MEMPHIS WOULD HAVE
 A REGIONAL BANK

Latest move on the part of Mem- phis to secure a regional bank, at the hands of the United States govern ment under the provisions of the new bill which is expected to regulate the currency conditions of the country, is through Pine Bluff influence.
 A letter has been received by the Chamber of Commerce from John NJ. Tucker, secretary of the Memphis Business Mems League, which con- tains a resolution favoring Memphis for the location of regional bank. It is held since Arkansas is not mak- ing an effort to secure such a bank, that the endorsement of the leading Arkansas cities will be helpful to the Tennessee city in securing the bank. The trustees of the Pine Bluff Cham Der of Commerce will discuss the mat ter at the next meeting.

now that you see things mentally. You just imagined that Santa and his rein deer were over the church. Why, it wants Il whole week before Christ mas. sonny, and Santa never comes till Christmas eve. Come along and don't imagine things like that any more." And the aged bell ringer swung his lantern and led the way along the snow covered path to his lowing. But in Sammy's heart was a feeling that he had not imagined see ing Santa. He felt the thing had been real. "He wes just peeping round to see where the good children live. and getting acquainted with the chimneys." said Sammy to himself. "But grandpa is too old to understand. He hasn't cared about Santa for many many years. But do. oh. 1 do! And how should love to slip away up into the church tonight and visit Santa's realm. Bnt that would be impossible. It is not intended for boys to get off the earth. so Santa comes to them."
 JUSt tHeH ohAlili! SIduuiIotuti opened the kitchen door for them. and as sammy entered the good old lady stopped and kissed him. saying:
 Il just had letter from your cous ins, Mabel and Ted, saying they were coming to spend Christmas with us and that they had written Santa Claus of the change of their address so that he could fetcn their gifts here--along with yours. Bless the dears.'
 And Sammy knew that Santa would do as his cousins asked him to, al- though grandpa laughed at the idea and said: "That is nonsense. good wife. Children should not believe such silly things" But Sammy knew a thing or two that grandpa did not know.

a trial run today" said he.
 So saying, Santa hurried to his sta bles. There the reindeer were show ing their impatience to be out in the open. and Santa gave orders to his stable elves to hitch up the steeds to the sleigh. As he meant to give the good animals little exercise.
 "They need race now and then.' he said. Otherwise they'd get stiff kneed and would feel clumsy when trying to gallop over shifting clouds and ragged treetops and uneven roofs. "
 After the ride of several hours Santa cried out to his reindeer:
 "Now to earth, my good fellows. And don't lag. We must be there just aa the dark is falling over the land. If we wait till the moon comes out we'll be seen, and that would never do."
 As the darkness settled over the land old Santa dropped from feecy cloud to the top of d tall church steeple There he got out of his sleigh, told his reindeer not to move from that steeple and made his descent to the roof of a convenient house. And past the win. dows of hundreds of homes he darted peeping into them and counting the new faces he saw for the first time.
 Lots of new little ones." he said to himself, smiling "God bless them all. Well, they keep me busy through out the year. And they are increasing so rapidly that I'll have to take sev- eral hundred assistants next year"
 Then Santa returned to the high church steeple, and as he was getting into his sleigh the aged bell ringer. ac- companied by his grandson of ten came out of the church with lantern In his hand. The little grandson look ed up and cried out to his grandfather .e''Oh, 1ookee.H grandpa. there in the sky! It's Santa Claus and his rein. deer See them flying! Oh, now they are gone-clean through that white cloud over the church. Oh, grandpa did you see them"

 Next morning Jimmy was awakened by being vigorously shaken.
 "Get up, get up! It's Christmas, and we want to see everything" piped Bill.
 They ran downstairs. and the little girls seized the boys hands and danc- ed around the old grandmother, who was making cake Then they all kiss ed her and kissed mother and father. Jimmy got an orange in his stocking, too, like the others, and nice new tie. But dinner was the best of all.
 They all crowded around the table. Jack had shot wild turkey, and they had celery and mashed potatoes, cran. berries, jam and lots of other things, with a big pumpkin pie to crown the whole. They had just begun to eat. Jimmy declaring he ''could eat whole house of turkey" when there was knock at the door. Jimmy looked up. and there stood papa. with Tim. the very oldest boy.
 "Papa. papa" cried Jimmy. running to him. Papa looked tired and white. He had been so frightened about Jim my. Tim had found out that morn ing from Jimmy who his father was and had hastened to Jimmy's house.
 And I'll never miss having Christ mas dinner With you again." said papa.
 "But. papa. you'll have Christmas dinner with us today" said Jimmy. Mrs. Russell says you're to stay"
 So papa stayed andshad dinner with Jimmy after all.

 Jimmy was very happy and could scarcely wait till dinner. But when dinner time came papa did not arrive. Nurse came in and told Jimmy that papa could not come home that night.
 Jimmy said nothing. He didn't cry, as nurse thought he would. He only looked very sober and.went to his room. Then he washed his face and put on his hat and coat He slipped down the stairs and out the front door. He was going to run away. /.
 When he got out in the lonely coun- try Jimmy began to be afraid. Night came on, and 1t was bitter cold. He felt tired and sleepy and crawled un- der fence and lay down to sleep.
