SANTA CLAUS MET
MANY YOUNGSTERS
Arrives in Morris on Delayed
Trains and Holds Reception
at Towle's Store

merry Christmas Santa Claus.
Santa Claus made his triumphal
entry to Morris last Saturday and was
met at the depot by several hundred
youngsters and grown-ups eager for
an introduction and special Christ
mas remembrance. After a parade
down Atlantic avenue he went to the
Towle dry goods store where he held a
reception and distributed one thousand
bags of candy Many children in
Morris who were detained at their
homes by reason of sickness or other
causes were remembered and the
Towle clerks were sent to present
them with large sacks of candy. Not
for many years has there been so much
excitement among the children.
After the reception Santa Claus
departed for parts unknown but prom
ised to come back tonight to fill stock
ings with more substantial gifts to
the girls and boys and grown-ups who
have been good all year.
Mr. Towle was at the store when
Santa Claus came. After whispered
consultation Santa was escorted to
the candy counter where he began
distributing the candy as the little
folks passed by. There was no time
for questions. Some of the timid ones
who stopped to admire Santa
in his long, white whiskers and
red coat, were taken by the hand
and given rousing joygreeting and
the candy. After that there was no
use telling the little folks that Santa
Claus is a phantom lover of children.
"It was a great day for the little
ones," said Mr.. Towle. ''This store
is more than pleased with the turn
out. Quite number of children from
the country appeared and l hope that
if Santa Claus ever comes to this store
again he will be able to meet twice
as many as he did last Saturday,
The train on which Santa Claus ar
rived was late about an hour. Long
before the scheduled time children be-
gan filling the waiting rooms at the
depot. Outdoors snow was falling in
large flakes and sleighbells were jung
ling a merry tune. Everything looked
like the oldfashioned Christmas. Their
the train arrived and there was live

Laughter is one of the most health

digestion. A still more effectual help
is a dose of Chamberlain's Tablets.

"COPS AND COPETTES."

Aberdeen is surely going the limit, piling up in
debedness to have terrors to the officials who
soaking to the taxpayers of this city, Evidently
the majority of them do not pay taxes on much of any,
thing, so "they should worry.
The whole game has degenerated into hopeless
farce, a regular fools game. Why not have cop
copette appointed to tie little pink rios to puppies
tails This job should easily pay about 5000 90 year.
Then "gasolene catcher would be O. K This per-
sons duties would be to carry around Art pitcher
to catch the drops of gasoene while the autos are
standing the curb. About 100000 year would
be O. K. for this.
Then ought to have Bum Pacfer.' Our
saloons load up the poor devils with their rotten BOOZE
then turn them loose; after this the soak" becomes
noisy and nuisance Now the "Bum Pacifier" at
about $3.50 year could handle the proposition very
nicely There are other foolish and useless things
which might be suggested but these will suffice to give
our City Council a'pointer how to 60 ahead and pile
up expense for other people to pay. Of lot

BUSINESS IS IMPROVING.

There's better feeling in all lines of business
in this city, for proof of this your eagle eye
the pages of this paper; all people need is few
"short olts to bring them out of the dead cond
ton in which they have allowed themselves to get.
They will then see how the business is getting away
from them and going to other cities, going to other
centers which alive and which advertise and 60
after business That old wheeze about there being no
business, and that advertising does not pay etc.. is
fore long people will go after it strengthen there
will sure be something doing. re
Almost everybody says that business is improving,
and what everybody says must be true. You have got
to travel long way to find better city than Aber
deem; Then let's play the game like men; not like

Give this paper the O this week. look at every
page; then tell your friends what really good paper
the Herald is-t is the only eight page column

POSITIVELY REFUSED.

Advertising agencies with whom we do business
writing to large space for the advertising
of whiskey, to commence in December. This is to
supply the express package trade that they expect
will spring up after the saloons closed.
We have positively declined all such advertising,
stating that believe the business to be wicked and
blot on our civilization. The liquor traffic having
killed more bodies wrecked souls and the direct
cause of more shame sorrow, degradation and want
than all other causes combined. But we expect there
are newspapers in this section which will accept this
"bood money; thing sure the Herald will not
and we believe that our will be approved by a
vast majority of our people.
THE WAY TO KEEP DOWN TAXES is TO
STOP SPENDING MONEY.
There should not be one dollar more spent on the
West bridge than has already been spent. So long as
It is safe it is good enough for the present Lay the
street rails and quit spending money like drunken
sailors.
Those who do not like the way it is now can keep
off it, The only way to stop spending money is to STOP
BEGGARING ABERDEEN TO SAVE A
FEW CENTS.
Quite vigorous howl is going up because one of
our city officials bought lot of printed matter from
outside parties. This is not unusual in this city, in
TACT it is the almost general custom.
Thousands upon thousands of dollars worth of
goods of every kind are bought every year by our
people from outside that could be furnished by
our own people,
This proposition is very cold-blooded dog-eat-
dog and is best expressed in the statement "to
hades with Aberdeen" More printing, for instance
is done out of town than in it, and there is abso-
lutey real reason for it. only imaginery saving
of a small percentage There are faithful few who
stick hard for the welfare of our city, but they
hopeless minority
So if city official is following the universal and
general rule of the town. why raise the howl and single
hi mout for public disapproval? He is simply doing
what the majority does.
Later-The printing to which the above article
refers was done by the Aberdeen Printing Company
Perhaps the real inside for the kick was that
this particular job got away from the little private and
select circle that seems to be handling all the city print
ing It's too bad that even job should have got into
another shop.
