INITIATE BIC CLASS IN
". D. w., ON ORDER S
32ND ANNIVERSARY

Monday. June 5, being the 32nd an
niversary of the founding of the
Wooimen of the World. the occasion
was very fittingly celebrated by a
joint initiation in the evening of a
large class of men and women into
the two orders of Woodcraft.
The hall was decorated in the col
ors of the two orders, red. white and
blue for the w. o. W., and purple and
green for the Woodmen Circle. The
gathering was called to order by Con-
sui Commander j. III. F'raley. After
announcing the program, the gavel
was turned over to Sovereign May
Meitzler, guardian of the Woodmen
Circle. VINO presided over the initia-
ton Of the Cihcle's candidates. The
initiatory work was exemplified by a
team of IL ladies who are all to be
commended on the excellent work put
on.
With the gavel in the hands of
Consul Commander Fraley the work
of the w. o. w. initiation was started.
The Uniform Rank degree team COM
posed of 16 men put on the work IN
a very commendable manner.
After the first degree. all candi-
dates agreed to call it a night, and
the meeting was adjourned to the
banquet room where all enjoyed re-
freshments of ice cream and cake.
This closes only the first lap OF
the vigorous campaign being carried
on for Woodcraft, not only in Phoe-
nix. but throughout the state which
has been the means of putting Ari-
zona in fifth place on the net gain
honor roll in competition with all
states of the union. The dispensa-
ton Will continue through another
so days which will complete the sec
ond lap of the campaign, at which
time another class initiation will be
held.

will hold their annual unveiling and
memorial service at Greenwood GEM
etery. All members are requested
to meet at the X. of p. hall at D. m.

smallpox, prevalent here now is of
the Asiatic variety, the most serious
form, and that every precaution must
be taken to bring it under control.
"To tlose who cannot pay for vac
cination at this time. the city offers
a free Clinic" DR.. Garrison said, land
many are taking advantage of this
service. The vaccine used in the free
inoculations is Of the very best grade
and is giving excellent results. Vac
cination is the only certain insurance
against smallpox, and it is to the
interest of every one to take this
means of protecting themselves and
their families"
DR.. Garrison gave it as his opinion
that the crisis of the epidemic has
been passed, but added a warning
that the danger is not over.

SOUTH SEA ISLES
GIVEN new RATING

San Francisco, Sept. 2.-South Sea
Islands with their cocoanut groves,
intoxicating moonlight nights, coral
wave-splashed shores and dancing
grass-clad damsels, are very fine-in
books or the movies. But as for N.
p. Benson, first mate of the Ameri-
car schooner Henriette. give him
beefsteaks and open plumbing.
Such in substance was Mate Ben
sons assertion to-day when he ar
rived in San Francisco on the British
motorship Hauraki from the Island
of Nakualailai in the Ellice group in
the South Seas.
Benson and his crew were on their
way from Fiji to San Francisco some
weeks ago on the schooner Henriette.
The schooner was wrecked and the
crew found refuge ON the little tropi-
cal isle.
In a recent interview in Honolulu,
Capt. J. A. T. Olsen of the Henerette
described the island as a miniature
replica of the Oriental idea of Para
disc, where the women outnumbered
the men fourteen to one. Not dis
putting the captains word, Mate Ben
son AYERS his own wife had any group
of fourteen women IN the island beat
in any way and besides, fish and
cocoanuts all the time" are not a
good diet, he averred.
The mate described the inhabitants
of the island as good looking, hospi-
table and healthy. He said they had
acquired religion from missionaries
who occasionally visit the islands
and held services for about three
hours each Sunday, which the crew
had to attend. but they made up
for it," Benson said, 'by giving a
dance every night" The sailor said
the women were not hampered by
clothing any more than actresses are
in many American stage perform
ances.
THE principal thing a South Sea
Island is good for is to make a mar
glad to get back to civilization mate
Benson said.
Mrs. Benson was present through.

priests sent sprigs of holly to each
rude Briton hut, partly as a peace
offering, partly as q remainder to
decorate the homes with it and
thereby encourage sylvan spirits to
enter and to drive away frost and

the Protestant, Roman Catholic n
Greek Churches. Such customs as
those of having a Christmas tree,
decorating with holly and mistletoe,
are almost universal. In many
European countries carol singing is
a feature.
O. What is the origin Of Xmas?-
K. L. G.
A. The x used in the abbrevia-
ton is derived from the fact that
Christ was crucified. The symbol of
the cross was thus introduced into
the word Christmas. The custom is
SO ancient as to be lost in antiquity.
@. What is the origin of the use
of mistIetoe, holly and Christmas
greens?-O. L. ID.
A. This use of svergreens pre-
dates Christmas. The celebration OF
Christmas IL a Christian adaptation
of the earlier Roman Saturnalian
festival, which itself had a spiritual
meaning. These Roman revels stood
for the brotherhood of man and

Far north in the snow country, timber wolves are run
ming in packs-their winter combinations for waging war
far.
A wolf-pack, closing in on a pursued deer, is shown above
in the pen-picture by Artist Satterfed.
The chase is nearly over. The fangs of the lead-wolf are
about to ham-string the tendons Of the deer's hind leg. Then
the wolves will feast. And while they alternately gorge and
bay the yellow moon, other deer in the forest will be safe.
For wolves kill only to satisfy their hunger-keep them
selves alive. The more brutal life-murder and war-they
leave to humans. -
With stomachs filled, wolves do not again seek prey until
the hangs of hunger drive them to it. No wringing the life
blood from the poor and unfortunate, for sheer JOY OF II,
among wolves. A different story, among the preylng pronteer-
ing wolves of so-called civilization.
AS you study Satterfeld S picture, this will occur to you;
The wolves win because they are organized. The deer lose
because they are not organized. You never hear OF deer oand-
ing together to face a common enemy.
Each deer for himself, and the others can shut tor them
selves. From this, learn anew the value, to each individual:
all. Therein is the way to conquer the wolves OF life.

T.. WAen was Cnrlstnas first cell

A, 1t is not definitely known
when Christmas was first celebrat-
ed. The institution of the festival is
attributed to Telesphorus who flour
ished in the reign of Antoninus Plus
(1S1-161 A. d.. This, however, is
not historical. It has often been OBJ
jected that December rs cannot be
the true date of the birth of Christ,
for 1t is then the rainy season in
Palestine and shepherds would
scarcely have been watching their
sheep by night in the fields. The
reason for the final choice of Deem
Der 25 cannot now be determined.
A widespread feast of the Great
Mother may have influenced the de-
cision, also the desire to place a
Christian feast in opposition to the
Roman feast of SOL invectus'' at the
winter solstice. At the winter SOL
stice. the Germans held their great
Yule feast in commemoration of the
return of the fiery sun, and many of
the beliefs and usages OF the old
this matter passed from heathenism
to Christianity and have survived to
the present day. AS Christianity
spread. the feast of the winter sol

to increase, and to triumph over
darkness, was changed into the
Feast of Christ. the Light of Life.

DEVELOPING COUNTY PARKS

Il the Essex and Union county park commissions getting together
b cooperate in a park system that will connect so as to make a
aontinuous pleasure ground through both counties. The Essex
county park system is famous for its beauty. Union county, which
sdjoins Middlesex on the north, is going to develop a similar sys-
kem and Middlesex is next. This county is within a few thousand
lie the required population to have a park commission and the land
1aready owned by the county at Menlo Park would make an ex-
eelent beginning for a county park system. r
It is significant that the Essex and Union county park commits

WASHINGTON, Dec. 26-In the
hubbub of voices raised to demand
women's rights in the home, an &C.
casional faint chirp from the mans
side may occasionally be heard.
Il believe in equal rights for
women" says one brave but anony-
nous husband, but if women are
going to claim economic equality
in the home they should accept a
lair share of the responsibility and
forego the outworn privileges that
went with their old status as de-
pendent wives.
THE wife who makes her own
money still thinks she has the right
to go through her husbands poe
kets for change" he added joking
". And where once a woman was
dependent on her husband for pin
| money and her clothes, now in
| some cases the husband has the
worse of the deal. A wife who
works may even let her husband
use all his salary to pay the living
expenses of the household, while
she keeps her salary for herself and
puts money in the bank in her own
name"
This is a strange situation which
the perpleXed husband points out.
For centuries wives have been sub
ject to the generosity or s~tinsiness
of their husbands. Even today the
woman who stays at home is apt
to be given a personal allowance
while her husband manages the
household finances and pays the
bills. The husband who makes his
wife a generous allowance is con-
-flArAI -AnInrn nn1 mad mi Aan
But according to some feminists
such a man is still the old-fashion-
ed type-the master oil the house
doing out gifts to his dependents.
Still, we have undoubtedly enter
ed a transition period. Some new
ideas about family finance have been
generally accepted, while other adj
justments that are necessary IL the
new regime is to be practical are
yet to be made.
Thus, 1t is no longer thought
strange for a wife to keep up her
interest in her profession or art or
business. But we have not yet be-
come used to the idea that IL she is
going to remain an individual,
though married, the wife cannot
expect to leave all the economic
worries on her husbands shoulders.
The wife who gets all the money
she can, leaving him to struggle
over the bills is far from extinct.
But already she is considered a lit
tie old-fashioned. She has retained
an idea, deeply inreoted in women
through centuries of tradition, that
a man is legitimate prey fer gold
digging, and that the man who
asks her to be his wife there
upon takes upon himself complete
responsibility for her livelihood.
This sort of financial problem In
all its possible variations is found
in a large percentage of homes to-
