The Christmas ;

Copyright, 1921, Western Newspaper Union

~ AM Christmas Card. l was
born shortly before Christmas Of
1913. / was put away in a box
after Christmas and the next year l
came forth again, and the price put
upon me had risen from two cents to
five.
The next year 1 cost ten cents. Still
| did not sell.
"We1l have to charge a quarter for
that card" my owner said, land get
up the prices Of some Of these others,
or they won't be bought"
+. So I was quarter. And then l
cost so cents and was purchased.
The price mark has been left on me.
I've been travelling with 1t written On
my back ever since. Sometimes, too, l
get around to a number of places
around Christmas time, especially if
I'm started off early in the first place.
So far, too, I've been greeted with
Joy, and an exclamation 1 do not quite
understand.
"Oh, good! Here's a card which is
marked fifty cents. Who would believe
it possible, but no matter, 1t did! And
it's not written ON, ether"
:" / do not understand their Joy over
me, but they never keep me with
them!

their own happy destinies? Would
they have not rather gone their separ-
ate ways, yet two more unhappy
mortals whose lives were but a
makeshift?
Yet she had lied and in that lie
:. she had cheated him, the one whom
, of all others she had cared most for
, she had cheated most completely.
Perhaps he didn't care for children
now. Perhaps he would never think
Of them again. Perhaps, oh perhaps.
hundred conjectures!
But clearly standing above the
others were these two issues-she had
lied to win him and because Of that
lie she had cheated and played false
to the one she loved
. A lie is vigorous parent. imbu-
ing its offspring with its ever power
full blood of doubt and worry. Always,
she felt. she would think from time
to time that she had cheated him, and
that in the deep recesses of her mind
he would feel her love had. been a
very frail and weak thing. e.
Yet again and again reverted to her
mind the knowledge that had 1t not
been for that lie when she had spoken
it Gregory and she would never have
been happy.
And these doubts and worried
thoughts were the heritage Of lie
such as hers had been.
1t seemed like miracle. She had
given up all hope. Still at times the
lie she had told in the first place of
all haunted her, because she felt she
had cheated Gregory. He never re-
ferred to it. He seemed radiantly
happy. But she had worried.
And then some time after she had
told him, she knew. She was glad she
had told him. She was glad that he
knew her weaknesses and faults and
all. Her happiness over the coming
child was so much greater because she
had told him.
"And it's to be an anniversary child"
The Christmas carols were pealing
forth when small boy opened his
eyes upon the world so new to him.
'Tm sorry it's not girl so we can
call her Marjorie" Gregory smiled.
'Tm delighted It's boy and that we
car name him Gregory Marjorie
whispered.
Merry Christmas" Gregory said, a
little later. The clock just struck
twelve.

swered.
And the small boy gave a shrill
little cry.
'That's his way Of saying Merry
Christmas" Marjorie added.
I'm delighted to have 1t explained
to me-" her husband chuckled.

hopes and aspirations and ambitions
and emotions and dreams into the
coming Of another generation when
they had sworn and believed before
God and man that they would only
love each other. Did they love each
other so little? Did they care only for
the sake of the family It couldn't
be.
That was too cold belief.
Another year passed and they began
growing apart. Marjorie had become
restless, unhappy. Was It because Of

''My darling. I'm SO relieved" he
said. "AIl care about is that you

ut was never that, it was never
that" she said.
"You see. Marjorie" he went on,
''if at first you had told me you were
to have child would have been de-
lighted-it would have seemed the
conventional idea of the completion
of married life which I had pictured
in my mind. Afterward realized that

loved me.
Lately I've become very jealous
of your desire for children because

She was happy then as she hadn't
heen before, happy in the love that
he now gave her. the love for which
she had braved lie.
And even as he held her close she

picking moral issues. Had she not

A Good Modelling Material.

1t is often very difficult to keep a
child confined to the house amused.
But with modelling material with
which they can make animals. beads,
etc, they can be kept amused for hours.
Take four tablespoonful cornstarch,
eight tablespoonful salt and eight
tablespoonfuls boiling water. Mix the
dry ingredients and pour on the boiling
water, stirring until the mixture is soft.
Put on the fire and stir until it forms
a soft bah, then remove from the stove
and stir for ten minutes. A little color
may be added. Wrap in oiled paper
when not in use to keep from harden
ing.

Special Meeting
Special meeting of the Common Coun-
Gil of the City of Sank Centre, held
Saturday. December 3rd at 1880 D. m.
The Council convened on call of the
Mayor, with all the members present

resolution and moved it's adoption, viz:
Whereas. on the 26th day of Sep
TENDER, 1921 the Common Council by

cumStances at times But / think
most of them could be avoided if
people talked openly and candidly be-
fore they were married"
He told her then that he cared for
children, that they would mean a
great deal to him.
She felt herself growing more and
more tense The whole of her ached
for him. Yes, she had waited all her
life for him, never mistaking in any
of the others, the substitute for the
real. ,-
II feel as you do" she said softly,
II love children!''
And she spoke the truth. But yet Il
truth that was only half truth.
They were married. in the little vii
lage church on Christmas Eve and
when later the carols pealed forth they
felt as though even the carols were
for their happiness alone!
They had been married several
years. Closer and closer had they
grown together. How glad she was
she had waited until she was sure
she loved. She had had so many pro-
pOsals, and there were girls who had
had so few. She had often thought of
the girl to whom the simplest of
pleasures had come as complete and
magnificent JOY. This girl had had no
attentions, her life had been almost
manless, At last came man into her
life, very slowly, very Internationally,
but each slow step along the way was
one which thrilled her and which
mounted up to huge and great proper
lions. It had to be a great deal to
rouse Marjorie but Gregory had
reused her-fully.
She had always kept her fresh
charm and her appeal though she had
left youth behind. Her skin was
smooth, her color good. her eyes
dark and lustrous and her hair had
no traces Of gray.
But during this time no children had
COME to them. Gregory now didn't
seem to care whether they came or
not. He was quite content with her.
~People change their ideas after
they marry If they really love the
woman they marry" he used to tell
her. Before they have theories. Now
II children came, all we'll and good.
But couldn't be any happier than I
am now"

knew 1t. He was even jealous Of her

what 1t meant to marry. he some
times asked himself. Did people for

Bell Ringing,
One of the Oldest
Christmas Customs
0KHQ HAT would Christmas be with
WV out the melody of the bells
ringing good will faWard mon


Bell ringing is one of the oldest of
Christmas customs. AT one time, in
England, the ringers gave their serv-
ices free, nor would they accept any
special payment. The peal was rung
as matter of course. and WAS the
natural expression Of English joyous
ness. The merry music of the bells in
Great Britain and wherever churches
have peaIs of bells, is tosI;y as much
IL feature of Christmas rs the decOra-
tion Of church anu home with ever
greens, or the provision of the good
cheer which always marks this festive
season.
What an cutlery there would be if
an edict We're issued forbitlding the
ringing of the bells during the coming
festive season! Yet this was actually
done during the Commonwealth, for
in 1852 the wise men of parliament
gave orders that mo observation shall
be had Of the fiveand-twentieth day
of December, commonly called Christ
mas day"
1t is quite certain that this edict
was disregartied In MANY places, while
in others il led to open riOting. At
the mayor of the city tried
to enforce the new rule, hut the people
were not going to be deprived of their
pleasures SO easily, so they took the
law into their own hands, broke the
windows-and some of his
bones as well-aDd affirmed their in
tentiOn of keeping their Christmas in
their own fashion, just as their fathers
had done before them.

 A transaction concerning a, fur coat, sold to Snow under protest has caused the action.

It was opened by Andree Tardieu, former French high commissioner to the U, S., who fired a series of interpel1a- tions regarding German indemnity NJ. Tardieu assai1ed the government for permitting M.
