 to pray and look upon us as of old, when you wished us a merry Christmas or happy new year! But, no! That would not be fair to call you back. You had troubles enough and aches enough and bereavements enough while you were here. Tarry by the throne, mother till we join you there, your prayers all an swered and in the eternal homestead of our God we shall again keep Christmas jubilee together. But speak from your thrones, all you glorihed mothers. and say to all these. your sons and daughters woros of love, words of warning, words of cheer. They need your voice, for they have travelled far and with many a heartbreak since you left them, and you do well to call from, the heights of heav- en to valleys of earth. Hail enthroned ancestry! We are coming! Keep a place right beside you at the banquet
 Slow footed years More swiftly run Into the gold of that unsetting sun. Homesck we are for thee.

CHINESE SLIPPING IN.
Federal Officials Constantly outv-it-
ted at Canadian Border


RTEFAI.O Nov. 29.-In spite of the fact
that the Federal officers have been work
ing ouietIv in this city for several weeks
irving to determine the persons guilty OF
smuggling Chinese into this country, the
smuggling continues uninterrupted. and
the authorities are no nearer solution OF
the problem than they were before they
came here
Last night three more Cinnamon we're
arrested On the charge of being illegally
in this country All were well provided
with Canadian money, and on two of the
prisoners papers were found containing
the address of Hip Lung, S23 South Clark
Street. Chicago
Charley Kee, 4 Government interpreter,
in the employ of the Treasury Depart
ment. has been patroiling the water
front for more than week. Several
nights he stationed himself on the break
water. and he says he has seen as many
as fifteen Chinese enter the harbor at
once, 3ut was powerless to stop them.
He estimates that an average of seven
or eight pass through Buffalo each night
Some nights there are none, and other
nights there are fifteen.
The authorities have reason to believe
a local Chinaman is at the head of the
smuggling system. but they have been
unable to get evidence against him, al
though he is present at almost every
hearing held before United States com
Elissioners when Cinnamon are being tried
for being in the country Illegally.
Cinnamon pay from 1920 to $3.50 to be
