days Marian planned her Christmas
dinner. She sailed nuts, she made
cranberry sauce. She ordered a fine
young turkey. She wasn't nervous
about the tdrkey-that was just about
as easy as chicken.
Yes, she was planning to have the
old-time Christmas dinner. She
wouldn't tell Bert. She would sur
prise him. And then, If she did tell
him, she might be more nervous about
the things she had planned to do, feel
ing that he was going to be so proud
of her that she couldn't fulfill his ex-
pectations of her success.
So she worked and planned and
schemed.
And that Christmas eve when Bert
kissed her goodnight she smiled to
herself as she heard him say.
"Well, it's quite true. People have
always eaten too much at Christmas
time In past years"
Bert's family all arrived In due sea-
son for Christmas dinner.
"Well, were you nervous over your
first turkey?' asked Aunt Emilina.
And how happy Marian was that she
could say that she hadn't been nerv-
Gus and that it was going to come out
all right, she thought.
81 bet it was job making your
first plum pudding" said Uncle
George, and Bert looked angry and
grieved He didn't want anyone to
make his Marian feel uncomfortable.
And now his own family were doing it.
"Uncle George" Bert said, 1--WE
meant to tell you. We're not going
to have one of those old-time din
ners. We think that people have al
ways felt wretchedly at Christmas, and
after Observation-Disclosures and all.
So we're just going to have nice
simple dinner"
Marian had left the room now. But
she could hear the defending note in
Bert's voice, and at the same time a
note of sadness that their dinner was
going to be so simple
She wanted to rush in now and tell
them all that it wouldn't be so simple,
and to put her arms around Bert's
neck and kiss him. He was standing
up for her. And they were all try
ing to be critical. And she had IN
vited them all to her house This
was the way they were accepting her
hospitality!
sBut, following number more SIM
liar remarks on how did she get along

Heavy Loss Caused by Fungi.

The annual loss caused by forest
fires is enormous, but it is no greater
than that attributable to fungi, which
rot mine timbers, bridge timbers, tele-
graph poles and other structures OF
wood, necessitating their replacement.
The slife" of the average railway tie
/, is seven and half years; if fungi
would let it alone it would last twice
that long.

One of the most pgzzling words is
haberdasher. This was formerly ped

name comes from two old words
hafer, meaning oats, and tasche, q
sack.
