CHRISTMAS BAG FOR GUESTS
Container for Presents Attached to
Backs Of Chairs With Bow Of
Red Satin Ribbon.

TINE Christmas bag is an innova-
L ton planned by one housekeeper.
The breakfast table is to be decorated
with a mirror in the center, outlined
as a star by holly sprigs, and with a
slender cut glass vase in the center
holding red chrysanthemums. Long
stemmed flowers also radiate from the
central star with the blossoms toward
the plates of those for whom the
flowers r intended. Every napkin
lies beneath a Christmas card with a
sprig of holly tied upon 1t with red
ribbon, and to the back of every chair
is tied a bag with a big red satin bow.
The bags are of all sizes, and each
is full of individual gifts. One is an
opera bag, another a shopping bag
in black and gold, still another is
brown leather and gold nailheads, an
other a bag for collars and cuffs, an
other a gay laundry bag, one is sug-
gestive of the scraps grandmother will
put into it, and the other of books
that a small girl will carry to school.
All are as dainty and fine as careful
workmanship and good materials can
make them, and there will be fun
emptying the materials out of the va
riOus bags. ~

Christmas is the decoration day of
a commercial age. Then, rs on no
other day, we face with compassion
those who have fallen in our battles
for wealth. For a moment we think
of the thousands of children who have
no share in that easy life we give Il
children. and must find the seasons
joy in the charity dinner. Along with
the barter to which we have debaScd
our giving within our circle of ac-
Quaintances, we play at extending the
spirit of the day to those who are
the pawns of our industrial game. The
Salvation army lass, standing cold and
numb on the street corner, collecting
funds for Christmas baskets for the
poor, reminds us of the wreckage left
in the wake of our prosperity. We
give a trife to help the poor temper
the bitterness of the year with a
couple of hours good eating.

The Heart Of Christmas

Christmas is not a day, it Is a mood.
1t is Independent of days. We cele-
brate it on Friday, Saturday, Sunday
any day of the week. Christmas Is
Indifferent 10 days. 1t has nothing to
do with the almanac. 1t has nothing
to do with place. 1t Is as Independent
of geography as it is of chronology. 1t
has no relation to human government,
or even to race or blood. 1t is an
institution which can be set up on any
soil and under the folds of any flag.
Christmas is a spiritual creation, and
belongs to tie kingdom of the heart.
1t is constructed by angels of the heart
of a child. If it then be a mood, 1t
can be extended over q week, a month,
a year, a lifetime. 1t can be built upon
time, upon eternity. If you confine it
TO a day, you miss the meaning of it.
If you try to cram it into twenty-four
hours, you crush it and lose the es-
of it.

GIFTS" CHRISTMAS
PROGRAMS FOR DESTITUTE
Legend of Cathay Programs Being
Promoted by Children to Raise
Funds for Near East Relief.

With white gifts" in assortments
as varied and wierd as any that myth
could contrive for the legendary King
of Cathav, Americas children of the
"far west" will held to save and cheer
the destitute and suffering orphans Of
the famine-gripped Near East at
Christmas time.
Throughout the Pacific Northwest,
white gifts" Christmas programs are
being promoted for the children this
year in a somewhat general effort to
restore the spirit of unselfish giving
for the needy to the celebration of
Christmas, which has come to be
ooked upon more and more as a season
of receiving, according to Near East
Relief officials.
''The white gifts Christmas idea is
adapted from the Legend of Cathav,
which tells how the people of that
land kept the birthday of their king by
bringing him white gifts to prove
their love and loyalty says Dir. Sher-
man l.. Divine Of Spokane, northwest
general chairman for the Near East
Relief Committee. "Some brought eX-
pensive white furs. white silks, white
chargers and other costly gifts, while
others brought only handfuls of rice,
a white dove. rabbit or lamb, but new
er did the king, so the legend relates,
regard II gift above another. so long
as an We're white, showing hat they
we've without the stain Of S~elfishness.
an keeping with that same spirit
the children participating in the
white gifts programs at this coming
Christmas time may be taught to
bring gifts for the poor. Because of
the long distance to the Near East, it
would Of course be impracticable TO
bring Gifts for the thousands of wom-
en- and little children over there who
are homeless and without food or
shelter, but cash contributions and
pledges equivalent to the value of such
white gifts as were bestowed upon
Cathav's king can he brought and
turned over to the Near East Relief
with which to buy food and clothes for
the sufferers of Armenia and other
Bible lands"

TOY TREE TABLE DECORATION
Miniature Christmas Emblem May Be
Surrounded With Presents Tied
With Red Ribbon.

6H!~ ECORATE the table with a
,&1D Christmas tree, one of the
toy ones, and pile around its
3NJSHH foot a quantity of presents
tied with red ribbons.
These should be only what a college
man would call "grinds"-perhaps a
tiny tin piano for a would-be perform
.er, a lantern for the one the points of
jokes are difficult to see, a
placid paper golf bag for the enthusi-
astic player, and SO on, each with a
rhyme or quotation, says Harper's
Bazaar. If one considers a goose a
somewhat u~ndignified bird, ducks may
be exchanged for it, either the domes-
tic fowl or the more expensive nvas
back or redhead. Fried celery is very
good with duck, the crispest pieces
dropped in batter and Their cooked in
deep fat. But the apple sauce GRO
quettes should not be omitted even
with this. For this informal dinner
there is a very good and innocuous
drink to serve with the heavy course
sweet cider, spiced and sugared to
taste, cooked ten minutes and served
hot.

YULETIDE THORN TREE SAVED
Blooming Glastonbury, Subject Of
Beautiful Legends of Christmas,
Was Doomed to Destruction.

NNE of the most beautiful legends
" of Christmas is that of the Glas-
tonbury thorn. The thorn tree grew
at Glastonbury Abbey, in Somerset
shire, and was supposed to have de-
veloped from the staff Of Joseph Of
Arimathea. According to the legend,
Joseph came to Glastonbury and while
he was resting on a hill, afterward
known as Weary All hill, he stuck his
staff in the earth. The staff immedi-
ately grew green and budded, and at
Christmas time it blossomed into
beautiful flowers.
One chrOnicler states that during
Queen Elizabeth's reign the thorn had
a double trunk, but that a somewhat
bigoted Puritan, who disliked the tree
because to his mind it Smacked OF
popery. started to cut it down, and
succeeded in demolishing one of the
trunks. A miracle rescued the re-
naming trunk of the tree by causing
Il chip of wood to fly up and hit the
Puritan in the eye, while at the same
time he slipped and cut his leg.
Later the tree was grubbed up. but
a number of smaller trees raised from
slips of the original are said to be
owned by persons in the n%eighbor-
hood.

MARSHAL F0CH PAYS
TRIBUTE TO CHILDREN

Marshal Foch, the hero of France,
has paid a loving tribute to the chill
dren of America in a letter to the
Junior Red Cross. A similar tribute
by his wife, who was busy throughout
the war aiding the children of France,
accompanied that of her famous hus-
band.
Marshal Foch's letter, penned in a
hand which spells force and charac-
ter in every line, reads:
"My Dear Children: l am very hap
ply to address a few lines to you, to
congratulate you and to thank you
for all the good that you have done.
By your efforts you have done much
to ameliorate national conditions in
France and you have powerfully aided
the children of Europe who have been
exhausted by the war.
keep faithful to this ideal-the
greatness Of doing good with a large
and generous spirit.
with my many thanks, my dear
children, please receive the assurance
of my best sentiments,
"FERDINAND FOCH."
In her letter to the children of
America, Madame Foch writes:
"My Dear Children: | know that you
are members of the Junior Red Cross
and that you render great service to
those who have suffered by war; You
contribute to their well being and you
seek the means to console them.
"The children of France, those of
the devasted regions and those who
have lost their fathers in the war, are
very grateful to their comrades IN
America for all they have done for
them. l, also thank you with all my
heart, knowing as | do what the little
Americans have done for the little
unfortunate French boys and girls,

The baby of the manger, overlooked by the mild

frankincense and myrrh, came to establish a new king
dom-the Kingdom of God.
One other kingdom, He established on this earth to
make glad the hearts of all at this blessed season-The
Children's Kingdom of Christmas.

off from the workaday world swing silently open. At
dawn the little people of the realm begin to troop into it.
Little pattering feet, funny little forms clad in night.

Dumb Animals Remembered.

The nObleSt O~bServanceS of Christ
among all peoples the poor have al

they. too, may have cause for rejoic-

after the eyes have fallen in sleep.
It is a great day, a day of sweet fooGshness, a time
for the barring Of hearts too long screened from the eyes
that long to look into them and see love enthroned.
Make the most of it, the best of it, and all you can OF
it. 1t comes but one a year. Most people find themselves
unable to buy the presents they would like to buy for
Christmas. Some find the season a time of unhappiness
for that very reason. Try not to feel thus. 1t is not the
presents bought or received that makes the day good. 1t
is the love sent and not the money that counts.
The DAY should break down every barrier between
hearts e%stranged and be the starting point for better
relations and new affections-and above all, it should be
the day of the Children's Kingdom.
And whenever Christmas is made the childrens
festival-based on LOVE-His gentle spirit will be in the
