two automobile tires, stolen from a

The proprietor of a Sapulpa garage
Informed the sheriff yesterday after
noon that Mead had made him prop
osition to sell him a large quantity
of tires at an extremely low price.
The sheriff told him to make deal
with Mead and to tell him to bring
the tires to the garage that night.
Concealed in automobiles in the gar
age the officers waited until Mead ap-
peared and leaped out for him. He
ran away with the six shooters oi all
blazing out at him. but was capturoo
after a chase of several blocks. He
has been in trouble before because
OF unlawful methods in connection
with the auto business.

~ VERY one is familiar with the
viands that go to make up the
Christmas dinner of the Eng
lish speaking races-the tur-
key, goose, plum pudding and mince
pie festivals-but how many Of us
know what they eat at Christmastidr
In foreign countries?
The Frenchman's Christmas bill Of
fare, for instance, is extensive and
varied and in many respects quite
different from our own. The great
Gallo national dishes are truftled tur
key and black buildings, of which
every Frenchman who can afford such
luxuries makes a very hearty meal at
Yuletide.
In Russia the Christmas meal consists
largely of two dishes-one of wheat
porridge served with honey and the
other a curious compound Of stewed
pears, apples, oranges, grapes and cher
ries, sweetened with honey and served
cold.
Italians, too, are fond of rather
sweet and indigestible dishes, espe
cially at Christmas. One of their
favorite combinations is that of eels,
periwinkles and vermicelli while tho
inevitable macaroni and spaghetti form,
of course, the principal articles Of food
at all times.
The German Christmas dinner offers
as it's principal attraction the goose,
without which your true German
would feel that he had not had real
holiday feast Germans, like Aus
TRANS and Italians, have very sweet
taste, as evidenced by their numerous
varieties Of cake.
Notwithstanding the tendency in all
countries to offer huge dinners at
Christmas it would seem that every
nations holiday bill Of fare is becom.
ing simpler with the course of time.
An interesting comparison may be
made Of the Christmas dinners former
ly served in England and in this coun-
try with those of today, albeit the lat
ter are by no means scanty.
The forbears of modern Englishmen
must have possessed magnificent ap-
petites. Their hospitality was con-
Quoted on a scale that would make the
housekeeper of today shudder. The
meal with which they commenced
their Christmas day, mere appetizer
to them, was ample enough to rob the
modern gourmet Of all zest for food
for several days. The sideboard Of the
old English mansion groaned under its

The basket ball game played at
Alberta on Dec. between the Cyrus
high school basket ball teams and
those of Alberta proved a double
victory for Alberta. The score was
boys game "a to IL, girls game ~
to 10 in favor of Alberta. The Cyrus
teams have commenced their basket
ball work this year, another evidence
of the progressiveness of the Cyrus
school, for both teams played very
we'll, indeed. They played especially
scientific game, adhering strictly
to the rules of the game. Never did
a finer set of gentlemen and ladies
