iNN0nAS.
W&en we were very small we
got the idea thar the reason for
Christmas was that we might
hang up our stockings and give
Santa Claus a chance to fill them
and also that we might have a
great feast of turkey, cranberry
sauce, pumpkin pie and cake, and
to be perfectly candid we have
not entirely outgrown that idea
yet. Gradually as the years rolled
on we awoke to the fact that
Santa Claus was pleasing myth
and our reasons for Christmas
were connected with other pleas
ures and diversions of various
kinds. But it was much later in
life when our religious convictions
began to show signs of abnormal
saevel"ameut that we finally under
stood the real reason for Chsist-
mas.
Nearly nineteen hundred years
ago man wandered thru the hills
of Judea teaching a strange and
marvellous doctrine. But very few
if any of the people who heard
him understood the doctrines
which he taught but they did un-
derstand that he seemed to have
some new knowledge which gave
him miraculous powers. 1t is
doubtful whether any of the peo-
pie of that or any later age fully
understood his teachings, but his
works and the works of his dis
ciples who taught after him were
so great that the name of Jesus of
Nazareth is indelibly stamped up
on the worlds history and that IS
the reason why we have and will
continue to have Christmas thru
all the ages yet to come.

Correspondents Object
To Greek Censorship
(Dy Associated Press)

ATHENS, Nov. 25.-Foreign news
paper correspondents went before De
METROS Gounaris minister Of war, and
George Rhallis, premier. today, and
complained the press censorship es'
tablished during the Venizelos regime
was being continued. They declared
that their dispatches were being de-
!ayed or absolutely suppressed.
The officials answered that during
fusillades on Wednesday and Thurs
day of last week bullets cut and in
jured eighteen overhead wire systems
and that this was responsible for any
delays that have occurred.
They declared that if the censorship
was still in operation,I it was due to
the fact that some correspondents had
misrepresented last weeks demonstra-
lions by saying they we're in favor OF
the former German emperor. This
was declared to be untrue. The two
ministers, however, promised to re-
move all censorship restrictions. Some
CORE spondents have eft Athens and
others intend to take the same course
if conditions do not improve.

brothers of ex-King Constantine OF

GAME LAWS SUBJECT
TO LESS VIOLATION

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Nov. Is
Game wardens of the state depart
ment of conservation report finding
far less skunks and other small fur
hearers penned up this year than u.s.
ual prior to the open season, evidence
that there is better understanding
of the law against keeping fur-bearing
animals in captivity in this state. In
the past it was frequently the custom
for persons to catch these animals in
the fall and closed season and hold
them until early winter, when the fur
is prime.
Indiana game laws prohibit the
taking OF fur-t carers in closed or pro-
tected seasons. 1t is lawful to catch
skunks and other fur-bearers in the
open season, but if it is planned to
hold them for propagating purposes, it
is necessary at the start Of the closed
