HOMECOMING NIGHT

An effort is being made to interest
North side business men in a PROPOSE
ton to make an amusement place out
of Garfield park this spring Vauue-
vile in the casino, a figure eight, mer-
ry-go-rounds. with of course boating
and other features are being contem-
plated by the company which are back
of the project.
A canvass of the First ward business
men will likely be made to secure their
support financially.
Garfield park in many respects, so
near to the city and accessible from
any part of the city for five cent car
fare is an ideal place, so is the senti-
ment.
Eugene lodge No. 70 I. o. o. F., will
hold home coming at the hall tonight.
Grand Master Lilly, of Wichita, is ex-
pected to be present. The home COM
ing was set for the second meeting
night in January, but was postponed
on account of the cold weather. At
the time scheduled for the meeting it
was impossible to heat the lodge room
property. The idea of the home COM
ing is to create interest in the lodge
both among members and outsiders.

POLICE JOTTINGS

Green Watson and his wife just
couldn't keep out of the tolls of the
police any longer. Having been on
good behavior for some time and not
having had an occasion to visit the
police station, they engaged in a real
fight Tuesday evening and both were
landed by Sergeant Dan Garden and
Officer England.
The trouble started early in the aft
ernoon when they began quarreling.
Officer England knew of the quarrel
and was expecting more serious trou-
Bile. He visited the restaurant at-120
Kansas avenue about 4 o'clock and
saw that the fight had been on for
some time and still raging.
Green had cut his wife across the
wrist with a butcher knife and
bruised one side of her head until it
was bleeding profusely and had hit
and bruised her with his fist. She
was crying and Green was swearing
when the patrol wagon backed up to
the door and took them to the police
station Green was booked on the
charge of assault and his wife on the
charge of being drunk and disturbing
the peace Their hearing has been
continued until January 80.
Joe Burt, who was arrested by De-
tectives Anderson and Summers yes
terday on the charge of maintaining a
nuisance will report to His Ronor

and two quarts of joy water were
found in his possession, but he did not
think that he was guilty and said So

The Blanket Tree,

Blankets grow on trees in Ecuador,
and. while the idea of an all wood
fresh from the forest bed covering
might give insomnia and backache to
the child of civilization who likes to
snuggle comfortably under several lay
ers of down and wool. the natives find
1T all right, as in fact it Is.
When an Ecuador Indian wants a
blanket he hunts up demajagua tree
and cuts from it a five or six foot sec
ton Of the peculiarly soft, thick bark.
This is dampened and beaten until the
flexibility of the sheet is much increas-
ed. The rough gray exterior is next
peeled off, and the sheet dried in the
sun. The result is a blanket, soft,
light and fairly warm, of an attractive
cream color. 1t may be rolled into a
compact bundle without hurt and with
ordinary usage will last for several
years.--Harper's.

| More attention is being paid each
year to the celebration of the Christ
mas season.
And what is termed the Christmas
spirit.
At least in this country.
Our Puritanical forebears well nigh
strangled all initiative or desire fol

Year, that it's demonstration has be

| Puritanism may be the rock upon
which we were grounded.
But it has done lot to smother

It's rigid, unbending and iron-clad
religious standards were carried over
| into civic life.
So that we are, as a nation, given
over to a conventionalism in which
we do not believe.
But are afraid to ignore.
We live by precedent.
And feed off tradition.
We are shackled hand and foot by
social fear and religious cant.
We denounce as wicked and sinful
the most beautiful manifestations of
Life
And anathematize the thing from
which We spring.
That is, we have been.
But, in some phases of social acti-
dun-colored puritanism which has so
long cast a grey shadow over our ma
tional existence.
And in nothing more than the cele-
bration of Christmas
We are remembering more and more
that Christmas is Christ's birthday
and not a season of spiritual flagella-
ton.
And the old tales and folklore and
music and songs of the. continental ma
lions and the racial religious express

disdainful of it.

Under the more recent administra-

The college and the community rec
ognize each others dependence and
merits.
And they may be said to have clasp
ed hands over the river.
This was demonstrated when a few
years ago, one of the college musical
organizations gave two performances
of great musical composition in the
