AN UNUSUAL CHRISTMAS

This Christmas through which we have JUST
passed here has been = wonderful Christmas-won-
deriul in unusual ways.
In the nrst place the weather, Tor comfort, could
not have been improved upon--fair, open, balmy al
most as a spring day. One could drive, walk, lounge
al will in perfect comfort. Certainly we are in
clined to look for and hope for Il white Christmas
J but that Is due to the fact that we have become
accustomed to seeing such weather or feel that it
will give diversion or sport. This kind OF weather is
not calculated to add to the comfort OF the poor, or
lessen the burden OF those who must attend to the
household duties.
In the next place the real Christmas spirit has
been prevalent in Ardmore 10 a most marked degree.
Everybody seemed to want everybody else to have
Il good time and spared no effort to have it so.
Every movement set on foot to assist the more
unfortunate ones met with a most hearty and glad
response. Every call made by the Associated Chart
ties, the Red Cross, the Salvation Army and the
Alias Santa Claus Club was quickly met. In fact,
perhaps twice as many would have been cared for
had they been in .Ardmore. There was no stinting
on the part of the donors, and no reluctance on
the part OF the public. but with 4 Willingness, even
~sladness that was indeed refreshing they gave and
gave.
Again, while there were some minor offenses
committed against the law, there was little if any
fragrant or major violations in Ardmore during the
Christmas time. The city was free from maudlin
debauchery and sohriety and clean conduct pre-
vailed.

TRUTH IN FABRIC

The Truth in Fabric bill has been fayorably re-
ported by the senate interstate commerce committee.
1t provides that the wooden content and grade o:
wool in bolt and finished garment shall be given.
1t sets 4 standard for cloths that was established
for foodstuffs by the pure food act OF 1906. 1t would
be i violation OF this law to sell as virgin wool a
garment or piece OF cloth that was in fact revoked.
Our ideas OF the v%irginity OF garments we wear
will probably come in for a big discount, ii this
measure Is passed. We might find that we haven't
been wearing all pure wool. But that won't matter
q great deal, except that we will know exactly
what We are getting. 1t is often true that the public
likes to be deceived. But there are some who want
quality, and who put it above price. For their pro-
lection the Truth in Fabric" bin has been drawn mp.
1t is to be hoped that the measure will be passed
and signed by The president.
