We rehearsed the cantata in the par
lor Of the Stonevipher residence. using
gestures TO indicate that Santa Claus

now, when we get here to the opry
house we find that the only available

order to slip into the back side Of the
chimbley, which we had made for this
purpose, and, after rafting his sleigh
bells on the inside for an appropriate
spell. emerge from the open fireplace
in front, is on the south side of the
building, and the manager Of the hall
absolutely refuses to permit us to cut
hole In the north side. So l am
afraid that In the excitement Of the
acting some of us are liable to forget
ourselves and get our gestures mixed.
II also wish to state that, while we
are offering q prize Of 81 to the boy
or girl who correctly guesses the iden
tity OF the gentleman impersonating

Is less married by baSeleSS at

today Of paying more attention

The BETHLEHEM STAR
BY ALOYSiUS COLL,

The Bethlehem star, the guiding star
or old Judeas night
has 1t become a faded scar
Across the orient night,
The guess Of science and the guess
or critic. seer and sage?
Has 1t the DINNER grown or less
For change of cline and age?
Star Of the east-it is not set.
Though science scout the sky,
lis burning In the heaven yet
AS bright and sure and high
AS when the shepherds saw it flame
over old Bethlehem
and followed 1t until 1t came
And showed Christ to them.
1T is not set. the Bethlehem star,
But hovers full and clear
Nhere'er the babe and cradle are
And parents watching near.
NVhere'er the angel lips of love
Bring tidings of great Joy,
Nhere'er mother bends above
Her darling firstbor boy.

SOCIETY APPROVES
POPULAR SHAMPOO

Few Of Us realize how many prom
inenr society women wash their own
hair says Mae Martyr in the San
Francisco Gazette. This home sham
pooing is not a fad but is due to the
splendid results obtained by the use
OF popular, quick-drying shampoo
made by dissolving a teaspoonful OF
canthrox in a cup OF hot water.
This simple shampoo lathers freely
and cleanses perfectly, being equally
good for all shades of hair. 1t rinses
easily and leaves the scalp refreshed
and the hair lustrous, soft and very
fluffy. Dandruff and scalp irritation
disappear Immediately.
The fact that the alkali in soap
shampoos has been found to cause
stfeahS' thin, dull hair may De one of
the, reasons why society women have
taken so favorably to this splendid
shampoo in order not only to save but
beauty their hair" {
