Today, as on that first Christ mas, and as those first worshippers, we are preparing to pay our homage to Him, the Child in the manger; yet how differ ent will be our gifts, and yet, one can’t help thinking of how much more worth, spiritually, if not materially. True, there will be many who will “have no room for them" in their hearts; those who will not pay homage to Him this year, for the Star of Bethlehem, pointing the way to the manger, will not be visible to many parts of the world, where it is blotted out by the clouds of war, but how much brighter it will shine for us, we, who are still at peace with our fellowmen. —M. R. . . THEN WE ARE IGNORANT” LECOIN FRANCAiS Les vacances de Noel approchent, et tout le monde a I’air d’attente. Peut-etre pense-t-on ^ I’arbe de Noel-cette grosse branche de sapin qu’ou s’amuse i orner, ou peut- etre pense-t-on a la gaietS et k 1’esprit de la saison. Cat Esprit se luontre partout. En ville on voit de brillantes couleurs — rouge, vert, jaune, et beaucoup d’autres. II y a beaucoup de houx suspendu au-dessus des rues, et il y a dea lumiferes qui eelatent gaiment la nuit. Dans les vitviness des boutiques on voit beaucoup de cadeaux, et souvent il y a un St. Nicolas. Quelque fois on y voit des poupees, habillees joliment et dSlicatement, pour don- ner a quelque petite fille. II y a aussi des choses pour les gargons- en effect, il y ^ quelque chose pour tout le monde k qui on voudrait donner un cadeau. Toutes les vitri- nes sont dficor^es gaiment des coul eurs de la saison. En somme, ces choses donnent h la ville I’air de fete, et on peut s’amuser a aller en ville, et ^ re- garder les vitrines, m§me si on ne , eut rien acheter. BARD’S BOX When I consider every thing that grows Holds in perfection but a little moment, That this huge stage presenteth naught but shows Whereon the stars in secret influence comment; When I perceive that men as plants increase. Cheered and checked even by the self-same sky, Vaunt in their youthful sap, at height decrease, And wear their brave state out of memory: Then the conceit of this inconstant stay Sets you most rich in youth before my sight, Where wasteful Time debateth with Decay, To change your day of youth to sullied night; • • « • That time of year thou may ’st in me behold When yellow leaves, or none, or few, do hang Upon those boughs which shake against the cold, Bare ruined choirs, where late the sweet birds sang. In me thou see’st the twilight of such day As after sunset fadeth in the west; Which by and by black night doth take away, Death’s second self, that seals up all the rest. In me thou see’st the glowing of such fire, That on the ashes of his youth doth lie. As the death-bed whereon it must expire, —(Shakespeare Sonnets). § The most apparent characteristic of students today is their mental and emotional confusion. This bewilderment is behind much of the bravado which might convince our indig nant elders that they were justified in calling us to task for our indifferene, ignoance and apathy. We are not apathetic. Neither are we indifferent. If having learned our lesson well is igno- ranc, then we are ignorant. All our lives we have been indoctrinated with absolute pacifism. Our parents, filled with horror at the last war and its outcome ( imbued us with a real aversion to war. Later in school and in college we were told that n(? cause, however great, was worth the sacrifice of so many lives, and for this we were given historical proofs. The effect of twenty years of indoctrination cannot be wiped away in two months. We had been taught to beware of speeches and beating drums. Is it surprising that now we do not know what to believe ? Instead of jensuring us or playing with our emotions, should not those responsible for our education try to give us understanding of the dilemma in which we have been placed? We do not expect sure and quick solutions of age-long prob lems. We would ask our teachers to speak judiciously, with tolerance, and with emphasis on the long view. —Smith Weekly.

MOEAL FOB THE WEEK: No matter how grouchy you’re feeling, You’ll find the smile more or less healing. All around the front teeth, It grows in a wreath Thus preserving the face from congealing. THE “Y’s” WORK DOUBT When I see a delicate flower Opening its face to the light, When I glimpse the golden sunshine Pushing away the night, When I hear the beautiful music Which radio swiftly sends. When I grasp with calm assurance The hands of loyal friends, Can I doubt that there is a God? —Martha M, Boutwell Wellesley ’42.
