THE GLEANER QBABAlf, N. 0.. DEC. 32, 1938 inUID ITIBT THCBIOAT J. D. KERNODLE, Editor $1.00 A YEAR, IN ADVANCE KsWrad at th< Poctoffloe at Orftbam, N. C., aa aaeonl-elaM matter. Christmas. The emblem of "Peace on earth, good-will to all men" is Christmas, the anniversary cel ebrated as the day oh which a Savior of the world was born in Bethlehem of Judea. He was a gift by the Creator to the world for the redemption of the human race according to prom ise. At the advent Wise men fol lowed His star to His birthplace, carrying rich gifts. Hence the anniversary ever since has been the day of gifts, good will. It is also a day, in more re cent times, on which the family cirple is re-cemented and joyous greetings are extended. May all in some way contrive to make those about them glad and happy. It is a holy day that should be observed with seemly rev erence. Pan-American Policy In the Pan-American parley in Lima, Peru, all is not in ac cord, bnt the representatives of the 21 American republics are striving to work out an agree ment that shall save them from a spectacle such as is now going on in Europe an<Ttfther parts of the world. When the United States was formed there were disagreements and diverse views. Concessions were made, and the result is that now the United States is the greatest Republic on earth and the rich eat country ? a country in which the individual enjoys more free dom than in any country in the whole world. Proposals have been made to which there are objections, not ' for any self-seeking advantage, but for the protection and pro motion of tiie best interests of all. All seem Agreed that a one thing must be the prevention of aggression from within and from without, especially from without The "Monroe Doctrine" is in favor, beoauso all recognize that for a century it has saved some of the weaker countries from foreign domination. It will be a great day in his tory, if vital differences can be composed and ironed out. Just what Anthony Eden's mission to this country was or who sent him is not definitely known. He met the President and talked with him. That's about all anyone knows. He is now back in London, and is not talking for publication, but there is nothing to indicate that be is displeased with what he heard and saw. The Nazi German Govern ment is reported making over tures to the United States along , trade lines. On account of the Nasi policies ? territorial ag grandisement, Jewish oppres sion, etcetera, so many nations have~iost confidence in Hitler's empire and hare curtailed their taade relations, that Germany Is feeling it acutely. Every Country should beware of Ger many's fawning. It means all for Germany ? no special good to any who grant concessions. China has gained ground against Japan's invasion in recent days. Japan is offended that the United States is favoring China financially. Of course! Don't* (or ? Merry Christmas A Merry Christmas to you and yours! Aud remember ? it cau'l be merry unless it's safe. Fire is the great hazard of the holiday season. It has tuned many a gladsome celebratiju into a horrible tragedy; for the victims of holiday fires are ueually eh i * dren. So ? here are some dou'w for the holidays that will pay you tremendous dividends in the coin of happiness and safety. Don't use candles on your Christmas tree. The tree itself is highly inflammable aud it, to gether with tinsel decorations placed near blames, may causi; a holocaust in your home. Electric light sets are inexpensive, safe aid satisfoctory. Don't permit children dressed in flimsy cloth or paper holiday costumee to be in a room with op^D flame of any kind. Fatai burns can be suffered in an in credibly brief period of time. Don't give children gifts that require the use of explosive chemicals, fire, steam or other hazardous elements. Don't allow a mess of discarded Christmas package wrappings to accumulate. A carelessly dis posed match or cigarette may cause them to burst into a fire that will switfly get out of con trol. Dry Christmss trees presont a major hazard ? dispose of yours M soon as the holidays are over. And ? last but not least ? don't take a chance of any kind. Be constantly alert. Have yonr fun safely. European War Power Europe's armies are much larg er now than in 1914. Rnssi i has almost 20,000,000 men in ber forces today, as against 4,000,000 then. France has 6,200,000, as against 1,380,000. Britain has U1<S, 000, as against 808, 000. Italy has 7,125,000, as agai net "2,000, - 000. Only one central power, curiously enough, has no great ly Increased forces ? Germany, with 3,600,000 soldiers now, as against 3,350, 000 These figures include reserves. ? Nam* Chloe of Greek Origin The name Chloe, of Greek origin, means "blooming" or "verdant." It waa the summer name of Demeter, the Greek goddess of agriculture and poeta have often used it as a name 1or a shepherdess or rustic maiden. St. Paul mentions a Chloe of Corinthia. Although pretty and melodious, Chloe has never been in common use and no prominent bear ers of it have been found in the archives of history. NOTICE!
