II was too bad that Christmas
should have turned out so disastrous
" for them both. There was to be a
jolly party At the F%ergusons and In
the evening a Christmas dance. Per
haps Ralph Ferguson would send forth
another conveyance for them-but it
would go BY that other road. They
were marooned on the short cut.
A glimpse of Polly's woeful face
brought a reyulsion of feeling. Poor
little Polly was cold and tired and he

Without a word Derrick approached
a small clearing in the middle Of
which grew a young pine tree.
1t was the work of minutes to gath
er an armfnl Of wood and broken
branches and to clear a space of snow.
Presently a bright fire cracked cheer
lily and then Derrick brought cushions
and blankets from the stage and pre-
pared a place for Polly.
Come, Miss Standish," he said po-
litely. III you will draw near the fire

I'm not hungry said Polly, hold

AT least you will sit down and
wrap this blanket around you-so," in
sisted Derrick.
Thank you. :" said Polly without en-
thusiasm.
From the blanket Derrick produced
a large plate loaded with a generous
Christmas dinner. There were turkey
and cranberry sauce, stufing and
mashed potatoes and gravy, turnips
and celery, and a whole mince pie.
Derrick managed to convey half OF
the dinner more or less daintily to the
pie plate and this he placed before
Polly. Eat" he said sternly. You
will need the nourishment before we
reach F%erguson's."

little of the dinner and then fallen
asleep in her nest of blankets.
For a long time he watched the
changing lights on her sweet face as
the branches tossed in the wind; then,
softly he arose and approached the
little pine tree standing in the middle
of the clearing.
The cones were silvered with snow
and it looked like a Christmas tree
decorated for a festival.
Derrick opened his suit ease and
brought out sundry white packages.
These he tied to the tree with eolored
cord. Gay toys for the Ferguson chill

stood forth bravely in its fine attire.

Polly sat up with startled eyes seek

suddenly their light clouded.

Reluctantly she came, a rose flush
straining her pale cheeks. But yet her
red lips were obstinately set in a
straight line.
This is our Christmas tree, Polly.

THE CALL OF CHRISTMAS
Inspiration of Time Should Bring Us

It Is Christmas time. and at this
moment the call Is to lift up our
hearts and welcome the Light of the
World. to rest for a while In the glory
OF that light, not, indeed, forgetting
the lessons he would have us learn,
nor those great servants of his who
taught us to know and love and work,
and have passed away; but in thank
fulness and alteration seeking to learn
more and more how he would have
us serve him. The inspiration of this
blessed time should bring us a deeper
sense of personal responsibility, and
of our duty to our neighbor In regard
to questions touching the general wei
fare, and, beyond all, a deeper faith
that faith by which mountains can be
removed-and a truer love, a devotion

aim of getting and gaining solely for

First Idea of the Balloon.

The first practical idea of the bal
loon originated in the latter half of
the eighteenth century when the
Montgolfer brothers. noticing how
smoke rose upward into the air, con-
ceiyed the idea of filing a bag with
smoke. The development of this
idea resulted in the construction of
the first hot air balloon in June, 1913.
This consisted of a spherical cloth
bag about 30 feet in diameter and in
fated over a fire fed with bundles of
chopped straw. The next step was
the use of hydrogen gas. and the bal
loon was practically invented as used
today. The use of this gas was the
idea of NJ. Charles, a professor of nat
ural philosophy at Paris.

SOME QUESTION

There is some question in the
minds of local baseball enthusiasts
as to the possibility of the Miller
Hare case coming to court. 1t ap-
pears that the Capitols and Bismarck
played a game recently and that the
Capitol team took up a collection for
their own benefit. This, it is stated,
was not divided with the Bismarck
team. In the game the following
Sunday, a purse was taken up from
those of the spectators who were not
financially embarrassed and turned
over to Mr.. Hare, captain of the Bis
markers, who in turn handed it over
to the team manager. Later when the
Capitol team demanded half of the
receipts, the manager of the Bismarck
team said they had received their
money on the previous Sunday. Mr..
Miller of the Capitol team insisted
that there was a contract to the ef-
feet that each team was to receive
half of the amount, and brought suit
against Messrs. Hare and Edwards
for his share of the receipts. There
seems to be misunderstanding In re-
gard to the matter and it will be
threshed out before Justice Pierce
next week.

ECCLESIASTICAL ACTIVITY.

There are more changes occurring
among local ecclesiasts at the present
time than is usual in a city of the
size of ours. DR.. A. Lincoln Shute is
coming here from Lacrosse, Wis. to
occupy the pulpit of the Methodist
church. Rev. C. B. Epson of the Sea-
bury Divinity school, Faribault, Mimi,
will conduct services at the Episco-
pal church during the summer. Rev.
John Orr. a recent graduate of Prince
ton university, will substitute at the
Presbyterian church during the alb
sence of Rev. Harris. Bishop Web
rle will be installed soon as the first
bishop of Bismarck diocese of the
Roman Catholic church. Rev. J. w.
Taylor has moved his family to this
city from Mandan. Rev. Taylor is the
state Sunday school missionary of the
Methodist church. Rev. S. A. Danford,
district superintendent of the Metho-
dist church for this district will move
his family to Bismarck within the
ensuing two or three days. These six
new arrivals in conjunction with the
recent convictions in the blind pig
cases bespeaks roseate future for
the moral welfare of Bismarck.
