Judge Leaves Faulty Will.

1t is strange how many talented
judges and lawyers have failed to draw
up their own wills correctly. The
English Judge Washington, who died
recently, leaving an estate of nearly
100000, overlooked the important
necessity Of having his will and a cod
icil to it properly attested. Perhaps
he intended that his professional col
leagues should benefit indirectly by
the consequent litigation.

heard of the mistake of the girl he sat
down and read Marryat's novels for a
week. Then he began again and re-
wrote the history.

CHORAL SOCIETY
TO GIVE PUBLIC
CONCERT JAN. z
Program Will Be the Best
Ever Given by the Popular
Organization of Boise
Singers.

Thursday evening, Jan. ., Is the date
set for the Boise Choral concert. The
program to be sung that evening is
one OF miscellaneous choruses, orches
ira numbers, vocal solos and the can
tata Gallia. composed by Charles
Francois oiounod.
The Choral society, but a year old,
has made rapid strides unsteady and
the work to be given in the coming
concert Is Tar superior to the work pre-
scented last year.
Not n little interest has been added
to the work Of this year in the organ
ization aud training Of an orchestra Of
forty pieces by Mr.. g o. Breach A
local musician of enviahle musical rep
utation and Skill.
The chorus is well supported In its
choral efforts by the accomplishments
put UP by this splendid orchestra. The
orchestra will also play two beautiful
numbers on the program. The chorus
of 129 voices is most enthusiastic ana
respondent to the baton of the drec-
tor The music sung this year is much
more difficult 10 master than the
music presented In the concert last
January.
1T ~ conceded by all local, as well as
by musical artists Of Chicago and of
other musical centers who have heard
the chorus, that Boise Choral society
sings most beautifully for an amateur
organization. organized only year
ago.
This musical organization Is worthy
Of the consideration and support Of the
citizens Of Boise It Il not money
making organization. In fact. the So
clety lost money on a recent artists
recital eSadsisD because Of the lack
az support by the people Of tlle city.
1 The Choral society sang free Of charge

{ year, making a strong number for that
iropfam IT Is an organization to
boost Boise musically and Is carried
on ror no other reason Whatsoever. For
| this reason that It has promoting in

The chorus win be assisted hy Miss

eaance and costliness. Great outlay
of money may make such gifts possi-
BILE yet the receiver may have none
of the real and abiding happiness
that comes when a trifie is given with
genuine regard. The worth of the
present is not indicated by the price
on it's tag. 1t is measured only by
the Christmas spirit it bears.
And the Christmas spirit is nothing
vague or intangible. 1t is embodied
in doing the things done by Him
whose birth is celebrated. His life
was one of service to the blind, lame
distressed and diseased whom he
touched by the wayside. His doctrine
taught the great virtue of giving even
cup of water.
If the Red Cross seals cost more,
they would have less of the Christmas
spirit about them. One on a letter
or package means that someone has
added his mite to alleviate the dis
tress caused by disease. Something
has been done to make a fellow man
happier. The stamps stand for efforts
to give permanent and enduring hap
piness to the unfortunate by driving
out a terrible plague. To bring hap
piness is what Christmas surely
means. That is what these small
stamps will bring to many of the dis
tressed.
One of the greatest blessings of all
the year is the opportunity to be a
Santa Claus and make others happy
by giving. But one cannot play that
part better than when he adds his
part to the Red Cross fund.
