Christmas Trees ana Gifts.

There are some people who are
chronic fault finders, or always wor-
rying about something. If they pass
one supposed crisis, another looms up
in their Imagination, and you might
Just as we'll let them alone, for they
are not happy unless they are miser-
able, and whining about something.
So with physical ailments some peo-
pie like to hear themselves talk about
this ache and that ache, this bad feel
ing and that one. They are never
we'll. to their view, but they manage
to eat their fodder and shuttle along
about as well as the ordinary person.
And every year the Christmas re-
former bobs up. He or she would do
away with Santa Claus, the Christ
mas tree and Christmas gifts. How
ever, no harm is done by these people,
for il they did not spare their time to
it they would take up something else
so they may as we'll be allowed to go
on without protest so long as they do
not interfere withsthe shopping.
The reformers say gifts are waste
and nuisance, and meaningless so far
as an expression of friendship is con-
cerned au entail obligations that the
giver and the receiver would gladly
avoid had they the courage to free
themselves from the tyranny of Gus
| tom.
Gft-giving is good deal of nui-
sance carried to extremes, but to sup
press it would rob the world of much
of its cheer and good fellowship. 1t
would not result in any economic or
material benefit, but rather would be
an injury to industry and trade.
The anti.tree eformers have some
valid grounds for objections on econ
omic reasons, in the depletion of our
forests, and in destroying valuable
timber. But until there is better care
of forests from fires, from ruthless
waste in other directions and there
comes systematic refoTestration, the
Christmas tree for the children will
persist.
We do believe, however, that the
shameful waste should be prohibited,
and some system obtain in the cut
ting and in the sale of Christmas trees
Every year more trees are cut. and
thrown away in the cities than are
used, principally because the prices
are prohibitive to the large majority
of the working people.

Speak Well of Your Town.

Speak well of the town in which
you reside or do business. If in all
respects it is not up to your high
ideals, pass over its defects and emph-
asize its good points, doing. at the
same time, all that you can to improve
its unattraotive features.
Nothing so: unfavorably impresses a
stranger in his estimate of town as
the croaking of it's citizens about it's
unfavorable conditions. II you can't
find some favorable feature TO discuss
don t say anything about the unfavor-
able ones. Remember that there is
only .one perfect place and it is neces.
sary to die before you are eligible for
admission there. If you intend to keep
alive you must stay on earth and abide
in some place that has only earthly
characteristics.
Ii you don't like the place in which
your lot is cast, move out or stop
croaking about it. There is no law
which compels you to remain. 1t
differs from the penitentiary in that
respect. But while you stay boom the
town. Insist that it is a good place
to live that its business men are alive
and up to the present minute; that it
is good place to trade; that its peo-
pie are courteous and cordial to
strangers; that the town is improving
in many respects and that in our town
in particular life is we'll worth the
living. II you can see only the bad
features Of our town: are sure that all
of its officials are grafters: that its
merchants are not so enterprising as
those OF some other city; in fact if
everything about the place has an un-
favorable appearance to you, the
chances are that your liver needs at
tention and the sooner it receives it
the sooner life will take on brighter
look.
The pessimist believes that every
thing is rotten; the optimist thinks
that conditions are simply ripe. Put
up your hammer. Try to whistle. II
you can't whistle, sing. yIf on can't
sing, just smile. Anybody can do that
and il everybody smiles the town will
look better to you.

When Alcibiades was told that his
countrymen had passed sentence of
death upon him for being at the head
OF conspiracy to overthrow the re-
ligious and political constitution OF
Athens he said, II will show them I
sttn live" He obtained from Sparta
assurance of personal safety and went
hither. He delighted and charmed the
Spartans, as he had the Athenians in
his earlier years. He adopted their
customs and dress and was the strict
est Spartan of them all. He wore his
hair short bathed in the icy waters
Of the Eurotes and ate their black
broth and barley bread. They believed
that he had been misrepresented. In
truth, as Plutarch said, "he changed
color more quickly than a chameleon" !"
In Sparta he was grave temperate
and fond of physical exercise; in Ionia
he was easy going, luxurious and mer-
ry; In Thrace he was drunken, in
Thessaly he was devoted to horseman-
ship, and in the court of the Persian
satraps he surpassed Tissaphernes
himself in magni6cence. AS Sparta
was to be the prize of the Athenian
victory, he showed the people their
danger, advising them to begin active
operations against that city No bet
ter advice could have been given them.
