And Keep Your
Christmas Green

Bring in the trailing forest moss,
Bring cedar, fir and pine,
And green festoon and wreath and cross
Around the windows Irvine.
Against the whiteness of the wall
Be living Verdure seen,
Sweet summer memories to recall
And keep your Christmas green.
II is his dear memorial day
Who broke earth's frozen sleep
And who for her hopes eladdenins ray
Forever bright will keep.
He gives all IoveIiness that grows,
The strong and graceful trees,
The winter moss, the fresh June rose
The dear Lord saves US these.
Who saves US from the piteous wreck
Of souls adrift in sin,
So not alone the churches deck,
But peaceful homes within
Made peaceful by his constant love,
Let thoughts of him abide.
To find US our lost home above
He homeless lived and died.
We keep the bright home festival
And, with a childlike cheer,
His angel ushered birthday call
The merriest of the year.
Yes, merry Christmas let it be,
A day to love and give,
Since every souls best gift is he
Who came that we might live.
And all things beautiful are his,
And his he maketh ours,
So bring each bud that bursting is,
All Christmas blooming flowers,
All blossoms that in windows shine,
With leaves to light unfurled,
In memory of that Flower Divine
Whose fragrance fills the world.
Be all old customs honored so
That good to others mean,
Bring cross and garland from the snow
And keep your Christmas green.

Man Murdered at Lewiston

Lester Clifford, a young farmer
residing east of Lewiston, was
shot and instantly killed in the
Idanha pharmacy in that city
Saturday evening by Joe Freng,
a 17-year old boy. Freng had
worked for Clifford last summer
on the farm and while employed
there broke through the bottom
of a header box and received in
juries which later necessitated an
operation, and he was but recent
ly released from the hospital. He
met Clifford on the street Satur-
day night and held him up with
revolver and asked for a settle
ment, demanding $3.50 to cover
his hospital expenses. Clifford
said he had no check book and
they stepped into the drug store
and asked for a blank check.
Clifford demurred at writing the
check but was told he had better
write it and Freng stated if any,
one tried to interfere there would
be something doing. In the
meantime a man who had been
left to hold Chords team mott
fled the police and as an officer
stepped into the drug store Freng
shot Clifford and also fired at the
proprietor of the store before the
officer could overpower him. Gift
ford was killed instantly and a
bullet passed through the drug
gist's sleeve. Freng fired four
shots in all, two of them going
into the floor near his feet.
The murdered man was the son
of Mr.. and Mrs. C. L. Clifford
and was only % years of age.
He leaves wife and baby daugh-
ter only a few weeks old. He
had been farming his father
place for the past few years.
Freng is being held in Jail at
Lewiston and does not seem to be
sorry of his deed. He stated the
act was premeditated.

A Christmas Song

oh, Christmas is jolly time,
When forests hang with snow,
And other forests bend with toys,
And lovely YuIe logs glowi
And Christmas is a solemn time,
Because, beneath the Star,
The first great Christmas gift was given
To all men, near and far.
But not alone at Christmas time
Come holiday and cheer,
For one who loves a little child
Hath Christmas all the year.

Saving For Christmas.

Saving For Christmas.
Any plan that induces almost half
the population of city of 10000 peo-
pie to save in small amounts $4,000
a year is worthy of study. The Oil
City Trust company Of Oil City, Pa,
has a Christmas Saving club, which
has grown greatly in recent years. The
object in starting the club was to en-
able people of limited means to set
aside small amounts each week to be
paid to them, with interest, two weeks
before Christmas. Members may be-
gin by paying cent a week, increas-
ing the amount by cent each week
until the fifty are up. This amounts
to $12.75 per year. A second class calls
for a two cent saving the first week,
adding the initial amount each succeed
ing week. This makes a total saving
of $3.50 for the year.-Leslie's

CRANE BRUSHES
 WORK MAN AT
 BRASS FACTORY
Carpenter Enters Window High in Shop as Travelling
 Holster Passes.

A desire to hasten his work upon a window high above the flooring o1 the Housatonic branch of the Bridge port Brass Co. cost the life of Otto Zelpsky, aged 32, a carpenters helper living at 70S Hallett- street.
 Zelpsky is believed to have thrust his body through an upper window of the roof of the building as one ot the big three ton travelling cranes bore down upon him. The body was horribly crushed between the brick wall of the building and the housing about the crane.
 When the operator who had no req son to expect person was in the path of his mechanism brought the crane to a stop Zelpsy's body was so crushed that he died before Dr. George B. Cowell, the company s physician could be summoned. It was removed with difficulty from it's position near the. roof of the build ing and taken to the morgue. His body has been claimed by Mrs. Adam Fisher, a sister with whom he lived. Though death has been found by the Medical Examiner S. M. Garlick to be due to probable accidental causes, Coroner John J. Phelan probably will be called upon to pass officially on the death in his official capacity at a formal inquest
