Municipal Christmas Tree al
Big Success in Spite of
Worst Possible Conditions
Overhead and Underfoot,
WINTRY SCENE MAKES
BEAUTIFUL SPECTACLE
Santa Claus CircuIateS Among
Kids and Calls Them by
Name; Great Musical Pro-
gram for Tonight,

The weather man played a rotten
trick On the kids of Albuquerque yes
terday. Colonel Sellers was highly IN
dlgnant over the matter and threaten
ed to take summary mot summary
action. The colonel, as official opti-
mist OF the city. had conferred with
the weather man. and thinking that
everything had been properly fixed,
had announced that Christmas eve
would be clear and bright--a perfect
Albuquerque winter day with Just
enough cold tc make YOU feel good.
At the last minute. however. the
weather man double crossed the col
onel and 1t is believed that there is \
dark political plot at the bottom of IT..
Instead of the article promised he
sent wet. soft, sloppy. slushy snow
q snow that wouldn't even be accom-
modating enough to stick on the
ground more than enough to make it
abominabIy uncomfortable under foot.
Colonel Sellers said last night that he
wouldn't stand for II, and intlmated
that ne intended TO get the weather
man off one side and have II out
with him.
However. II takes more than one
weather man, however mean a dispo-
sition he may have to cireumvent the
women of Albuquerque when they set
out to give the children of the city
big blowout. And what's more,
dozen weather men with all the con-
eentrated eussedness OF which only a
weather man is capable, couldn't stop
the kids of albuquerque from having
a good time when they get their
minds firmly set in that direction
a Glorious Success.
Consequently 1t is no wonder that
in spite of about the worst climatic
conditions imaginable, the municipal
Christmas tree was the glorious sue
cess that has been predicted for 1t All
the time. At least five hundred school
children were In the parade from the
high school to the lot where the tree
is situated. Every school in the city,
public, paroehial and government as
well as many private institutions was
represented. Youth and pollity and
vigor and the spirit of Christmas were
everywhere evident The boydom and
eirldom of Albuquerque were out for
a good time and they had it.
As 1t fell out, the snow proved 20
be not handicap but one of the best
and most beautiful features of the oc-
caslon. A scene which one can wit
ness only once or twice in a lifetime
was presented when the procession
reached its destination There was
no need for artificial decorations
there were real decorations in the way
of the softest and prettiest snow ever
seen weighing down the limbs Of the
giant tree and giving the aspect Of
some far-away northern cline of the
sort that the fairy-bo tell about
The steady downfall of the fleecy
flakes heightened the effect AMI
Santa Claus seemed to fit into the pic
ture as naturally as If it were his own
native home.

Berlin. Dec. G.--Trains of motor
trucks are the principal means of
transportation OF the supply depart
ment of the German forces operating
In the east. The territory In which
the campaign is AT present being car
ried ON has been occupied and evacu-
ated several times by the Germans
and Russians in turns with the re-
suits that the railroads are no longer
In existence.
Under these circumstances an
other means of transportation has to
be used by the Germans. Already the
value Of the motor truck has been
learned IN the campaign In Belgium.
When the forces under Field Marshal
Won Hindenburg advanced again from
their railroad bases In East and West
Prussia and Silesia. II was decided to
use the motor truck.
Large Number of Trains.
1t has been impossible to ascertain
how many of these trucks are now
used. 1t is known. however, that the
trains formed by them must be count
ed in hundreds. A supply officer stat
ed that possibly there were 400 such
trains.
The trucks have rather low and
broad platforms and are moved By
gasoline engines OF eighty to 100
horse-power. Each truck has traIl-
