Real Santa CLAUS
Of Easy Location

Who is Santa Claus and where does he live? If you
love him. if ne is real to you, you know who he is, for he
lives in the depths of your heart. DO you write him
letters telling him what you want? DO you see his
reindeer s~cudding across the starry sky in your dreams!
Does his jolly round face peep in at your window TO see
il you are good and go to sleep early? Will you listen
for the patter of his feet on the roof Christmas eve, as
ne scrambles to your chimney? No? Then you are
not one of his little folk.
Does his sweet name call to your mind the dearest
little face in the world, with its perfect faith shining out
of its big, serious eyes, as it told you what to tell Santa?
And as you cheerfully work your way through the throng
Of shoppers, never minding the jostling and pushing, does
your heart swell almost to bursting with just the pure
delight of finding what Santa will bring? AS you see
thin, wistful faces pressed against toy-shop windows, do
you wish that you could buy for the whole world full OF
children, so that every little face, of rich or poor, might
be radiant with gladness on Christmas morning? DO
you burden yourself with bulky bundles and sneak
around to the back door to eyade curious little prying
eyes, and feel no jealousy because their jubilant thanks
will be all for santa Claus and none for yourself? You
do? Then you are a grown-up child, in whose heart
the jolly old elf still makes merry; the spirit of love and
good viii is still within you; you are Santa Claus.
If you give just because you know your friends viii
give and you must pay up; if you give what you have nc
right to afford and feel no pure joy in the giving; or a.
you do not give at all-then something is wrong; yom
childish image Of Santa is dim and faded or gone. Dom
give him up, Seek out some little friend, some little
acquaintance, or, better still, some little child of misfor-
tune, and make him glad. His touching belief will
bring back your own. Be to him a Santa Claus; YOU
gain will be greater than his. New life will throI
through your being. The bells will ring in sweetel
chime; the holly berries will CLEAN with a brighter hue
all the earth will be good and at peace, if you lool
through Santa Claus eyes. There will be heart in YOU
Merry Christmas"

The NorthwesG Passage

The dream Of daring navigators for more than three
centuries has been realized in the completion at last of
the northwest passage. Capt. Roand Amundsen has
achieved the distinction of being the first man in the
history Of the world 10 navigate the arctic region from
Davis strait 10 Boring strait and thus TO assert the mas
terry of man over long defiant nature. II long since be-
came certain that a northwest passage would be useless
for commercial purposes because It would he practically
unnaYigable. But explorations have continued for rea-
sons of sentiment and science.
It is reported that Capt Amundsen has positively
located the magnetic pole on King William island, and
his observations may enable scientific men TO clear up
some obscure electric and magnetic phenomena WHICH
long have puzzled them. These gains fan far short Of
what was once expected Of the northwest passage. Many
generations looked upon IT as the pathway 10 gold, and
uncounted human skeletons are the only monuments 10

by Europeans as a huge obstacle in a nearer way 10 the

Sweetness Of Crust
Misery With Riches
BY CYNTHIA GREY.

1t is the same old story. A happy young husband
and a devoted wife struggle through hardships to success
and then on toward wealth and misery. Is Mrs. Laura
Corey, wife of the millionaire, w, Ellis Corey, wishing
for the good old days of poverty? The father of the
millionaire says: IF my son thinks that Laura does not
love him, he is wrong, dead wrong. When a woman
slaves and starves through a $40 per month period with
a man, when she bears him children and rears or hurles
them, as Laura did for Ellis, it is safe to say that she
loves him And still we are told the same old story,
the story of a pretty face, a mans mad infatuaton; the
story of a mans millions and of a wife's broken heart.
THE last crusti" In the good old days, for the
trusting wife, the last crust was sweetened by the love
of the only man in the world. Empty is the success

Cursed is the gold that only feeds the evil desires that
break the heart of "A faithful wife! And sometimes we
Of poverty complain of our hard lot. Is there no glitter
of glass upon your table? Look for the shine in the
eyes of the husband, still your lover. Though his hands
are grimy with toll and though your own are hardened
with homely duties, if the shine of love is there, be glad
Think of the broken hearted woman of wealth and count
your mercies. Look and think, then break your crust
and though it be the last, be grateful for the love that

the dream of centuries, perhaps It will be found that this,
like other dreams, is brighter in the dreaming than in
the realization. It may be added that Amundsen ac-
complished the task in a forty-seven ton sloop, the Gjoa
with a crew of seven men; but II took him three years
to make the trip. and he Is now frozen up with the feet
of California whalers at Harschell island, on the north

The optic: We very heartily agree with the cordial
expressions that are being made in the territorial press
regarding the re-appointment of Judge j. r. McFie and
Judge Frank w Parker. Judge McFie has served for
three terms and Judge Parker for two, and both have
added lustre and distinction to the New Mexico bench.
Their tenure of Office has been marked by industry, in
teligence and a sincere effort to do justice to every
individual and interest.
