FOR THEIR CHRISTMAS PARTY
Appropriate Decorations Add to the
Zest and Gayety Of tho YuIetide
Festivities.

XII VIZ SANTA CLAUS is to be
. u present at the Christmas par
NN'IS ty- Supper-and of course he
$&lS4.S should be invited-he may
appear in an automobile,
but in order to be quite orthodox he
should be driving his eight reindeer
through the snow; and therefore the
hostess should use a strip of snowy
cotton wool plentifully sprinkled with
frost for the table center. Purchase
somewhat large Santa Claus; he
will be most effective dressed in a
brown cloak with scarlet hood and
cap. A fancy basket in the form Of
a wheelbarrow or chariot will answer
the purpose for his sleigh, and should
be loaded with presents of all kinds.
The reindeer which can be filled with
sweets, may be harnessed to the sleigh
with scarlet ribbons on which have
been sewn a number Of tiny bells.
At intervals down the table place
boxes of bOnbOns in the form of Yule
logs, with garlands of berried holly
and mistletOe arranged from log to
log, the menus to be in banner form,
each one being held by a miniature
Father Christmas.
A Cinderella scheme for the supper
table is pretty. For the center pur-
chase from your florist the wire frame
of a coach. Cover 1t thinly with moss,
binding it on with hemp; then cover
h with scarlet geraAiums, attaching
the blossoms to the coach with fine
silver wire; harness two milk-white
toy horses to it with ribbons to match
the geraniums. A smart little coach
man and footman must be placed on
their respective places, and doll to
represent Cinderella dressed for the
ball should be sitting inside.
Appropriate presents to be placed
for the children would consist Of O.
slipper filed with sweeties for each
little boy, and doll dressed as
fairy in white gauze spotted with sill
yer stars, holding tiny wand, would
delight the heart Of each little girl.

Congressman Knuts0n
FavOrs immigration
Minnesota Representative Declares
Undesirables Flock to
United States

Washington Undesirables from
Southern Europe are arriving in the
United States in such numbers that
they are proving a menace to the
country, Representative Knutson Of
Minnesota, a Republican member of
the House immigration committee,
declared Tuesday on his return from
Ellis Island, N. Y, where with other
members of the committee, he made
an investigation into conditions.
The Minnesota representa- e
charged that various agencies, either
governmental or private in South
Europe countries, were facilitating
the movement to the United States of
radicals and undesirables.
Urging ban on all immigration
for two years, Representative Knut-
son said, rigid legislation must be
enacted at the coming session of
Congress to keep out all aliens ex-
cept possibly blood relatives of per-
sons already naturlized who are able
to pass high ratification test"
Mr.. Knutson recently spent three
months in Europe studying the situa-
ton and he declared that immigrants
would continue to flock from South
Europe in even greater numbers.
Representative Wilson, Democrat
of Louisiana, who accompanied Mr..
knutson to Ellis Island, said addi-
tional officials, buildings and facili-
ties were needed at Ellis Island to in
sure more careful inspection of ar
rivals.
While the house immigration sub
committee was in New York 1900
male. Spaniards arrived on one ship.
This, immigration officials told the
committee members was unpreced-
ented.

DECEMBER 5, ST. Mck,s DAY


AEN~1N THE strict order Of things
I'm children should have hung
NIIXs up their stockings for Santa
MW Claus on Dec. o, and gre-
toiced in his gifts. For II
was the feast Of st. Nicholas, alias
Santa Claus. He has nothing what
ever to do with Christmas, and his
visit then Il an Anglo-Saxon anach-
ronism, which came from America
fifty years ago. AS their patron saint,
children were taught to look to Mich
olas for care and protection. To show
the reality Of his love for boys and
girls, parents related that on his eve
he went up and down the earth re-
warding the good with presents, as he
had in his life secretly thrown purses
Of gold into the rooms Of poor maid
ems through the. window. Children
were taught to hang up their stock
ings which parents acting as the
saints deputies filed with sweets.
apples, nuts and toys. In England tho
custom was abolished with the wor-
ship Of saints at the Reformation,
and was re-established in the Ameri-
can guise Of Father Christmas in the
middle Of last century.
But in Holland Santa Claus makes
his visit on the right day. Dec. s. In
stead Of stockings, the Dutch children
place their shoes, with straw in them
for the donkey on which Nicholas
rides, in front of the fireplace. In
the morning good children find pres
ents there, but the shoes of the
naughty contain only a birch. The
custom is the same in France. In
southern Austria, young man, ar
rayed as st. Nicholas, in episcopal
robes, visits each house and examines
the children in their catechism. To
those who answer we'll the saints at
tendant angels give fruit and sweets,
while demons are admitted to terror
lie the careless. On going to bed the
children place baskets or dishes on
the window sill for his future gifts.
Catholic Germany furnishes the transit
ton, between the origin Of Nicholas
and modern Santa Claus. Arrayed as
Father Christmas, he visits each home
and questions the children as to their
past conduct. For the good there are
cakes and fruit, and for all a lecture.
He then asks what presents they
would like the Christ-child to bring at

BE SURE GIFTS WILL PLEASE

I ,yTGN WOMAN tells in recently
kS\s$X& published magazines how
SSSdEs she has a "pillow Christ
M mas" for the benefit of her
many friends She con-
suited the piece bag, and from it drew
forth the materials for making any
quantity of dainty sofa pillows, all des-
tined for different friends. The cost
of the materials was chiefly that. spent
for silk cords, for embroidery silk and
for filling for the completed pillows.
Nearly all the pillows were made by
COUGHING figures cut from contrasting
materials on chosen background,
and the result was completed. The
very same idea might also be carried
into effect by the girl who loves to
make dainty stocks. There never was
time when the, prevailing styles Of
fered such a dainty array of collars,
and box of assorted colors and kinds
would be welcomed by any girl friend.
There might be found in the piece
bag all sorts of bits of silk and rib
bon which could be fashioned into the
daintiest Of dressy stocks, as well as
bits of lawn and percale which would
do nicely for stocks for every day
wear with cotton shirt waists. The
gift of box of stocks might be made
valuable if the box itself was a thing
Of beauty, and this could be brought
to pass by the girl who is expert with
her needle. Giving the same sort of
gift to large number Of people Is
perfectly proper If the gift is one which
Is calculated to please everybody.
We've heard the story Of nice old
lady who always made pin-cushions
for all her nieces and mittens for all
her nephews every year. 1t was said
that her plan gave great pleasure to

ated before you 60 into the wholesale

this habit of bestowing gifts in secret
and under the cloak Of night arose the
practice of putting out shoes or stock

family, so that the good saint would
be able to fill them without being spied

for young women pupils in converts
on the even of Saint Nicholas to hang
their new silk stockings on the door
of the apartment of the abbess. They
would also write notes calling the
attention of the good st. Nicholas
to their stockings. In the morning
