several opened books and many letters
strewn about a letter file.
One of the large armchairs stood
In front of the massive coal stove in
which the blue flames danced like lit
tie elves upon the red Goals, defying
heartily the bowling wind outside.
Some one seemed to have been pres
ent recently. The chair held a bath
robe, the cord of which dangled care
lessly on the floor, and the tassel Of
which rested upon an open letter be-
low it. Some one had been reading old
letters and that person was cozily
nestled in the bath robe. His tousled
head Of grey rested on the back Of
the chair. He was sleeping and GER

his face. The flames joined in the
happy mood by dancing higher and
faster. Even peaceful and happy
hours have endings. Mrs. Bohnenstock

gently shook her husband.

out opening his eyes, II am too old to

"Helen? Whom are you talking of?
I do believe you have been dreaming"
answered his wife.
At the sound Of her voice, he was
entirely awakened and arose from the
chair. He staggered about before he
regained all consciousness and his
arms and legs ached from their
cramped position. II guess I've been
dreaming, Molly, it seems as though
I'd been asleep for a whole year. Molly

George. It has all been taken care of.
John Uglow came over this afternoon
and we talked about our Christmases
when our boys we're small. When 1t
began to grow dusk, he said that l
should not disturb you and that he
would feed the stock"
swell, Molly, so you and John talked
over the Christmases we had with our
little boys" said Mr.. Bohnenstock
sinking back into his chair and beck
oning his wife to sit on the arm Of it.
II am glad to see that others miss
those beautiful holidays and the whole
month before, when the air was full
of mysteries"
"Oh, George, now I know what you
were talking Of when 1 came to wake
you" Molly said, running her fingers
through his tousled hair. "Tell me
about It,"

SAYSCADETS WON
A MORAL VICTORY
Secretary OF War Weeks, So De-
clares, Praising Arrny's
Work In Game
Secretary of War Weeks is a GOO

Secretary of War Weeks is a good
loser.
AS the boss of the War Department
he is the boss OF the Military Aead-
envy and as such had his heart in the
fortunes of the Army football team
against the Navy last Saturday. The
Army lost after plucky battle, and
Secretary Weeks wants the Army
players 10 know that he regards their
~plucky fight as a moral victory.
To this end he has written letter
10 Gen. Douglas Macarthur. Superin-
tendent of the Military Academy, in
which he said.
1t was my pleasure on Saturday
last 10 witnes the game between the
West Point Cadet football team and
that from the Navy | was particular
ly struck by' the gameness and in
domitable spirit of the Army team and
its pertinacity under what may be
considered adverse circumstances.
odds were very freely offered on
the Navy team before the beginning of
the game, and the seasons playing
had indicated what proved to be the
case that the Navy had the stronger
team. That might, TO a less gallant
team than ours. have seemed justifi-
cation for let-down in morale. 1t is
the fine spirit which prompted the
West Point team to play it's red
blooded hest under these circum-
stances which has ever characterized
tie United States Academy and has
won for it the hopes and prayers of
our people in many times of emer-
gency
ITO have played as it did on Satur-
day and against such real odds con-
stitutes to my mind moral victory |
would rather have been a witness to
their defeat under such circumstances
than to their victory against a less
worthy opponent.
81 congratulate you on the showing
made by our team and ask you to let
them know my admiration for their
spirit"

COMPLETES DOCKET

The Court of Appeals has on its as
Segment of cases today all the re-
naming appeals of the October term
TO be heard. 1t was expected that all
cases would be concluded before the
end of the days session.
The Court has had most strenuous
term, probably the heaviest docket in
its history.
Several circumstances assisted the
judges in advancing the work and of
disposing of appeals. A number Of
cases were submitted on briefs and
others continued; hut the handspring
of the clearance of the docket was the
persistent and untiring perseverance
and industry of the Court. 1t steadily
pursued the hearing of the appeals in
hours and after hours when necessary.
hence the end of the docket in due
time. The Court will now take re-
cess while the judges will prepare
their opinions for delivery at the as
sembling of the January term, 1922.

An amusing book that has recently
gone into its seventh edition is Diet
and Health With Key to the Gallo
ries" by Lulu Hunt Peters, A. b..
NJ. D. II is published by the Reilly
Lee Company. of Chicago.
The author terms it "a literary
gem. humorous. classic and scien-
tific treatise on weight reduction and
in the main she is right.
First published in 1918. the present
edition has new chapter and num-
her OF additional menus included in 1t.
DR. Peters writes her instructions

pathetically, albeit very firmly, and
she knows whereof she speaks. for she
announces in the first chapter that

dred and eighteen-and now look iat

OF all the books of the "eat and

writer the easiest one to follow. as it
reduces the subject to simple mathe-
NAUTICAL problem. and there is no COM
plicated dieting in connection with 1t.

POTOMAC LANDINGS, A
VOYAGE OF DISCOVERY
ON FAMILIAR WATERS

Sometimes there are things lying
almost directly under ones figurative
nose-fhings TO which little heed is
given, and which are taken absolute
ly for granted Then. along comes
someone and brings them into notice.
and. behold. great is the establishment
on finding these kenfor-granted
affairs fun Of beauty and a romance
quite unsupported hitherto. and one
starts on a little. private voyage OF
discovery on a familiar wellknown
sea.
Such a voyage OF discovery can be
made. by the most Of us in reading
Paul Wilstach's Potomac Landings"
which Doubleday Page has just pub
lished in an attractive volume. not
a little added to by the photographs
OF the old Colonial houses which yet
stand-either on the banks OF the
Potomac itself. or on the thirty-two
navigable creeks" which cut into the
shores OF the river between Washing
ton and Chesapeake Bay.
So much has been said about the
James River and the estates border
ing IT.. that the average person has
been inclined 10 yield II the palm
for historic interest without inquir-
ing further. but Mr.. Wilstach paints
a picture OF life as IL was in the man
1rs OF the Maryland and on the plan
tations OF the Virginia sides OF the
broad Potomac river in the 18th and
18th centuries. which clearly shows
what important parts in the smolding
OF our nation were played by the in
habltants of these localities.
Here. at Wakefield. on the Virginia
shore was born George Washington
and. on the river at Mt. Vernon, he
lived his later years. From Chantil

DOUGLAS FAIRBANKS PICTURE
TONIGHT At CIRCLE PLAY
H0IrSE

One of the truly big pictures of the
year is shown tonight at the Circle
Playhouse. THE Three Musketeers,"
the immortal work of Alexander
Dumas and starring the active Doug
las Fairbanks. will be shown for the
remainder of this week at but slightly
increased prices
Flashing swords. supreme sacrifice
and daring deeds of heroism make this
picture one OF the most thrilling from
the standpoint of entertainment that
could possibly be asked for The act
ing and directing are SO good that
they almost defy criticism. Those who
have had doubts as to the dramatic
ability of Fairbanks will quickly dis
card their doubts when they see The
Three Musketeers." His love-making
is of the sort that rings true: it is
neither silly nor over-done. The scene
in which he comes TO the queen ex-
hausted but in possession of the stolen
Jewels is one of the most dramatic
and realistic ever seen on either stage
or screen. The photography and ar
tistic settings and direction have set
a new mark in film production.
OF special interest TO the patrons
of the Circle is the musical accompani-
ment. consisting of special orchestra
supplemented by the Circle pipe organ.
