CHRISTMAS PREPARATIONS.

This is the month of good
cheer, of gay merrymakings, of
joyful anticipation, and loving
thoughts and plans for others
happiness. The Christmas
spirit OF glowing and giving" is
in the air, and hard indeed is the
heart that can resist this all
pervading influence.
Many are asking the question,
"How can | bring comfort and
cheer to those less fortunate
than MYSELF"
This year the churches, OF the
town hope to carry out with
some degree of success, plans
by which many homes will be
frightened, and few, if any
children of the several Sunday
school classes, left without a
bit of Joy at Christmas tide.
If we have the correct grasp
of life we cannot but feel that
its duties obligate our benevo
lence at this particular season
of the year in the direction of
cheering the hearts of those in
families where illness or misfor
tune has robbed them of the
means to make a merry Christ
mas. And how is this to be &C
complished? All that is need
ed to insure that no home in
Canyon City should be cherries
and forlorn this Christmas is a
little thought and care, perhaps
sacrifice, from each house hold
er or housewife. We should
bear in mind that "there is no
grace in a benefit that sticks to
the fingers, SO give heartily.

Abreast With The Times.

The First Natl. Bank put up a
handsomely engraved certificate
yesterday stating they are pro-

daylight robbery by policy Of In
Surance in the ocean Accident &

This is the largest Casualty Com
pany in the world and has over
100000 surplus deposited in the
United States.
The Bank is to be congratulated
upon this wise prccaution. Rob-
berries are becoming such a common
occurrence nowadays that the only
safe guard is in a good policy, and
the Bank that carries one need
have no fear. In case of an at
tack upon the above named Bank
they will be reimbursed for every
dollar of loss under their policy.
There is a feeling of security and
satisfaction when you keep your
money in a Bank, and in the selec-
ton of a Bank, that one that car

conservative man.
