Put Lighted Taper In window ana
Revive Pretty Sentiment Brought
to Us From Old
Country.
MANY DID TT LAST YEAR
Hoped That Candles VIII CLEAN
From One Window Of Every
House In keokuk This
Christmas Eve.

Don't forget in all this Christmas
rush TO revive that old. old custom
of putting a candle in window in
your home on Christmas eve.
This custom wcs revived in keo-
kuk last year, and in one window Ia
nearly every iinme a light gle tmed
forth, Not only is the glow of c,.rdle
light out into the night a pretty sight.
but the sentiment back of tho old
custom is prettier yet.
Like so many of the Christmas OBJ
servances, this comes from the old
country. 1t is said that the candle
helps to guide the Christ child as he
walks through unfamiliar streets,
and by the CLEAN from the tapers He
Is able to walk through without dan
ger to Himself.
This custom has come down to
America through many generations
and has been revived into one OF the
most fascinating and beautiful bits Ct
observance of Christmas eve A
candle in the window of your home
next Sunday evening rs darkness
falls, is Just another token Of the
community Christmas spirit.

ARE NUISANCE
Several Fiocks Which Roost on Estes
Building Corniees Arouse Ire
Of nassers-by.

Somebody ought to make pot pie
ont of those nuisances.
That was the expression business
man used yesterday as he walked
along in front OF the Estes building
and saw flock OF pigeons come flying
down from the roof and land out in
the street Several other people
agreed with him that the pigeons who
have their roosts somewhere around
the big building. and who perch on
the overhanging cornices, are ccnsid-
cradle OF a nuisance and ought to be
done away with. Nothing short Of a
determined war on the pigeons, how
ever, would externinate them.

THE SAVINGS BANK STORE.

Purchased another solid car of Re
nown Stoves and Ranges, to be shipped
at once.
The Savings Bank Store has had a
phenomenal stove sale during the past
week, having sold considerably more
stoves and ranges than they expected.
The stoves they have purchased in this
carload are of the very latest design,
and classy patterns Of the famous Re-
nown Stoves and Ranges, manufac-
tured by The Independent Stove Co.,
Owosso, Mich. They are not only clas-
sy in appearance but have more labor
saving devices and attachments that
please the housewife than any other
stove line made. This goes to show
that The Savings Bank Store is very
progressive and they feel it is their
duty to furnish the people of Crystal
Falls and surrounding country with a
line OF stoves that are strictly high
grade and up-to-date.

team and the ineligibles. He did remark
able work as a coach, but he wouldn't be
satisfied with that. He was born foot
ball player and he just had to play, so to-
gether with his duties as coach he would
be found playing on the line or in the
backfield OF the second and ineligible
teams, and playing football that every
man on the squad and on the coaching
staff respected and tired TO pattern after.
Now this season has gone into history
and don't like 10 see il pass without
OSbourn receiving some real reward. I'd

OF il. but he is the sort OF chap that a
thank YOU is all the reward he looks for
from his friends, and he accepts thank
YOU as all he deserves. don't know
Just what 10 do about him"
Hinkey's remarks recalled to one OF his
listeners the treatment accorded by the
officials OF another university TO an athlete
similarly situated as OSbourn. These Of
ficials had given this man a varsity letter,
despite the fact that he had never made
a varsity team. The incident was related
to the Yale coach.
"By Jove, that's an idea. 1t may be
my last act in Yale athletics-athough !
always will be with Yale in spirit-but
I'll put that matter before The Yale board,
and I'll have the backing OF everyone
who knows OSbourn's value.
"Say, that's great. I'm glad OF that
suggestion. And maybe OSbourn won't
be tickled five put il over. He's plugged
and plugged and plugged, without thought
of reward. There really is no reward
suitable but the one you've mentioned.
Maybe il won't make OSbourn happy. A
varsity? The awarding OF il may break
million precedents, but it will be worth
il, for there never was man who more
deserved il than this chap, Osbourn.
