In keeping with the season, the CEN
SoR has made arrangements to print
delightful Christmas story entitled,

Mr.. Webster writing part one and
turning hia manuscript TO Mr. Kiser,
who added part two and sent it along
to Mr. Nesbit, the latter being left to
give the finishing touches according TO
his IDEAS. With these past-masters of
