OFFICIAL PAPER OF APACHE COUNTY
SEPTEMBER 13, 1917.
Large Timber Operation Planned
 for Arizona.

Albuquerque, Sept. An appli- cation for the purchase of 235 million feet of western yellow pine located on the Sitsgreaves Ma tional Forest in eastern Arizona has been received and approved by the Forest Service. The pros pective purchasers have also ap- piled for approximately 400 mil lion feet of adjoining timber on the White Mountain Indian Res ervation. Conditions are such, it is stated, that both sales can be operated by one concern. Be- cause of the large investment re- quired to log either chance it is expected that the two bodies of timber will be sold to one pur- chaser.
 The officials of the Forest Ser vice point out the fact that the operation of the timber will ne- cessitate t h e construction of about 70 miles of common carrier, standard-guage railroad, which probably will be built south from Holbrook, Arizona, or some near by point on the Atichison, Topeka & Santa Fe Railroad. The new railroad will, it is stated, tra- verse q section which is as yet largely undeveloped. It is at present for the most part given over to stockraising, but contains a considerable amount of agricul- tural land. It it expected that the construction of the railroad will give an impetus to agricul- tural development and will ma terially aid in the upbuilding of the country. In this way, it is pointed out, the sale of the Gov ernment timber is of importance to the sections in which the For ests are located, aside from the revenue which is returned to the Federal Treasury, and to the State for schools and roads, in lieu of taxation.
 The probable location of the mill will be just south of the Sit greaves National Forest on the Indian Reservation.

New York TO Pefrograd by
Rail is Latest Engineering Idea

Large ferries would carry freight
and passenger cars across tho &C.
mile wide strait.
Negotiations have been opened with
the Russian Government TO improve
the Trans-siberian railway into a
modern road instead OF a primitive
stretch OF track overburdened by war
transportations. The United States
commission to Russia Will take up
that phase Of the proposed line with
the new Russian Government.
Men back OF the undertaking be-
lieve that within a few years an in.
ternational railway win connect New
York with Petrograd. They are taking
into consideration the possibility OF
the war lasting several years. The
promoters OF the project are satisfied
that future benefits would justify The
vast financial outlay that will bl
necessary. They declare that a fey
years OF world peace would make th
most important railway route o
earth.

The herald. [volume] (New Orleans, La.) 1905-1953, 1917-12-13

A writer In the Pail Mall Gazette
thus speculated concerning the amalga-
nation of Christmas eve and st. Nicho-
las eve: perhaps the amalgamation
Of the two festivals was brought about
by motives Of economy, the giving Of
presents on December and again on
December IS constituting too heavy a
toll on parental purses. That this was
the case appears to be proved by the
custom prevailing in Catholic Germany,
where st. Nicholas duly appears In
each home on December 8, and, inquir-
Ing into the conduct of the children,
rewards the worthy with fruits and
cakes and lectures the unworthy on the
duty of obedience. He then asks the
Christ Child to bring them at Christ
mas. and on the morning of that day
they usually find the desired articles In
the shoes which they placed overnight
on the hearth. This variation Of the
original Nicholas eve custom. for so
long obsolete in England, probably &C
counts for our possession Of Santa
Claus In his present form. He is
supposed to have been an Importation
from America about 40 years ago
Gas O little earlier we had derived the
Christmas tree from Germany on the
initiation Of the prince consort, hus-
band Of Queen Victoria.)"

Cypsies' Christmas.

The gypsy Christmas is love feast
and q carnival In one. The wandering
folk come together in tribal celebration
to choose their queen for the beginning
year. Each clan has its own usages
and superstitions. In Roumania the
cradle, so they say, of nomadism, the
gypsy ore..S. is crowned with roses, and
-oses tin her scennter and her wand. In
place Of holly and mistletoe the hardy
little rosebud which blossoms at this
season on the apex of the hills is hon.
ored not for its sweetness merely. but
because of fair Christmas legend
which the gypsy folk would make dis
dnctively their own.-Chicago Tribune.
