Washington, Jan. 2S.-After hold
ing a caucus of republican senators
in which plan to fight for the con-
firmation of President Taft's nomin-
ations was agreed upon, Senator
Smoot moved for an executive session
of the senate with the idea of hold
ing a session as long as a quorum
could be kept together
The republicans promised to re-
main in their seats. The democrats
were equally determined to permit no
combinations other than in the
army, navy and diplomatic corps.
The republicans declined to con-
slider a democratic proposal for a
joint committee to go over the NOM
nations and select some of them for
confirmation.

Romances are built about II. Wars
have been fought for It and religions
based upon 1t.
Love is the dream of the poet, the
puzzle OF the philosopher, the theme
OF the novelist and the song of the
minstrel
Love links all the human race. Its
note of victory is heard In the royal
court and in the peasants cottage.
The song OF love is on the lips of the
proudest queen and Of her humbiest
subject.
II Is the stimulus OF parental affec-
ton in the home and OF patriotism in
the nation. Brave men die for 1t and
noble women perish that they may
bear its sweet incense with them to
the grave.
How sweet and tender is this splen-
did attribute of mankind! In its smil-
ing presence, anger. bitterness and
strife melt away. How much more
has the world to hope for from love
than from envy, malice and hatred!
In this period of worldwide dis
trust. Of resentment against ccono-
mic conditions. of protest against eu-
thority, human and divine, and wide
spread defiance OF law, can we not
turn aside at this Christmas season
for moment and learn anew the les
son of love?
When we shall have learned that
lesson, we shall also know the better
and fuller meaning of obedience. con-
tentment and peace.

DERIVED FROM THE HEATHEN
Custom Of Decorating With Greens at
Christmas Time Once Was Under
Church's Ban.

Did you know that the custom OF
decking our houses, shops and
churches with greens at Christmas
time is derived from practice
which prevailed centuries before the
birth Of Christianity? The ancient
Romans, the Druids. the Scandinavia
ans. the Celts, and even the Jews.
used evergreens in their religious GER
emonies, and while. for time, such
decorations were under the ban OF
the church--the love for them was SO
universal that 1t was not long before
they we're again In use. Some OF the
ecclesiastical writer's OF that day
found a deep religious significance In
the practice.
The favorite decorations for the
church at Christmas time have long
been the holly. bay and laurel In
the home the Ivy and mistletoe
combine with the holly as the popu-
lar decoration.
II one desires to be true to the
ancient customs, all Christmas dec
orations must be put in their proper
place before the beginning OF Christ
mas eve. otherwise the sylvan sprites
who are abroad that evening. and who
may be enticed to the house by an
abundance of greens, will not enter to
bless the inmates with their protect
ing presence. Important as 1t is to
have these green things in readiness
by Christmas eve. however, 1t is quite
as necessary that they should be re-
moved before the end of January, for
1t has always been held to be most
evil presage to permit single green
spray to remain until the dawn Of
Candlemas day, or February 2.-Delin-

A FAMOUS SCHOLAR
Emerson Noted as a Transcen-
dentalist and Philosopher.
Came Naturally by His Learning, far
He Had an Ancestry Of Seven or
Eight Generations Of
Preachers.

Boston.-Ralph Waldo Emerson was
the most famous Of the transcendent-
alists and In his day Americas great
est philosopher, and he came naturally
by his learning, for he had an ances-
try OF seven or eight generations of
preachers. The father, scholarly man,
was settled over Boston parish when
Ralph was born, and although the
child was sent almost at once to
danes school his father deplored that,
at three. he could not read very we'll!
The little fellow was extremely gentle,
and we may imagine that he was In
culcated with high moral standards.
Ralph was but eight when his father
died. and he always remembered with
pride the stately funeral, at which the
Ancient and Honorable Artillery es-
corted the body of their late chaplain
to the grave; and the child had other
memories too, and these we're of pow
erty and self-denial-of sharing his
brothers overcoat. SO that in winter he
could go to school only on alternate
days; or how sometimes when the chill
dren were hungry the mother enter
tanned them with traditions of their
heroic ancestors.
When Ralph was eleven DR.. Ezra
Ripley, pastor over the church at Con-
cord, took hfs stepson's widow and
children TO live with him there in the
storied "Old Manse." It was in this
home that Ralph's grandfather, the
militant preacher, had lived, and 1t
was Ralph who wrote later the poem
read at the anniversary of the fight
This poem is really almost as famous

by the rude bridge that arched the
food,
Their flag to April's breeze unfurled,
Here once the embattled farmers stood,
And fired the shot heard round the
world"
Emerson walked very pleasantly
with the townspeople, interesting many
in his views about plain living and
high thinking" He was delighted with
his pupil Thoreau, who was for two
years an inmate In his home and who
was so ingenious that he made himself
most useful in both house and garden.
Then there was the dreamy, profound
DIR. Alcott, who lived over the way. and
Hawthorne, whom he often encoun-
tered in the woodsy path. And spe-
cial attraction was added in the clear
eyed girls and manly boys Of the town,
and he called the latter masters Of
the playground and the street"

railway material reaches Aleppo daily.
Soon the erection of an imposing sta

Aleppo Is not on the main line; Mosel-

wooden bridge has just been built over

ASANTA CLAUS GIFT

d osY HAGGERTY pulled the worn
IN coat more closely about her frail
form as she hurried out into the
cherries dawn of the raw December
day. The little lame sister--Maggie--
crippled but always merry, the one bit
Of sunshine in the older sisters life,
still lay asleep, blissfully unconscious
of the pitiful struggle necessary In or
der to procure the wherewithal to
make life possible. The little sister
had never walked, but the small room
where she lived was kept as sunny
bright as was possible, even when 1t
meant that the older sister went oft
times hungry to bed.
AS she climbed YEARLY to the offices,
grim and unbeautiful in the early
morning light, and prepared for the
rough work ahead, her mind reverted
again and again to the question asked
In such pleading voice. Sister
Rosy, don't you think Kris will bring
me gold locket-a heart-shaped one
like Miss Mile had on the day she
called?"
A gold locketl Rosy's care and sac
rifce, resulting in the magnificent pur-
chase of few candy toys, new dress
and gingerbread man, suddenly sank
into nothingness beside the startling
significance of this childish question.
Other years she had cleaned several
dollars from generous employers at
Christmas time. Perhaps she might
manage to get one that was not really,
truly gold all the way through. She
scrubbed away vigorously. The dust
few before her persistent onslaught.
And all through the hours only one
thought was in those blue eyes.
The hour came that saw the finish of
her labor--two crisp dollar bills and
some loose change represented her
gifts for the day-money was not as
plentiful this year, The Christmas
eve shoppers pushed and Jostled her
as she made her way along the crowd
ed thoroughfare, where bright stores
displayed their wares In tempting ar
ray. Carefully separating one OF the
new bills and putting II aside for the
rent, she entered store that promised
the trinket she was looking for The
tired saleslady answered the question
that was put TO her politely, undoubt-

pale face before her. Ne, she did not
think IL would be possible to get a
gold locket. nor even an imitation one,
for the amount mentioned. Why did
the lady not try to purchase a pretty
string OF beads? Muttering a low
thanks for the suggestion, the disap-
pointed woman turned once more to
the street, depressed and forlorn, and
decided to return home and make the
best of what she had.
Suddenly her foot kicked something
on the snowy pavement; II was lit
tie square, rubber-bound package.
Picking IT up she few down the street
toward the spot she called home. Hid
ing 1t In her dress, she prepared the
simple evening meal and after a few
games coaxed the little sister off to
sleep.
Nimbly and quickly the work-hard-
ened and unbeautiful fingers decorat-
ed a small chair beside the child's bed;
one by one the little dress, the candy
animals and the gingerbread man took
their places of honor to await a pair
OF blue eyes In the early dawn.
All this while the little square pack
age lay like bit of lead against the
eager woman's breast. At last with
trembling fingers she removed the rub
Der bands and tissue wrappings. A
loud exclamation of Joy made the
sleeping child turn on her pillow, but
she did not waken. On dainty bed
of blue cotton, swung on chain as
delicate as thread hung tiny gold
heart. A queer half-sick feeling sud
denly swept over the little woman, as
she realized that this did not belong
to her; white card fell from the
wrapping and futtered to the floor.
Picking II up she read:
Merry Christmas to Maggie"
She laughed with the Joy of posses
sion. IL was for Maggie, and taking
1t over to the little chair, she hung II
lovingly around the neck of the gin
gerbread man.
