Not Idle Around Deary

Deary Press: According to the
Moscow correspondent to the
Spokesman-Review there are more
idle men IN Moscow at present than
there were at the beginning of the
war. The item says that men who
scorned S. a day last summer are
now glad to work for So to So day
and are not particular about hours.
There doesn't seem to be any idle
men in this section. Men were be-
ing sought here few davs ago to
work On the roads IN the Highway
District 4, but none could be found.
1t is probably around the cities
that unemployment is noticeble.

Union Christmas Program

On Christina Eve, the people of
Kendrick and vicinity gathered in
the Methodist Chrch to enjoy pro-
gram of Yuletlde numbers which
were presented as the combined eff
fort of the churches of the town.
The spacious auditorium of the
church was filled to the last seat
and many were compelled to sit in
chairs placed IN the aisles of the
ullding.
The pastors of the two churches,
the Reverends Mort and Hood, act
ed as masters of ceremony and con-
Quoted the program with much
credit to themselves and their sup
porting members.
A choir under the direction of the
Reverend Mort rendered special
music during the evening and were
assisted by the congregation in the
singing of fine old hymns appro-
pirate for the Christmas Season.
Music was really the theme of the
evening and the numbers given by
the various girls classes of the Sun
day schools should not remain un-
mentioned IN referring to musical
numbers.
Tiny tots of four years up to the
4 growing-ups of forteen or fifteen
added to the variety of the selec-
tions by their maiden efforts on the
raised dias. One group actually
showed their elders how to trim a
virgin young tree with things that
are usually forgotten in the rush to
make the ordlpary Christmas tree
a snowy affair.

Bakery Now Installed

The Electric Bakery has finished
its removal to their new quarters
in the Kendrick Hotel building and
are putting on the finishing touches
IN minor improvements and con-
venlences. The old dining room
OF the hotel has been virtually re-
modelled to accommodate the show
cases and other paraphernalia for
the sale Of baked goods and con-
fections.
A new lunch counter and back bar
has been put in place and the pro-
prietors are ready to serve dinners
or lunches at any time or IN any
style. Several white tables have
been given ample space on one side
of the room for accommodation of
those who are averse to perching
themselves on the high stool.
An electric coffee urn occupies
one end of the back-bar, thus lnsnr.
ing hot coffee of the aromatic kind
at an instant's notice. In the near
future, the owners intend to in
stall an electrically operated
grlddle to make the serving of short
orders minute of pleasure instead
of half hours work.
The oven has been installed in
the room at the rear of the hotel
building and is a model of con
venience and cleanliness. From
time to time the management will
make other improvements which
will add to the convenience of thell
| trade as we'll as themselves.

American Ridge Social

The Christmas social held at the
American Ridge school house last
Saturday evening was a marked
success and the crowd that enjoyed
the evenings entertainment telt it
we'll worth their while.
Early in the evening a program
was given by the school children,
drilled by their teacher, Mrs. Wal
ter Taylor. Some of the boys dress
ed as darkies and the girls in a
holly drill and others with their
dolls, made fine program of var
lety and interest.
Following the program, baskets,
cakes and pies were auctioned off
and during the evening, candy,
sandwiches and coffee were sold to
accompany the refreshments. Every
one had fire time and enjoyed
everything from the program to
the "eats." The financial results
of the evening amounted to $67 "a,
besides a clothes basket of farm
produce donated by the different
members of the ridge and which
was presented to the pastor and
his wife most substantial gift
that should keep the proverblal
wolf from the front portals for
some little time to come.
The success OF the affair only goes
to prove that more numerous en-
tertainments of this nature through
the winter months would aid in re-
tanning the feeling OF fine fellow,
ship and neighborly interest thru
out the ridge.

Stop! Thief!

Some contemplate sneak thief
seems to find rich operating field
in Kendrick and has declared his in
tentlons of career of crime by
making petty depredations upon the
households OF our community.
Last week, while both Mr.. and
Mrs. McCrea were busy in their
store with the Christmas trade, the
cellar at their home was entered
and quantity of canned fruits and
vegetables was removed. Removed
under the proper auspices is not
considered unfair in this state but
the most prominent fact of this par
ticular case is that the formality of
obtaining permission from the
rightful owners was not observed.
Mr.. McCrea now has the sanguin-
ary eye and is installing larg bear
trap and two theif-shooting shot
guns at the entrance to his winter
cashe. We are of the oplnlon that
any misguided son of Shem who at
tempts to lay covetous hands on
toothsome viands in that locality in
future time will have his clock
stopped IN such manner that even
Seth Thomas himself won't be able
to start it again.

Samson

And Samson came down from the
mount on the twenty sixth day of
the twelfth month, which is Deem
ber.
Samson's voice was sweet like
that Of the bird and his raiment was
resplendent and glorious and gor-
geous, even vari-coIored as Joseph's
coat-although the cut and style of
it caused no envy in the heart of mis-
fellow-man as it is writ of Joseph's.
Evenso, his raiment was rich like
that of Joseph, after his most pleas
ant >sojourn amongst the hosts of
Pharaoh. Verify, the coat, alone,
was very good to look upon.
And, after the power of his voice
was made known to his host of list
eners, he exhorted them, one and
all, in divers ways, saying in this
wise unto them, who is there a.
mong you that is not more sinful
than /, whom consider to be with
out sin? Is it not writ and fully
apparent that it is sinful to look
upon the screen when the light flick
ereth thereon and illusive and fleet
ing pictures appeareth before the
eye? What manner Of men are ye
that take into your mouths vile
material and Whit noxlous vapors
upon which the soul may not feast?
Further more, take not unto your
selves binding obligations IN sects
or orders which dispense bits of
heaven here on earth and bring to-
gether enemies at the graveside;
but remain ye non-conversant with
these things even as | am. For,
verify | say unto you, to associate
thus viclously with these things
that are the Vaccinations of the
Devil, Will entitle thee most surely
to ring-side seat in the great,
overwhelming, soul-searing and fin
al display of birthstone and pyro-
technics in the arena of the neither
world. Ye know not but l have
special insight IN these things
whereof l speak, for have not said
so?
And, upon uttering these strange
sayings to the gapeing populace anc
benighted heather therein assembl
ed, he stretched forth the arm Of
his mighty strength and pulled
down the Pillars of the Church
about his ears in such a manner a:
to cause mis- own destruction, spirit
ual and otherwise, in the place
wherein he stood and the good of il
was not at all.
And it was on the twenty-sixtf
day of the twelfth month, which
> is December.

Main street. The trees have not
been trimmed up for long time
and were badly in need of atten-
