Christmas at the Churches

Each church gave a Christmas pro-
gram, the Methodists giving theirs on
Christmas Eve. The program was very
good and the Christmas tree was Of
course a great c Each child
was remembered by Santa Claus.
The Congregational church gave the
children's program and Christmas tree
Sunday morning and the services for
adults in the evening, consisting Of
special music and a short talk by the
pastor.
The Lutheran church gave their
program and Christmas tree Sunday
night in the Lamb Davis club house,
and reported a large crowd, as did the
other churches.
The different programs given re-
vealed the fact that a great deal Of
time and patience had been expended
to make the Christmas entertainments
a success.

One Uses knife on Companion, Who Was
not Seriously Injured

Whether as a result Of over-indulg-
ence in the cup that cheers or as the
retult of an old grudge, We have not
been able to Learn, George Brender and
Carl Jensen fell out over a game Of dice
Monday morning between 4 and )
o'clock, and the former inflicted on
Jensen several knife wounds, which
have not proved to be serious, as Jen-
sen tried to make his getaway Wednes-
day by taking a buggy and being driven
to Cashmere, where he intended to
take a train, but was overhauled by
Marshal Fitz, who brought him back to
Leavenworth in time TO be a witness
against B1ender at An examining trial
held Wednesday afternoon, when the
latter was placed under a $500 oond
for his appearance at the superior court.
Jensen was also placed under bond for
his appearance as a witness against his
assailant.
There is a little mystery about Jen-
sens attempted getaway. It appears
that a young man about town, named
Neighbors was furnished with money to
get Jensen out Of the way; but the off,
GERS got wind OF the scheme and inter
cepted him. Now it is talked about
town that Jensen did not get the $3.50,
but the third party who was employed
to turn the trick has disappeared with
the doodle.

The Beneficent Lemon

From time immemorial the lemon
has been regarded as one Of the most
valuable fruits given to a Because
Of the limited areas where it could be
grown and the difficulty Of transporting
it to places where it was needed it was
also one OF the rarest and most costly.
Now We have learned to grow it from
Florida along the southern tier OF states
to California, and no one is so poor
that he cannot buy this fruit which,
with its cousin, the lime, has become
the traditional remedy which keeps
British sailors well on long voyages and
which has given to British ships every
where the h~alf-iocular designation Of
"lime-juicers."
An inspired bard has recently sung
in prose the virtues Of the lemon, and
his lay Tits thusly:
The lemon is the standby Of exist
ence, the basis of the happy home, the
sovereign remedy, the thirst assuager,
the ingredient of a thousand and one
delirious connections. Who says hook
cup7 Who says lemon-squash? Who
says gin-sling7 Who says hot-toddy7
Who whispers b~arley-water7 He says
lemon also. Bereft of lemons, what
are these valuable and necessary things7
When it is hot, we want lemons more.
Lemons for influenza, lemons for bilious
attacks, lemons and more lemons, and
still more lemons, Imprudent boys
suck them, grown men make them the
foundation Of some perfect potable.
They will wipe away stains, and, squirt
ed carefully into the eyeball, they will
at once display the power that resides
within their resilient skin"

Whether the effect Of giving such
large sums Of money as were recently
given by Carnegie and Rockefeller, the
former ten million dollars to the cause
Of international peace and the latter
the same amount to the Chicago Uni
versity, serves any good purpose, is
extremely doubtful. 1t sounds great.
Indeed, makes a great sound-heard
all around the world, when Mr.. Rock
efeller or MI. Carnegie, with a wave Of
the hand, says, I give ten million dol
lars for this or that worthy cause. Ger
tain people applaud the gift and laud
the giver as a philanthropist and as a
worthy citizen. 1t is highly probable
hat time will deplore the possibility Of
the gift and condemn the giver as an
enemy Of society.

Miss McNeaI's Paralysis

Miss Catherine McNeal, the public
school teacher who was taken to her
home in Bellingham thaee weeks ago
suffering from a slight stroke of paraly-
sis, is still Improving; but slight hope
is entertained by her friends that she
will be able to resume her position in
the school,
In the first mention OF the matter it
was enormously stated that she was
stricken while in the dentists chair at
DR.. McKeown's Office. The facts are
she was suffering from the attack when
she arrived at the Office. She had
called to consult the doctor about her
teeth being the cause Of the attack.

Bonding the County for Road Building

The proposition to bond the county
for $500, 600 and spend the money in
giving .Chelan county a frst-class sys-
tenn of public highways was first agi-
tated by County Engineer Berry, who
submitted the outlines Of a plan which
would put this county to the front in
one of the most effective ways to rivet
the attention OF homeseekers and in
vestors.
A bulletin recently issued from the
Office Of Secretary Of State Howell
shows that Chelan county stands at the
head of every county in the state in
the percentage Of increase in popula-
ton since the last general census in
1900.
II some such plan as the one out
lined by Mr.. Berry can be carried out,
and the taxpayers assured the money
will be fairly, j~udiciously and honestly
expended, we believe the consent Of
voters could be secured at an election.
The only apprehension we have heard
expressed is that certain portions Of the
county will be favored over others. II
this can be guarded against in the call
for the election we do moi think any
apprehension need be felt over the
outcome Of the proposition.
We have called the attention Of the
world to our matches climate; the
unexampled fertility Of our soil, and
the many opportunities for making
money, and the opportunities that
abound here for a man who want to
make a home; but the crowning
achievement, the clinching argument
with the great mass Of people who come
to Washington, would be the well-es-
tablished claim that Chelan county had,
together with her other attractions, the
best system OF public roads in the
state.
The splendid roads Of Southern Cali
fornia have proved to be the best in
vestment a community ever made in
public improvement, as is reflected in
increased population as shown by the
census returns. Good roads will add
to the value of every acre Of land in

Ring Out the Old; Ring In the New

Adieu to 1910l You have been
good to US. You have helped to pros
per US individually and collectively. Il
is quite true you have helped those
most who made an effort to help them
selves. In which respect you have
helped once more to verify the old,
trite saw, which runs thus: The Lord
helps those who help themselves.
This holds true in all the relations oil
life. The improvident, the shiftless,
and the misfts are all too prone to shift
the responsibility for failure to the
shoulders Of some cause beyond their
control. Perhaps they deserve more to
be pitied than blamed; for, after all,
may they not belong to the human
vessels that were mared in the max
ing, as the old Persian sage limited in
the following lines:
After a momentary silence spake
Some vessel Of a more ungainly make:
They sheer at me for leaning all
awry
What! did the hand, then, Of the Pot
ter shaker"
Some OF GU readers may balk at the
impiousness implied in the query; but
who shall say he was not right?
It is by the thrifty, the industrious
and the proyident, however, that 1910
must be measured, and by that stand
ard there is no ground for complaint.
II the year upon which we are about to
enter-on whose threshold We are
now standing-shall be as good to
US as was 1910 there will be abundant
cause for rejoicing.
II it shall be better, and hope, which
springs eternal in the human breast,
whispers it will, let US resolve to be
worthy Of all it may bring US.
All hail, 1911!

Return of Mr.. and Mrs. Thompson

Mr.. and Mrs. w. w. Thompson passed
through here last Saturday on their way
home to Chiwaukum from Houghton,
Mich. Mr.. and Mrs. Thompson were
called to Houghton some four weeks
ago by the serious illness Of Mrs. James
Williams, Mrs. Thompson's mother,
who died December IL.
Just one week later Mrs. Thompson's
father died at the age Of II. The
shock Of loosing his wife proved too
much for Mr.. Williams at his advanced
age. Mr.. and Mrs. Williams were well
known to many people about Chiwau-
KUN, where they visited and spent con-
siderable time and made many friends.
Mr.. and Mrs. Thompson were accom-
panied by Mrs. w. P. Eddy of Seattle,
sister of Mrs. Thompson, who had also
gone to Houghton when the death Of
Mrs. Williams was announced.

o. S. Sampson, who was taken to
Seattle last Friday, and who has since
his arrival there been in the Prividence
hospital under the care OF a physician,
is very much better and is expected
home Saturday or Sunday.
Mr.. and Mrs. Sampson were to have
left for California and the East last
Monday, but owing to the illness Of
Mr.. Sampson the trip has been post
poned until Mr.. Sampson is sufficiently
strong TO travel.

Of hauling products TO market. Good
roads will make it possible for a rancher
to do with one team what now requires
two, as well as reduce the cost Of vehi-

roads indefinitely; but the average mar
understands this fully.
