Perkins's Contributions.

Referring to President Taft's allusions
TO the fact that George w. Perkins OF
New York had contributed 10 Colonel
Roosevelt's campaign fund. the colonel
said that Mr.. Perkins had given larger
amount To Mr.. Tafts campaign fund four
years ago and that the Taft campaign
manager had borrowed $4,000 from Mr..
Perkins which had meyer been repaid;
Colonel Roosevelt then took up the
charge that he had refused to prosecute
the international Harvester company,
making much the same statements In
this connection as In previous speeches,
Colonel Roosevelts reference to the
Ballinger-Pinchot case was his first ex
tended discussion OF his case in this
campaign. He asserted that Mr., Taft
supported Mr.. Ballinger against every
honest official in the interior department
and especially against Clifford Pinchot
and Louis Claws"
''Glavis," he continued. put into the
hands OF the president a detailed report
showing that the Cunningham claims
were fraudulent. as every one knew and
now admits that they were: Mr.. Taft
did not read the evidence in the case
and ne actually placed the decision OF
the case In the hands OF Ballinger and
signed the letter prepared by Attorney
Oscar Lawler in Ballinger's office, which
whitewashed Ballinger and directed the
expulsion of CLAWS from office.

Defends Dan Hanna.

Colonel Roosevelt then discussed the
charge of ROTATING on which MIR, Hanna
was Indicted and its subsequent dismissal
He said the facts OF the case showed
that there was not the slightest moral
delinquency on the part OF MIR. Hanna
because Of the action for which he was
indicted.
Colonel Roosevelt then said that II Mr.;
Taft would read the current number OF
a weekly magazine he would find name
after name or men among his southern
delegates and supporters who have been
indicted and have even served terms OF
imprisonment. He said that one TAFT
candidate Tor delegate from the District
OF Columbia. who is now contestinS the
seat OF the rIghtfully elected delegate
with Mr.. Taft's cordial approval. was not
only indicted but served jail sem
tence."
The newspapers. he continued. have an
nounced that in New Jersey next week
Mr.. Taft Is TO be tho guest of Taft
candidate for delegate who was indicted
in connection with the wire pool investi-
cation last year. He said: The boss OF
Atlantic City, the leader OF the Taft
forces In his county. was indicted and
was awaiting disposal of his appeal from
"A sentence OF a year In prison"
Colonel Roosevelt also mentioned Fat
rick Calhoun, who was indicted in San

Basis of Decision.

The advice from Washington sets
forth that the land commissioner in
rendering the adverse decision held
that while there was considerable con.
lllct in the testimony, the facts show
mo conspiracy were clearly established
and that it was apparent the entrymen
did not seek title for their own iudi-
vidual use and benefit but rather to
have tho title pass into other hands at
a profit,
Claud W. Freed, representing the de-
PENDANTS, declared last evening that
news Of the adverse decision came as
a SURPRISE, as the facts in
the case and evidence brought out
during the local hearings clearly yindi-
Gated the defendants, who, he asserted

Accuses Taft.

IN this letter Mr.. Taft stated with
the utmost clearness that his decision
was the result Of his own personal read
ing of the whole record. a statement
which was contrary TO the facts and
when the senate voted an inquiry OF the
subject and Mr., Taft realized the politi-
cal Importance OF having the public re-
main ignorant that the whtewash letter
had been drafted in Ballingers office
and that he himself had not read the
evidence on January 6. 1910, he answered
the popular demand for information as
expressed In the senate's resolution.
''He deliberately suppressed the Law
Ter memorandum upon which his decision
was based and sent to the senate in its
place brief signed by Attorney General
Wickersham dated two days prior to the
presidents decision OF the case in Sep
tember which was about three months
before it was actually prepared. 1t was
afterward discovered and proved before
the Investigating committee by Louis j,
Brandeis that this brief. put In evidence
by the president before the senate of the
United States as the basis OF the decision
rendered BY the executive as judge In
the Claws Ballinser case, was not In eX
istence at the time Mr. Taft rendered his

that the brief had been written after

GAMES THAT MAKE THANKSGIV
 ING MERRY.

Dear Social Corner Sisters: What a splendid lot of Christmas sugges- tions we have had. 1 am sure all of us must have gotten some new hint for our gifts that we will find useful.
 Soon Thanksgiving day will be here with it's family gatherings, and while this is day eagerly looked forward to by the children on account of the big dinner, it may be made to be a day long remembered for its fun and jollity.
 The pleasantest family gatherings I have ever known were those on Thanksgiving day when after dinner old and young joined in the merry making, and the day when grandpa and grandma laid aside their years and did stunts with the young people was a never to be forgotten Thanks giving.
 For this occasion games not too strenuous are required and there are many old time favorites; but I am going to tell you few later ones that are amusing, and perhaps may be new to some of us. Guessing games are very popular. Here is one that may be written down and passed to each guest, and a time limit set in which the answers are to be written down:
 THANKSGIVING MENU.
 Soup-Imitation reptile (mock tur- tle).
 F'ish-Collect on delivery (Cod). Roasts-The country of the crescent (Turkey).
 Adams wife, served with a sauce of what undid her (Apple sauce). Vegetables-Two kinds of toes ne'e1 found on bird or man Potatoes, To- matoes). What your heart does (Beet). Puddings-What we say to nuis- ance (Sa-go).
 Exactly perpendicular CPlumb). Pies-An affected gait (Mince). Re- lated to a well (Pump-kin). Fruit--A kind Of shot (Grape). CANE REST.
 Games which mystify are always enjoyed by old and young. Cane Rest is good. Two people are let into this the leader and his helper. When ths | leader has been blindfolded the helpei touches different players with cane and says:
 Cane resi-
 The leader repeats his words eact time. Finally the helper touches some ! one and says.
 Cane rest on whom?" and the lead.

MINIATURE PIN BALLS.

Dear Sisters of the Social CornGRs For an inexpensive gift, for friends you wish to remember with something especially dainty, they will be delight ed with these Miniatures:
 1 bought a number of brightly col ored post cards, with copies of HarTi- son Fishers girls heads on, in a 1o- cent store, cut out an oval shape per haps 1-2 inches or a little larger from top to bottom, makes a good size.
 At the lace counter at the large dry goods store, I got 1-S yard of the finest, sheerest silk muslin (thls quan- tity will do for a number of them). Cut out for each one two pieces of cardboard, the exact size of miniature. Cover one for the back with silk of any color you wish, yellow is a good shade, resembling a gold setting: on the other put a layer of the thinnest cotton sheet wadding, with a good sprinkling of the best sachet powder Then lay on the picture oval and cov- CT the face with the silk muslin, past ing the edges firmly on the back. over cast front and back together with fine stitches with silk thread to match. If yellow silk was used for back use gold headed pins stuck in close enough to touch each other; makes an exquis- ite little frame all around edge. At the top sew a small brass ring which has been buttonholed around | with yellow silk and at the top of l ring tie a bow of narrow yellow rib- | bon.
 A beautiful one I made for a friend l just married was a picture of Harri- son Fishers "The Bride" covered with the silk muslin. the back of white | silk, and the ring and bow of white with especially fine white pearl head ed pins around the edges for frame
 scented with white rose.

CHRISTMAS HELPS.

Editor of the Social Corner: From An Observers point of view, I think the suggestions on what to make and give for Christmas. as found in these columns, by their variety, will out rival anything found in any maga- zine.
 If the gifts are made with loving thought for the one to whom they go, and sent with the spirit that is more blessed to give than to receive, Christmas will indeed be time of Peace on earth, good will to men,"
 In order that I may help someone, send a few suggestions:
 A Bombing Towel is made from a damask towel, doubled through the center, ends together; then fold again from side to side and cut through one end of the last fold to the center; cut out a place for the neck and bind with wash ribbon. Embroider an in itial or monogram on one side. It , goes around the shoulders like cape WheE combing the hair.
 An lnvaIid's Kinona is made from a square of eiderdown, or heavy double faced outing flannel. Cut from one corner to the center diagonally; cut out a place at center for neck; hind the edges with ribbon or turn under edges and briar stitch down on right side. A point will be in the back and one over each arm, which tie together to form a sleeve with ribbon. Sew ribbon to the front to tie. A Case to Carry Rubbers in is made | from two circles of linen a trifle over three inches in diameter and 10 1-2 inches long and 12 or more inches wide; sew the 10 1-2 inch sides to the circles, one at each end; bind the two | open edges, embToider an initial on one side; fasten with a snap, or tie with ribbon.
 Cut sits in a sheet of dark bristol | board and hang near invalid's bed and insert the cards that come to them from friends.
 | Handkerchief Cases are made from pretty paper napkins. Put two nap- kins together with sheet wadding sprinkled with a little sachet pow der; bind around the edge with rib bon to match the color of flower or napkin, featherstitching 1t on; on this put another made the same way an6 fasten around two sides turn back point and fasten down with bow ot ribbon.
 Make a Scrapbook for the baby out black cambric, any size sheets yor wish. Notch the edges or buttonholt stitch with bright-color san-silk paste on bright pictures; little folks like animals and birds the best. | Travellers Cases made of linen ir which to carry toilet articles are use full Emergency cases in which place court plaster, etc., are acceptable.
 A Collar Bag for a man friend is nice, but space forbids my describing any more.

such notices as 'T point the way" or Beneath my rays you'll find your place." are placed in rustic lettering on the standard beneath the star.
 Calendar Pads also are made. The foundation is stiff cardboard cut in sizes to suit the individual want. Many are 8 by 5. and by g. Careful measurements must be made before placing the calendar on the board. or the results will not be satisfactory. Some calendar pads look better to be placed near the lower edge of card- board, while others of different size and shape are better if placed in the center, or at one side.
 Here, again, a wreath of holly done in watercolor and containing within "Yuletide Greeting" or the like, makes the calendar gift distinctively Christ masy. (Penny calendar pads are on sale at the stores.)
 Raffia Napkin Rings, made by braid ing the long strands of raffia (which comes either in natural color or in red and blue). and then carefully sew | ing the. braided strands round and round into napkin ring shapes. l Mats for the dining room table and standards for the coffee pots may be made from this same useful and eco- nomical material.
 The boy who has had manual train ing should have no trouble in making paper cutters, key boards, picture frames and many other acceptable gifts for the mother and sister.
 Buy Begonia, a stocky one, d. vide into three portions. place in three flower pots, and by Christmas you will have three very acceptable gifts to pass on. It has occurred to me to purchase several bulbs, hya- cinth, narcissi, Chinese lilies, etc, which l mean to start at once and give them to my flower loving friends on December 25.
 Doing Up Packages for Gifts-When | the children have once made their gifts, the problem of doing them UT confronts the pupils, and also the teacher, who is asked to help think of pretty, neat ways of wrapping.
 Tissue paper of white, light blue green and dark red will help out large ly. Gold and silver cord and narrow ribbon are very sure to help make dainty packages; but, failing the sup. ply Of these, one may use green ant red tWine or the strong and pretty faffia.
 Light blue tissue paper. two or thre, gummed silver stars and a bit of raf. fla will satisfy almost any one.
 Dark red paper. green raffia o green twine and a gummed holly lea. or two serve the same purpose as tn, one before mentioned.
 Failing sheets of tissue paper on may use the white paper in whicl druggists do up their packages. A goot deal of this paper may be purchase, for few cents.
 Paper napkins cost a little more but these, with the poinsettia or holl- pattern need no further decoration They are very satisfying as wrapper for small packages.
 One word more, and I am through Plain paper of pure white, tied wit red twine and a piece of holly tucke underneath the string is really nor beautiful than anything else; but on !, can use what one must, very satfs factorily, if only bit of forethough is exercised.
 Happy Christmas to all.

CANDY FOR THE KIDDIEs.

Editor of the Social Corner:-I ex- pected to find you busy making Christmas gifts, said Social Corner Sister to a friend.
 Well, l have decided not to make any presents this year." was the an swer. q used every bit of material for fancy work that found in the at- tic last year, and l don't feel that ] can spend any money this year. I am sorry when l think of my little nieces and nephews."
 You found your material in the attic last year, why not try the pantry this year." said the Social Corner Sis ter. You could spare four cups of molasses -four spoonsful of vinegar Then boil. When it hardens in colo water it Is done This is my plainest recipe for molasses candy.
 Then if you use my recipe fol chocolate fudge which is: Two cups granulated sugar ,one cup of milk, two squares chocolate and butter the size of an egg. When done it will just be- gin to form in cold water Remove from stove, add one spoonful vanilla and beat one minute. Cut in square. as it begins to harden.
 If you can spare the whites of al egg or two, beat stiff, add confection. ary sugar enough to form into ball. and little vanilla press half an Eng. Hsh walnut meat on each side, anC you have delicious and easily prepared cream walnuts.
 These are three of my plainest easiest, recipes which I often mak, for my own children, and they alwayi tease to scrape the dish.
 If you have saved your empt. candy boxes Gas almost every woman does), they will be just the thing t, pack the candy in this year.
 Now I must go home said the So cial Corner Sister.
 I will go and see how many cleal candy boxes l can find said her friend
