellglon may yet bring shout a wlorlous and Irresistible revival of the expression of thelr faith, Meanwhile, If they but knew It, the Soviet rulers of Russia are paving the way for thelr own downfall, It has been truly sald, "Where there Is no vision the people perish" It is possible to amplify that te hit the Russian situation, and to say, "Where there Is no religion the people perish" The religion of & people 1s the foundation on which Is bullt a healthy national life, 8 national life that can stand the test of time and elreumstances, and by removing religion from the life of the people of Russia, the Soviet leaders ure taking from them the one thing to which they eould hold fast In the hepe of
