BIG DAY IN BALB0A'S LIFE
Great Spanish Explorer First Sighted
the Pacific Ocean on September
25, 1913.

On Sept. %, 1913, Vasco Nunez de
Balboa had his first peep at the blue
expanse of the Pacific ocean, remarks
the Los Angeles Times. 1t was gained
from the top of the mountain range at
the isthmus of Darien. Four days
later, on the Goth, he reached the
slOpes himself and stood waist deep
in the waters. He called it the Great
South sen and he took formal posses
sion in the name of the king Of Spain,
after the manner Of the old-time eX-
plorerS. That was the big day IN
Balboa's life. He came to the New
World as q stOwaway and he attained
the title of admiral of the Pacific ana
governor of Panama. Yet four years
later he was executed in the pubic
square ut Acla on trumped-up charge
of treason. Balboa was an adventurer
with the passions of the gambler the
drunkard and the spendthrift; yet as
he gathered power and authority he
Indicated prudence, Judgment and fore
sight. Tie was regular scout and now
California has a delightful beach and

week in September balboa week In

to the possession Of the Pacific four

Make Every Day a Christmas

Too prone are we all to allow our
Christmas sentiments to evaporate
with the day. forgetting that there
are other days in tie year for SYM
pathetic hand clasp and an encourag-
ing word. If Christmas Is better than
other days In the year, it is because
the feeling Of brotherhood and fellow
ship belongs to it.
Why not have every other day in
the year filled with brotherliness and
fellowship? Why not soften the as
perities Of life, speak the kindly word,
and extend the helping hand for the
other 364 days? In a word, why not
make every day Christmas? Carry
the Christmas spirit with us through
ont the year and say. with Tiny Tim,
at all times and seasons, God bless
us, everyone"
Let us keep Christmas in this spirit,
then, forgetting not to whom thanks
for the many blessings and privileges
Of this great country of ours are due,
looking forward to the age that is
coming:
"When the common sense of most
shall hold the fretful realm in awe
And the kindly earth shall slumber
lapt i'm universal law"

Woman Led to See Beauties Of chrIs-
tIanity Through Advice Given
by 6rahmin Theosophist.

How a woman was converted to
Christianity by a Brahmin is told in
the Boston Herald by Miss Lillian Free
man Clarke.
Celia ThaXter, the poetess, was an
earnest student of strange and mys-
tical teachings. At one time she was
much dominated by the teachings of
John Weiss, and she did not appreci-
ate the beauty and power Of the Bible.
She saw good deal of Hindu
theosOpliist named Mohini, and under
his guidance came to regard herself
as theosOphist.
One day she said to her friend, Mary
Parkman, "Did ] speak contemptu-
Ously of such person? ] ought not
to. for one Of the principles of the
osophy Is to feel no contempt for Gny
human being"
Mics Parkman replied: "But did
not Jesus teach that? Is II not all In
the Sermon on the MOunt?"
BY and by Mohini himself happened
to get hold of a copy of the New Tes-
anu was piiSNu sihu
impressed by the beauty Of its con-
tents. He spoke Of 1t to Mrs. ThaXter,
and found TO his amazement that she
knew nothing about the New Testa-
ment.
"What!' he said. "YOu do not read
your own religious books? / never
heard anything more beautiful than
this"
Mrs. Thaxter forthwith began to
read the New Testament and became
so much interested in 1t that she went
about with copy in her pocket;
whenever she had chance she would
read it. From that time she began to
attend Phillips Brooks church. She
was converted to Christianity by
Brahmin theosophist!

FUN IN PLAYING OLD CHRIS
in lmpersonating Blustery,
Present-laden Santa.

SSNl/Y1 HERE is great fun In imper-
.SNg u sonation and none more than
SN%ILLG in taking the part of that.
S&lS4f.9 prince of good fellows, jolly
old Kris. Several little
brothers, sisters or cousins should
make up the audience to be amused
all Of them young enough to believe
implicitly in the whole story of the
journey in reindeer sleigh from the
North Pole toy country to ones own
particular chimney. Parents and 9TH
er big folks must, Of course, be in the
scheme and coached to play an ac-
tive part.
You will be missed from the COM
pany, to be sure, and dad and mother
should search the house and look up
and down the street and make all
sorts of excuses for your absence.
And If your voice cannot be contin-
ually and very successfully disguised
you had better not talk, but convey
your meanings by mods and motions,
not forgetting to shake hands all
'cu'' iSpSuNNuIy tiIu " iuuSH, SpSut-
ly but heartily, with much shaking of
sides and bending over.
Santa may play ut being late, and
after he has filled the stockings he is
caught by dad, who loudly notifies the
household and insists that the old fell
low pay visit and distribute the
gifts. Questions are asked about the
sleigh, which is supposed to have gone
on without its driver, so that the
youngsters won't want to run out and
look for 1t.
AT the end Of the ceremonies, which
should not last over half an hour,
sudden disappearance may be ar.
ranged by calling the children to the
window with the supposed discovery
of the returning sleigh, and Santa
may slip out of the room door, shed
and hide his duds and get out of the
house by the back way. returning
presently, with much noise, by the
front way, as though having been
gone for long time and, of course,
much disappointed to have missed
seeing Santa.
AS for the costume, that Is q mat
ter of varied opportunity, except that
the white whiskers and wig, the fun
ny little old tassled cap and the fat
stomach are essential.

Peculiarities of Stature.

Stature depends 4 good deal on ell
mate. The Bushmen live in the great
Kalahari desert, the tall Polynesians
on the Pacific islands, and enjoy all
the advantages nature can bestow.
The Hottentots. of the same race as
the Bushmcn. but inhabiting more fer
tile country, are nppreciably taller.
On the higher ground The people are
usually shorter, so that the Swiss and
central Europeans generally are stocky
rather than tall. Sometimes stature
varies with the class OF men. Early
emigrants to America before things
were made easy by the steamship COM
panies, were always taller than the
races from which they had sprung
They were picked men, full of physical
vigor and courage. Stature varies also
according to profession. About half
the professional and ecclesiastical
classes are tall men, but only about
one in ten Of the cobblers, weavers and
tailors reach the height of FIVE feet
seven inches.

EDUCATION.

Education consists Of stocking the
memory with a large collection Of
valuable facts so neatly arranged
that they can be taken out in a min.
ute's notice.
This is a very difficult task. It
takes almost twenty years to acquire
a complete and well-catalogued stock
OF knowledge. And even then 1t
consists only of we'll chosen samples
from all the different lines which
have been produced in the last 5000
years.
Many man has collected knowl-
edge for sixty years and has still
been compelled to order vast guam
titles Of necessary facts from the
catalogue each day.
When the young man has finished
laying in the staple lines at the high
school he goes to college where an
enormous collection of fancy educa.
tion is dispensed at very low rates.
Here he may remain for four years
buying stocks Of Latin, Greek, He
brew, archaeology, pheontology, cos
mology, biology, psycho-sociology
histology, neO-Platonology and other
costly complications with the utmost
Tecklessness.
Some young men have unlimited
shelf-Toom for this sort Of stuff, and
when they have been graduated go
on through life accumulating new
and alarming lines of knowledge.
But many students fill all available
shelves in their memory in their
sophomore year and pile the rest
Of the stuff on the floor.
This is great mistake. Nothing
is sadder than to see an earnest
young man wading wearily through
98,765 poorly catalogued facts in the
effort to find little mislaid infor-
nation in the art of holding an
en-dollara-week Job
He becomes confused and discour.

EXCUSE FOR CEAsING WORN

The Russian working people have
always seized upon Christmas as an
excuse for ceasing all work for some
what lengthy period-sometimes for a
month. Before the recent revolution
"Kolenda" was the celebration on
Christmas eve, when the peasants
gathered about the houses Of the no.
bles, sang carols and scrambled for the
coins tossed TO them from the win
dows. Then came great masquerade,
when peasants OF all ages dressed
themselves to represent animals, the
idea being TO perpetuate the memory
OF the lOwliness Of the Saviour's birth
IN the sable.
