 Generosity of PubAtc.

Generosity of PubAtc.
 Several years ago it was the custom of our school and churches on Thanksgiving Day to make offerings to the Hale In- hrmary. consisting of groceries and cash This beautiful and humane custom was revived this year in spirit of humanity and hberality which surpassed the kind ness and generosity of former Thanksgiv-
 The Girls Industrial School, through it's principal, Miss Alice L. White, contrib uted large supply of provisions. The pound packages filled two barrels of no mean dimensions (sugar barrels.) A half ton of coal also accompanied the donation of this school. The warmth of thanks and appreciation for this gift coming at an opportune time. is indeed comparable to the warmth and comfort it will give grateful recipients.
 The State Normal School, through It's President, Prof. w. B. Paterson, made a handsome and munihcene donation, con- sisting of bounteous lot of staple gro- ceries. two bushels of sweet potatoes, half barrel of flour, one ton and a half of coal, a champion heavy weight turkey and a load of wood. with which to prepare the huge gobler for joyful destruction. Bright eyes beamed on that turkey. Glad hearts and good appetites surrounded that tur- key. It was joyous feast, made doubly so by reason of It's being a very cold day and the knowledge that the wood and coal supply had increased so magicaily, caused LHe 1ireS 10 DC brightly burning. The liberal contribution of S13. 50 accom- panying the offerings gives unmistakabie evidence that our charitab ble institution oc- cupies a warm place in the heart of this school.
 swayne and Cemetery Hill Schools through their principals. Professors Law renee and Breeding. contributed a large quantity of groceries, sweet potatoes, ap- ples and S1.55 (through Professor Law rence.)
 These schools manifest in the present what they have shown in the past, Q deep interest in the Infirmary.
 The Montgomery Institute and Colum- bus Street Baptist Church through Rev, A. J. Stokes, gave a large supply of gro- ceries apples and a contribution in cash to the amount of $3.16 This church and school have always been earnest and jealous in good work for the Infirmary The Congregational Church, a faithful friend and helper in years gone by, do- mated through Rev. J. P. Sims the sum of S2.16.
 Ten Times One Club, an organization of ladies engaged in missionary and char itable work and actuated to the per formance of good deeds more from a sense of duty than the attainment of glory, con- tributed the sum of S2.O0.

In Russian China Matters. Ther'
 May Be Trouble.

Correspondence Washington Post.
 It is published that the Russian and German Emperors have just concluded an arrangement" in regard to the far East which IS intended to be counter Boise to the AngIo-Japanese alliance. Russia has had for several years an alliance with France, which enables the former to call upon the latter for aid in the event of war with Japan and Great Britain over the Manchurlan-K Korean question: This Russian German treaty, pr arrangement" is not altogether a new thing, as 1t had its origin in China during the great Boxer insurrection of 1900. It will be remembered that the of fcIal and semi-officiaI press of Germany at that time was filled with sneers at the friendly tone of this country and Great Britain toward China. Russia, foresee- ing the future attitude of the United States, England and Japan on the open door policy, which was then openly ad- vocated by the former and favored by the latter two, was busy filling Manchu- ria with troops, ostensibly to protect her great railway against Boxer marauders.
 She had even then determined upon holding on to that territory of China, though publicly denying 1t, and a secret treaty or understanding was made, it is believed, with Germany, whereby, as com pensation for her support, the Kaiser was to have, if not free entry, preferen- tial tariff rates for German goods in Manchuria. There was a significant con- cert of action in China between these two sovereigns all through the Boxer up- rising, and now, since the late meeting of these imperial cousins, it is made pub lie that they are to stand together in the East against ali opposers of the will of the ''autocrat of all the Russias." And Uncle Sam, as we'll as the Japanese and John Bull, may take notice that Manchu- rian-Korean doors are to be open only to the friends in alliance
 If the machinations of these rulers are to prevail on Chinese soil, it is difficult to see how this country can keep out of the embroglio, since we have given China and Russia to understand that it is our intention to insist upon an open door in China for American goods
 The South is particularly interested in North China trade. as a large part of 1t consists of cotton and cotton goods. trade capable of very great enlarge ment and profit. The policy of Russia

Housework is Not Degrading.

Utica Observer.
 No work that is honest is degrading if honestly performed And even the lowliest task can be dignified by conscien- tious performance. What better task can a woman have than taking care of the home her husband provides for her? :? She should not be drudge-no just man would make his wife a slave to her house. work nor will any self-respecting woman permit herself to be. But homework is not drudgery to any save those who make 1t so. Any work, for that mat ter. can be drudgery if the worker so elects
