THE MOTHER OF
THE TEDDY BEARS

ciation.l
~ nee upon a time-not so many
years ago either-there sat in
the doorway of a small cot
tage in Germany a young wo-
man with smiling eyes. child loving
heart and an invalid body. The chill
dren Of the little village all knew her
and sat in groups around her doorway
listening to stories. telling her Of their
childish adventures. and then. greatest
Joy of all. receiving in turn some de-
lightful toy that her def fingers had
been fashioning while they talked to-
gether
Day by day the children gathered
about this doorway. They told of the
latest flower that had blossomed on
the mountain side. of the wonderful
span Of horses that Hans. the best
carver Of the village. had cut from a
single block of wood. of the dear little
blossoms that baby Gretchen had
painted upon the set of wooden dishes
that were TO go to the Christmas mar
ket. And 10 them all the young wo.
man listened. smiling, while she piled
her needle or cut-snip. snip-with her
scissors.
And while they talked or while they
! listened the eyes Of the children rest
ed eagerly upon the busy fingers. for
they firmly believed that in those fin
gers lay a magic which none others
possessed. And why should they not
believe il. for when the sun began set
Ting down toward the mountain crests
and ii was time for them to run away
home 10 their suppers of bread and
milk the fingers were always stretched
out toward some new member of the
group. and upon them rested a won
derful animal-a kitten. or a rabbit, or
q duck. or tiny bear-and the like
ness was so wonderful that the chill
dren always brcathed forth deep
"Oh's" and "Ah's' and knew for a GER
tainty tina there was magic I'm the
makers fingers. No one else in all the
country could make such animals as
these-not even Hans. the marvellous
| carver.
| Always the busy worker sat in her
doorway. where she could see the rug
ged mountains. the green grass. the
nodding flowers. Perhaps it was the
strength. the grace and the beauty Of
these that wrought themselves into her
simple work
Then II came about-and no one was
more surprised than this child loving
young woman herself-that she found
herself making hu"dreds and hundreds
of toy animals. TO- 10Y buyers from
England and America Ead heard OF her
wonderful ducks and rabbits and hears
and they wanted them for the children
Of their countries too.
And who. do you ask. was this young
woman in PARKWAY Germany? can
Dnly tell you this: She is known now
far and wide as the mother Of the
Teddy bears"

Salt Lake City, July 26, 909.
Dear Sir and Brother: AS the time foI
securing the applications for the fourth
degree was short, l have had several
communications asking that they be
given more time; also several councils
have not made their full reports. And
in order to prepare for candidates, and
being great distance from the center
of supply, full information as to the
number of candidates and their appli-
cations should be in at least thirty days
before the day of initiation.
There will also be so much in the way
of church work and entertainment for
the dignitaries on the 18th of August,
and after taking all matters up with
the proper authorities, it has been de-
cided best for all concerned to postpone
giving this fourth degree work until
some later day, and, therefore, you will
please take notice that this has been
done. We have decided to have the eX-
emplification of this regree on the 18th
day of October, 1909, this being known
as Columbus Day." and in many of
the states is observed as a state holi-
day, and we should make it one also.
This will be a fitting exercise on that
day. There will be Pontifical mass cele-
brated, and in the afternoon exercises
in keeping with that day, and in the
evening the degree will be eXemplified.

our national officers will be here, also

You can be assured that the exercises
on that day will be well worthy of your
If you have not yet sent in your APP
plication, please do so at once, as we
want every one to help make this
grand success, and there is no telling
how soon you may again have the OPP
portunity of taking this degree. We
also want your support for making the
degree legal holiday, and numbers
will do so.
The time for sending in applications,
therefore, is hereby extended to Sept.
[, 1909. Do not wait until the last day,
however, but send it in now. As to full
program will advise you later.
Thanking you for your. kind assist

Cardinal Gibbons on Abstinence.

Chicago, Aug. cardinal Gibbons
head of the Roman Catholic church in
the United States, and recognized as
hearty supporter of the cause of tenn
perance, last evening declared that en-
forced abstinence in Chicago and 9TH
| er large cities would be impracticable
The revocation of all selling licenses
he declared, would result in surrepti-
tious sale of liquor
His eminence expressed these views
just before leaving Chicago, after hav-
ing been in the city for seven hours.
Il am heartily in sympathy with the
total abstinence movement" Cardinal
Gibbons said. 1T is a wide movement
and 1 hope it will spread to the most
remote corners of the nation. In the
rural parts of the country there is ev-
cry sign that the agitation must mean
success and widespread prohibition.
However much L am in favor of
total abstinence. though, 1 feel that in
the large cities, such as Chicago, it
would prove impracticable, and if laws
providing for the revocation of licenses
were enforced in these cities 1 fear the
result would be the surreptitious sale of
liquor.
The problem is one which will re-
quire much time and the best efforts of
our legislators and statesmen to solve
but, judging from the results already
obtained, [ and every one else cannot
but feel that the total abstinence move
ment is going on toward a successful
end
