Mo- believe in Santa Claus! You
might as we'll not believe in fairies.
You might get your papa to hire men
to watch in all the chimneys on
Christmas Eve to catch Santa Claus'
but even If they did not see santa
Claus coming down, what would that
prove? Nobody sees Santa Claus,
but that is no sign there is no Santa
Claus. The most real things in the
world are those that neither chill
dren nor men can see. Did you ever
see fairies dancing on the lawn? or
course not: but that's no proof that
they are not there. Nobody can con-
ceive or imagine all the wonders
that are unseen and unseeaole In
the world.
You may tear apart the baby's rat
tie and see what makes the noise IN
side, but there is veil covering the
unseen world, which not the strong
est man nor even the united strength
of all the strongest men that ever
lived could tear apart. Only faith,
fancy, poetry, love, romance, can
push aside that curtain and view and
picture the supernal beauty and glory
beyond. s, Is it all real? All, Nir-
ginia, in all this world there Is
nothing else real and abiding. -
No Santa Claus! Thank God! he

CLUBS FOR SOLDIERS

VrY ILLIAM JENNINGS, local
wv War Camp Community Ser
vice chairman, has done a
good stroke of work in the organi-
zation of two clubs for soldiers in
this city, one for white and one for
colored men in the service. We have
near Harrisburg two fairly large
camps where men may be quartered
for years, the developments at both
MIddletown and New Cumberland
being of a permanent character. 1t
became highly important that these
men on leave. visiting Harrisburg,
should have some place for rest and
recreation, a headquarters where
they could meet their fellows, write
letters, read or enjoy a social hour.
But the clubs will lack seriously
in helpfulness II Harrisburg people
do not take a personal interest in
them. For example, Chairman Jen-
nings has requested that through the
clubs invitations may be extended to
soldiers by families desiring to en-
tertain men in uniform at Christ
mas dinner. These soldiers are here
in our service. 1t were a pity If we
could not do a little something for
them.

astonishing Negligence

from the Wilkes-Barre Record
AS the boys come home from
abroad and from camp many of them
are loud in complaint of the treat
ment they have had from the gov
ernment, and careful investigation
shows that it is by no means due
TO q quarrelsome desire to have
something to kick about. There
might be some excuse for delaying
the monthly payments to men in the
front lines in France shifting from
place 10 place or conveyed from one
hospital to another, but even under
such conditions there seems to be
inexcusable negligence somewhere
when the boys do not receive their
pay for as long as six months at a
time. These complaints are not few
and far between but they come from
so many OF the boys as they set foot
on these shores that they are worthy
of more than passing attention.
What is more uneXplainable is the
fact that boys who never left the
home camps to which they were
called-thousands of them-have
gone along from month to month
without q penny of the dollar day
pTDHllSeu lIell ny lhS BONGIillGhts
Some boys in company received
their full pay, some part of 1t and
some none at all. In the meantime
they were compelled to send home
for funds. AS the boys were lined up
on payday and found that there
were no remittances for many of
them, it is no wonder that they come
back discouraged and resentful.
Congress made ample appropriations
and the money was in the treasury.
The fault was somewhere in the
process of administration, and 1t
should not have existed, with all the
facilities for promptness available. 1t
should have been the purpose of the
government to have the soldiers and
sailors fully contented with the serv-
Ice, as an inducement TO future en-
listment, bat as they come back with
such stories, and also find that their
dependents in many instances did
not receive the monthly remittances
due them. they are not in a mood
to be very complimentary about the
way affairs were conducted.

Liquor and the Uniform
New York Globel

One would suppose that as long as
a man wore an army uniform he
would be under control of the War
Department. But such is not always
the case. Discharged soldiers may
wear their uniforms for three months
from the date of their discharge, dur
ing which time they are not subject
to military regulations.
William II. Anderson, head of the
Anti-Saloon League of New YORK.
has requested Secretary Baker to
urge upon Congress the necessity OF
immediate legislation to correct at
least one of the gross inconsistencies
of the present law concerning the
serving of liquor to men wearing the
United States uniform. AS 1t stands
now it is Illegal to serve intoXicants
to u soldier but not to man who
has been discharged but 1t still wear
ing the uniform. AS 1T is impossible
to distinguish at casual glance be-
tween the civilian and the non-ciVil-
ian under these circumstances, 1t Is
easy to see what grave abuses are
possible. A soldier can tell a bar
keeper, for instance, that he has been
discharged, and If the barkeeper sells
him liquor and is arrested for 1t he
would have very good excuse To
present to the Court.
Mr.. Anderson thinks all men,
whether discharged or not, who wear
the army or navy uniform, should be
amenable to military regulations
with respect to intoXicants. This is
the only sensible view to take OF
the matter. An appeal to the saloon
keepers not to serve liquor to any
uniformed man would not meet with
sufficient response. judging by the
ease with which soldiers and sailors
are able to obtain intoxicants. The
matter should be covered by law, and
Congress may well suspend the usual
formalities to get quick action.
Furthermore, the law should be
such as to subject the wearer of q
uniform to all military rules and
regulations. 1t is not the standing
of the individual that counts, but the
uniform itself, and as long as mar
chooses to wear il he should be will.
ing to conduct himself accordingly

FOR AN ALTAR LACE

1 wish the little convent maids could
trace,
With delicate artistry, an altar lace.
Showing that fair and lordly page
ant when
The Belgian King and Queen came
home again 1
To Bruges-white thread in guilt
less hand
Weave honor to the unsullied honor
of that land!
Pure white the picture-colorless ?
'Tis true!
You must imagine jewel blue
OF sky, and silver of a cloud
Above a joyous crowd;
And banners manifold
Blue, scarlet, black and gold
Decking a hundred towers;
And cobbles strewn with flowers;
And in the midst of all,
AS in a tale my nurse used tell at
evenfall
Of King and Queen so good,
Riding out scratches from the un-
chanted wood
Where powers of eYil sought them,
sadder than death,
Brave in the sunlight-Albert and
Elizabeth!
And around the border would your
eye be caught
BY symbols of the Passion, subtly
wrought,
Replacing old motifs of gayety-
The swan. the peacock, and the
| towering tree,
The ribboned pan-pipes, limiting of
meadows fair
Inlands where little. children know
not care.
Nor apple, pear, nor vine
Within the quaint design,
Nor rose, nor lilyl Instead
The leaves wherewith the years
have graced their dead.
Above: the Cross of Christ medal
lioned.
And, below:
The arms of Belgium wrought as
| white as snow!
