THE BEAUTIFUL SANTA MYTH.
If your daughter is just six or seven
years old and YOU are beginning to feel
your conscience pinch you at deceiving
her any longer with the beautiful myth
of Santa Claus, just silence that con-
science and wait until she finds out the
truth for herself
If your daughter has any illusions
left in this day os disillusion. let her
keep them. She will feel more resent
ment toward you for SCATTERING them
than she will for deceiving her. You
do not think it necessary to tell your
grOwnup girl all the things you have
discovered about love and matrimony
and thereby terminate her dreams that
those myths are all they seem to be,
do you?
After all, the sweetest part of a
girls life from babyhood up is the
dream part. Some day she will find out
that there is no Santa Claus, and then
she will find out that there are no fair
les, and then she will find out that ro-
nance doesn't last, and then that mat
rimony has its thorns, and then that
women grow old, but why open her
eyes to these things?
Let child believe in Santa Claus
just as long as he or she will and pluck
the delicious fruit from the mythical
Christmas tree to her hearts content.
1t is bad enough to discover the saw
dust in the doll of life when it begins
/ to fall out without being told about it,
when you thought it was really flesh
and blood. =
/ If any mothers conscience is troub-
( ling her about the Christmas fib tell
/ ing just now, let her sit down and try
to remember that awful day when she
first discovered that there was no
Santa Claus, and that conscience will
shut up tight and never open its mouth
again.

When one thinks of the many little

Christmas coming days, one no doubt
viii think of their many little dreams
and many viii try to make at least one
Of these dreams come true.
When one thinks OF the many who
are suffering throughout the state with
that great white plague, tuberculosis.
many no doubt will try to relieve these
suffering ones by buying few Of the
Red Cross Christmas stamps, every
cent of these sales 90 toward the re-
lief Of these suffering ones, and if
every one would only use these stamps
it would 60 far towards aleyiating
pain and distress.
Some of these stamps have been put
in the hands of the Woman's Club for
sale and those who want to help this
cause can buy them of Miss Sue Shelby
Mason and others.

No matter fl3w ln.seIy the world NAV
seem and the heart a-weary and out of
tune, every one should make the brave
resolve to put dull care from him on
Xmas day and try to be happy. One
may be in humble circumstances, yet
he or she should make it day of cheer
by bringing those whom they love hes,
together, if it be possible. 1t would
test very fOriorn occasion for many

ton from relative or friend to come
and dine and make merry with him.
The family reunion should be one of
great rejoicing.

us that justice. love. mercy, loyalty to
God and to principle are in the Divine
estimation the highest qualities, and
their violation the most serious crime
If we have not looked thus at matters,

This murmuriDg against the Lord
was concerning the mama, for which
at first the people had been very thank
full. They allowed their minds to be-
cdme so vexed that they wept like chill
dren at the thought of the fleshpots Of
Egypt, and murmured in desiring to re.
turn to the old conditions. Little did
they comprehend the situation. Had
they returned to bondage, even after
years freedom. their lot would have
seemed more wretched than before.
Moses Too Greatly Burdened.

severe upon Moses. He was the peo-

Moses remained head of the nation, the
seventy shared his responsibility.
By Divine direction Moses made out
! the list of these Elders. and requested
them to meet him at the Tabernacle.
All but two came. There God honor

OF A !.
PHOTOGRAPHER
Lost in Jungle and Took Refuge in
Aerial Tower Until Found
! by Rescuers

Many stories are told Of the fear
less feats of aviators; the daring
drivers of automobile racing cars are
accredited with many bold perform
ances; history is filled with the he
roic accomplishments of intrepid
soldiers on the field of battle; but
the true story of the .itinerant pho
tographer has never been told.
These are the fellows who fear1essly
search to the ends of the earth for
scenes that have never been pictured
before. They seek below the surface
of the earth or scale the dizzy
heights Of mountain peaks in order
that the reading public may get a
glimpse Of these unusual scenes:
One of the party Of photographers
that made the many pictures repro
duced in panama and the Canal in
Picture and Prose- wandered away
from the camp one day alone, look
ing for something startling. He
found it. Within an hour he found
that he was lost in the jungle and
was unable to pick up the trail For
hours he fought his way through the
tangled underground, scratched by
thorns and unable to make much
progress through the impenetrable
tropical thicket, until at last the day
began to wane. AS night came on,
along with hunger and thirst, he
sought place where he might lie
down and sleep, as he realized that
there was but little chance to find
food or drink. But during the day
he had encountered many snakes
and lizards beneath the tangled
vines, the thought of which was not
conductive to slumber. Struggling on
in the darkness, his cap was brushed
from his head by a dangling chain.
Grasping the big iron links, he
climbed up to large croopiece and
found that he had reached the edge
of a trail, where some of the old
canal machinery had been aban-
doned. Being unable to locate the
road at night, he climbed to the top
of the old dredger and awaited the.
morning light, for he was not able
to make a bed of his aerial tower.
AS soon as it was light he started
out, but had not gone far when he
met some others of his party who at
the break of day had started out to
look for him. After returning to-
camp and refreshing himself, his
perilous adventure was as nothing
when he found that he had some
unique negatives Of the Wilds of the,
Jungle.
Il The Pioneer is now d presenting
these pictures to it's readers in the
big book on Panama, as explained
elsewhere in this issue Hundreds Of
other rare pictures, to get which
daring photographers have per
formed heroic feats and tempted fate
by subjecting themselves to untold
dangers, are shown in this wonderful
volume. #5
