it out, too, all through the week that
is, after all, set aside for you to make
others the happier for your being.
Instead of INDUCING in a cut glass

whom you may wish to cultivate So
cially, wouldn't it be a great deal more
credit to you If you took that same
money and made a hundred little for
lorn tots happy on Christmas morn
ing?
You needn't answer
Mrs Jones Brown will grandly
eclipse anything that you are likely
to send anyhow, and consider the
transaction q sort of social triumph.
Why not give her the surprise of her
life, and probably set her to thinking,
too, by sending a cordial Christmas
greeting, or a box OF Christmas
flowers?
1t win, at least, be in excellent
taste, and it should be the Christmas
thought, the kind impulse upon the
part of some sweet soul that has ac-
tually remembered you kindly, rather
than the gift itself that should be
priced.
Personally, would rather receive a
penny Christmas postal card with i'm
possiblt blue and pink things glaring
on it, from some honest heart that
knew really and truly loved me, than
to be struck dumb with the most elab-
crate layout in the world from some
one I knew didn't care Whit about
me, but considered it a plain Christ
mas duty to impress me.
/ believe, too. that the time will
come when well chosen individual
greetings will be all that will be used
outside, as I have said, of a certain
circle of intimacy.
Why?
Why do some people dread Christ
mas?
It is because Of this very vein of
commercialism, this social hoggish-
ness, this straining to keep up GER
tain appearances-these Christmas
vulgarisms that have been allowed to
creep in.

People honestly dread the average

Blythe divides the country into three
sections. In the first of the series he
deals with west of the Mississippi, ex-
Guiding Missouri, Arkansas, Louisiana,
Texas and Oklahoma, but including
Arizona and New Mexico. Regarding
this section as a whole, he says:
The Democratic situation is livelier
and more interesting than the Repub-
lican. There are some Democrats and
remnants of Democratic organizations
in all these states. So far as this sec
ton of the country is concerned, there
are but two leading candidates-Gov-
ernor Judson Harmon, of Ohio; and
Governor Woodrow Wilson, of New
Jersey. OF the two, Governor Wilson
is much the stronger.
IF Wilson should be nominated
against Taft, Wilson would carry most
of the states in this section, with con-
ditions as they are.
THE progressive Republicans, who
are against Taft, would vote for VII
son--not all of them, but most of
them. Wilson is very strong in the
states where the revolt against the Re-
publicans is the greatest
Taking the staes in order Mr..
Blythe says Governor Woodrow Will
son made a good impression when he
was in California and is very strong
there, In Oregon he found similar
stree 9Th and adds:
"The probabilities are, at this time,
that Wilson will get the delegates"
Regarding Washington, he says: "As
elsewhere on the coast, Wilson is the
strongest Democrat with the people,"
adding. "As it stands now Wilson will
get the delegates"
In Montana Democratic leaders can
be said to favor anybody they favor
Wilson," and in Colorado that Wilson
has a lot of supporters in the state"
Wilson is strong with the people
who vote the Democratic ticket in
North and South Dakota, the writer
says, and regarding Kansas he de-
clares: IF Wilson were nominated
to run against Taft he would carry
Kansas, in the view of the keenest
political observers of the state"

Siegel & Katz owed the Beck Bros. ot

made a levy on the goods at the West
Kinney street store on June 22, tho
day before the petition in bankruptcy
was filed.
Bilder G. Bilder contend the Beck
Bros. knew the petition In bankruptcy
would be filed when they executed the
sale, with the aid of a constable. The

store was broken into when the goods
were leved. The allegations are denied
