Henderson, The following is the text of the King’s Christmas Day message from Sandringham to hi?- Empire; The festival which we know as Christmas is above all a festival of peace and: of the home. Among all free peoples love of peace is profound,, for this alone gives security to the home. But true peace is in the hearts of men and it is the tragedy of this time that there are powerful countries £ ■ whose whole direction and policy are % based on .aggression and the suppres- | sion of all we hold dear for mankind. £ | It is this that has stirred our peo- a pies and given them a unity unknown , in any previous war. We have the | feeling in our hearts that we are fight­ ing against wickedness and this con­ viction will give us strength from day to day to persevere until victory is as­ sured. ' /. At home we are, as it were, taking the strain for what may lie ahead of us, resolved and confident. We look with pride and thankfulness on the never-failing courage and devotion of the Royal Navy, on which throughout the 'last four months has burst the storm of ruthless and unceasing war. And when I speak of our navy to- | day, I mean all the men of our em- Haines and Pire wll° °° <lown t0 the sea in shiPs> Clarksburg, •t^ie rnei-cantile marine, mine sweepers, trawlers and drifters, from senior of- | ficer to the last boy who has joined -f.

Miss Eadie was born in the house in which she died, *at Lot 16, Concession 10, Turnberry," and spent her entire life there except for two years when she visited her sisters in British Columbia. She was the daugh­ ter of the late Thomas Eadie and Ag* n^rfMtchell, pioneers of the town- IShE .She was a member of Wing- ™“Wnited Girardi, but prior to un­ ■ tion with the navy, is our sure shield of defence. They are daily adding laurels to those that their fathers won. * I would send a special word of greeting to the armies of the Empire, to those who have come from afar and in particular to the British Ex­ peditionary Force. Their task is hard. • They are waiting. Waiting is a trial of nerves and discipline. But I know that when the time comes for action they will prove themselves worthy of the highest-traditions of their great services. To all who are preparing themselv­ es to serve their country on sea or land or in the air I send my greetings at this time. .The men and women of I our far-flung Empire working in their 'several vocations with the one same purpose all are members of a great family of nations which .is prepared tp sacrifice everything that freedom of the spirit may be saved to thte world. Such is the spirit of the Empire, of the great dominions, of''India, of ev­ ery colony, large or small, from all alike have come offers of help, for which the mother’ country can never be sufficiently grateful. For Chrstian Civilization Such unity in aim and in effort has- never been seen in the world before. I believe from my heart that the cause which binds together my peo­ ples and our gallant and faithful Al­ lies is the cause of Christian civiliza­ tion. On no other basis can true civ­ ilization be built. Let us remember this through the dark times ahead of us and when we are making the peace for which all men pray. The new year is at hand. We can­ not tell what it will bring. If’it brings peace, how'thankful we shall be. is brings us continued struggle, shall remain undaunted. Meanwhile I feel that we may find a message of encouragement in lines which, in my closing words, I would like to read to you: JII said to a man who stood at the gate of the year, 'Give me a light that I may tread safely into the unknown,* and he replied, “Go out into the dark­ ness and put your hand into the hand of God. That shall ,be to you better than light and safer than the known way’,” May that Almighty hand guide and uphold us alt CHRISTMAS MEETING OF HIGH SCHOOL LIT.
