A CHRISTMAS CAROL.

In the stiffness Of the midnight,
In the silence of the Star.
In the slumber of the white lambs,
On the hillsides, near and far,
Came the Christ Child to his mother,
To the humble oxen's stall;
He, the Babe Of Fal ddise, sweet;
Lord of Christmas, King of all
Hush, let not a word be spoken
OF his sacrifice for men,
STOPPING from his world of glory,
To be woman-born, pen
OF sweet straw to be his cradle,
He Is ours, just ours, today,
Mark that mortal s1Aile, that shining
OF the halo in the hay!
While the palm trees rustic softly,
While his lullaby, the breeze,
Croons amid the angels anthem
Which the star-lit heaven cleaves,
We will claim him ours our treasure.
Christmas Babe, and Babe divine
Hail, thrice hail, o mystic stranger,
Nesting in thy straw-filled shrine!
Helen Chase, in Brooklyn Eagle

A CHRISTMAS PRAYER
BY REV RALPH CURTIS JONES.

kSNHgAX full to thee on this
~ AES&sA Christmas day for all
MIMl&M the good things in life,
9@ thankful for the lowly
2 birth in Bethlehem, fLf
all Of which we COM
memorate this day. May all Christen.
dom unite in mighty force to stop
this ungodly European conflict, and
say as the heavenly host sang "Peace
on earth, good will toward men," for
we are sad indeed, at the thought Of
thy children who today are killing
each other in the terrible war that is
being waged. In pity forgive them.
Oh, Heavenly Father, bring them and
their rulers to full realization of
the sinfulness of war-that those who
have caused it may cry to thee for
peace. May they get glimpse OF the
cross in it's full meaning, and profit
by the sacrifice made by thy Son for
the worlds redemption.
Our Father, may the world become
Christianized from all other religions
and PHILOSOPHERS, not merely in name,
but in the spirit of true Christian
brotherhood. Oh Lord, let us all who
fail to appreciate this great gift which
thou gavest to the world be so con-
science-stricken that they will at once
cease from their ingratitude, and If
reverence and depart from the error
- %ho; hn0nuon cd
vocates of the Loving Master, who, as
the perfect man, said to all mankind,
Except We be converted and become
as little children, we shall not enter
the kingdom of heaven"
Dear Father, we rejoice with thee
for the hearts that Christmas will
make glad, for the little children to
whom Christmas brings so much JOY.
Also we pray thee for those bereft OF
loved ones on Christmas day to whom
this season brings painful remem-
brance. Console all that mourn the
loss of loved ones. Comfort us, 0
Lord, with heavenly vision and pre-
pare us to meet them in the molly
city. Give grace to the dying, cheer
to the sick and lonely, encourage the
unfortunate and disheartened. Take
all bitterness and hatred from our
hearts and plant within us a true
brotherhood. Give food to the nun
gry ard raiment to the poorly clad.
Help us all to find thee as our Brother
and Friend, our Comforter and ga
yior ana the giver OF life everlasting.
! We ask 1t all IN thy holy name
AMEN.

Potash and Phosphstes.

The agricultural department OF the
University OF Illinois has published an
other report dealing with the soils OF
this state and the fertilizers which
they need. This new investigation.
like the last. shows that Illinois farm
ers need not worry about potash. with
the exception Of swamp lands our soils
have all the potassium salts they need.
and the addition OF more is a stimu-
liant rather than a food.
What Illinois land usually does lack
is phosphorus. and the United States
has a plentiful supply OF phosphate
rock. This Is good news to farmers
who had been taught that the lack OF
German potash would cut down their
crops. II tends likewise to stimulate
an American industry which was be-
ing hidden behind clever foreign ad.
vertising. BY the time this war Is
over. America will know how ciuch
potash fertilizer II really needs. and
what the stun is worth on the SOIL

GOOD LINE OF BUSINESS.

II was at n campaign meeting in
Ohio. The speaker said that West vir-
gania had profited financially by vot.
ing dry. A man in the audience dis
puted this statement. He said that
he was a salesman. that he visited
every county seat In West Virginia.
and that his business had fallen OF
considerably since the state went dry.
Another man spoke up and said that
he was a salesman and made" West
Virginia regularly and that his busi-
ness had increased since the state be-
came dry. He asked the fellow who
reported a falling of what his line
was and the latter reluctantly admit.
ted that he sold undertakers' supplies,
at which the crowd yelled. The man
who declared that prohibition had
helped his business explained he sold
furniture.

FOE OF THE COLLEGES.

or all the foes OF young manhood
ON the American college campus, al
cohol is the most subtle and destruc-
tive. II is peculiarly fitting that the
American college student OF today,
wiser and better informed than his
predecessors, should give battle to his
ancient and merciless adversary. IL
gravestones were placed on our col
lege grounds to those slain In the flush
or young manhood by intoxicating
drink, the acres OF verdant lawn
around even our best institutions
would become vast cemeteries ghastly
with thick-strewn headstones. With a
devilish instinct for maximum destruc-
tiveness, this demon of the campus
seems to pick out for degradation the
gayest, The loveliest, the most talent
ed. and to reinforce his assault by en-
listing the social and generous In
stincts which constitute the very
charm OF youth. Opening always the
gate to passion and appetite. he is the
aggressive ally Of everything which
degrades college life. the promoter Of
tragedies innumerable on every caru-
pus. the tireless enemy ot virtue. pur.

SCIENTIFIC INSTRUCTION.


In 1897 two leading professors OF
Germany sent to the men OF that coun-
try pronouncement favoring total abb
stinence. II contained this declara-
tion:
Science has shown that alcohol,
even In moderate quantities. causes
disturbance in brain action. paralyzes
the critical capacity. power OF will, the
ethical and esthetic sense, and lowers
selfcontrol. For this reason we
should realize that II is a poison and
no longer to be classed with foods"
The document received nine sigma
lures. Ten years later It was sent out
again and received 500 signatures of
German medical men, 116 OF whom
were professors.
In 1918 a great antialcoholic meeting
was held In the Prussian house OF dep
uties, Berlin. The honorary president
was the German chancellor. Dr. Won
Bethmann'Hollweg, and on the commit
tee OF honor all the Prussian ministers
were represented and hundreds OF en-
inent men OF the empire. Doctor Jen-
sen, inspector general of the Berlin
schools, called forth much applause
when he said that "the education ct
youth is absolutely impossible with.
out an antialcohol element In it."
Since then such instruction has been
made a part OF the regular course in
the public schools OF Germany. and
entire courses in that subject are Of
fered by the great universities.

WHAT is AND WHAT WILL BE
GOING ON IN WASHINGTON
BY ellison Gardner
Washington, Nov. 13. - Shall the
railroads get out from under the
state commissions The railroads
and. their friends in the National
Chamber of Commerce are strong
for the affirmative on this PROPOSE
ton. They like federal regulation.
They got their 5 per cent increase in
freight rates and in other ways they
get along very nicely with the inter-
state commerce commission IN
Washington. If they could just do
away with all state railroad commits
siOns and regulate the interstate
commerce commission, what could
be more agreeable?
So there will be hearings begin
ming on Nov. 20 before a joint COM
mittee of the two houses OF congress,
headed by Sen. Francis G. Newlands
of Nevada. The first inning will be
had by a lot of railroad presidents
and standpat college professors like
Nicholas Murray Butler. Next will
come the telegraph companies and
the express companies, and after
them the shippers and perhaps old
Mr. Ultimate Consumer. The issue
of stock will also be discussed. The
railroads are quite willing to have
stock issues regulated by the L c. c.
This would in effect put the federal
government in he position of guar
anteeing earnings and dividends for
the railroads.
One of the new senators from
Maine is Frederick Hale of Portland.
