The Society for the Prevention
Of Useless Giving" is once moro
arranging for the fray, and a
mighty good society it is, too. We
admire q "SPUG" immensely. We
admire anything and everything
that is PRACTICAL.
Be "SPUG," but don't allow
your "spuggins' tendencies to
run away with you. Remember
that the Yuletide is the most joy
Gus time of the year and that to
bring happiness to others is the
primal law of season which 10
as old as Christianity itself.
Practical gifts are splendid, but
don't be too practical. Very often
people covet some bauble which
may be the very acme of useless
ness, but which they really crave
and which they feel they cannot
or should not purchase for them
selves. A gift of this nature,
while apparently a foolish pur-
chase, brings untold joy and hap
piness to the recipient, and thus
fulfills the SPIRIT of Christmas.
Nothing is really useless that is
acceptable and appreciated.
Christmas gifts should not be
thoughtlessly chosen. Try to find
out what a person most desires
before buying a present for that
person. In short. analyze and
systematize your Christmas buy
ing. Be a "SPUG," but temper
your "SPUGGISHNESS" with

FREE WATER FOR CTATE FARM

While Dean Carlyle, of the State
University, was in Washington last
week, Senator Brady again took up
the question of securing free water for
the State Experimental farm located at
Caldwell with the Reclamation De-
partment. Accompanied by Dean Car
lyle, Senator Brady visited the depart
ment and with Mr.. Carlyle's assist
ance succeeded in having the depart
ment agree to furnishing free water
for the Experimental farm providing
the water users under the project will
agree to same. The state has attempt
ed to secure this free water for num-
Der of years. and all parties are much
gratified to know that we have at last
been successful. and the Experimental
Farm will have free water.
