Peace on Earth? Christmas, 194i, is here! And with it there is war, hate and . greed.

These are so foreign to the festival of the birthday of the Prince of Peace. Even to speak of avarice seems strange and out of place at such a season. And yet now, no lips are. bent in messages of peace to all man~ kind, for men the world over have committed outrages which demand that the price of evil should be paid.

So, then, peace ·between nations must be laid away, but will there be no peace this Christmas Day? Peace can be found, it can be felt only within the heart. Wherever the weeds of hate and avidity have taken root, may they be wiped out. Let us in our inner life ha:ve calm and quiet. The future must be faced with hope and that calls for serenity of mind.

~~~~-·~~~~-

There Is A Santa Clause · When we became older and were told by the "big kids" that there was

no santa, we were surprised and very much disappointed, ,but we now rea:lize that there is a lot involved in that spirit (Saint NicholaS').

We know he stands for love, peace, sacrifice, ambition and hope. It doesn't matter whether one is 2 or 50, the great loving spirit of Christmas can reign over his yuletide season.

This spirit is especially important and necessary during these times of great dema:nds, worries, upheavals, spying, ·and the great catastrophe, the present war; so Santa should be immortalized and his morals practiced more and more that we may all believe that there is a Santai Claus.

~~~~-·~~~~-

Let's Pull Together Team spirit is necessary for the success o:f any team. Backing the

players 100% in all their games always helps breed victory. The game of war is no exception! On the contrary, it is even more important be­cause the "players" have to fight just a little bit harder and with a greater degree of earnestness and determination ultmately to come through.

Our Hopes Lie In New Year Today, after a period of peace lasting twenty-three years and one

month, the United States, our United States, is plunged into another great struggle to preserve the rights and privileges to which we, as Americans, feel ourselves entitled. This last move of out and out war on the part of our government, after futile efforts to obtain peace, mark­ed the greatest development of this present World War, and the end Qf our hopes for settlement of this brutal affair within a short time.

As we look back over the year 1941 filled with its worid-wide strife, suffering and heartbreaks, we cannot but hope that this new year will not die before peace has again been established on earth-not .a flimsy peace of harsh words, one which might eventually lead to another world conflict-but a lasting peace worked out to provide for the welfare of ALL nations alike, and a peace based on a common understanding and a desire to maintain this new peace forever and ever.

Crime Doesn't Pay, Boys , from Santa's Bag I Want ...

In France Christmas ·Eve in the homes is the scene , of much gay activiltY'. Tihe people have a big hol­iday supper and make merry over the burning of the Yule log or su~ as they call it. As the clock strikes midnight the C!hrurch bells ring out and everyone becomes solemn and hurr ies off to churclh to celebrate the Nbel. :After ithe church service the villagers return home, eat again and become very joyous and some­times the celebration Iiasts until morning. The children are not for­gotten for tiheir shoes a re fi.1led with sugar plums.

In Holland the yowig fell.ows meet in the village square dressed in fantastic costumes. They choose a star bearer who carries a lantern ·in the sha.pe of a star and !holding many lii.ghted candles. He leads them througlh the streets singing "Gloria in Excellis."

I just came back from a lovely trip along the milky way. And there I saw . .. guess who? santa Claus ! He told me to ask some of the twerps what they would like to have for Christmas. Here are some of the replies that I received when I put the question up to them : ·

Lois Field-A long stocking would not hold what I want, but a pair of socks would.

"Percy" Van Sickle-One of those cute talking dollls.

Zeke Steffel-Just give me a beard and an electric razor for future use.

The Clippers had an excellent pair of rebounders Mi HollilJlger and Patchen, one of the main reasons that .tlhey stayed in the game as long as they did. How­ever, the Columbiana offensive star, Firestone, had a -tough night of it as ihe only got five points all on free throws. As usual it was "Tut" Guappone and "Goose" McGaffick that were assigned the tough defen­sive assignment as well as car­rying tlhe brunt of the offense. Both performed creditably as did the entire team. One of the bright spots Of the game was that C'arl Capel shook off the "game jiUers."

THE QUAKER

Hag. Haggles With Date At Game

Well, here I am at the basketball game. I finally persuaded Archie to bring me.

Why, tihere's Ella Kat with a hat like mine. Her's isn't nearly as nice looking, do you think so, Archie?

Archie seems awfully engrossed in something. Oh, the game must have started. My, isn't that silly, just throwing the ball back and forth? Why that poor boy, they're chasing him! It must -be because he !has the basketba:ll. That is the basketball, isn't it, Archie?

Oh look at that silly man run­ning around the floor with a whistle in his .mouth. That screeching whistle! What's that, Archie? Someone just shot a fowl? Those mean things-to shoot a poor little bird!

Well, for heaven's sake! They're going to let that boy throw the ·ball at that thing called a basket, all by himself. Isn't that nice, Archie? He missed it. Oh, goody, they're go­ing to let him try again.

Archie, do you suppose we'll be here very long?, That poor boy may not get the ball in the basket for a long time.

qh dear, there goes my hat through the bleechers. Never mind Archie, I'll g~t it! ' My goodness, my foot slipped! I'm going right down through the bleechers! What embarrassment! Ouch!

Here's my hat, right beside me! Oh, here I am, Archie. No, I'm not hurt. What-the game's over?

It doesn't really . m atter does it Archie, I liked the game; really I did. Do you suppose we can come next week? Huh ... Archie?
