LORE Of THE YuLE LOG
Should Be Lighted From Portion Of
Last Years Which Should %
Preserved for Good Luck.

The Yule-log, probable variant Of
the bonfire-so characteristic Of sun
festivals has some interesting folk
lore Of it's own.
In medieval England, its duration
scoincided with the Christmas revels,
AS long as it burned, the tenant had q
right to feed at the lords expense. The
log was often cut from an ash.tree-
the sacred tree Of our Saxon forefath-
ers. There is a gypsy legend that our
Lord was born in field and brought
up by an ash fire..
The log should, properly, be lighted
with portion Of last years log, 4
piece of which is always supposed to
be- preserved for luck. At the same
time that the Christmas fire was lit, the
Christmas candle had to be lighted.
"a portion Of last years taper has al
50 to be kept.) 1t, was unlucky to SNUFF
the Christmas candle, which burned
for II days period Of festivity.
At st. Johns college, Oxford, can still
be seen the ancient stone socket with
the Agnus Del stamp, in which the
Christmas candle was placed on the
high table.
On the Isle of Man, the folk former
y carried long tapers to church On
Christmas eve.

FIRST ESSENTIAL FOR
COOPERATION.

The division of research in agricul-
tural economics at University Farm,
after having made a protracted study
Of cooperation by farmers, finds that
Minnesota leads. all, the states in the
number of cooperative companies. It
finds, too, that Minnesota's lead is not
likely to be challenged for many years
to come. Sound economic need is. cited
by the investigators as the basis sor a
successful cooperative company.
"Such need exists" they declare,
where the present markets give poor
service or take too large profits; where
the present marketing system is waste
full and expensive. and whenever the
farmers by combining can reach better
markets with their products or teach
themselves to turn out better products. .

strength to turn out days work when
wheat is 81 bushel, as when wheat is
$3.50 a bushel. Eggs may be II cents q
dozen or 80 centssa dozen-it makes no
difference in the units Of energy man
uses in a productive days work.
One would think that the real basis
Of. value would be the cost of trans
muting human energy into articles of
trade and commerce. But no; that
most honest Of all human activities is
made subject to the speculative shreWd-
ness Of men who can produce false
shortages Of food and other commodi-.
ties, and thus excite anxiety Of demand
in society.
It is not in industry that the trouble,
lies, but in those regions beyond, where
men lie in wait to seize the fruits OF
industry and create faMe seircities for
the sake of arousing ananxious demand
for things which, normally. are and
ought to be accessible to all who en-
gage ip daily productive pursuits.
We must begin with the land; we
must continue with the days labor !;
and we must keep so close, so jealous
~ close to both these fundamentals that
we shall be suspicious and fearful Of
all that robs the land Of men, and robs
labor Of its primal Importance in ma
terial life.
We shall think out, and try out, and
establish more enduring economic sys-
TENS as we go on about our work, than
we shall ever be able to do sitting idle
with our heads in our hands trying to
'think" a new world system out of our
brains.
The days work is the hub around
which the whole wheel Of earth-life
swings. It must be kept central, both
in our thinking and our action. Any
system that stunts the days work off
to one side as unimportant, is riding
to fall.

the cry and paused moment, then,
not dreaming of the tragedy being en-
acted within the cottage, resumed their
conversation. Down to his knees went
the brave old man, and Scarface, free

brought it down with deadly force
on his victims head. A last agonized
cry escaped him-then he fell, and
Scarface, selling the key, rushed to the
chest.
Dick heard that last cry and did not
mistake its sinister import. Rushing
to the cottage, he dashed into the
room. He saw the old man on the
floor and Scarface, and before the
latter could use his pistol, hurled him
self on him. 1t was terrific fight,

scream from Polly caused him for

And that Dick Van Brunt, impul

love with Polly since the beginning,
no one who had ever seen her would
doubt. There was that about her
which made men turn their heads as
she passed, a lightness of step, an
airy swing, tilt of the head that
marked her for the thoroughbred that
she was and made her linger In their
minds long after she had passed the
range Of their vision. Seeing her and
Dick together, the most casual OBJ

NobIer Americanism,
Plea of Secretary Lane

Washington, Nov, 27-Secretary
Lane at Thanksgiving day service
here spoke for a pledge to Ameri-
canism and counselled taking "the
American way at each new turn of
the road"
"We are in a time of depression,
of reaction from exaltation of war
time" said Mr.. Lane. Now the
smaller man who is inside each one
of us has come to the fore, the ego
tistic, self-seeking side, while then
and there we drown out the larger,
nobler man who always walks with
US, but is too seldom challenged to
appear.
This would be true thanks
giving day if it could be a day of
pledge to the stronger, prouder
things in us which we call our
Americanisn. As Edward Everett
Hale used to pray, teach us to know
that we are sons of the living God
