CHRISTMAS WEEK IN ENGLAND
Time When Scattered FamiIies Are
United and Tender Memories
Are Revived.

MANY and great are the changes
WI which have occurred in England
since Dickens wrote "a Christmas
Carol" but they have not affected the
national love for the festival and the
determination to preserve unimpaired
the traditional warmth and heartiness
of its celebration. Christmas week is
still the great week of the year for
the English people. 1t is the one week
when scattered families are reunited,
when tender memories and old asso-
Citations are revived, when friend greets
friend with q CHEEKY expansiveness In
striking contrast with the character
istic reserve of the English nature,
so, undemonstrative to those who do
not know it well, apparently so dis
tant and unsympathetic.
From Wednesday all business will
be suspended, Not to be resumed till
Monday morning. The whole nation
will give Itself up to good cheer and
good fellowship, and for brief season,
all strife and controversy are hushed,
and peace, charity and concord reign
supreme.

An Ancient Christmas Dish.

An indispensable Christmas dish of
ancient times was "frumenty" OF
"frumante." Here Is the recipe fOf
making the dish according to a faith.
full old chronicler: take clean wheat
and bray II in mortar until the hulls
be all gone off, and seethe 1t until II
burst, and take 1t up and let it cool ;
and take clean, fresh broth and sweet
milk Of almonds or sweet milk of kline
and temper II all; and take the yolks
of eggs. Boil II little and set II
down and mess II forth with fat veni-
son or fresh mutton" Frumenty was
often served alone without venison or
mutton. When served by itself It was
we'll sweetened.

clearness and has the distinction ot
 never having bee ninvolved in any
 labor troubles. The proprietors ot
 the various printing plants of the city and the members and officers of Pine
 Blff Typographical Union have al ways been friends, and no record of friction between the two bodies is known. Absolute fairness, with en- pha sis on the matter of living up to contracts has been the keynote of the local, and no condition arising be- tween the members of the local and the proprietors has ever disrupted the friendly feeling existing between the two bodies.
 Under the auspices of this local there will be shown at the Orpheo theatre Labor Day. some of the activi- ties of the parent body of the local which will to large extent to dispel from the minds of many that organ ized labor is a destructive force and should be banished from the world "A Durable Disease" a portrayal of the ravages of the White Plague among the members of the typo graphical unions of the country, and woven around an intensely human in terest story, the noble and unselfish wcrk of this big member of organiiz- ed labor is shown. Vividly it draws the contrast between the autocratic attitude of labor as viewed by some people and the real work that organ ized labor does that is seldom ever me ntioned by the enemies of labor.
 The present officers of the local are: w. B. Ward, president; F. H. Gaske, vice president; w. s. Busick secretary treasurer; John w. Stauf- fer, sergeant at arms.
 Following are the members:
 P. H. Beverly, w. s. Busck, H. T. Dial, r. H. Gaske, w. K. Green, J. J. Harrison, George R. Hill, George C. orris, L. H. McClannahan, Joe L. Norton, w. R. Norton, JaJmes L. Norton, Chas. L.

 sents Against Machines

SAVANNAH, Ga, April 12. = James w. Gerard, former American Ambassador to Germany and can didate for the Democratic Presiden- tial nomination, at Jefferson Day banquet here Saturday night, de- clared that the recent Hoover move ment simply represents the protest of the people against party control, but does not constitute a declara- tion that Hoover is the only fit man for the Presidency.
 'I advocated Hoover's nomination by the Democratic party" said Ger ard, but Hoover as a partisan, seeing only the Republican nomina- tion, is another Hoover entirely
 Gerard declared that the majority of the Senate's reservations to the peace treaty were meaningless and merely political buncome.

 The mill will not be large one, but it will be built so that they can add to it as contracts for the de livery of more pulp are made.
 The work of construction will begin as soon as the weather conditions will permit, and will be continued as rapidly as possible until construction shall be completed.
 The Speel River Project is owned by Alaskans and former Alaskans. The officers and directors of the company are E. P.
