matter directly up to the house. Rep
Underwood says that the
members must meet the issue, and
that the Democrats party will refuse
to assume the responsibility Of furth-
er delay. OF course what Underwood
says goes-everyone knows that in
Washington-and that is the reason
why many members from close dis
tricts are in a panic There are a
large number of representatives who
have been lodging for years, but un-
less something intervenes, they will
be obliged to come out in the open
upon this question. An effort will be
made to bring the proposed constitu-
tional amendment before the house at
this session, but it may be "staved

troll of the Progressive party in Della
ware, while the Republicans are the
Progressives. The Delaware situation
is pointed out as illustrating a con-
dition existing in many sections of the
country. Most of the Republican
senators and representatives who sup
ported Colonel Roosevelt two years
ago have declared themselves to be
members Of the Republican organiza-
ton, although they insist the position
of Colonel Roosevelt was right-and
they declare they will continue to sup
port him. The get-together senti-
ment is strong, but in contrast, there
are a few political officials who, like
the secretary of the Republican con-
gressional committee, helped to send
Taft to oblivion, and now consider it
their mission to excommunicate all
Bull Moose from affiliation with the
Republican party, even though they
had worked with the latter organiza-
ton for a lifetime. If the capital Of
lfers the key of the situation, there are
plenty of signs that solid front may
yet be presented, resulting in work.
ing arrangement between Republicans
and Progressives this fall. On the
other hand, the Democrats declare
that never before in the history of the
country has so great an amount of
constructive legislation been enacted
as since President Wilson went into
Office, and that therefore there is no
reason for change of control. If the
Democrats should lose control Of con-
gress it will be because they are too
cock-sure of their position.
Debate Movies Censorship.
Evidently the fact that some films
have been approved by the national
board of censorship" is not enough,
since the congress of the United
States has taken up the question, and
arguments have been made before the
house of representatives education
committee, urging legislation to Gre
ate federal board of censorship. 1t
is maintained that 100000 children
attend moving picture shows in the
United States every day, and if 1t is
fact that some children are injured
by the showing of immoral pictures
then, it is urged, it should be matter
of concern to the Washington govern
ment. In the hearings that have been
held in Washington, representatives
of the moving picture interests ap-
peared and argued that the present
method of censorship by the national
board in New York is sufficient.

Trouble in Congress Over Free Seclss.
Free seed distribution has been
having its ups and downs in congress
for number of years, and finally the
appropriation for sending out these
seeds was stricken from the agricul-
tural appropriation bill by the senate
few days ago, after a vigorous de-
bate. Senator Kenyon, who comes
from the rich agricultural state OF
Iowa, declared that he believed that
the farmers object to the sending ar
seeds TO them as a Cheap attempt tn
curry favor" The action Was de-
nounced as false economy by Senator
Warren. Member of the lower housa
expect to be able to save this CUSTOM
before the law is finally enacted.

Dave Williams Bought The
McNabb Farm.

At public sale last Saturday
Dave Williams paid five thousand
and five hundred dollars for one
hundred acres of the Geo. R. Nc
Nabb and a portion of the late
Lydia E. McNabb farms. The
land was sold by the executors of
the late John Holder and was a
parcel which he had willed should
be sold and the money divided
between his sisters. Mr.. Williams
owns the Mark Lillard place,
which is situated a short distance
Southwest Of the McNabb farm
and he also owns the Lydia Nc
Nabb farm, thus making the land
sold a desirable addition to his
farms. The bidding on the place
was spirited and it is claimed Mr..
Williams paid all the land was
worth.

YuLETIDE THOUGHTS

the same courtesy been extended
to yon?
Merry Christmas, George"
Greetings of the day, stran-
ger!"
How much differe these would
sound, and what a smile of pleas
ure it would bring to the stranger
within your gates.
But we are worldly, and think
most of the pleasure we are to de-
rive from the day.
And the tranger passes on,
with a little Tightening of the
heartstrings at hardness of the
world.
1t might be different.
But it isn't.
What will this Christmas day be
to us, anyway? Will it be just a
day Of rest-of turkey, and OF
cranberry sauce, and Of all the nu-
merous gifts which our relatives
and friends will shower upon us?
Will it be Just a WORLDLY
Christmas?
Or shall we set aside an hour or
so to the memory of the one whose
birth we celebrate, Of the one
who parted with his all without a
pang of regret.
Shall we listen to the soft toned
words of the minister as he tells
the marvellous story Of the Christ
of the man of all men-of the
one whose memory and whose
deeds live from the manger to the
end of time?
Shall we?
And shall we ask a friend to GO
with us. Shall we ask the stran-
ger within our midst?
Christ gave much for us.
1t is the least we could do for
Him. 80. XXX.

Dogs Save Lives of Wounded

More than twenty lives have
already been saved by a black
Collie dog belonging to an ambu-
lance corps on the East Prussian
battlefield. In peace times the
animal is an humble watch dog in
a railroad station at Halle.
The dark winter nights and the
snow make the work of finding
the wounded especially difficult,
but since the ambulance parties
began using dogs in their search,
few wounded men have been
overlooked. The dogs carry a
red cross on both sides of their
collar. AS soon as night comes,
generally the only time in which
the wounded can be searched for,
the leashes are slipped and the
dogs are sent across the battle
field. Instead of barking when
they find wounded soldier, they
bring back some articles of the
victims equipment, as a cap, he'll
met or glove. They are then put
on the leash and they lead the
ambulance men to the spot where
the wounded soldier lies. In this
manner hundreds have been
saved on the different battlefields.
At first some times the animals
lead the searchers to men already
dead, but they learn with surpris-
ing rapidity to confine their atten-
tions to the living.
