controversy did not end, and last winter
saw It reopsned. As result Of the sgita-
ton, the law was amended 30 that the
town can now open one road or construct
ono 20 that the sntomobilists can get into
the town. This became operative on July
/ Of this year. Already its provisions
have been taken advantage Of.
A petition has been filed with the board
OF selectmsn for the opening of such way
and for the construction Of an addition to
1t, and the board has it under considers
tion.
This road which is petitioned to be
opened 10 about two or three miles in
length and the proposed extension will be
about seven milss in length and will cost,
it il estimated, in the neighborhood OF
1000.
But this Il not the end. Many persons
are saying that II was mistake to change
the law in that way. It ought to have
been repealed entirely, with . restriction
90 that the town could close certain ways
to the machines. It would, 20 they claim,
have been much better for the place. One
Of the summer visitors who was strenu-
Gus opponent Of the machine 10 now said
to have stated publicly that he Wa In the
wrong; that no was actuassd By purely
selfish motives and that he now realizes
that the best interests Of al would b to
have the autos como hers.
And now for the causes Of this shift In
public opinion.

XIII Off Santa Claus

Every year about this time. certain
parodics OF virtue become uneasy.
What gnaws their vitals is that they
cannot comprehend how fifteen or
twenty million of healthy minded
parents can be in league with the fine
old fellow who squecZes his tubby
corporation down chimneys and flls
stockings and leaves behind him mar.
velS which none save those who live
in the fairy world OF childhood can
appreciate. The objection is on the
ground OF teaching deceit :!
Because a blind man cannot see the
golden sunshine, may he say that the
sun gives Off no light? Because an
unfortunate with a clammy clOd
where his heart should be cannot see
Claus does not exist?
About the truest. realcst, surest
proposition in this blessed country Is
Santa Claus. Millions OF parents,
from those in palace. to those In the
top floor. rear t"nemrnts are anxious.

hearts are i|uttering against tiny ribs,
