In recent interviews with lead
ing senator's and representatives
of the various states at Washing
ton, ID. c. it was found that most
all of the northern men are en-
thusiastic advocates of woman suf
frage. Senator Borah and Con-
gressman French, who are most
always found on the right side
of the most important questions
of the day, are quoted as follows:
From Senator Borah.
Senator Borah Of Idaho says:
81 am absolutely in favor of WON
an suffrage throughout the world.
There is no other way in which
women can so well express their
opinions in regard to living condi-
tions and all matters which vital
ly affect the happiness of the
home and the comfort of the
family. 1t is essential that the
mothers have practical know
ledge of political conditions as
they are necessary to her work
of training the children of the
nation into future good citizen
ship. While ] do not claim that
woman suffrage will entirely pur.
ify politics, it will help to- do SO
and it's influence is entirely up
on the side of pure politics. "
Good Results, Says French.
Representative French of Idaho
says: "From an observation of
the political workings of equal
suffrage in Idaho during period
of nearly 16 years, | have no hes
itancy in saying that the results
of this experience, constitute a
forceful argument in favor of
the extension Of the principle of
equal suffrage throughout our
country. One of the priceless her
itages of the American people is
our womanhood, and the women
universally stand for that which
means for highest citizenship,
good laws, and faithful admins
tration of the same.
"The direct participation in
politics of any force that stands
for such ideals means for the bet
terment of political conditions. If
then, women will participate, un-
doubtedly the results will be for
good and not for bad. In Idaho

we were able to comprehend their sig
nifcance.
The manger In which the Christ
Child lay IS the objective point Of all
who visit Bethlehem at Christmas
time. To reach this you pass through
narrow and sometimes crowded streets,
where are to be seen numberless little
bazaars where are sold souvenirs
manufactured from the basaltic rock
of the Dead sea and from mother-of-
pearl. Many Of these articles are pur-
chased by pilgrims, who take them to
the priests to have them blessed.

is the Church of the Nativity, for In
the crypt of this quaint old structure
is a spot that is pointed out as the
authenticated birthplace Of our Lord.

over the peasants home. The In

is used equally by the Latin and Ar
menians on Christmas eve, while the
Greeks hold their services ten days
later.
The entrance into the church Is
through a small door in a high stone
wall. and all those entering have to
stoop to go in. 1t is said that this was
purposely built low so as to oblige Wis
itors on entering the sacred building
TO bow to the crucifx opposite the
door.
This spot In the days when Christ
was born was probably a mere cave

interlaced screen. The long process
sion slowly proceeds from chapel to
chapel, amid the continued singing or
the priests. This service continues for
the greater part of the night without
much variation.
On Christmas day the regular Ro-
man Catholic service will be held In
the same church. and the remainder OF
the day will be spent in merrymaking.

During the evening friends will visit
each other and exchange courtesies.
The spirit of peace and JOY will brood

During the visiting period an abun-

bacco will be consumed. and many
young men and maids who became
betrothed before the fast will be join

balls are favorite instruments In the
east, and their music is e louder

With such music the pilgrims are
welcomed. and the same music Is
heard continually as long as the cere-
monies last.
