Santa Remembers Pastor.

Everything was very quiet at the
Presbyterian manse Christmas Eve.
until about. o'clock, when a sud
den noise on the porch aroused the
pastor, the Rev. Wiley X. Wright,
and family and caused them to hur-
ry out and there they saw big
ly-decorated tub filled with tis-
sue wrapped jars Of fruit, nuts, ETC.,
the gift of friends and lovely sur
prise to Pastor Wright and family.
These various good things and the
thought OF the kindness of such a
remembrance made Christmas day
at the manse very happy and joy
Gus occasion. Needless to say they
are all most grateful for this Yule-
tide generosity.

J. ROBERT PAGE AND MRS.
n. Z. LozAR MARRIED
Nuptial Tie Adjusted at Syracuse,
Kansas Last Friday Afternoon
by County Judge Reed.

One of the few holiday weddings
in this vicinity-an event which
almost stalled this weeks issue OF
The Chieftain-was the marriage
last Friday afternoon at Syracuse,
Kas., of j. Robert Page and Mrs. NJ.
E. Lozar. both of Holly.
Mr.. Page is the linotype operator
at The Chieftain office and the we'd
ding had been timed SO that he
and br de would return to Holly
last Monday but the wedding par
ty was snow bound at New Ulysses.
Kas., where the newly weds had
gone to spend Christmas with the
brides son, Mr.. Chas. LOZar, and
a sOn-in-law, W. s. Baker who is a
successful rancher in Grant county,
near that place, and The Chieftain
composing room was closed down
until late Friday night before &
line was set on the paper. In order
to reach here at that late hour MI.
Page was compelled to make "a
mile trip on foot across the prairies
and sandhills to reach the rail
road through three feet OF badly
drifted snow through which it was
impossible for horse to go.
However, once at the w. S. Bak-
er place on the farm the newly
wcds enjoyed grand feast and a
Merry Christmas.
Mrs. LOzar and family have lived
in Holly for the last decade and is
well known here, where they have
many friends. Mr.. Page is broth
cr of the editor of The Chieftain
and came here from Wyoming
shortly after the paper was bought
from Mr.. WoodhOuse. He has since
been operating the linotype in the
composing room of The Chieftain
which position he still retains.
Mrs. Page is expected to return
as soon as the weather moderates
and the roads out of New Ulysses
become passable.

Holiday Family Reunion.

Among the Yuletide gatherings
this week of exceptional felicity was
a reunion of the family of Mr.. and
Mrs. J. P. Linville, all of whose chill
dren were gathered under the par
entail roof and enjoyed a splendid
Christmas dinner. Those included
in this happy event besides Mr.. and
Mrs. Linville, were their three
daughters, Mesdames Chas. Over
dorf and G. H. Lewis of La Junta,
and Mrs. Geo. Williams, of Denver,
and Lieut.. L. w. Linville, recently
mustered out of the military SER
vice. The ladies came Monday and
will remain till after New Years.
Lieut.. Linville is preparing to take
law course in Denver early in the
new year.

Johnson Nov sn Ances tor.

Many people about Holly won
dered just why j. .R. johnson, the
genial cashier of the First National
bank, was 'flaxing" around so
briskly, and apparently trying to
beat old Santa Claus to it last
week with q distribution of holi-
day souvenirs, etc. But it's all
quite plain now. a boy baby was
born to Mr.. and Mrs. johnson at
Hutchinson, Kas., last Monday.
Mrs. johnson had been visiting rel
atives at Hutchinson for some
weeks and j. r. was making pre-
parations to spend the holidays
with Mrs. johnson and other rela-
tives at Hutchinson. He left here
Monday. but on account of the i'm.
passable conditions of the rail.
roads, was marooned for "a hours
at Coolidge, Kas., en- route to
Hutchinson. OF course j. r. will
be all swelied up as result of his
new parental responsibilities when
he returns-which will not be till
after New Years. However, we're all
hoping to smoke up when ]. r..
shows up.

STORM 10 Ull ana rain and sIeet, driv-
en- by a tempestuOus Windk- beat
upon our port side with Savage
Jury. Mighty waves, or sWells, hit
the ship bodily converting its usual
steadlneSs into series OF semi-Spi-
rails which are apt to separate a
man from his much cherished
breakfast, and which have already
persuaded many proud head to
seeks its pillow as a surcease from
the intense agOnies OF seaslckness
This life is great Ieveller and as
write these lines proud digniJarles,
who at home, grace the leading pui-
pts oi the Ianu, as Weii as the laSBt'
humble parsonage on the passefi-
ger llSu, seek the same raining on
the starboard side with the same
in mind and In the same hunDie ii
ion with the fishes.
Personally, I'm doing fine and.
deyoCing appropriate attenti to
the splendid cuisine. The food is
TOO nicely prepared and too attrac-
tive to induce me, even for mo.
ment, to indulge in the luxury OF
seaSickneSs.
The war may be over but there is
no evidence of it in our environ
ments. The various ships which
make up our convoy, the daily life
boat drills and the constant wear
ing of life belts all testify to the
grlmness of war and the uneasiness
among some of the passengers has
not been lessened by the announce
ment, made before we left New
York, that the revolutionists in
Germany would fight the peace
terms and that the Reds" in full
charge OF the navy, had sailed out
of their ports looking for trouble
Ii the "Reds' should meet us in
mid-ocean 1T would be disconcert
ing, I'm forced to admit, for while
I'm great on fOot-racing on land the
sea offers very slight chances to ex
ercise myself in this direction.
Perhaps | would not be violating
the censorship to say that | have
been put in charge of squad of
soldiers and four life RATS for the
purpose of getting them off safely
in case our ship is torpedoed, in
case we should crash into an ice
berg, or in case of other mishaps.
They are among the finest boys of
the whole ships cargo of troops
and they have an exalted opinion
of the "Y'. I'll be in good company
whether they are or not.

Christmas Tree for the Kiddies

For the past eight or ten years it
has been custom with the fami-
lies of Mayor L. NJ. Appel, John
Duncan, j. w. Wilkins and j. G.
Schleger to have real Christmas
tree at some one of their homes,
where all the rest were invited. This
year the tree was displayed at the
home of Mayor Appel. John Dun
can. Is in his delight when he can
make the kiddies happy and he
knows how, for he always brings
in good supply Of toy drums,
horns, etc, which are productive OF
plenty of Yuletide noise. This year
was no exception in this respect.
So that the annual Christmas tree
at the Appel home last Tuesday
night was joyous occasion. There
was no real Santa Claus but Mr..
Wilkins gave out the presents.
