CHRISTMAS IN THE ARCTIC

A good many years ago the mission
aries in Labrador began to make use
of white turnips at Christmas time.
Maybe our brethren in their first at
tempts to grow something on this bleak
coast were gladly surprised at the
heartiness and the returns this vegeta-
Bile yielded, and in order to make the
most of it and with an eye to benefit
ing the Eskimos they reserved a guam.
tity of these nice large turnips for
Christmas. Then on Christmas eve.
during one of the most impressive serv-
ices of the year. these same turnips
were served with a small lighted can
die stuck in the middle. and each child
in the community. from the infant in
arms to the boy or girl of fourteen. re
ceived one of them as a Christmas gift.
White turnips are classed at home
among the inferior or common fruits
of the field. but this is by no means
the case in Labrador. Most of these
people Of the far north have V
seen an apple or an orange or a plum.
and as they cannot think of these fruits
by comparison the turnip occupies the
highest rung of the ladder in their es-
timation. You ought to see one Of
these Eskimo boys or girls bite into a
turnip, writes Christian Schmitt in the
Christian Herald. 1t is enough to make
ones mouth water. At Christmas
have seen more than nee not only
the turnip disappear. but the candle
also.

Legend of Christmas wreaths.

Legend OF Christmas Wreaths.
In sword and sash and scarlet coat
Upon a Christmas day
Through frosty woods and hoary fields
A soldier rode away.
She watched him through the falling snow,
A young and lovely maid.
In milky pearls and flowing robes
OF velvet green arrayed.
With rumors Of the distant wars.
The months went slowly by
Till once again the Christmas bells
Were pealing to the sky.
And, walking in the lonely wood.
A push the maiden found
With thorns as sharp as little swords
And scarlet berries crowned.
She leaned against an ancient oak
And wove a wreath to wear
OF scarlet berries, bright and gay.
And set it on her hair.
And. 10. the pearls Upon her breast
Were changed to berries, too,
And, rooted to the oak. a branch
Of mistletoe she grew!
When sweet and clear the Christmas bells
Ring out DER vale and hill
The maiden mistletoe is seen
In pearls and velvet still,
And with ner in the revels ruled
BY music, mirtb and folly.
IN sword and scarlet still ~arrayed.
Behold the soldier holly.

CLAYTON BILL WINS
ANTITRUST MEASURE CARRIES
EXEMPTION FOR LABOR AND
FARMERS SOCIETIES.
ONLY 2 DEMOCRATS OBJECT
Provision in Document Against Inter-
locking Directorates Expected to
Open New and Larger Opportunities
to Men Long Subordinates.

Washington, June S.-The admins
tration's antitrust legislation passed
the house of representatives by de-
cisive votes on Friday. The three
bills carrying plans for further reforms
of big business and an issuance OF
securities will be rushed to the
senate.
On the Clayton general trust bill
which carried the labor and farmers
organizations exemption clause and
limitations on the power of courts to
issue injunctions in labor disputes the
vote was 275 to 81. A roll call on the
stocks and bonds bill resulted 1926 tc
IL. The federal trade commission bill
passed without opposition.
The Clayton bill, besides the pro-
labor amendments, carries legislation
against the use of unfair methods by
large corporations and seeks to re-
store competition. 1t provides also
against interlocking directorates
among competing concerns and be-
tween corporations and their supply
companies 1t is believed this provi-
sion will bring to the front a number
of new men now held in subordinate
positions because of the enforced re-
tirement of directorates, besides open
ing to individuals opportunities in the
supplies contract field.
Opposition to this bill came largely
on the labor exemption and the In
junctive and contempt sections.
Only two Democrats went on record
as opposing this legislation. They
were White of Ohio and Geary of
Rhode Island. The latter announced
a pair with another member and with
drew his vote. All the Progressives
except Chandler of New York voted
for the bill.
Republicans voting against the bill
were: Austin, Bartholdt, Calder, Dan

WAR CLOUDS

HUERTA BRINGS ABOUT NEW
CRISIS WHICH MAY CAUSE
ACTUAL WARFARE.
Yankee Cruisers on Guard To Prevent
Mexican Gunboats seizing NUM-

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Washington.-War clouds again are
lowering over the United States. An
other crisis in the Mexican problem
faced the Wilson administration. 1t
threatens to end mediation proceed
ings and may result in actual warfare
between Huerta and the United
States.
Gen. Huerta has brought about the
new crisis by ordering his gunboats
to blockade the port of Tampico and
to seize cargo of ammunition en-
route there for the Mexican constitu-
tionalists aboard the steamer Antilla,
from New York, flying the Cuban flag.
Huerta has notified the powers of the
intent to blockade the port and that
he proposes to seize the cargo con-
signed to the belligerents against his
sovereignty as contraband of war.
The purpose of the United States to
suppress the attempt to blockade and
prevent interference with the Antilla
was indicated when Secretary Dan
iels issued an official statement, an
nouncing that, while no new orders
had been given RI. Adm. Badger,
there had been no change in the pol
icy of the government in reference to
it's desire that the port of Tampico
shall be open to all commerce. The
statement follows:
"The navy department has issued no
new orders to Adm. Badger since the
Mexican gunboats were reported to
be leaving Puerto Mexico. The de-
partment has at no time contemplated
furnishing convoy to the Antilla or
any other ship, nor have any orders
to that effect been issued.

Commission on National Aid Calls
Trade School Greatest Need

Washington, June 6.-Urging an an

states for promoting learning In the
trades and agriculture, the commission
on national aid to vocational educa-
tion, in a report to congress Thursday
declares vocational training is the ma

The commission recommended that
the advantages Of the system be re-
stricted to persons more than fourteen
years old and asserted that the Amari-
can people scarcely had begun the
work of providing for the practical
education of millions of our produc-
tive workers"
The report set forth that 100000
youths must be provided by educa-
tional institutions to cover the yearly
mortality and superannuation of work
ers; that vocational education was re-
Quired to develop intelligent farming,
to prevent waste of human labor, to
provide a substitute for the old sys.

wage earning power of the individual
and offset the increased cost of living.
Our national prosperity is at
stake" said the report. I'VE have be.
come a great industrial, as we'll as a
great agricultural. nation. Each year
shows smaller percentage of our peo-
pie on the farms and greater in the
city.
Our future will depend more and
more on the success of our industrial
life, as well as upon the volume and
quality of our agricultural products.
Development of our foreign trade is
coming to depend upon our ability to
compete with foreign nations in the
products of skilled labor"
