down. All being, ready at last, he
called to bring about the climax.
At the gate he was almost turned
to stone. He caught the strains Of a
fiddle from within the house. Not
jewsharp-not a mouth organ-not
an accordion, but regular fiddle

human souls down to perdition.
The deacon braced against the
shock and knocked on the door.
The widow opened it. She had the
fiddle in her hand as bold as brass.
"Why, good evening, deacon"
He glared at her in silence.

cises. What's the matter?"
"That-that fiddle~
"Yes, it's a fiddle, and / am going

The average man might be warned
a hundred times over, that in a scrap
with a woman he loves he is sure to
get the worst of it, and yet he will
persist in bluifing. The deacon halt
ed at the gate to give the widow q
chance to call him back, but the door
remained shut.
Another queer thing about the av.
erage man is that when he has made
fool Of himself and knows he has
he won't admit it. He just keeps
right on laying the blame to the

some consolation from it.

The habit of giving gewgaws
for Christmas presents is out of
date. We are sorry to say, how
ever, that the habit of giving
presents that are beyond the
means of the giver survives in
some places. There are thous-
ands of instances where an axe,
saw, hatchet, or some other nec-
essary tool would entrench more
gratitude in the hearts of the re-
ceivers than frivolous ornaments.
Select useful presents.

burg that Mrs. Ernest Hixson, of

ical condition since. We made an
effort to reach the family by tele-
phone yesterday, but the wretch

possible to get direct information.

Moreover, the demand for these

The case does not parallel public
building program for the country at
large, which commonly involves ex-
cessive expenditures for structures
in towns that do not need any such
amounts spent on them. There will
be no ground to complain Of expen-

q score as this. The buildings have
been authorized and ordered by Con-

BUILD THEM NOWI"

A few days ago The Times pre-.
sented striking list of contemplated
Government improvements and erec-
tions, which have been decided upon
for Washington, and for which
money has been in whole or in part
provided by Congress. Many mil
lions of investment in Federal struc.
lures have been authorized; money
has been put into the purchase of
sites which are not serving their
intended purpose so long as build
ings are not erected.
The present is a time to get build
ings erected at the lowest possible
costs. Private business men realize
that. when one is able to do it, there
is profit in building in such periods.
The Government is not only able to
do this, but it is under a kind of OBJ
legation to use its financial capacity
to provide employment and business.
To proceed with construction of
these buildings means work for
many hundreds of men in steel mills,
