splashes of Christmas red added the finishing touch.
 The program was opened by w. H. Thomson, vice president of the Phoe- nix National bank, who introduced two jolly Santa Clauses, who distributed Christmas gift checks from the banks to the employees. The total amount Of the checks was more than S3700, and was divided among 75 employees. r. l.. Thomas, cashier of the Phoenix Ma uonal bank. and c. w. Gibson. secre- tary- treasurer of the Phoenix Savings bank, filled the role of Santa Claus.
 Other clever features of the program were a comedy sketch by Victor $.

ID REMIND JUDGE HE
 HAS FRIENDS HERE

The Missouri friends in Phoenix are preparing to remind Judge D. P. Dyer of St. Louis that he has friends and many of them here and going to send him remembrances on Christmas, a shower of them. They urge all other former residents of that state who met Judge Dyer while he was holding federal court here a year ago to do likewise. The address of the venerable jurist is No. Taylor avenue, St. Louis
 It was expected that Judge Dyer would return to Phoenix this winter, and he may do so later, but about the time he was ready to start he was called to Hannibal to hold court.
