"Christmas belongs to the children, but it also belongs to men who are child-like," Dr. Baxter said distinguishing, however, between one who is child-like and one who is childish.

Humility, also, was mentioned by the speaker as an essential attribute of the man who lives right. This does not mean, he said, weakness. "The meek man, on the other hand, is a strong man, who has himself under control," hs said. Dr.

Baxter concluded with the assertion that if he observes the day's true spirit "at Christmas a man closer to that which he ought to be."

The latest wreck, in Karlsruhe, brought the number to eight in the last 10 weeks, with total casualties of 238 dead and 200 injured, Although the rail officials involved in the Karlsruhe wreck were arrested, there was no indication of, sabotage. The wreck were attributed to the general depreciation of rolling stock and scarcity of equipment, which war conditions have made impossible to remedy.
