Something new IN luncheon sets is
made of stiff white silk muslin, very
small gilt cord and white and green
water color paints. 1t consists OF a
centerpiece and twelve doilies to
match and is made in a conventional
lied chrysanthemum design. The
doilies are small replicas of the CEN
terpiece.
A large circle is cut from the mus
lin for the centerpiece and a few
French knots, of dark yellow embroid-
cry silk, are worked in the center to
represent the stamens. Three rows of
petals are outlined on the centerpiece
with white paint and the tiny gilt
cord is sewed with yellow silk thread
along the outline of each petal. The
petals are crowded little at one side
to allow three light green leaves to
be painted in. A little white paint is
brushed in at the point of each petal
and the muslin about the edge trimmed
away from them.
The doilies are made in the same
way but on a smaller scale.

CHRISTMAS REUNIONS

TTOW many families whose men,
bers have been dispersed and
scattered far and wide in the
restless struggles of life are on this
day reunited and meet once again in
that happy state of companionship and
mutual good will which is a source of
such pure and unallOyed delight and
one so incompatible with the cares and
sorrows of the world that the religious
belief of the most civilized nations
and the rude traditions of the rough
est savages alike number it among the
first joys of a future condition of ex-
istence provided for the blest and
happy! How many old recollections
and how many dormant sympathies
does Christmas time awaken Charles
Dickens.

"BOXLNG DAY"

4 MERICANS go back to the "grind"
N on the day after Christmas, smok-
ing the cigars that the wife chose
because of the pretty bands" but
the Englishman observes boxing day
that day. The name would lead one
to suppose something in the nature of
a fistic encounter, but the supposition
is wide of the mark. The ''bOxing"
means simply boxes-the neat little
packages presented to the housemaid,
the cook, the pOstman, the policeman,
the railway conductor, the dustman.
The boxes are now generally quite
round, about the size of a fifty cent
piece in the great number of cases,
and are as much silver as the govern
ment thinks best to put into a two
shilling piece or a half crown.

BEST CHRISTMAS GIFT

"a fountain pen," answered an en-
thusiastic young philosopher to the
question, what was your best Christ
mas gift?"
Il had hundred-dollar watch given
to me once" he. added, 'but even that
isn't as necessary as a fountain pen.
If you get the right kind you simply
wouldn't be caught dead without it,
1t never leaks. 1t never clogs. It'll
write clear, steady line on any old
paper. It'd be cheap at $40, and it
only cost $2.5

sation of Tuesday afternoons session
Wednesday

The leading feature of the trial to-
day was the direct and cross exam
ination of Mrs. Daniel Lehman, moth
er of the accused. Natural mother
love was unregarded by the prosecu-
ton in the searching cross-examina-
tion to which Mrs. Lehman was sub
jected, and her testimony was weak
ened by the contradictions which she
was led by the searching questions
into making.
The Defense called Lou Hoodless,
Mr.. and Mrs Favorite, uncle and aunt
of Grace Lehman; Mr.. and Mrs. Ira
Patterson, George Koder, Lehman's
uncle; Florence Geiger, and John
Borck as witnesses during the day
as to Lehman's manifestations of
grief during the time his wife lay
corpse in the home and at the ceme-
terry; also that Fred Lehman was not
smoking a cigar during the funeral
services at the cemetery. Assistant
Prosecutor Ham on -eXamina-
ton developed some interesting data
in regard to the defective eyesight of
some of the witnesses and that un-
friendly relations had existed between
the Favorites and Grace Lehman.
Mrs. Lehman took the witness chair
at 3 o'clock. On direct examination
Mrs. Lehman stated that she was up,
using the telephone, when she first
heard of the tragedy; that on going
to her sons home she built a fire,
warmed some water and washed blood
from Fred's face; she noticed that
his shirt was open and torn on the
right side and that his clothes were
damp and rumpled up. She said that
she slept in the east room upstairs
Monday night and in the west room
Tuesday night; that she did not get
any information in regard to the find
ing of the revolver until after the
funeral; that she made trips to the
well near the milk-house to get water
to cool the milk and for the chick
ems, and to the milk-house itself for
the purpose of getting milk for use
in the house. Under cross-examina-
ton, Mrs. Lehman told of finding a
revolver in the house which had been
left there by "Floyd" and of finding
money in the secret drawer Mrs
Lehman professed ignorance of any
intimacy between Fred and Alley Fen
ton, but admitted mentioning some
thing about it in conversation with
others.
The indications Wednesday evening
that the examination of witnesses
will not be completed before the emo
of this week, and that the pleas OF
the attorneys on either side will not
be given until court re-convenes af,
ter Christmas.
The daily papers seem to have re-
F porters on the job who supply with
vivid imagination a colorful setting
for the trial; at least, enough OF
= "camoufage" to attract the daily
, press of the large cities of the coun.
try and induce them to give space OF
their pages to Wauseon and it's court
r room. Personally, we have not wit
messed any mob violence in the vi
, cinity of the court house. What we
do see is regrettable domestic trag
= edy under the searching scrutiny o.
! the law, that the guilty party or par
! ties may be discovered and punished

ID OASTED swan was the Christmas
N piece de resistance in Chaucer's
day, but this dish gave place to
the peacock, and the peacock in its
turn was conquered by the turkey,
when Capt. John Smith, fresh from
his Virginian wars, came home to tell
the amazed English folk of the bird
that he saw parading the new world
forests, Exactly like a proud Turk
showing off before his harem."
When the peacock was in its glory
at Christmastide its plumage was gen.
orally restored to the roasted bird and
Its beak gilded. Sometimes the whole
strip of cotton, saturated with spirit,
set alight in it's beak-a relic possibly,
with the English Snapdragon and
blazing pudding, of the fire worship of
pagan days. A lady of noble birth and
great beauty was always chosen to
bear the bird into the banqueting hall.
In the days of tournaments it was
over the peacock that the knights, with
uplifted swords, Swore their oaths of
chivalry and valor. The last record of
such fare seems to have been not upon
a Christmas, but at the banquet give
by the duke of Granada to the duk-
Of Clarence, afterward William " of
England.
1t must be admitted that golden pea
cocks and boars' heads have most al
Turing sounds to one with a jaded ap-
petite, and the England of old. with
its roistering carol singers. seems a
most attractive land to have lived in.
But the Englishman of today is more
than well content to have his carols
sung by little cockney lad, to laugh
at the pantomimes in his magnificent
ly comfortable theaters and to feast at
home on turkey, mince pie and the
blazing pudding.

Passing Christmas
EUe Outdoors

WE asa all slept eD GRstns CRdsF the stars sna as
shut oneself up In a room from
the delicious South African night is
simply to miss one Of the Joys of liv-
ing. mo one knows the stars who
has not slept, as the French happily
put, it, la belle etoile. He may know
all their names and distances and mag
nitudes and yet be ignorant of what
alone concerns mankind-their serene
and gladsome influence on the mind"
Stevenson surely would have loved
Rhodesia for its nights alone.
One great advantage of the long
drought from which we had been suf-
fering--in Rhodesia one must needs be
an optimist or die-is that there were
practically no mosquitoes and very few
flies, so that the STIFFNESS of a mos
quito curtain was unnecessary.
The night was cool and silent, ex-
cept for the distant howl of a jackal
and the occasional hoOt of an owl.
About five o'clock the life of day began
to stir, and the sun gradually turned
the mopani and mimosa trees to a
golden green and bathed US in the
scent of mimosa blossom, the go away
bird called impertinently from a bush
close by, and two green parrakeets
few over our heads.
Then one little sleeper after another
rubbed his eyes and crept to the foot
of the LED to fathom the treasures of
/ the Christmas stocking. AS the sun
rose higher tongues were loOsened, and
soon crackers cracked, and trumpets
six of them, were heralding the morn
If not exactly in the manner of the an
gels.
The noise worried no one. But when
we had had enough we dispersed tc
seek baths, and some of US were ever
energetic enough to have a round OF
golf before breakfast-"The Heart Of

ReUiUing Old Time
YuLe Customs

CPECIAL efforts are being made by
y women in many communities to
spread rev ii of the old Gus
toms regarding Christmas. Some years
ago Boston woman with a touch of
antiquarian spirit managed to stimu-
late Boston to revive a pretty Yule-
tide custom by celebrating its coming
by singing carols in the streets and by
Illuminating the houses through the
placing of candles in the windows.
Other cities emulated Boston in this
matter. In Carlisle, Pa, community
Christmas tree was lighted in the pub
lie square, and its glowing joy was
continued all along the streets-by light
ed candles placed in the windows,
many of which showed in the middle
of the rooms so lighted up, displayed
to the passersby in the night, private
Christmas trees, the glitter and beauty
of which thus were shared with all.
An objection to this attempt at glad
ness-at least so far as concerns the
use of candles-has been the risk of
fire. But these days of electricity or
even of gas seem to minimize the idea
of danger, and there are different de-
vices that may be applied to dosaway
| with all risk in the carrying out of
the friendly suggestion. 1t is advised
therefore that 'the gladness and
brightness of the home on Christmas
eve be not kept behind closed blinds"
and to that end it is suggested that the
| light from every window, whatever its
nature, be permitted to shine into the
streets until midnight. The idea of
! light is associated with all that is good
in life. The glow of the cracking Yule
log betokened the hospitality ready to
greet the stranger at that time, but
there was more 20 it than that. Light
in days gone by was supposed to keep
off evil spirits.-Sallie Wistar in Phila-
delphia Public Ledger.

It's Christmas
Time Again

There's a fire in the CRATE and a
light in the hall,
For it's Christmas time again,
And the sleighbells ring and the
children call,
For it's Christmas time again.
It's time for a Christian land to raise
Her loudest paeans Of love and
praise
For the Holy Babe Of the Bethlehem
days,
I For it's Christmas time again.
There's a wreath Of green at the
s windowpane,
For it's Christmas time again,
And the church bells echo the glad
refrain,
For it's Christmas time again.
Oh, it's time to turn with the golden
smile
To the friend we doubted and
scorned awhile,
To rid our hearts Of their greed and
guile!
For it's Christmas time again.
