THE MUNICIPAL CHRISTMAS.
Had Its Origin In Germany and Is
Spreading Here Rapidly.

The celebration of the Community
Christmas in this country originated
in a dinner table conversation of a
group of artists in New York in 1912.
One of the group, a young man who
had just returned from study in Ger
many, was enthusiastic over the com-
munity festivals there, and the trans
planting of the celebration to the
United States had its birth at that
time. The first community Christmas
tree in this country was the Madison
square 'Tree of Light in 1912. Vari-
Gus factors in the life of New York as
a community contributed to the ar
rangement and financing of the tree.
Since then the custom has spread to
hundreds of cities, towns and villages,
which have adapted the idea to their
particular needs and circumstances
and plan to make it a permanent es-
tablishment. The custom has existed
in Germany for many years, is in fact

and how to do it" III planning and or

committees and more efficient mobili-
zation of coal transportation and pro-
duction.
By Oct. l Mr.. Garfield hopes to have
the entire scheme well under way. The
coal conservation campaign will be
started Immediately.
If everything else fails the coal pro-
duced will be pooled under government
control and distributed arbitrarily by
government agencies wherever most
needed.
Operators protesting President VIII
sons prices are given uniform cost
sheets which they must fill out and re-
turn to Mr.. Garfield. One of the first
results promised by government con-
accounting and bookkeeping.
John P. White, president of the Unit
ed Mine Workers, has begun work as
Mr.. Garfield's aid in obtaining maxi
mum production from the miners. For
this Mr.. White is convinced a wage
increase will be necessary to keep the
miners from going to better paid NUM-
ton trades. A substantial raise is as
sured.
The coal conservation campaign will
follow the lines of Herbert Hoover's
anti : food = waste wheatless : meatless
days. The best method of tending a
furnace, banking a fire at night and
conserving the fuel supply will be
taught to every household and every
apartment ~janitor and skyscraper fire
man in the country.
Eight Cent Breadth Sight.
Bread prices will drop with the prom
Used fall in cost Of flour, sugar and
other elements Of baking. The fourteen
ounce loaf will sell for less than 8
cents, though perhaps not 5 cents, a
high authority in the Hoover food adj
ministration promised.
The proposition is now before the Ma
tional Bakers association which, in
response to Herbert Hoover's personal
appeal, is considering voluntary reduc-
ton in bread prices. The association
will refer the matter to local bakers
everywhere before giving an answer.
By Oct. 1, it is officially promised, the
bread price problem will be settled.
If the bakers act jointly to lower
prices, the food administration will
technically have violated the antitrust

Especial correspondence

Washington. = The preliminary sur
vey of the food production sources of
the country, while not completed, has
advanced to a stage to indicate an am
pie winter supply if properly conserv-
ed. The damage to crops in the middle
west by unreasonable weather is not as
great as was indicated by first reports.
The recent bulletins showed frost in
Michigan, in parts of Illinois, Ohio, In
diana, Iowa, Kansas and Missouri only
slightly affected crops and did not de-
stroy them, as was first believed. The
damage, while approximately several
millions, has alarmed neither the agri-
cultural department nor the food adj
ministration bureau.
Officials of the former department
supply the information that the curtail-
ment of food supplies due to climatic
changes will not be extensive enough
appreciably to affect the estimates of
production made at the end of August.
Officials Are Not Alarmed.
The food bureau expresses the I'M
official view that the present outlook
for an adequate winter supply, with
diligent safeguarding, will obviate the
necessity for any drastic governmental
steps to regulate consumption.
Reports have been current in several
parts of the country that, owing to crop
conditions, Administrator Hoover seri-
ously was considering the ACCESSIBILITY
of moving to regulate food consump-
tion. Some of these reports had it that
before cold weather sets in bread II
meat cards would be resorted to to re-
strict consumption of edibles in the
hotels, restaurants and other agencies.
It can be stated ON excellent authority
there is no foundation for these re-
ports.
With ordinary precautions there will
be enough food of all kinds not only to
permit normal average consumption
during the winter, but to take care of
the enormously increased demands of
the allies and neutral nations.
The food department is devoting its
attention to the meat supply, and it is
not improbable it shortly will be in a
position to regulate the output, distri-
button and sale of it on lines almost
identical with those which already
have been put into operation to govern
wheat.
y A step toward bringing meat prOduc-
ton under government regulation was
decided on at a meeting between Adj
Aministrator Hoover and representatives
Of the meat packers. The result of the
Conference, which continued all day,
was that the government should apply
b license system to meat products as
it has done with grain and fuel.
Start Coal Saving Fight.
A great coal conservation campaign,
an advisory board from the coal indus
try to aid H. A. Garfield, fuel admins
traitor, and priority relief to homes
threatened with freezing, are among
the governments constructive plans for
dealing with the coal CRISIS.
This, it was officially learned, is in
addition to the announced policy of
speedy solution of price problems by
state fuel controllers, local retail price

There is story that Nolan met
Burr once in one of our vessels,
when a party of Americans came
on board in the Mediterranean
But this believe to be a lie; or,
rather, 1t Is a myth, ben trovato,
involving a tremendous blowing
up with which he sunk Burr-ask-
ing him how he liked to be
without a country" But It Is
clear from Burr's life that nothing
of the sort could have happened;
and | mention this only as an Illus
tration of the stories which get-a-
going where there Is the least mys-
terry at bottom.
So poor Philip Nolan had his
wish fulfilled. l know but one fate

have one day to exile themselves
from their country because they
have attempted her ruin, and shall
have at the same time to see the
prosperity and honor to which
she rises when she has rid herself
of them and their iniquities.
The wish of poor Nolan as we
all learned to call him, not be-
cause his punishment was too
great, but because his repentance
was so clear, was precisely the
wish of every Bragg and Beaure-
gard who broke a soldiers oath
two years ago, and of every Maury
and Barron who broke sailors.

all that in them lay that they

and hopes which belong to "coun-

tie shreds and distributed to the
winds. I know, too, that their
punishment, as they vegetate thru
what Is left of life to them In
wretched Bolognes and Leicester
Squares, where they are destined
to upbraid each other till they die,
will have all the agony of Nolan's,
with the added pang that every
one who sees them will see them
to despise and to exeorate them.
They will have their wish, like
him.

that the very elements were melt

something was to pay somewhere.
Even the negroes themselves stop
ped bowling, as they saw Nolan's

equal agony of sympathy. AS
quick as he could get words, he
said:

/ For him, poor felloy, he repent
ed Of his folly, and then, like q
man. submitted to the fate that he
had asked for. He never inten-
tionally added to the difficulty or
delicacy of the charge of those
who had him in hold.
His Repentance Complete
Accidents would happen; but
they never happened from HIS
fault. Lieutenant Truxton told me
that when Texas was annexed
they was a careful discussion
among the officers whether they
should get hold of Nolan's hand
some set Of maps and cut Texas
out of it-from the map of the
world and the map of Mexico.
The United States was cut out
when the atlas was bought for him.
But 1t was voted. rightly enough,
that to do this would be virtually
to reveal to him what had hap
pened, or, as Henry Cole said, to
make him think Old Burr had sue
ceeded. So 1t was from no fault OF
Nolan's that a great botch hap
pened at my own table when, for
a short time l was In command of
the George Washington corvette,
on the South American station.
We were lying in the La Plata,
and some of the officers, who had
been on shore and had just Joined
again, were entertaining us with
accounts of their misadventures In
riding the half-wild horses of
Buenos Aires. Nolan was at table,
and was In an unusually bright and
talkative mood.
Some story of tumble remind
ed him Of an adventure of his own,
when he was catching wild horses
In Texas with his adventurous
cousin at time when he must
have been quite boy. He told the
story with good deal of spirit
so much so that the silence which
often follows a good story hung
over the table for an instant, to
be broken by Nolan himself. For
he asked, perfectly unconsciously:
Asks About Texas
Pray, what has become of
Texas? After the Mexicans got
their independence l thought that
province of Texas would come for
ward very fast. 1t is really one of
the finest regions on earth; 1t is
the Italy of this continent. But I
have not seen or heard a word of
Texas for near twenty years."
There were two Texan officers
at the table. The reason he had
never heard of Texas was that
Texas and her affairs had been
painfully cut out of his newspa-
pers since Austin began his settle
ments; so that, while he read of
Honduras and Tamaulipas, and,
till quite lately. of California
this virgin province in which his
brother had travelled so far and,
l believe. had died, had ceased to
be to him. Waters and Williams,
the two Texas men, looked grimly
at each other and tried not to
laugh.
Edward Morris had his atten-
tion attracted by the third link
in the chain of the captains chan
delier. Watrous was seized with
a CONFUSION of sneezing. Nolan
himself saw that something was
. to pay, he did not know what.
