The reindeer did a heavy carrying
business for Santa Claus until the

reindeer is a solidly built, athletic ami
NAL who stays at home around the
North Pole and minds its business,
which is to keep the Laplanders alive:
The reindeer is the only member OF
the great deer family which has taken
any suggestions from man. 1t is as
reasonable as a COW and four times as
useful. The Laplander has no COW,
sheen. goat or horse, but the capable
reindeer does the work of all four. 1t
supplies long hair for clothes and
strong. rich milk from which a very
effective and high powered cheese can
be made 1t draws heavy loads and
travels more swiftly than an American
street car. Later in life it dies as use
fully and effectively as fat COW, and
the Laplander can give the american
packer points on using waste prOducIs-
He lives on dried reindeer meat,
dresses in reindeer skin, makes needles
out of reindeer bone and use the horns
for shovels If the reindeer were to
secede from the frozen NORTH, Lapland
would become a bowling wilderness
and would be no more desirable as
place of residence than a section OF
civilized Europe which has just been
fought over.

insane patients. He was charged with
insanity, not crime, and under that con-
diton he was not amenable to extra
dition For the last two centuries
cases of this kind have always been
decided in favor of the defendant"
Despite the talk of hard times, our
holiday business this month has shown
an increase Of about 10 percent over
the same period of time last year" said
William Walz. "As our stock is vir-
tually all under the classification Of
ton, I think. that FL Pasoans are not
worried greatly over the alleged finan-
cial depression throughout the country.
A good many tourists are passing
through here at this time of the year,
bound to California from the east, and
they make big purchases of Mexican
curios. That shows that the tourist
purse is not badly strained"
