on the very first day that she was
able to do so, It suddenly occurred
to her:
why not pretend that this is
Christmas day, and keep 1t, though
nobody but God and me will know?"
She opened the window, and as
she gave out the letters had cor
dial word for every one of the neigh
bors outside-children and hard
worked women and feeble old men.
They went away laughing and sur
prised, but strangely heartened.
When the Office was closed, she be-
thought herself OF gifts, and baked
some of her famous crullers and car

never had any crullers. and to the

The little gifts held out for a long
time as she carried them from house

seemed to her that never before had
there been so many sick, unhappy
folk in the town. Surely it was right
to make them glad that He had come
among us-eyen IL it We're not Christ

She was very tired when she had
finished her days work. She thanked
Him when she knelt down at night
that He had put 1t in her mind to
keep His day, in this secret fashion.
But she could not sleep for think
ing of other poor neighbors to whom
she might have given some little
comfort or pleasure.
"Why not make them happier that

to-day?" she thought, with a shock

So it came to pass that this little
post-mistress made q Christmas out

poor neighbors. When she had no
more gifts for them she threw her.

From a little Southern village
comes to us the story of woman
who once lost Christmas out of her
year. Just before the day, misery
and disgrace, and, at last, crime
came into her family. She carried
the load for while, and then fell
under it, sick unto death. The bless
ed day dawned and passed, but she
was lying unconscious and knew
nothing of It. When she came to
herself the people of the town had
forgotten that there ever had been
Christmas. But the day had always
counted for much to Jane 1t SEEM

God Himself on her weary climb up

because she was old, and had Sc

her. But when she took up her work

Santa Claus, the most widely
known and popular individual on
earth, was born go long ago that 1t

exact age. Neither is 1t known just
where he was born, nor who his par

everybody nowadays claims kin with
him. He is the only untitled person
whom nobody calls Mister" and be

though he gives away more at Chrisr-
mas than Mr.. Carnegie and Mr.. Rock
efeller ever thought OF giving, he IL
not classed with the millionaires.
Still he shows a preference for that
class and he puts more in their
stockings than he puts in the stock
lngs Of the poor. Perhaps he has
taste for fine hosiery. Some bache-
lors do. In any event, the fact re-
ma rs that the rich get more out of
him than the poor do. Maybe he is
not altogether to blame for that.
Anyway, he doesn't ride around in
an automobile. This may be because
he wants to save more to give away.
At the same time he doesn't ride in
the street cars. So there you are.

/. OF SCHOOL WORK
The Accomplishments Of
Pupils Taking Vocational
Training Are Shown.

The annual exhibit of the work ac-
compdished during the term by students
taking the vocational training in the
public schools was opened this after
noon in the High school building. The
exhibits is much larger and more com
plete than has been shown In former
years and arranged as 1T Is throughout
the new portion of the High school
building as well as the old, is being
shown off to much better advantage
than formerly.
Something of the accomplishments of
the students in the commercial depart
ment can be seen on the second floor
of the new wing, where exhibits of
bookkeeping work, penmansfrip. short
hand work and typewriting are shown
from the work OF the beginners to the
seniors who will soon complete the
course. In the shorthand and typewrit-
| ing exhibit is shown the records of the
students, the mistakes made and the
general percentage. The typewriting
work consists of letter writing, tabu-
latfng, legal work, billing, the writing
| of specifications and stenciling for
copy work. That the class has some
experts on the machines can be seen
by some OF the fancy work done, which
while not part of the work taught
shows distinctive merit, one feature
being a Remington typewriter made by
a student on one of the machines and
which has been requested by the com
pany.

The manual training exhibit Is along
a somewhat different line this veal

and work along that line in addition tc

chairs, are being exhibited. Two cedar
chests made by the boys are excellent
pieces of work worthy of special men.
