NO ADMISSION
WILL BE CHARGED
Presentation of the Messiah" I'm
DEBORAH at Christmas Time
Has Become a Tradition.

The Messiah" will be presented
for the tenth time this year since
the DEBORAH Choral Union was or
ganized in 1905 with Prof. Carlo A.
Sperati as director. 1t must be un>
derstood, however, that the Choral
Union has presented several other
works of a similar nature at other
times. As announced some time
previously, the management of the
Messiah" for this year has been
turned over TO the Musical Union
of Luther College, and will be given
Sunday, Dec. 18th, at 1880 p. NJ.
in the First N. L. l.. church.
The presenting of the Messiah"
in DEBORAH at Christmas has be-
come tradition, and the fact that
people in the vicinity of Decoran
have inquired for particulars about
the presentation of it indicates that
knowledge of this tradition has
spread beyond the confines of De-
corah itself. Those who hear the
Messiah each year agree that it is a
noble tradition because the character
of the Messiah is such that each
opportunity to hear it only Increases
the appreciation of it. In fact, il
is said that singers do not really
do justice to it until they have sung
it several times.
No admission will be charged, but
a silver collection will be taken in
order TO defray the expenses which
arise in an undertaking of
S"''--.- 49, As. has been the custom |
in the past, the Messiah will be
rendered with full orchestra accom-
paniment.

Getting Public Work Done

Officers of churches and other or
CARNATIONS complain of the difficulty
they have in finding helpers If you
want q committee to arrange a
Christmas entertainment, or get up
a public supper, or some one to teach
a Sunday school class, it often takes
a long time to find those who will
serve.
There used to be more women with
free time which they would give to
public work. Some who used to
hire servants, do their own house
work now and girls who formerly
remained at home now have regular
jobs. Many are occupied with club
life, motoring, card playing, etc. Ev-
erybody seems to be busy.
Yet more public work than ever
before is done. Perhaps people are
learning TO let up on suppers and
fairs and undertakings that yield no
positive result, and to go in for work
that is constructive and educational.
The people who allow their time to
be so occupied with their own con-
Germs that they have done for comN
munity enterprises live rather self
ishly and miss many rewards.

Sweater.
WAS SENT FROM
DEBORAH DURING WAR
Didn't Find Its Way Across the Sea,
But Did Its Duty 10 Relieve the
Fireman From Cold in
Chicago

A special delivery letter was re-
ceived last Friday by Melvin Moen,
son of Mr.. and Mrs. Theo. Moen, of
this city, from Chicago city fire
man, which gave Melvin information
about a Red Cross sweater he gave
to the Red Cross here in 1918, when
he was twelve year old, during the
war. Evidently the sweater didn't
get overseas, but nevertheless it PEI
formed mission on this side of the
water. Melvins father, by the way
is first assistant Chief of the De-
corah fire department.
The sweater contained card read
ing: melvin Moen, age IL years,
DEBORAH, Iowa, U. S. A. Please
write"
The letter from the Chicago fire
man follows:
Chicago, Dec. z, 1922
Master Melvin Moen
DEBORAH, Iowa.
/ suppose you would like to know
the fate of the sweater you sent to
the Red Cross. Well j have it, and
want to thank you for it. / am a
fireman for the city. of Chicago at
present. We had a fire the Other
day at Michigan avenue and Rush
Street, and the Red Cross building
is next door; it also being out Oh
the lake front. AS we were cold
and wet we put on the clothes taken
out of the Red Cross building and /
your sweater, appreciated
it very immensely. We are not eX-
actly down town but cover the loop,
Auhirl1 &c the heart of JhiNee,v. On
the second alarm they pulled Ali
and sent a special for engines
more, which brings in about 20 en-
CINE companies, trucks or hook
and ladder companies and about o.
squads, so you see that it was no
small fire that your sweater done
service in.
If you would rather have it fallen in
to the hands of a soldier or sailor
would still feel entitled to it, be-
cause / put in seven months
overseas myself with the 68th Coast
and would have written
from there had it fallen into my
hands there, so will close, hoping to
hear from you again, | remain
Yours with thanks

QUICK JUSTICE

Just one week after going on trial
for the murder of her husband, Mrs.
Kate Shurtz was found guilty and
her punishment fixed at life impris-
onment. The jury that decided the
fate of the woman was out less than
one hour, says the Burlington Gaz-
cite.
1t is not the purpose to discuss
the merits of the verdict. The jury
had the best opportunity for decid-
ing this question. The fact that
they consumed less than an hour
in reaching their decision indicated
that they had been quite unanimous
ly convinced that the facts brought
out by the state in the trial, justi-
fed the finding.
The entire conduct of the case was
an encouraging commentary upon
the speeding up of the trials of per-
sons charged with crime. One of the
faults of American court procedure
is the loop holes that allow for end
less delays. Both state and defense
should be allowed ample time 10 pre-
pare their cases. But jockeying for
an advantage and haggling over mi
nor considerations has resulted fire.
quently in bringing courts into dis
favor.
AS far as the public is concerned
the case of Mrs. Shurtz is ended
save for the customary motion for q
new trial.
Call the next case.

The Court: | understand that the

this court certified copies of the In

Women Abandoning the Farms

Washington, d. C.,-More women
than men are leaving the farms for
other fields of endeavor, the census
bureau says, on Analysing the 1920
census statistics. The enumeration
shows the ratio of males to females
was higher for farm population than
for the total population, despite the
fact that the foreign born element,
in which the males considerably out
number the females, is found mainly
in the cities. The sex ratio OF farm
population on Jan. /, 1920, was l9O.l
males to 100 females, while the ratio
for the entire population was lOi
males to 100 females.
OF the number of farm jewellers,
totalling 31,614,269, males number
