1t was then and there that God i'm
prisoned those spirits. angels, who kept
not their first estate, and are therefore
called fallen angels, devils, demons.
They We're not imprisoned IN some far
of world called hell, nor are they en-
gagged there in stocking fires for the tor
ture of poor humanity. Following the
leading of the Scriptures we ind that
when the food came they were not de-
stroyed because, while their tleshly
bodies which they assumed might in
deed perish, yet they would merely de
materialize, or assume their spirit con
ditions again.
The record is that God cast them
down, that He condemned them to an
overthrow-that they might not any
longer associate with the holy angels,
but must be reserved in tartdrus--our
earth's atmosphere. Here they were
imprisoned, not in special place, but
in the sense of having their liberties
restrained, lin chains of darkness"
They were no longer permitted to ma

SANTA CLAUS IN SALT LAKE

To a thrifty Mormon household came
the patron saint of Yule.
He was putting like an engine, he
was laden like a mule,
For he knew a row of stockings such
as nowhere else is seen
Would be yawning there before him
in the home of Elder Green.
So he showed his pack ahead of him
and started down the flue
While he muttered, This is some
thing ! hate like smoke to do"
Then he followed with reluctance
through the smooty, smudgy air,
Quickly landing where the hosiery
was hung in many pair.
There were papa's socks and twenty
pairs of lengthy, wifely hose;
There were socks for Eddie, Willie,
for Eliphalet and Nose;
There were stockings of Matilda's,
Esmeralda's and Susanne's;
There were Charley's hose and Mol
ley's, Cora Bellies and little Dan.
Amaryliis, George, Alphonso, Peter,
Joseph, Maude, Eugene,
Arthur, Lizzie, James Amelia, Mary,
Francis and Irene,
Briggie, Reed, Lucille, Clorinda, Are
thusa, John, Estelle,
Matte, Lucifer, Elfrida-from his
lips their titles fell.
But about the shelf there dangled
other hose whose owners names
He could not recall to save him as
he watched the dying flames
Seven pairs, all baby sizes, each in
age not quite a year.

In fantastic glamour lies;
A sheen of light the cleaning white
That mirrors the spangled skies;
A great cold star in the heavens afar
And trail the hills;
The earth instilled with an fulfilled
And the night with music thrilled.

While up in the organ loft
The sage owls Groom as the calm, tune

The message flies through the changing skies
BY changing time and tongue,
But the the tale that came

And the holly and bay twined
Where the hearth fire CLEANS in ancient dreams !

The carolers sing the tower tongues swing
