NEW
 YORK FINDS ||' j.. THIS I IS.
 REAL. CHRISTMAS
(By Gotham Knickerbocker.)

New York, Dec. 1S.-This is a Merry Christmas indeed for New York One year ago 100000 workers of the big city went out of jobs. There was suffering in many homes. Pub lie and private philanthropy was taxed. The l. w. w., found, a fertile field for demonstrations. The business man was chary of his wits and the aver age father of family shut his lips firmly when approached, on the sub ject of Yuletide allowances.
 What a change! Take a walk through the great department stores. Ycu will walk indeed, and walk very slowly, too. The crowds are like the throngs about the free side show at the circus. + Purchasers from the beautiful things piled high on the tables find it difficult to get a clerk to wait on them without long delay.
 Prices of everything are high, another sign of good times. No need of bargain sales when the difficulty is only in handling the business. In- stead of details of comparative prices some of the stores simply print full page and double truck" ornamental advertisements in the newspapers, an artistic poster-like advertisement with never dollar sign to mar the word of good cheer.
 Millions Go to Europe.
 The post offices are performing herculean tasks. The parcel post de- partments are grappling with vast problem. The money order clerks are dispatching tens of millions of dol lars in Christmas gifts t othe "old folk" back across the Atlantic in war saddened Europe.
 In the big hotels rooms are scarce and the dining halls are aglow with a spirit of affluence. Leadership m the spending is claimed by the num- erous army of "war babies" This names. was first given to kiting muniticn stocks and has now been conferred on their favorites, the tens. of thousands, who have grown rich through speculation in the war sec urities .,.

 Their name is legion and they are a different class from the usual stock market winners. The public is a bull. This time the public was right, again, and again right. 7.

 Gov. Moses Alexander has served notice on the prosecuting attorney and sheriffs of all counties that he will see the law is strictly enforced. If the country officers do not do their duty, the governor notified them, it may result in their removal.
 The finding of liquor in the pos- session of any person in the state except when retained under a doc- tors prescription or on certificate that it is to be used for sacramental or mechanical purposes, is prima facie evidence Of violation of the law.
