Unique Indian Settlement.
From the Christian Heral'

Perhaps the most unique settlement
in the United States Is the Pueblo In
dian village, located in Arizona This
village comprises 1900 peaceabie IN
dams whose sole and almost only aim
in life is to secure a livelihood as cas-
lily as possible. This settlement Is To-
state, but the excessive heats Is not
uncomfortable to these people, whose
ancestors have lived in that desert Sec
ton for unnumbered generations.
Wastes of burning sand stretch for
miles and miles on every side OF this
village.
A peculiar thing about this people
is that they have two distinct villages.
The summer village Is located upon
the floor Of the valley, where the
Pueblos occupy themselves in agri-
culture. The produce they raise, over
what they need to eat during these
hot months, is stored away for winter
use. There are only a few places In
that section of the desert where water
Is obtainable, and in these places the
Pueblos pursue their primitive agri-
culture. Seasons come and seasons 60,
but as each goes by II sees these peo-
pie living as they did during the pre-
ceding one. Since the white maR first
knew OF this colony, which was back
in the Sixteenth century, the habits Of
this tribe have not changed. They eat
the same kind Of food, do the same
sort Of fancy work. and Live just as
did their ancestors. So Ear as Is
known to historians this Is the oldest
colony of any kind In this country.

A robin and a sparrow sat on the
limb Of tree, sheltered from the rain
which was softly falling, making ev-
erything green and sweet.
Il never saw such weather, SAID
the sparrow, everything will be wet
and the grounds muddy"
II think Ii is NICE" said the robin;
everything will be clean and the whole
country will be green"
This weather is too hot" said the
sparrow; Il do not like IT,"
"Oh! I like it," said the robin. the
corn will grow and the cherries, too.
Do you like the cold weather.? he
asked the sparrow.
NO." replied the sparrow; that is
the trouble with this world; 1t Is all
wrong; it is either too cold or 100
hot"
"wh'' do you not go south, as do,
when the cold days Gomez" asked the
robin.
1T is too far to travel" replied the
sparrow. Now look at that sun shin
ing" he said. "T do not see why the
rain did not keep on falling as long
as it had started"
we can find plenty of worms now, ;"
said the robin.
They will all be big Ones" said the
sparrow, and 1 like the little ones
best; besides, it is too muddy. I shall
stay here a while where it is COOL"
Yes, it is nice and cool after the
shower" said the robin. the breeze
will soon dry the trees"
And Wen all get cold. I suppose,
said the sparrow; "the idea of a breeze
like this blowing after a shower! Yes.
I am sure shall take a cold"
There is the maid throwing us
crumbs" said the robin: let US fly
down and, get them"
she is probably putting them there
so the cat will get us when we pick
them up" said the sparrow.
ooh! no." said the robin, she is a
kind hearted girl and often throws
them out for the birds"
So the sparrow flew down with the
robin.
They are nice crumbs" remarked
the robin as he hoped about.
They are too big" said the SPAR

in smaller pieces, and she scattered
them about so we would have to hunt

Here is some water" said the robin,
hopping to a basin that had been put
out for the hens.
Those hens have everything where
they can find it," said the sparrow

the robin.

GET OUT DooRsI

This is being written during the first
good snowstorm of the winter. The
ground is cold enough to hold the
snow. Snow has fallen for "a hours,
This morning there is little wind. the
temperature Is not much below freez-
ing and the snow is coming down in
steady fall. At noon the streets
were filled with people returning from
church. Few automobiles were out,
Most Of the people on the boulevards
were walking. Many people wearing
heavier shoes, warm head dress and
gloves, were prolonging their outings
by rapid walk through the park.
Their cheeks were red and they
walked with a snap.
This prompted the thought that
somebody ought to try to get the
people out of doors during SHOWS.
Somebody ought to try to persuade the
people at large to follow the example
Of the society people who were walk
ing land OF those who were riding)
through the parks and along the
boulevards this morning. And why?
In the first place, in order to get out
Of the house. Houses are hot and dry,
and therefore to be escaped from
whenever a fair chance is offered. A
walk in a snowstorm Is something
more than q fair chance. 1t Is good
for blackheads, pimples and bumps on
the face. That statement ought to
get many of the boys and some or the
girls out. The combination OF snow
striking the face and general muscular
eXertion, fills the skin with blood. The
cheeks become rosy red. A rafnstorm
is good for this, but a snowstorm Is
better.
1t Is good for biliousness. That
statement ought to get some OF the
older folks out. A heavy Sunday din
ner, an afternoon nap and day spent
indoors Is about the best way to bring
about a blue, bilious Monday. A walk
in a snowstorm is a fine antidote. 1t
Is used by our best families. 1t Is good
for lumbago. That statement ought to
get another group out. People who
do inside work need to exercise their
muscles.
Suppose we subtract the weight OF
the bones from the total weight. or
the net weight (bones subtracted) the
muscles make up about four-fifths.
Since the muscles make up so much
of the body they must be kept fit.
What chance have the muscles OF Of
fee workers, indoor workers, gener-
ally, unemployed women and workers
at most of the trades? They get lum-
bago, cricks in the back and stiff
joints. They need a chance to Timber
What is better than walking In the
snow? Better than walking on
smooth pavement on a warmer day.
The less secure footing brings more
muscles into play. The opposition is
greater and therefore exercise Is
given more muscles. The cold con-
tributes its portion Of helpfulness.

Kwannon is the Japanese World
Madonna goddess Of universal mercy.
She refused to accept freedom from re-
birth and world attachment, and re-
turned as a Nirmanakaya, to watch
over and help the destinies OF men.
Be patient with these dreamers.
These bitter soul blasphemers-
Their dream shall soon decay:
The schemes of all the schemers
Must vanish quite away.
COMPASSIONATE thee sleepers,
These gatherers and heapers,
OF phantoms, crumbling clay
They are the startled weepers
OF a near looming day.
With mperturbed pity
Gaze Ger the tossing city,
Distraught by feasts and strife;
Clamor and frenzy gnaw them.
Haste, hate--an passions score them
Deep, to their quick Of life.

Wide mother--biossom burning
With longing to enfold-
Thy face of wistful splendor,
Divine, alluring, tender,
Eome-even OF us behold.

When Adams came into the presi-

unfinished town on the Potomac had
served only to jolt and rather humor-

SAYS BULGARIA HAS NOT
DECIDED UPON NEXT MOVE

Berlin. (via London), Special: Gen.
eral Jecon, commander In chief Of the
Bulgarian forces, is quoted by a cor
respondent OF the Tageblatt as having
declared as late as December 26, dur
ing an interview at Bulgarian head
quarters that no decision had yet been
made as to whether action would be
pursued against the Anglo French ex-
petition upon Greek territory.
The general stated, says the cor
respondent, that the problem OF the
continued presence OF the entente ex-
petition at SalonilIi and of further ac-
ton against it by the Bulgarian and
Austro- German allies involved ques-
tions primarily OF a political nature in
which military action was dependent
upon negotiations which were incom-
pleted at that time. He asserted that
the danger from the presence of the
Anglo French forces at Salonild was
about all political since the entente
powers undoubtedly hoped through the
resultant complications to drag Greece
into the war on their side.
General Jecoff said that tie Bulgar-
ians had abandoned further pursuit of
the remnants of the Serbian army into
Albania, not only on account OF the
wretched communications, but also be-
cause Of political considerations. The
Albanians, however, were attending to
the completion Of the destruction Of the
Serbian army, he said.
Passing to the general consideration
of the war Jecon said he doubted
whether the world conflict would be
decided in the Balkans. Russian was
scarcely in a position to bring this
about. The entente allies could only
ondeavor to force such a decision by
offensives in the west and the east.
He said he saw no immediate POSSIBLE
tiles of peace, at least not before the
middle OF the spring. since the entente
allies still cherish utopias and set their
homes on q new offensive. The crisis
could come only when this plan is
broken down.
