LESSON OF CHRISTMAS DAY
Example of Christ Should Inspire Un-
seIfishnessrand Make Us Try to
Remedy Faults.

Christmas should inspire world of
unselfishness. The example before us
is almost too perfect, for it rather
frightens US to attempt such divine
heights of self-abnegation, but we can
try. 1t will at least take us from the
depths of selfishness, where most of us
now are. Each Christmas day should
teach us something of the lesson Of
the Holy Child's life.
If we could learn from Christmas.
today and in the succeeding years the
serious lessons Of self-betterment and
ennoblement it has to offer, how in
finitely better it would be than just
to look on it as holiday for gifts and
feasts, for extravaganza and Foolish
ness.
So take an hour or two off on
Christmas day and give 1t up to retro
spective and self-inspectien. You win
each find faults, If You judge yourself
impartially, for no one is perfect. Then
make serious determination to try
to overcome those faults, for only try
ing to improve is there any growth in
character. II You are satisfied with
yourself you stay just as you are with
all your faults and virtues But II
you try hard to remedy the faults your
character is constantly growing broad
err. This is the lesson which Christ

A CHRISTMAS WALK

| In silvery softress the anthem closed
| Like a slowly siienced bell;'
| The sacred calm of a peace divine
| Like benedction fell
And out on the morning light that spread
A glimmer Of amber gray,
l walked with Margery home from church
On old, old Christmas Day.
bland, mild day-for the rugged month
Had chosen a kindly mood
Like wonderful mellow aftermath
From the Autumn's plenitude.
With scarcely a tang of wholesome cold
Did the Winters breezes blow,
AS Margery walked from church with me
On Christmas long ago.
The earnest words that had touched our
The warnings kindly and wise
Had left shadow of tenderness
In Margery's violet eyes;
The merry, hoydenish maid I'd known
For a twelvemonth's flying space,
Had taken on that old Christmas Day,
new and womanly grace.
AS through the tremulous opal clouds
That shifted and swayed apart,
A sun ray lighted the rosy face,
The wish was born in my heart
That down the trail of the unspent years.
Whatever their trend might be,
The soft-eyed maiden beside me them
Might walk to the end with me.
watching the velvet fakes
By the white gale set awning,
| breathe the spirit of other years
While the bells of Yuletide ring;
And near me, smiling with happy eyes
At our children's romping play,
Is the girl who walked from church with
On that old, sweet Christmas Day.

Alley Prowler Frightens Folks.

Complaint is made of an old man
who is said to have been seen in sew
eral parts of town recently, prowling
around alleys after dark and brighten
ing women and children. A watch is
to be kept for him and arrangements
have been made to have officers
notified if he makes another appear
ance. No one seems to know who the
old man is or what he is after, but
an investigation is to be made.

to his room, but it was of no avail.
There was vast chattering and jol-
lily as after breakfast next morning
there was an adjournment to the sit
ting room. The master of cere-
monies, Bascom's eyes twinkled as
one after another the stockings were
apportioned, for he was q practical
joker. Willis noted that his stocking
was bullying and heavy. He peer
ed within it, then showed a lump OF
coal and raw potato.
Somehow his heart was chilled.
Trivial as was the incident, 1t came
like direct blow in the face. Was
the erratic donation slurring re-
minder of his poverty? ALI at once
the barrenness Of his lonely life over
came him in full force. He went up
to his room glOomfly.
A servant knocked at the door and
handed him a letter. Mechanically he
opened it and then sprang to his feet,
white to the lips and quivering all
over. He stood like one in maze.
There was second timid summons
at the door. Willis opened it to face
Miss Deane, parcel in her hand.
"Will you please step into the hall"
she futtered, and he thought how
lovely she looked in her fresh, dainty
dress.

Where Our Sugar Went.

100000 100000 pounds Of sugar
were exported from the United States
during the first ten months of 1919.
This is an increase of 339 per cent
over any previous year in the history
of the country and no doubt is the real
reason for the universal shortage of
sugar.

We find that the Minidoka project

10 banks with deposits of $4,000,000,

We have in the way of manufactur-

3 cheese factories, 3 flour mills,
brick yard, potato flour factory, 2

"AINT 1T THE TRUTH"

Too many evangelists depend upon
sensationalism to draw crowds to the
revival meetings and then pass the
hat around. There are certain brands
of religion that are commercialied
to such an extent as to lose practic-
ally all the religious flavor that they
may at one time have possessed.
More religion is to be found in a
good deed than in volumes of vilifica-
ton issued from the mouths of ''evan-
gelistic' spell rs.-Grangeville
Free Press.
The Star Mirror congratulates the
Methodists of Moscow upon the as
surance of receiving $4,000 from the
centenary fund, for church extension
work here. This means that the
great building program by which the
church hopes to enlarge it's buildings,
have big Sunday school auditorium,
and rest room for country people
while in town, is to be carried out
This is a case of casting bread upon

church gave literally to the centenary
fund and will be among the first
churches to receive the benefits of
this fund.
