The Christmas entertainment given
annually under the supervision Of
Miss Mary ID Shellman, was held at
the County Home, on Wednesday af-
ternoon, and was a most enjoyable
affair both to the inmates and the
visitors who were present, among
whom were the County Commission
ers, County Treasurer and their
wives. The large dining room had
been tastefully decorated with
wreathes of evergreen and Christmas
bells by the steward and his wife,
Mr.. and Mrs. Humbert, who take "a
great interest in all things which give
pleasure to those Of our poor who are
fortunate enough to be under their
care
A prettily decorated Christmas tree
occupied the center of the table,
around which were piled the gifts
which had been provided, with mon
ey sent to Miss Sheflman from all
parts Of the county and from former
citizens living in distant States and
in Mexico. There is never any per-
sonal appeal for funds, the money
coming i'm response to one request
made through the county papers,
that any one wishing to share their
Christmas blessings with the county
poor, can do so by aiding in this
work. The gifts consisted of soft
slippers, wrappers, shoulder shawls
and white aprons for the women, and
socks, handkerchiefs, gloves and to-
bacco for the men, with plates of
fruit, cake and confectionery for all
The program, which was chiefly
musical, consisted of a number of
selections by the Westminster Or
chestra, Prof "a. Bailey Morelock,
leader, and vocal music by the Male
Quartette Of the N. z. Church.
The members of the orchestra were
Messrs. Bailey and George Morelock,
John Evans, DR.. Bonnotte, Guy Will
Jams, Thomas Anders, Theo. Mitten,
VIM. ID. Reese, Grove Zahn and Jas.
Myers. Prayer was offered by Mr..
Dale, of the Methodist Protestant
Home; a fine address was made, in
her usual happy style, by Mrs. :. X.
Herr, and Christmas recitation was
given by little Miss Evelyn Brown,
daughter OF County Commissioner
Brown. Santa Claus" imperson-
ated by Mr.. George Jackson, added
greatly to the entertainment and
made the distribution OF gifts a very
happy affair.
The entertainment closed with
prayer by Rev. ,. z. Pritchard, Of the
Westminster Seminary, and the
Mizpath benediction. Mr.. and Mrs
Humbert entertained at dinner, the
County Commissioners and their
wives, and by their hearty cooper
alton helped greatly in making the
affair a great success. With money
provided by a friend for the purpose,
the inmates had the pleasure of pre-
senting a Christmas gift to Mr.. and
Mrs. Humbert, as mark OF their ap-
probation of kindness shown them.
The steward also served refresh
ments to those taking part, at the
close OF the entertainment.

SETH low URGES
AMENDMENTS TO
ANTITRUST LAWS
Advocates Interstate Trade
Commission to Enforce
the Statute.

That Congress should allow the sher-
man law to stand and supplement 1t
with ether legislation was urged on the
Senate Interstate Commerce Committee
today by President Seth Low, of the
National Civic Federation. Mr.. Low
made 1t plain that what he said to tho
committee. represented his own views
and not the views of the Civic Fedora
ton. He said committee Of the Civic
Federation was now engaged in work
ing out a plan for dealing with the
present business and Industrial situa-
tion.
The supplementary legislation which
Mr. Low urged on the committee in
cluded the following.
A permissive national incorporation
A compulsory Federal license law for
it'll Of $2.0O0, 900.
An Interstate trade commission of sew
en- members to have charge Of the ad-
ministertng of the Sherman law, just
+ as the Interstate Commerce Commis-
sion now administers the interstate
commerce laws.
The proposed commission, Mr.. Low
said. should have the following powers:
al to the disintegration of combinations
under the Sherman law.
To agree on notifications of methods
OF combinations subject to the .approv-
al OF the courts.
To- pass on trade agreements, such
agreements to be unlawful unless filed
with the commission.
Through these various means, Mr..
Low would enforce the most complete
publicity as ITO the purposes and af-
fairs Of combinations and agreements.
Mr., Low sought to draw line be-
tween restraint Of trade and restraint
Of competition. He condemned the
holding company and thought such
companies should not be allowed to
enter Into interstate commerce.
In the course Of his appearance before
the committee, Mr.. Low sought to make
1t plain that he was not in favor Of
monopoly, and that he was in favor of
q continuance of competition where this
was possible, This was brought out In
response TO questions by Senator Cum
minis.
MI. Low declared that the tendency
to combination in this country had been
helped OH by the Federal system OF
Government and by the Sherman law
itself.
