Santa Claus Boil -.

By EDITH c. LAM -rl5-7-r
Over the ground one winters night
The stars all out, and twinkling bright,
Santa Claus in his big red sleigh,
Across the country made his way.
He thought Of all the girls and boys,
Of what might add to present joys,
Then decided he would give a dance,
With bells and music, and perchance
A tree Of prickly, long-spiked pine,
With ropes Of holly to entwine,
Round gay oranges and popcorn
And not a soul should feel foTlorn.
lack Frost was asked for his opinion,
He straightway flew to his dominion,
From its bounteous store to plumber,
Rare gifts Of bewildering wonder.
Sir Moon promised he would send
The brightest light from round the bend,
Each shining star was asked to guide
Some lonely heart to Santa's side.
Dear Santa laughed in greatest glee,
And promised it should certainly be
The finest ball they ever had seen,
Moreover there should be a queen
With crown so jewel-imbedded
'Twould surely make one dizZy-headed
To gaze for long upon such treasures,
Then, besides these many pleasures.
There should arrive a Tally-ho,
That adriving all might 60,
Over the snow-clad hills and plains,
Filling the air with gay Tefrains.
The woods should echo the ringing
Of gladstone voices singing
The praises of old Kris Kringle,
Even the sleighbells would jingle.
And carol the happiest song,
As the gay crowd rolled along,
Hip, Hip, Hurrah for Santa Claus,
The jolliest host that ever was.

Shocks and Houston took place in the

lem-self- government for Ireland-is
now not only the subject of comment
iii the Irish newspapers but is forming
an absorbing topic for editorials and
special articles in the Northcliffe press,

suggested that America may have a
direct hand in the settlement; its intlu-

in increased recruiting il Ireland.
The F'reeman's Journal, the official
organ of the Nationalist party, says
1T is quite true that nobody would ex-
pect America to interfere in England's
domestic differences, but as time goes

RRAZIL CONTROLS IT'S
GERMAN POPULATION

RIO De JANIRO, May 9.-Stories to
the effect that German colonists settled
in the three southermost states of
Brazil are sufficiently numerous and
organized to dictate terms at the bay
onet's point should the occasion ever
arise were made to appear ridiculous
by the publication today of statistics
showing that the total huber of Ger
mans immigrating to Brazil since 1923
is less than 10000.
Up to the time of the fall of the en-
pire in 1889 only 1881 Germans had
entered Brazilian ports. From 1889 to
1915 this number was increased by
56,102, making total of 131,489. The
census returns gives the descendants
of these Germans as Brazilians-may
be "hyphenated" but Brazilians.
