(By Associated Press)
LONDON, Dec. 24.—J H. Thomas,
head of the National union of railway
men of Great Britain, who has just
returned from a visit to the British
front in France, has sent the follow
ing report of his visit to the members
of his organization:
It would be untrue to suggest that
our soldiers do not wish the war to
end. Clearly they do. They would be
less than human if they did not. hav
ing regard to what they have exper
ienced. But it is also true that the
feeling uppermost in their minds is
that there must be no repetition of
this hell, that their children must not
experience what they are now exper
iencing, and that therefore we must
haye a peace that will be conclusive
and lasting. Everywhere among of
ficers and men alike, there is a very
marked optimism that shows clearly
that they feel themselves masters of
the German.”

The Mother9s
Christmas Gift
It never comes to Christmas but I
think about the times
We used to save our pennies and
our nickels and our dimes,
And we bunched them all together,
even little baby brother
Put in something for the present that
we always gave to mother.
Ve began to talk about it very early
in December,
Twas a very serious matter to us
children, I remember,
And we used ta whisper nightly our
suggestions to each other,
For by nothing cheap and tawdry
could we show our love for
mother.
Hers must be a gift of beauty, fit to
symbolize her ways;
It must represent the sweetness and
the love that marked her days.
It must be the best our money, all
combined, had power to buy,
And Le something that she longed
for; coining else would satisfy.
d hen it mattered not the leken, once
t;.e purchase had been made,
ft v,as smuggled heme and hidden '
and with ether treasures laid,
*nd we placed our present proudly
in her lap on Christmas day,
“d we smothered her with kisse3
and we laughed her tears away.
It never comes to Christmas but 11
think about the times
Wc ujed to save cur pennies and
our nickels and our dimes,
the only folks I envy are the
r sisters and the brothers
^tio suil have the precious privilege
of buying for their r« others.
