, MERRY CHRISTMAS To AL

One week from today is Christmas,
day when every child in the com
munity should be remembered. and
every family that may be in need,
should be looked after, The people
of this community have been blessed
with an unusual amount Of prosper
ity. Yet in every community there
are some who from causes perhaps
unavoidable, are in destitute cir
cumstanees. These unfortunate ones
should not be overlooked if any
there be among us. This matter has
usually been taken up and cared for
by the churches of the City. and
perhaps will be this year but gen
tie reminder will not be out of place
at least.

SNAKE RIVER FROZEN OVER

The extreme cold weather during

river over for the first time in many
years. We are informed by Mr. Ed.
Wilcox that the ice is sufficiently
thick at his place 10 cross with a
team. He also stated that the river
has also raised at least four feet
due TO an ice jam some place below.
Should the weather turn suddenly
warm the bridges along both the

Patriotism, and Profits.

American patriotism has given
way to greed. Richard Spillane
writes in Commerce and finance
that practices and profits that
would have brought persons to the
mn Uf puonc UpTnron not iong back
are common to-day" Much room
millionaires are common in larger
places, and in this place those who
counted their ordinary gains by the
hundreds think now of the thous
ands.
Swindling has become science
according to Spillane, who indicts
the stock markets and the retailers.
"Cotton goods, woolen goods, boots
shoes, hats, clothes and furnishings
of every kind for the person or the
home are handled from the produc'
er through all the grades down to
the consumer with additions in price
and profits beyond any in trade an
nails" Candor compels us to state
that the structures of Mr.. Spillane
are applicable in our midst, just as
forclbIy as in New York
A Wall street financing scheme
boasted that concern made $780,
900 additional profits last year on
s7oo 900 additional business. A
manufacturer is cited who saw an
article that he manufactured and
sold at $6 being sold over the coun-
ters of Fifth Avenue for $50. Where

instead of inspiring him. she filled
him with her own distrust But in
all justice. let us remember that her
intentions We're good and can in no
way be indicted as guilty; she be
lieved firmly that she was in the
right. never doubted of the excel

that all she did was done in the best
interests of her husband, his eoun-

The Czarina is one of those per
sonalities which from time to time
have appeared in history. Their
power is inexplicable; we are for
ever asking ourselves whence comes
their force. Perhaps Alexandra
really loved her husband, she GER
tainly adOred her son, but her atti-
tude to the world was perpetually
distrustful. strangely empty of ten
derness, and, in a way, hostile.
