CROSS ROLL Scoffers '' Scoffers can no longer get away with scoffing. Americans realize, in every city and hamlet of the nation, that we are in danger-a- nd anyone who tries to belittle that fact is now considered a fool. It hardly seems possible yetjhat the Germans or Japanese could jockey their air force into a position where they could do serious military damage in this country. But it is quite probable that the Axis powers figure that a few scare bombs dropped on our cities would be enough to make the people of the country insist that the govemmerVtop shipping armaments abroad and keep them all for our own use. It would be a natural reaction of many of our po6ple to make this demand on the President Probably many have offered this suggestion already. -- It therefore seems important that the people of this country should make up their minds to refrain from being a nation of generals" that we should leave the questions of military strategy entirely in the hands of the President and the military officials who know the situation and who know what is best to be done. It is true that ours is a government by the people, but if the people try to influence our military actions we will simply be inviting disaster. We have elected the men who will lead us and we must now put our entire faith in them. , .

At first it seem- be provided to the enemy, PresiThe councils feel the call is urdent Roosevelt contemplates that hollow ed like a mockery of the holiday season when there is peace on so few parts of the earth and when men and nations are scheming to plan each others downfalL But as we analyze that message, most of us realize it expresses the thing we are all hoping for more than anything else. We want peace on earth and we want men of all nations to lb e together in spirit of good will. The bombings, the mass killings, the suffering and the destruction which makes the news of the day, merely strengthen our desire for the time when we will all live together peacefully. One of the strangest things our search for peace is The fact ttvat the path to it is often a warpath. To fight for peace has always seemed a contradiction but in all the years mankind has longed for peace there have been men and nations which stood in the way. And it has always seemed necessary to defeat those enemies before any permanent peace could be established. Hence one of the chief aims of every war has been to bring about a more durable peace. No solution other than fighting for peace has ever been worked out. But during the Christmas season we all realize more than at any other time that a world at peace means a world which is living according to the teachings of Christ. We celebrate the birthday of Christ all over the world because most all people realize that he showed us a way of life which can result in peace on eartn, good will toward men. In celebrating his birthday this year let us hope that the people in all nations will become more aware than ever before of the need for following the plan of life which he revealed almost 2,000 years ago. . Week Entering the Third on on the sea, Deeds of valor, the land, in the sky; by United States forces and Philippine forces; losses by the enemy and these things some gains by us-- all marked the first weekend of the war. To recount all the events here. would be to repeat the news columns. Most notable of all, is the totally changed attitude of the American people. Stunned, at first, with the enormity of the attack, we have set about preparing ourselves to- meet the onslaught which we know must be inevitable. Preparations must include every household. People, instead of living their own lives in their own way, will be obliged to make their living habits conform with rules which the government lays down for our own protection. Criticism of the government in respect to the war ought to be withheld. We shall have to leave our defense to the regularly constituted authorities, and obey orders. We are due for hardening and toughening. - FOying, . er but-tere- at COPPER CO. BUILDS HUGE SKATING RINK newspapers will learn from families in their areas.
