Brown in his first Christmas message as The Salvation Army's newly-appointed national leader suggests that he would rather Canadians understand the meaning of the carols that will be played and sung by the The Army's musicians throughout the festive season, than that they put $5 in the Christmas kettle or in the collector's box, Not, he says, that he is anxious to lose dollars for the Christmas and winter relief of the needy,. but that there is something more to the celeb"ation of Christmas than a lot of self-pleasure and a little self-denial on behalf of the less, fortunate. Actually, he feels, the whole meaning of Christmas needs to be restated. He wishes he had enough Salvationists to stand at every street corner in Canada to proclaim it in the simplest of terms. He is certain that Canada needs such a message. He predicts that Christmas 1974 will likely register an increase in what he calls "the tragedies of af- fluence." Christmas will, he is afraid, provide one more outlet for a prodigal indulgence made possible by ever-increasing in- come despite increasong costs. The stresses to which the 1974 individual is subject, ac- cording to the Commissioner, makes him grasp at any oc- casion when he can, by one means or another, forget the pressures of, life, escape, from. the challenges of competitive commerce and lose himself in a dangerous miasma of merrymaking, often without thought of the consequences to himself, his family or the world around him. He needs to know Christmas not as a day - or week - for "living it up", but as a time for remembering the "life more abundant" that Christ came to bring, Faith in Christ, says Com- missioner Brown puts things into proper perspective. Life is Seen as it really is, an existence in which demonic forces would destroy man's highest aspirations and drag him into a spiritual dungeon from which any escape is better than none. With faith, however, comes stability, confidence, and the knowledge that one is on God's side, and that He is the final victor. If one stops to listen, that is the message of every true Christmas carol. The word "true" is important, says the Commissioner. We are not thinking of the "red-nosed rein- deers", or any other kind of red noses, celebrated in some seasonal songs. We are thinkirig of those words and music that celebrate a Saviour's birth; for, if we are completely honest, that's what this old, tired, sad, and often wicked world needs more than anything• else, a Saviour. lit needs to be saved from itself; it needs to be saved to righteousness and peace and all the other shining virtues and high qualities which the world saw, for a brief thirty-three years, in Jesus, but which mankind can still claim through faith in Him.
