worry this year which has not pressed
SO heavily heretofore and that IS the
question as to whether Uncle Sam
can get the packages delivered IN
time. The Parcel Post has made an
overwhelming increase In the business

will be harder than ever for the over

to force early shopping than any
thing else could. People will have to.
buy early hereafter in order to secure
delivery on time. The local post
Office force began Monday to labor
under the great burden of Christmas

MISTAKEN KINDNESS

VIM. Marion Reedy, Editor of the
St. Louis Mirror, writes of charity
at Christmas time with a caustic pen
and while he is about it tells num-
ber of truths which should be lis
tened to by each and everyone whose
heart is filled with the Christmas
spirit. All of us at this season of
the year want to do something to
make someone else happy, but our
methods Of going about it are apt to
'5e considerably tingcd with Needless
ness and selfishness. We are SO hur-
ried and our minds are so filled with
our own personal concerns that we
are loath to stop and consider
whether we give wisely and well.
This is especially true Of our Christ
mas charities. But listen to what
Roaay has to say on the subject:

READ YOUR INSURANCE POLL
CIES!

Never before in New Ulm have
the stores been so decorated for the
I Christmas holidays. Every grocery
store on Minnesota Street is agloW
with bright reds and greens woven
in canopies overhead with lights
shining out of the glitter tinsel and
diamond dust. And not only the gro
cery stores but others as well and
the disappearance from the market
of hundreds of Christmas Trees
shows that homes will be gay by the
L time his weeks paper reaches our
readers. We will be in time, however,
to utter again a warning which if
unheeded may cause suffering, sor-
row and loss.
Light, inflammable decorations
make fires easy to start and easy to
spread. A match, gas flame or an
electric defect may do it.
d d I WATCH Gas Jets! Decorations
may be carried against them by air
currents.
!. I. WATCH Smokers. Do not permit
them tolight cigars inside buildings.
/ Every year IN America many chill
dren are Burned to Death by fire from
Christmas candles.
DO. NOT decorate your Christmas
tree with paper, cotton, or any other
inflammable material. Use metallic
tinsel and other non -indammahie dec.
orations only, and SGT the tree Sc,
cursly SO that the children in reach
ing for things cannot tip it. over.
DO NOT use cotton to represent
snow. If you must have snow use
asbestos fibre.
DO NOT permit children to light
or relight the candles while parents
are not present, They frequently set
fire to their clothing instead. The
tree itself will burn when needles
have become dry.
DO NOT LEAVE MATCHES with
in reach of children at Holiday time.
Candles are meant to be lighted, and
if the children can get matches they
will experiment with them. They
initiate their elders.
A House of Merriment is better
than a House of Mourning"
Before attempting any hasty or
il-advised decoration which may
cause fire, examine your insurance
contracts and see if the policies con-
tain anything like this:-
"THIS ENTIRE POLICY UN-
LESS OTHERWISE PROVIDED BY
AGREEMENT INDORSED HEREON
OR ADDED HERETO, SHALL BE
VOID, &c, &c.,-"If the hazard be
increased by any means within the
control or knowledge Of the insured"
IF you burn, you want your in
demnity; do nothing therefore to inn
pair your contract.
DO NOT make the slightest change

Drama and Travel Week 4 Turner

. i i e i s-l q
''Freckles, /" drsmstization O
Gene Strattcn Porter's famous move
of the same name, is to be the attrac
tion at che Turner Theatre next Tues
day evening, December 3Oth. The
version to be given here is the work
of Neil Twomey and the cleverness O
his adoption will be realized especially y
by the readers OF the story, because o.
the mssterful manner ia which he has
evolved an interest-compelling ant
tensely dramatic play from tale
whose chief charms lie in it's tender
simplicity and unaffected natnralness
Being at all times in sympathy with
the author, Mr.. Twomey has trans
ferred the spirit of the wildwood,
visualized the delightful characters OF
the>story and woven the incidents into
logical ard entertaining play.
Naturally, the pathetic element has
been emphasized most strongly, but ia
relief there are frequent brilliant
flashes of wit and charming love
interest for the two now famous
characters ''Freckles' and s'The
Angel"
The play is illusively mounted,
particularly effective being the great
Limberlost scene painted by Crosble
Gill Of Wallack's Broadway Theatre,
New York, who has pictured the
famous swamp and its environs with
consummate skill.
Jules Valie, will be sean here as the
plucky little waif .'Freckles'' and
Carrie Bellmore rs the "Angel.'' An
exceptionally strong supporting com.
psny 10 promised.
Force of circumstances have con-
fined most of US to our own country,
and we have had to suppress the,
longing to travel To such Lyman
H. Howe's Travel Festival which
comes to the Turner Theatre on the
18th of next month is always looked
forward to with much pleasure be-
cause it offers opportunities to graft
fy the natural desire to see the world
better than any other exhibition ex-
tant. 1t is living realization of
scenes which at least could only be
imagined family Among the many
merits that distinguished Howe's ex-
hibition above all others is the por-
trayal only of scenes that are of un-
failing interest and their presenta-
tion with degree of realism that is
1nrivalled. This explains why Howe's
Travel Festival is the only substitute
that is worth while of actual and
foreign travel. Nothing could be
more fascinating and instructive. The
new itinerary" represents the con-
:entrated efforts and tireless re-
search of Howe's staff of photogra-
ohers; of travel of the most exDen-
'ive kind over land and sea; and of
lntold difficulties. 1t is presented
10 realistically that the illusion of !
actual travel is perfect. The new
program is said to visualize this
great, big, pulsating world of ours
more clearly than any Mr.. Howe has
presented hitherto

DEBATING TEAM CHOSEN

Monday afternoon after school the
final try-out for the State Debating
Team was made and the two teams
chosen to represent New Ulm High
consist of Beata Krook, Eliza
beth Dougher, John Woebke, Harry
Mecklenburg, Josephine Fredericks
and Ferdinand Ochs. The first named
three will constitute the State League
team and their first test of skill will
come the Both OF January when they
will cross swords with Redwood Falls
at that place and will support the ueg-
alive of the question, "Resolved, that
all judges should be subject t. popu-
lar recall, constitutionality granted. !"
The second team, consisting of the
last named three students will act as q
practlse squad for tho first team and
will also compete with the second
teams of Sleepy Eye, Springfield and
other points. They will debate the
same question but will take the atfir-
native and the date for their contest
has not yet been decided. There will
be constant battles between the two
local teams in order to polish up their
work in rebuftal and make them think
while on their feet. The test which
decided who should represent the
school in the State League Debate
was conducted by means of briefs pre-
pared by each of nine pupils on both
sides of the question. Two of the nine
who filed as candidates failed to have
their briefs ready and lost their op-
portunity to win fame on the platform.
Seven briefs we're handed in and then
q final debate was held, the strongest
speakers being chosen. The young
folks are all enthusiasm and will
make hard fight to win State laurels
