But in spite of the lack of snow we are beginning to realize that Christ- mas_is coming soon. . Santa has made several appear- ances in nearby towns" and cities, and is scheduled to arrive in Port Perry in a. day or two. Our radio keeps reminding us that there only (7) shopping days before Christmas. But shopping is not the only pre- paration needed for Cliristmas. Along with the pile of parcels on the closet. shelves and the . heap of goodies mother is preparing for the festivities should go the prepaia- tion of our hearts and minds. Christmas is Christmas because it is the birthday of Christ who came to bring "peace on earth, goodwill toward men. £4 Scanning our daily news papers we find it hard to see much" of. either peace" ox goodwill. Fortunately (in 'mgke it their business to 'publisize the unusual claiming that our ordinary neighbor- iy lives are not news. . But goodwill - toward all men would be the most weltome news to every | home in our land. 'If we would organize for goodwilf --under the direction' of our best minds -- making everything else of secondary consideration including the acquisition .of money. and power -we- could surely achieve this great aim--goodwill .among natiohs; good- will in industry, between labour and management; goodwill among neigh- _ bors, C0f course many folk feel that this is nice to talk about, but that security must come first. Surely 'true good- will among men would be the great- est, security every known on this old earth. . "--M.F.B.

Hitler could never have risen to power if the League of Nations had been in truth a league of nations ,. he knew it for what it was, a preten- tious sham, and as such he swept it aside. Unless we make democracy a real and vital force in the life of the nations of the western world . Stalin will seek to do that Hitler 'at- tempted, and in so doing will probably profit by Hitler's mistakes of which he is"supremely aware, If there is one man who should know how to make us strong, it is the man who led our united armies in their final assault upon Nazi enslaved lurope -- General Dwight D. Eisen- hower. And this is what he has to say: + "The areas in which freedom flour- ishes will continle to shrink unless the supporters of democracy match com- munist fanaticism with a clear and common understanding that the free- dom.of men js at stake . . this may mean a- sacrifice of nationalistic pre- tensions; above all, we must annul communist appeals 3 the huigry, the poor, the oppressed with practical measures untiringly prosecuted for the elimination of social and economic evils that set men against men. ~ - As a world force democracy is sup- ported by nations that too much and too oftén act alone, each for itself alone.

Such division may lead to idealogical conquest. We believe individual liberty, root- ed in human dignity, is man's great- est treasure." We believe that this is a clear and terse statement of our present. world problem ...-.-we believe also that it is a clear directive to our governments, municipal, provineisl and federal . furthermore, it is a basic guide for all of us who claim to love democracy and a challenge to us to make it real . . or suffer the awful consequences of a collosal selfishness that would destroy. man's best hope for a better world. in the interests immediate in- dividual advantage If war comes we- i will be not. then less guilty than the Risin despots. --NM.M.B.

First, then, we would offer our congratulations an the establishing of your new honie and wish you both every enjoyment and happiness in the coming days. It is not possible for any two peo- ple to live in a community for as long atime as you have lived in Prospect without the effect of personality being felt by many of those with whom you have shared the common tagks, the common. joys and the not uncommon occasions when the sympathetic and understanding heart has been the' bond and seal of a good neighbour. We are quite aware of the fact that we live in a'world of change and some- times in the process of change we are apt to forget some of the things which "really ought to be remembered. New faces, riew voices, new. organizations are constantly appearing but we are 'old-fashioned enough to cling to some of the qualities which neither Time 'nor Circumstarices can change. When these qualities belong in peo- ple we find them giving outward ex- pressions in kindly .thoughts and deeds land so, not only one's own' life, but ~{also-the lives of others are enriched. We feel that both. of you have shown, in you'own every-day lives, the qualities of which we have spoken and since we have Scriptural authority for - the 'word of promise "Cast your bread upon the waters and after many days lit will return_unto you" we are confi- dent that inasmuch as you have given unto the growth and welfare of the community of 'which you have been so Jong a part, a full measure of reward will be yours. Church, School and Sabbath School' have all béen helped by your interest and loyalty. Those who have sat in your Bible Class, Mrs. Holliday, have been aware of your careful study and preparation and the sincere desire to well and effectively. the teachings of the Good Book.~The har- .vest of such sowing can only be count- ted by the Master when He shall come "bringing in the sheaves." In appreciation of your long years of devoted service and as a token of. the respect of your friends we would ask you to accept this gift with the wish that its light may be, to both of vou, a'reminder of the Light of Friend- ship which grows ever brighter with the passing years. = 2 Signed on behalf of the Woman's Association of Prospect United * Church... .
