THE BABE OF BETHLEHEM

Today is Christmas. 1t is
Christmas for the reason that over
nineteen hundred years ago lit
tie babe was born in a manager in
a lowly stable at the then obscure
village of Bethlehem in Nazareth.
His father was a carpenter. His
mother without rank or station.
His childhood was spent among
the poorer classes. He grew to
manhood without special cduca-
tion. In after life he attained no
greatness in the ordinary accept
ance of the word. He led no arm
les to victory and slaughter. He
made no laws. He amassed no
wealth. He was a wanderer on
the face of the earth with no place
to lay his head. In life he had no
home; in death he had no grave.
He wrote no books. He left no
written word.
AS far as history relates the
only words he ever wrote were

bloom of youth, martyr to the
truths he taught and yet, his name
today, is loved and revered and is
household word thruout the
Christian world and will shine
with undimmed luster, long after
the names of the worlds greatest
warriors, statesmen, writers and
millionaires are forgotten and bur-
led in oblivion. The only work he
did was to heal the sick, restore
the halt, the lame and the blind
and raise the spiritually dead to
life. The only doctrine he taught
was the doctrine of love and when
that doctrine is accepted by all,
in it's fullest sense, the errors of
the ages will fade away like the
night and the dawn of new era
will begin. Then war will be no
more, poverty and hunger will be
unknown, all strife will cease and
mankind will dwell together in
peace and harmony.

Sherm Had No Choice

One bitter cold day while
Sherm Harris was over in Grand
county rounding up elk, deer and
other wild animals, he would have
frozen to death had he not run
across a country school house
where school was being held. He
found the teacher and pupils busy
at work placing a statue of Venus
on its pedestal. The statue had
been presented to the school by a
newcomer of the county who had
made rich strike in one of the
recently discovered mines. The
teacher out of curiosity began
asking the small boys questions
about the statue.
Johnny" says she, what part
of the statue do you like the
best?" Johnny said that he liked
the limbs the best. THAT will
do, Johnny, you may take your cap
and go home"
Nov Jimmy" questioned the
teacher, "you may tell what part
of the statue you like the best"
Jimmy replied that he liked the
bosom the best. "You may take
your cap, too, and go home," said
the teacher.
Nov Tommy" said the teach
er, "tell US what part of the statue
you like the best" After a mom-
ent's hesitation Tommy said: 81
guess you better give me my cap,
too"
Sherm says that the teacher
talked to him about the statue
but did not ask him what part he
liked the best.

almost unanimous vote-only one
member voting against the resolu-
tion to expel.
The governor of Wisconsin call
ed a special election to fill the va
cancy. Berger stood for reel
ection-running on the Socialist
ticket, and was opposed by fu-
sion candidate on the Democrat
and Republican tickets. When
the votes were counted, much to
the surprise of everybody, Ber-
ger was elected by a substantial
majority.
Politicians who are blessed
with political sense should be
able to CLEAN a lesson from these
facts. Berger was not elected by
law-breakers, because he had
been convicted of crime but he was
elected by the good citizens of
Wisconsin in spite of the fact.
The situation can not be explain
ed by shouting 1. w. w. and Boil
sheviki. "You can not indict a
whole people," The truth of the
matter is that Berger fought his
battle upon an issue. He may
have been right or he may have
been wrong, but he offered the
people remedy for existing con-
ditions. On the other hand the
opposition made their campaign
on the pretense that they had a
monopoly on patriotism and that
their particular brand of patriot
ism would curb profiteers, settle
all labor disputes and cure all of
the ills of the body polite. They
appealed to the prejudices and
supposed ignorance of the voters.
Their whole campaign was a cam
paign of noise without logic. The
people were asking for bread, they
gave them a stone.
The leaders of the two great
parties may we'll ponder over the
questions which these occurren-
ces will suggest-they have been
fooling the voter for forty years
with immaterial issues and high
sounding phrases but the day for
that kind of camouflage is gone.
The next election will have to be
fought out on practical lines
the people will demand a plain
and specific remedy for the exist
ing evils of our government. The
party that disputes the evils or
fails to offer the remedy has out
lived its usefulness and should be
thrown into the discard.

LUKE McLUKE SAYS

A little dab of rogue adds to a
girls appearance. But she isn't
satisfied unless her complexion is
on so thick that it cracks when
she smiles.
And what has become of the
old-fashioned man who had to be
strapped down in bed because he
saw red, white and blue snakes
running around the room?
The more woman loves man,
the more a man takes advantage
of her love by imposing on her.
When daughter is listening to
the fellow who is courting her,
she doesn't realize that she is lis
tening to the same old line of bull
that father handed mother when
he was courting her.
Too often the Welcome" on the
doormat doesn't mean anything
to the husband of the woman who
sweeps the doormat every day.
Some women would not expose
much if they were as liberal about
wearing clothes as they are about
wearing paint.
1t is important that man
should be temperate in his drink
ing. And it is equally important
that he should be temeprate in his
citing.
This would be a fine world if
everybody was a friendly as a
candidate is just before election.
We have often wondered if
there is any law prohibiting
bank president from writing his
signature so you can tell what it
means?
A man can hit tin can with a
rock every time at a distance of
20 yards. But he can't throw
cud of tobacco and hit spittoon
that is 20 feet away.
Time was when the cook had to
suit the family. But nowadays
the family must suit the cook or
she quits the job.
Every time the average man has
half hour to spare he uses it up
bothering some man who hasn't
any spare time.
And a girl does not have to be
so awfully sharp to be able to cut
fellow she doesn't like.
1t has just about got to a point
where if woman went into the
Ladies Underwear Department
and asked for a pair of wooden
ones, the salespersons would drop
dead.
What has become of the old
fashioned man who always car
ried his handkerchief in his hat?

WASHINGTON, March 3.-President Mt
Wilson tonight was ready to begin
the return journey to The peace con-
ference, having transacted in the
seven days of his stay in Washington
all pending public business except
such as will engage his attention at
the Capital in the final hours to-
morrow of this Congress. Immediate-
ly after adjournment he Will leave
for New York on his way to Paris.
Working at top speed on the last

crowds followed them and finally the
police had to intervene as traffic be-
came impeded. Several times the
President stopped to speak to wounded
soldiers.
After opening the conference of Gov.
ernors and Mayors this morning in the
East Room of the White House, Presi-
dent Wilson had his time clear for cor
respondence and the signing of bills
until shortly after noon, when he re-
celved the new Ambassador from Ar

Mr.. Wilson said in welcoming the Ar
Rentine envoy, that, notwithstanding
the confusion and dislocation of inter
ests inevitable IN such a critical period,
the relations between our two countries
have shown no strain and the friend
ship between our peoples has remained
unimpalred.
With the return of more stable
conditions many difficulties which still
hamper US will gradually decrease so
tnat we can even now look forward
with hope to the full resumption of all
normal activities.
1t is therefore a propitious moment
TOR us to strengthen further the
friendly ties that unite our nations
and our peoples more closely together
BY promoting closer relations between

just appreciation OF each other will
ensue and the danger of misunder-
standing will be minimized.

1t to Germany. According 10 this plan
the northern Saar region would be
neither French nor German. but would
occupy position somewhat similar to
the District of Columbia among the
American states. It's productive capac-
ity would doubtless go to France. but
politically its 100000 inhabitants
would not be subject to conscription
or military service either to France
or Germany, and would not elect dele
gates to the legislative body Of either
country.
Concerning the region along the west
bank Of the Rhine. the present ten
dency is toward the same form of
sterilization which would render il
impotent for German military uses
without giving it q definite politicai
status toward either side This prob
ably would be accomplished by the
same means as in the Saar region bv
making the inhabitants independent OF
conscrlption or military service to
either side
This. on broad lines, is the present
plan, which, however, is only tentative.
pending final action by the council of
the great powers.
The plans relative to other frontiers
including those of the new Czecho-
Slovakia. Rumania, Serbia and Greece
are also nearing completion.

New Map of
Europe Ready
Within w eek
Scrmany's Western Frontier
Is Main Question Yet
Confronting the Council
compromise Now Likely
saar Mining Region and
Western Bank of Rhine
May Be Denaiionalized

PARIS, March 3 By The Associated
Fress)-A new map Of Europe is
rapidly taking form, and within week
the frontiers of the old states will
largely be defined as they are to ap
pear in the peace treaty and the sue
cessive documents fixing territorial
limits
First in importance is Germany's
western frontier bordering on France.
which assumes international signif-
cance as barrier against renewal of
the present war Owing to the issues
involved the final determination of
this question is left to the council
of the great powers, but in the mean
time the tentative plans have been we'll
advanced By the commission which CO.
ordinates reports on all frontier qucs-
tions.
AS it now stands. the western IRON
tier comes under three main heads:
First, Asace- Lorraine; second, the
great iron and coal regions Of Briey
and the Saar Valley, and, third, the
extensive strip of German territory
lying on the west bank of the Rhine
from the Palatinate northward
With respect to Alsace- Lorraine the
present tendency is to make recession
Of this section to France without any
condition of a plebscte or otherwise.
The Briey and Saar valley sections
are chiefly important as furnishing
iron, steel and coal on which Ger
many's military power was based, and
it is believed that the new line will
definitely, put an end to any further
use Of these sources of German power
The main difficulty has been over
large section Of the Saar coal fields
lying beyond Lorraine and within Ger
man territory. rhe present idea
seems to be something between an
nexation Of that section and leaving
