What Do You Want?

used to look with longing upon the
display of pies and cakes and resolve
in his heart that IL fortune should
ever bless him with means he would
have enough of n feast for once. But
when, in after years, he passed the
same old shop and looked upon the
new treasures of the old window, now
with a pocketful of money, he had
ceased to care for the goodies, and
went on, jingling his useless coins.
What do we want now? Not what
we used to want. Not more pie, not
more candy, not more toys, not even
more money. The old ambitions have
been realized, the old goals have been
reached, we have the power of which
we dreamed, there doesn't seem to be
anything In sight worth running after,
we look out upon Il splendid world
with failing desire for it, we go on
by an acquired momentum rather than
with zest. Still, we are unsatisfied.
Yet we want something. What is it?
What do we want? What could the
Christmas time bring US of satlsfac-

lost art of Imagination? How would

If you could be a child again, just for
Christmas Eve, perhaps, you would see
the meaning of the stars that ride so
gloriously upon the billows Of space.
You might feel called up and out by
the supreme and satisfying joy that
Christmas signifies.
After all, we may have gained the
world and lost faith, an unreasonable
loss. Only he who keeps his childlike-

THERE is always a place to which
- one may flee in time of need. That
place is the inside of our own heads !!
Provided Of course, that the inside of
our own heads is properly furnished
with imagination and that the key is
not rusted in the lock from long dis
use. If you are little lonely on
Christmas eve, or little unhappy,
or n little anything that tends to tar
nish the glow of the season, why not
climb up to that place inside your
head, rattle the lock, be quite firm
with the key no matter how stubborn
it is, then enter into what joy you
may summon by your thoughts?
Glad wishes for friends are the
green wreaths we may hang in the
windows of our Christmas room.
Hopes for another year are the can
dies we light on the table.
New plans are the fruit to deck the
board, and very likely there will be a
guest or so to share them.
Think of the Fire of Purpose you
may light on your hearth
Think of the glow and warmth 1t
VIII cast over you
Think of the castles and dreams you
crowded out of your heart because
you We're too busy; the fine, adven-
turous ones; the funny ones you have
laughed over all to yourself; the shy
ones you would not reveal to a soul
at any price. Call them all back and
see what a splendid set of inspirations
they are. You'll feel like a new person
And don't forget to put present
on the Tree of Faith for yourself ;
something you've wanted all your life.
If you can't have it this year, waiting
will make it more precious; and If you
can (oh, think of that y you'll be all
the better prepared.

And all the world gives back the answer:

nNER nineteen hundred years ago
~ there lived in the little town of
Nazareth humble carpenter and his
wife, Mary.
AT this time the ruler of the Roman
| empire, Augustus Caesar, required all
persons to pay taxes for the upkeep
of the kingdom. Joseph was de-
scendant of King David. Although
he was living in Galilee, the law re-
qulred him to go to Bethlehem In Ju-
dea to pay his taxes.
When 1t was time to pay the trib-
ute, Joseph took Mary with him on
the journey to Bethlehem. 1t was
tlresome journey. They were very
weary when they reached the little
town. Joseph went to the hotel TO
get room where they could rest. But
poor Joseph was disappointed, for so
many other people had come to the
little town that day the rooms were
all taken. No doubt Joseph and Mary
felt lonely and discouraged as night
came on. At last they went to a stable
to find place to sleep. Here in a
manger the Savior of the World was
born.
This was very lowly place indeed
for the Prince of Peace to be born.
Prophets had been foretelling his COM
ing for many years. People were ex-
pecting him to come, but in some very
grand way. Some thought he would
make the kings leave their thrones
and himself be the ruler. But he
came as sweet, dear little babe.
Now, you wonder how the people
heard of his birth, in those long, long
ago days when there were no tele-
graphs or telephones? Perhaps you
think 50 important news as this would
be announced publicly by the highest
officials or the richest people in town
and a holiday declared.
But not so. The first news of his
birth was told to people engaged in
a very humble and lOwly work.
Methlnks it must have been a beau
tiful warm night. Far out on the hills
of old Judea the shepherds were herd
ing llleu SIetD. NO uOuDI lHey were
talking together about the big crowd
in Bethlehem that evening. Suddenly
there appeared in the sky a bright
light. The shepherds were afraid. An
angel spoke to them and said, "Be
not afraid; 1 bring you good tidings of
great joy which shall be to all people"
Then he told them that Jesus had
been born in Bethlehem; that they
would find him, babe, wrapped in
swaddling clothes lying in manger
with his mother, Mary.
Suddenly there appeared with the
angel a host of other angels singing,
"Glory to God in the highest and on
earth peace, good will to men,"
After the angels were gone the shep-
herds talked over the wondrous news.
Then they hurried away to Bethlehem
to see If it was true. Sure enough,
there were Mary and Joseph and the
little babe, Jesus. They then went out
to tell others.
God also told the news of his gift
to the world by placing a new star
in the sky. The wise men saw 1t and
followed It's shining rays until they,
too, found the Babe of Bethlehem"
These wise men worshiped him and
gave him gifts of gold, myrrh and
frankincense.
This was the first Christmas.

RLAMES BIG BUSINESS
MacNider Says Small Minority
Holds Up Soldiers Bonus.
Urges Passage of House Bill, as Did
Commander Of Veterans of
Foreign Wars.

Washington. April 25.--Opposition
to a soldiers bonus comes from a
small minority constituting what may
be termed "big business" and financial
interests. Hanford MacNider, national
commander of the American Legion
told the senate finance committee
when II met to consider bonus legisla-
ton.
MacNider declared these interests
have used every form of argument
available to prevent congress from
passing bonus bill. He called at
tention to the referendum" of the
Chamber of Commerce OF the United
States, leader of the opposition
forces, and declared the referendum
was not fairly taken and does not rep
resent sentiment in the country on the
bonus question. He submitted to the
committee long list of individual
chamber of commerce civic organiza-
tions and state legislatures which
have Endorsed the bonus.
MacNidcr urged passage of the
house bill. avs did Robert G.. Woodside
e0mmandcr of the Veterans of Foreign
Wars, Woodside suggested several
changes In the house measure, among
them being that the original plan of
paying the veteran his adjusted COM

cent I'm paid-up insurance of certifi-

plan which calls for payment of %

Woodside declared that passage of
some form of bonus legislation was in

country are in favor of 1t. He called
attention to the large vote cast in
favor of the bill when il passed the
house, and to the vote in the senate

COLLEGE WOMEN
HEAR ADDRESS
MUNICIPAL FORMS NOW IN
VOGUE EXPLAINED
AT MEETING

The recently organized College Wom-
ems club held a meeting last Satur-
day afternoon at the home OF Miss
Marie Bird, on McIndoe street, about
twenty-five attending. and an inter-
esting and instructive address by
Clarendon S. Snyder, of the Wausau
High school faculty, was heard Mr..
Snyder's topic was Municipal Forms
OF Government" and he devoted his
time TO an explanation of each of the
three general American types OF mu-
nicipal government, the mayor-coun-
Gil, the commission and the city-mana-
ger forms.
The mayor-council type of govern
ment is represented in our own city,
where an elected mayor and an elect
ed council constitute the administra-
ton. Galveston, Texas, was submitted
by Mr.. Snyder as an example of the
commission form. in which three or
five commissioners are elected at
large, these men having absolute
charge of the executive and legisla-
tive phases Of the municipal govern
ment, each man attending 20 some
special function. The city-manager
form, which during the past few years
has grown tremendously in public ia
vor, and which is conceded to be an
exceptionally practicable and effective
form, was explained in greater detail.
Mr.. Snyder cited Des Moines, Iowa, as
an example. The manager is. an APP
pointed individual and assumes entire
responsibility for the management OF
the municipality. He is appointed to
office by group Of commissioners
who are elected by the people. The
managers term OF Office is unlimited,
it being determined by the quality of
service he renders.
