SOCIETY


When we greet you again, Christmas will have come and gone and New Year resolutions will be in order Peace on earth, good wifi 10 men" is Q sentcnce fuh of meaning To all, for at least one day in the year. The hungry are ieI; tho poor are clothed.
 Those to whom the good things nf the earth seem but a mere tradition, yet look forward to a little lifting of the cloud of adversity at the blessed Chris mastide. It is a season looked forward to with universal expectancy by young and old alike.
 A time when friend sreets f.iend with a renewal of the bonIs of ir,i- macy; when even the hands of enemIss are claspod across the hospicable beard and loving words of peace and :Orgive- ness are spoken.
 It Is the one day when the spirit of love goes forth to all of Gods children, and 1t is because of this universal love that Christmas retains I,s hItd upon all when SO many other ancient GUS toms are dying out.
 One could wish that this spirit were extended over the remaining days of the year. but even one day given over to love, charity, forgiveness and gener- osity cannot fail to be productive Of good.
 This is the season when one dreads to express an opinion upon the merits of any article, lest it may have been in tended as a present for oneself
 When an invitation to go shopping with a friend Is not the harmless thing it seems, but is too frequently planned in advance with the hope of obtaining some expression of admiration which can be used by the weary Christmas shopper in order to Tighten her load of responsibility.
 It is a season of innocent deception. of transparent sudterfuge, when no questions are to be asked and every thing is to be accepted without com mcnt. If in passing out of the house we meet a relative coming in loaded with packages, we are supposed to see nothing, but with eyes fixed upon any

thing rather than the tell-tale par ce!s, We smiHngly pass on.
 Upon our return the bundles have disappeared, to be again produced upon Christmas morning and with loving words and kindest wishes be consigned to the loved ones for whom they were intended.
 It is essentially the children's holi- day and oh. how eagerly anticipated. To the little tots, Santa Claus is a household god who is perfectly ac- quainted with all their little shortcom- ings and who will reward or punish according to merit.
 And then on Christmas Eve, when the excited little mortals are put to bed and curly heads are buried in soft, white pillows.
 But the bright, eager eyes refuse to submit to the demands of the sand boys" and will not stay shut, but peep from under the covers, hoping, yet fearing to obtain a glimpse of their worshipped benefactor-santa Claus.
 A shiver of expectancy passes over each little rogue with every sound, but at length nature proves tCo strong for the tired little rebels, ard sweet sleep blots out the intervening hours until the gladdcst day Of all the year dawns for them, bright with the sunshine of love and gratifed desire.
 
 Again we make our bow and apolo- gize for the lack Of news in our de- partment. But if things won't hap pen" We can't report them.
 Now that the Christmas shopping is over we hope the ladies will set the bail a-rolling and be sure to send the word on to "Lillian,' telephone 2651.
 Driving and riding form the princi- pal recreations this beautiful weather. A number of small parties have made the trip to the orange groves during the past week, and all express them selves as having had a delightful drive.

fairs are always interesting and doubt less many Phoenix people vii! avail themselves of the opportunity thus of fered to spend a pleasant evening.
 
 On Thursday night the people of Tempe gave a reception and dance at the Hotel Atwood in honor of the visiting teachers. Refreshments were served and as the Hotel Atwood is noted for it's cuisine, doubtless this proved to be a very enjoyable feature of the evening. A great many people from Phoenix were present and all re- port Q very pleasant time.
 
 Those who were fortunate enough to be present at the entertainment given by the Society Minstrels' two years ago will appreciate the treat in store for them in the near future, if the la dies of Phoenix can be prevailed upon to again appear before the public. It is to be hoped, in ,.he interest of the amusement-loving public, that they will be sufficiently goCd-natured to ac- cede to the request of the carnival as sociation. that they may, in this way, assist in making up the deficiency in receipts during the recent carnival.
 
 The Country club has decided to hold it's gold tournament about the middle of January. This is a post ponement of one month from the orig inal plan, but will give ample time to perfect all arrangements and vii TO doubt conduce to the success of the un- dcrtaking.

The speech Of Mr. Bryan occupied
three quarters of an hour and dealt in

people were wild. The cheers lasted
fully ten minutes.
The parade to the park was partici

counter demonstration by placing on all

of Bryan enthusiasm. The Democrats

Bryan talked with everybody at the

got out a tiny laced pocket handkerchief,
but before she had had time to weep
much into 4 and spoil her pretty eyes
the doctor reappeared. accompanied by
Charles and Ralph. and we all learned to
our great relief that Sir George, though
undoubtedly i'll. was not dangerously so
at present, though the greatest care
would be necessary. Lady Mary had
undertaken the nursing of her brother
in-law, and in her the doctor expressed
the same confidence which parents are
wont to feel in n stern schoolmaster. In
the meantime the patient was to be kept
very quiet and on no account to be dis
turbed.
When the doctor had left Ralph and
Aurelia, who had actually seen nothing
of each other that morning, sauntered
away together toward the library.
Charles challenged Carr to finish his
game of billiards; and Marston and /
retired upstairs to the smoking room,
where we could talk over our Indian
experiences and perhaps doze undis-
turbed. We might have been SO occu-

Good gracious! Is he worse?" I ex-
claimed.
NO. Hush, Don't ask anything, but
just come" and he turned and led the
way to Sir George Danvers' room.
We followed in wondering silence, and
after passing along numerous passages
We're ushered into large oak paneled
room with great carved bed in 1T, in
the middle of which, bolt upright, sat
Sir George Danvers, pale as ivory, his
light steel eyes $50 like Charles) seeming
to be the only living thing about him.
As we came in he looked at each of US
in turn.
Where is Charles" he said, speaking
in hoarse whisper.
Dear me, Sir George" said, sym
pathetically, chow you have lost your
voice.

then turned to Ralph again.
Where is Charles:" he asked a second
time in the same tone.
Here said quiet voice. And

1t is very seldom / cannot sleep. but
l could not that night. There was some
thing in the intense quiet and repose of

of the last few hours, that oppressed me.
Everything seemed, as / lay awake. so

ball, of poor Charles and his debts-of
anything and everything, but it was no
good. In the midst of a tumble of dis
connected ideas suddenly found myself
listening again to the silence-listening
as if it had been broken by a sound
which / had not heard. My watch
licked loud and louder on the dressing
table, and presently gave quite start

and looked out.
The moon had set, but by the frosty
starlight the outline of the great snow
laden trees and the wide sweep of white
drive were still dimly visible. All was
silent without as within. Not a branch
moved or let fail its freight of snow.
There was not a breath of wind stirring.
1 was on the point of getting back into
bed when / thought in the distance l
heard a sound. / listened intently. No.
l must have been mistaken. All. again,
and nearer, | held my breath. i could
