That is the ?< i -j rui?. We do things ^4!^k like mechunlcol 6 . ^ toys, without ask;e ' "' ing the why and T; wherefore. We folg.i low like sheep the leadership of some 1- foolish friend who either hus more ?si cents and l\?ss sense than the average, ,e because we are the slaves of custom. , ' I Christmas is the season for the Christ! Child?when simplicity und sincerity should dominate love of ostentation v| and all pretense. It is hard in this * day of luxury to experience a new sen- j is. Ration; for children are sated on the r, threshold of life with gifts that would y,|ha\e astonished George Washington p and taken away the breath of little 8 j backwoods Abraham Lincoln. It is no '! use telling your child to eat his red ' apple and suck his stick of candy with ^ j a thankful heart If little Bobble next ; door owns a motorcycle and u real pig1 sk^i. Precious poor fun will your lit y j tie Mary Jane And in her rag baby K a Inez Dorrls has a bisque French doll jj that can talk. And so we are happy or p_| mlserahle, poor or rich by contrast; ^ those comparisons thnt are obvious If , ! odious, ie y Yule Log It Gone. j.j The old-fashioned seuson of fua and I frolic has been replaced by a meantagj less, mirthless celebration. The Yule log has gone out. and there is no fireia place for old Santa Claus to scramble i ln down and leave his gifts of simple Joys for unsuspecting childhood. The j steam-heated home, the sterilized urk. chin, the pure-food laws, all forbid the ' m painted sugar cots and dogs whose iS green hacks would have put any parn rot to shame. * Yet how beuutlful in retrospect Is uit* memory cr some unrtstmas of the, long ago. when, like Tiny Tim, who gathered around the simple table and J- looked forward with Joy to the home-1 ,t, coming of all the fnmlly, the wondery ful dinner of goose und the loving greeting, "God bless us all i" That was a wealth such as no Scrooge could n? possibly buy! That was the spirit 2. which prompted Dickens to suy, n. "Though it has never put a scrap of gold or silver in my pocket, 1 believe 10 it has done me good, and I say, 'God e bless It!"' a We Should Hang Garlands. The singing of carols In Kngllsh vllIages was a good old custom and ought s | to be revived, as well as the lighting I of the Yule log on Christmas eve, for ! the memory of the Kngllsh Christmas ' 11 lingers ever in the British heart, wher- | )e ever he may be. In the early days at Jamestowu, Va., the cradle of Kngllsh civilization on this western continent, John Smith says: "The extreme cold, i0| frost, rain and snow caused us to keep Jc, Christmas among the savages, where r we were never more merry nor hnd more good oysters, ilsh, flesh, wild fowl 8" nnd good bread nor ever had b*.t(l i tor fires In Knglnnd." Kipling, too, H refers to fhe memory of Yuletlde in his r., "Black Sheep" with the couplet, "At s, | home they are making merry, twlxt fhe white and scarlet berry." And so ,j we should garland the house with trall^ Ing pine, hang tiie wreaths of holly in tlie window and the mistletoe 'neath the chandelier. It helps others if It ' does not help you. Boston's Fine Example. Lnst Christmas In Boston the mayor requested everyone In the city to leave , their window shades up on Christmas j eve to help light the city. Such a le cheerful glow as It gave to old Bea-! i-, con street and Commonwealth avenue I j ,0: Down In the I'ubllc gardens the city r. J was enjoying Its municipal Christmas j tree, a stately fir, bedecked with myrl- j '; ad colored electric bulbs, while the band played old familiar carols that ! veered Into popular street songs be " I fore the crowd scattered. The scene ?! | was significant of Christmas now bea lng a cosmopolitan festival holding i. the heart of Ihiritan New Kngland, whose holy of holies has heretofore ,^1 been Thanksgiving. This Is right, and as It should be, since ours Is a land of religions liberty and Christmas Is the season of "peace and good will , to all mankind." e ' MARSHAL OYAMA AT x' KXI> OF CARKRR It ?o?
