'THE
A LIGHT THAT WILL ALWAYS SHINE
* In the hearts of men, women and children
in this Canada of ours gleams a light that.
will never be dimmed. Its flame is fed by
an inward spirit of, determination to put
down• tyranny at the cost of any sacrifice;
to enthrone freeedom everywhere.
* One by one, in countries all over the world,
the light of liberty has "gone out', but here,
it is Christmas.
* True, outside of our homes there is less
artificial glitter than of old, but because of
that, the lights in our war industries shine
brighter and there is more power available
to make tools that will the sooner diffuse
the light of liberty "over there".
* And so, though our Christmas may be
a little less bright to the eye, within our
hearts and our homes the light of a great
purpose is aflame. The comparatively small
sacrifices we make to conserve electricity will
make more ships, guns, planes and tanks to
speed the coming of Peace and Good Will
to all the world.
