Fire Works Proclamation.

Christmas will soon be with
us 1t is against the LAW to shoot
fire works of any kind inside of
City limits. Now | want the
children to have a good time.
Now let all take their fire works
and go home and have their fun
and not on any of the streets of
the city.
For as every one knows it is
very dangerous, not only to
children themselves, but people
with teams. Our friends and
neighbors coming in from the
country want some assurance
that they may come to town
without danger to themselves or
teams. 1t makes a more kindly
feeling between people to know
that all feel considerable toward
one another. shall ask the
City marshall to enforce the
laws. So please keep off the
streets to shoot your fire works.

Rotterdam, Dec, 10. - (via Lon

held here today of The Neither
lands Cabinet, attended by
Charge d'Afaires Langhorne

600 tons of wheat, valued at
81, 900, 900, to be used at once IN
Belgium at such points where
the danger of starvation is most
acute.
The commission has been faced
with a desperate situation II
is impossible for sufficient food
to come in from America to pre-
vent actual starvation in many
places in Belgium. The action
. of Holland.in loaning this wheat
has brought from the American
commission expressions of the
deepest gratitude, particularly
since it is recognized that Hol-
land herself is in great need OF
grain, bread having been placed
on a war basis throughout the
Kingdom
When the question was raise,
as to the time and manner of re
paving this loaned wheat tn,
Netherlands Government waiveC

wheat Immediately on Capt. La

A Fair Deal For Father,

In Chicago the other day in
deciding a divorce case the
Judge refused TO allow a fifteen
year-old daughter to claim a
third of Ter fathers income for
her education, chiefly musical.
The Judge was more than right.
Most Of the money put on the
average girls education is badly
spent. anyhow. There isnot one
woman out of 100 who when she
is % can show that her music,
her painting or her dancing, that
she had as a girl, has helped her
To become an efficient woman.
II a girl really has talent it will
show before she is fifteen, and
if she has none then the money
spent Tor indifferent teachers Is
wasted. In refusing to order
the father to contribute $1,000
monthly for his daughters edu-
cation. the court said; IL have
a young daughter myself, but
you know that even father is
entitled to consideration some
times some parents who have
more money than sense, indulge
their children and ruin them and
ut the same time make heart
aches for poor or less fortunate
ones. Cleaner.

Surely all Of US ought TO want TO be

Think Of our savior. who died upon the
cruel cross to redeem mankind from

duties that We owe to God. to our
selves and TO the world and do more
and better service in the future fo
Jesus.
