transformations Inauguration of Pres.
ident Wilson. The Offering inau-
gural ball will be reinstated and the
whole affair will be pulled off in
riches and splendor. The Republi-

Christmas

December 25-A momentous day
in the history of the world.
Christ-The Only perfect man that
God or the world has produced.
Christianity-That enobling faith
which keeps civilization alive and
prepares the soul of humanity for
the great beyond.
In every Christian heart that
beats the day will be one of rever-
encc and humility, in thankfulness
that God in His wisdom created a
son whose death should redeem the
world. We said will be-" That is
what it should be; but will it? Will
our Richmond county people sin
cerely regard Christmas in the light
other than an occasion for swap
ping presents?
AS we observe the day, let us hon
or the man whose birth it commem-
crates and the God who created him.
But it let the spirit not end with the
setting of the sun Saturday. Rather
let us carry the lessons through the
coming year, to the end that we may
all be bigger and better men and
women.
And in particular should we in
woke the gentle and forgiving spirit
of Christ in all things we do and
say; it is the least we can do for
so much that has been done for us.

1t is likely that Congress will pass
bill apportioning the membership
of the House to correspond with in
creases in population. The Siegel
bill would make the population
basis for congressional district be-
tween21S 900 and $4,000 instead OF
approximately 211OOO as at present,
Under the measure no state would
sustain a loss in its representation,
and Is states would gain. North Car
DINA would gain two members,
making our total number l. nkre'
sentative twelve.

The general business depression,
and defation movement which has
resulted so disastrously to the farm
or and his products, will likely
cause much cutting and slashing of
salaries with the new year. Many
concerns will be forced to reduce eX-

clerical force and lower wages.

ANOTHER WRESTLING BOUT
STAGED HERE FEB, 10

ocneuuleQ Tor FeDruary lO IS a
wrestling match which promises to be
even more interesting than the one
which was held on January %, when
c. L. Curtis of Bemidji was winner
over Dan Larkin.
Bon Deitz Of Grand Forks has chal-
lenged Curtis to a match, catch as
catch can for the best two out of
three falls. Deitz weighs 154 pounds
and has never been thrown by anyone
Of his own weight. Curtis has been
thrown only once and then by the
worlds welterweight champion, Cat
unr1on. In that match Curtis won
the first fall but lost the match from
over training. Catunnon still holds
the championship p in his class.
Ladies are urged to attend this
match as well as the men for the con-
test will be cleanly managed through:

good clean skill.

old-time recipe, improved by the, ad7

to restore natural color and beauty

A well-known downtown druggist
says everybody uses Wyeth's Sage

it darkens SO naturally and evenly
that nobody can tell it has been Sap-
plied-it's so easy to use, too. You
simply dampen a comb or soft brush
and draw it through your hair, tax
ing one strand at q time. By morn

another application or two, it is re-
stored to its natural color and looks
glossy, soft and beautiful.

ACID IN STOMACH

digestion

A well-known authority states that
stomach trouble and Indigestion are
nearly always due to acidity-acid
stomach-and not, as most folks be-
lieve, from a lack of digestive juices.
He states that an excess of hydro
chloric acid in the stomach retards
digestion and starts food fermenta-
ton, then our meals sour like gar
bage in can, forming acid fluids
and gases which initiate the stomach
like toy balloon. We then get that
heavy, lumpy feeling in the chest,
we eructate sour food, belch gas, or
have heartburn, fatulence, water
brash, or nausea.
He tells US to lay aside all digestive
aids and instead, get from any pharm-
acy four ounces of Jad Salts and
take a tablespoonful in a glass Of
water before breakfast while it is
effervescing, and furthermore, to
continue this for one week. While

It could not ignore the facts which

Lowry, 131 MINI. 100. The trial
court was well within its discretion
in denying the motion. There would
be difficulty in sustaining differ
ent holding.
Quote. Another Law.
ttThe motion to enjoin the sale
is in part based upon G. S. 1918,
Sec. 2127, which requires the county
auditor in June of each year to trans
init to the state auditor list of
lands in his county remaining un-
redeemed. In 1919 this list was not
sent until in July. A failure to COM
ply with the statute does not affect
the sale. The requirement that a
lis be transmitted by the county
auditor hangs over from time when
the state auditor directed the sale,
and gave notice of it, and might con-
duct it. r. L. 1905, Sections 936-
637. Earlier, in 1878, the require
ment was that the list be sent to the
state auditor when required by him.
Amendments, put the statute in the
form Of C. S. 1913, Sections 2127-
2128. The failure to send the list
is not something which the land
owner may use to prevent or defeat
a sale.

Father Luelen Arrives.

Father Lucien had grown very fond
Of hillary. He did not know what to
do. Hilary was In the woods now, and
almost inaccessible. The cure had not
even LATE to wrangle with. His days
passed In detection. Moreover. the
matter Of Ste. Marie bothered him.
Father Lucien had been jeered out Of
the village, and he knew that II the
bishop heard Of 1t he would be trans
ferred to another parish. Father Luz
cief loved st. Boniface, where he had
spent all his life.
He had sent to Quebec for book on
singlesstick exercises, which he had
seen advertised in an old magazine.
He had become interested, and had
fashioned fine singlestick from q
plant hazel bough. Father Lucien
followed the instructions given In the
book with patient care, and with the
best results. He was very thorough
in all that he did. His muscles began
to grow, his physical health became
excellent. Soon he became quite ex-
pert. 1t was a sight to see the cure
practicing lunges in the seelusion of
his study, among the theological vol
umes; but nobody had seen him except
his old housekeeper, and 1t took sew
eral minutes TO convince the old lady
that her revered charge had not gone
suddenly insane.
