PRESBYTERIAN

| PRESBYTERIAN
The Christmas tree at the Presby-
terrain church was we'll attended and
all enjoyed the Interesting program
given by tho children Of the Sunday
school. The brightly lighted tree and
the well designed fire place aud win
dow effects made Santa Claus seem
more than real to the little tots.
All members of ike Sunday school re-
ceived presents.
CONGREGATIONS
The program arranged for by Miss
H. Fay Pierce, superintendent Of the
Congregational Sunday school, was
given to q crowded house OF Monday
evening. Special music was furnished
by the choir, accompanied by Messrs.
Lamond and Walker, violins, and
Will Walker with 1.-The fiddle bigger
than a man." Readings were given
by Mrs. George Egbert with fine effect
and by the Misses Emma Caha, Anna
Caha, Cora Sercombe and Minnie Wat
son. The little folks afforded much
amusement with their recitations and
class exercises, especially the primary
class In charge Of Mrs. w. r. Weisel.

METHODIST EPISCOPAL
The Xmas exercises at the NJ. E.
church were q pleasant affair. The
tree was fine large one. The house
was crowded with All appreciative
audience. The exercises, after the de-
votional services, consisted Of music
and Rotations. and were Of high Or
der, and very we'll rendered and much
appreciated by the audience, especial
~ the exercise in which Santa Claus
took an important part, although he
was of more dimiuutive size than he is
generally portrayed In. The treat given
to the children and all members Of the
Sunday school, consisted of nice sack
Of candy and nuts, also bag Of pop
| corn. Each class beginning with the
infant class marched up in order to re-
ceive their treat. when 1t came to the
young ladies' CHASE. they either felt
themselves too big to march up like
the smaller kids or had beeu too we'll
treated already to Xmas candy to want
anymore, and 50 refused to put in al
appearance. The absence of their
teacher Miss Greer might have had
something to do with it. Tho audi
ence clapped furiously but the young
ladies stubbornly refused to bulge, SO
they had simply to 60 without this
treat much as they love candy. nuts,
and popcorn. The young men were
more bold as also the older people and
responded at once to call and mached
to the front for their treat. The exer-
closed by all joining in singing Gan
Hail the Power of Jesus name" and

 Little Mistaken Lore.
 Many layman has been "stumped" in trying to master the intricacies O the vermiform appendix. But let everybody take heart.
 In an aristocratic New Jersey suburb recently the superintendent of public schoqls was visiting a grade while q lesson in physiology was being remon- siratcl. The teacher was explaining the construction of the spinal colhm She comparcd it to Il string of beads in order to show it's formation. and drew Il diagram for further illumination.
 When the lesson Was finished. the su- perintendent suggested that q most important feature of the spinal column had not been explained.
 Tt is this curious. pointed section at the base" he said. indicating inc end of the ycrtcbral column. which is called inc vermiform appendix. You have all heard of appendicitis : Very good. Well. that is the name given io q disease which is caused by m in ilammation of this apprndix. An op- cration for appendicitis means an am puiati"n "f this useless appendix"

THE SOUTH, THE NExT.WEsT

Of all the corners of this great and beautiful land of America, l confess perhaps the greatest fondness for that corner which is least known, the DOT tion of the United States south of the Ohio river. Did I call this a portion of the United States? Politically it is south, but of the north. It always seemed to me, in that spirit of boyhood love of fair play which I brought from the battle grounds of the little red school house, that after fellow was whipped and had hollered Enough" he ought to be allowed to get up. We whipped the south, took her surrender. and then brutally never allowed her to get up again! Politically, we have kept the south out of the United States just so far as we could. We have imposed conditions which the south could not accept and live. We have asked her to come in and sit at our table. but we have locked the front door and hidden the key, and left the south out in the cold. not q real part of the United States. And yet, here is one of the dearest, sweetest and nOblest parts Of all our country. Here is the very place where the old Americanism exists to- day-the only place. And if we do not know the south, not nearly so we'll as Davy Crockett did after his journey through the wilderness places, more is the shame and pity for us.
 As the southern states have been the last home of the genuine Amcricanism just as they were the original and natural home for gentle living-sO they have been the last to change in the ways of what we call modern progress. which latter is to some of us q some what hateful thing, and to none hlore hateful than to the sportsman and the outdoor man. who cannot find it in his soul to subscribe to the modern creed of success, so called. The south has been the last to change in the matters of game supply. She still has abun- dant facilities for sport left to her. We do not all of us know this, nOr>do all of us reflect that the greatest inroads on the game of the south. have been made by northern men.
 In spite of this latter fact, the truth remains that the south. land of case and plenty and comfort and good fcl- lowship, lies at our door. within.a days travel. Some of us know the south along the main lines of railway. Take the word of one admirer of it., get away from the railways, explore the south as Davy Crockett did. and you will never regret that experience. You will return with your eyes opened tC very many things. Perhaps you may forget your days of excellent upland or marsh shooting in your wonder that this beautiful and iovable.Spart oi America is not h part of the United States to-day. and you will he first to assert that this condition of unregrn eratcncs,, so called. is not the fault of the south, but of the north. Yet tho south is the coming portion of tn, United States pf America. It is the next west. Visit it. travel across it. talk with it's people. Do it now. YO, will never regret it so long as you live -E. Hough in January Field and Stream.

DON'T MiN RUM WITH FRUIT

James l.. Loring of Dallas Ce.itcr has written 10 the state board of health to call attention to the fact that warning to the Iowa people who go to the Isthmus of Panama not to mix the native drink with fruit would be q wise and humane thing for the board to promulgatc.
 MT Loring knows something of the equatorial regions. though his know ledge of the native liquors in that sec ton has been gained wholly by obser vation and not by participating in the riots which they are guaranteed to ell gender.
 ''I went into q port down there one time in a ship with twenty-six men in the crew." bc says to the board of health in his letter. "As soon as the anchor was down we were surround Cd with boats from which fruits of al. kinds were sold, and, of course. this sugar cane rum. Mosquitoes had noth ing to do with us. but within a week sixteen of our crew had gone ashore feet foremost and others were down sick with yellow fever. Several ships lost every soul ohl board.
 One day I asked the city physician what caused such a great loss of life. He sliced pineapple, put T slice in q saucer and poured from bottle lot nf that sugar cane distillation on the pineapple. In a short time the deli cate yellow fruit was as black as my hat. There's your yellow fever said ilic doctor. and that Is what kills your men,
 "Thc liquor and fruit do not agree. Those of us who never drank the stuff had no trouble.
 ''So ] say that just so as men eat fruit and drink the sugar cane diStil- laton. just So 'ong you may he sure that killing mosquitoes is not going io create sanitation. ."-Des Moines Register and Leader.

KILL YELLOW JACK.
American Public Health Con.
 ference at Havana, Cuba.
PRAISE FOR OUR FEVER EXPERTS
Dread ScourEs DanisI,ed From Pearl of the Antilles--Dr. Jessc Lazear Martyr to Scientific Zeal
 For Human Welfare.

HAVANA, Jan. 1.-The feature of the formal opening last night of the annual meeting of the American Pub lie Health association was the address of the president, Dr. Carlos Finlay. the yellow fever expert and chief of the Cuban health department. Dr. Finlay paid a tribute to the accomplishments and sacrifice of American experts who have brought about the beneficent re- suit of banishing yellow fever through the energetic application of what pre- yiously had been only theories. Dr. Finlay was in turn praised by Ameri- can sanitarians for his services to hu- manity in discovering the mode of vel low fever propagation.
 Dr. Finlay said Cuba was especially grateful to this association, some of whose members were Cuba's greatest benefactors. The banishment of yellow fever was largely due to two commis- sions from Washington, the first a quarter of century ago and the sec
  cisively established the true etiology of yellow fever Its members were themselves prostrated by the disease. and one. Dr. Jesse Lazear, died a mar tyr to scientific zeal, permitting him self to be infected and contaminated by mosquitoes. Dr. Finlay praised the work of Major Gorgas, chief health officer under General Wood. who, adopting the commissions findings, succeeded within seven months in rid ding Havana of her inveterate enemy.
 With reference to the two cases of yellow fever last October in Santiago province Dr. Finlay said it was pre- sumable that they were transmitted by mosquitoes from q quarantine ship. These were the only fever cases since 1901. i The only case of smallpox. Dr Finlay said, was one unvaccinatcd person. a detention hospital employee. credited to Mexico. .rs-G,r~t gs y.-. s,t' g Dr. Finlay urged a stronger fight against tuberculosis. the most impor' tant mortuary factor in large towns everywhere.
 Dr. Erastus Wilson of Havana read q paper on sanitary conditions in Ha- vana and the necessity of their i'm proyement. He said that while the i'm provements during and since the American intervention had reduced the death rate one-half Havana was now in the condition of having washed her face and left her underclothing dirty. Her radical requirements indis' putably is complete sewer system Dr. Wilson pointed out the difficulties which prevent the general government from authorizing the projected S2S. 00O,0O0 loan for Havana sewers unti .the, soldiers ,paH, loan. is ,pgaErtially Cleared of.
 ! Members of the association com mended Dr. Wilson's candor and re marked that several cities in the Unit ed States were in d condition similar to Havana's.
