A f e w d a y s ago I r e a d an article in t h e December issue of the Atiantie Monthly which seemed to me m o s t a p p r o p r i a t e f o r t h e C h r i s t mas season. I t w a s called " T h e Guilty Ones," and w a s w r i t t e n by the renowned c o n t e m p o r a r y J e w ish novelist, Sholem Asch. Mr. C h r i s t m a s Chocolate is t h e DeAsch is f a m i l i a r to m o s t of us as cember f e a t u r e of the W o m e n ' s the a u t h o r of t h e recent novel, Activities League. It is to be held "The N a z a r e n e . " in Voorhees Hall f r o m 3:30 to 5:30 • on T h u r s d a y a f t e r n o o n , Dec. 19.

question of t h e i r religion. But w h a t seems of mo re significance to me is the introduction of the article in which Asch describes s o m e t h i n g of his boyhood in a small Polish town.

T h e chocolate is a novel t w i s t to the o r d i n a r y tea and all girls of the college are invited to a t t e n d . Each is asked to bring a ten-cent g i f t which will l a t e r be s e n t to Holland High school f o r distribution with t h e i r C h r i s t m a s baskets.

JEWS. GENTILES, L I V E IN H A R M O N Y Generally, he relates, the J e w ish and the Gentile i n h a b i t a n t s of the town lived t o g e t h e r in peaceful h a r m o n y . A t C h r i s t m a s the Christian section of the populace, a n i m a t e d by the spirit of good will, saw no reason to exclude t h e i r Jewish fellow-townsmen f r o m the benefits of their own popular sentiment. But d u r i n g the E a s t e r season conditions were g r e a t l y altered. Relations between the two g r o u p s were strained. It was unwise—yes, even d a n g e r o u s — f o r a Jew to a p p e a r on the s t r e e t in this period. Asch himself, as a boy of nine o r ten, was brutally pummeled by a g r o u p of boys of his own age, the children of Christian parents, who accused him of killing Christ. This, to me, is a vivid illustration of a c o m m o n

weakness a m o n g

Christians. Not t h a t Christianity is in any way a t f a u l t . The blame falls upon us as individuals. It is so easy f o r u s to allow ourselves to be carried a w a y by the prevailing spirit of today and to f o r g e t about it tomorrow. Then along comes a new g u s t f r o m a n o t h e r direction, and a w a y we go with it. KINDLINESS MUST OUTLAST ENTHUSIASM E n t h u s i a s m in itself may be a good thing. F o r example, the spirit shown at the recent Mission Drive was most commendable. Christian charity w a s ranked by Paul as the g r e a t e s t of Christian virtues. But a display of kindliness today, followed by a feeling of bitter animosity tomorrow, is not true c h a r i t y . Similarly, it is not difficult f o r us to r a d i a t e good will during this p r e - C h r i s t m a s season as we prepare our best smiles and practice calling out " M e r r y C h r i s t m a s " in our most joyful tones. But how m a n y of us will have even a f r a c tion of t h a t spirit r e m a i n i n g by New Year's E v e ? Will we have nothing l e f t but a dry residue of the enthusiasm, the best having burned out in a f e w short d a y s ? P R E S E N T RELIGION IS TOO U N C O N S C I O U S The f a u l t of the m a t t e r is t h a t we a r e conscious of so little of our religion a t any given time. A t C h r i s t m a s we think of kindliness and giving; at E a s t e r we are awed by t h e sacrifice and f o r g e t kindliness; at T h a n k s g i v i n g we think of the benefits we have received and f o r g e t the s e n t i m e n t s of both the previous holidays. Is it s u r p r i s i n g t h a t when our e n t h u s i a s m is centered in one n a r row sentiment a t a time it flares f o r a brief m o m e n t and then dies o u t ? Our aim a t this C h r i s t m a s season should be to be conscious of the whole spirit of Christianity. Then p e r h a p s we will retain some of o u r C h r i s t m a s enthusiasm, even until s p r i n g vacation. o

Where Is Our Cooperation? L a s t spring, the president of o u r college discussed with a g r o u p of t w e n t y coeds t h e possibilities of alleviating f r o m our campus certain evils, which include t h e weekly j a u n t s to Saugatuck and the associated practiced. No decision was reached at t h i s meeting, but it was suggested t h a t we have more popular e n t e r t a i n m e n t s on our campus. As Montesquieu, t h e French social scientist, said, one custom h a s to replace a n o t h e r in order to c h a n g e it or banish it. T h i s year, when endeavors a r e made on the p a r t of t h e s t u d e n t s to provide this t y p e of e n t e r t a i n m e n t on t h e campus, objections a r e made to holding t h e m on week nights. No more than one joint f r a t e r n i t y - s o r o r i t y meeting is allowed each semester. Small p a r t i e s held by sororities and f r a t e r nities are forbidden. We want cooperation f r o m the entire c a m p u s in promoting these affairs so t h a t we can provide popular e n t e r t a i n m e n t at home. If t h e whole s t u d e n t body cooperated, e f f o r t s could be made to enlarge t h e program on Hope's campus. L. T.

Not Uncle Shylock Since the beginning of World W a r II, American t h i n k e r s have been s a y i n g t h a t the time would come when Britain would again be asking f o r credit h e r e in order to continue her war purchasing, and now the t i m e h a s come. It is estimated t h a t within a y e a r Britain will be unable to stand the financial s t r a i n of a war t h a t is costing h e r more t h a n one millions dollars a day to keep going, and between now and t h a t time, t h e pressure on us f o r war credits will increase. Even if we assume t h a t Britain is fighting in our interests, we are going to get into trouble by loaning her money. Disharmony between our countries will s p r i n g up if we make loans when we know t h a t t h e over-taxed British will never be able to repay us. For this reason, g r a n t e d t h a t we m u s t give financial assistance, we should r a t h e r g r a n t her capital as a subsidy f o r c a r r y i n g on a war in our interest, or take capital goods f r o m her f o r what we give.

Have we then in t h h highly enlightened age progressed not a step f r o m t h e w a r r i o r s of those unenlightened d a y s ? Theii lives were ruled by the w r a t h ol God. Today the life of C h r i s t i a n i t y is rooted deep in t h e love of Christ, whose whole life a n d every s t a t e m e n t is a clear revelation of pacifism a t work.
