Sundays Story
"Billio And Tonnnio Bear

Billy woke up early the next morn

would go right out to- play before
breakfast.
Going into the next room for Tom
Tommie was to be seen. Running
into his mothers room he asked
where's Tommie?"
HE got homesick last night and
Daddy had to take him home" his
mother answered.
Can I go over to his house and
play this morning?"
Eyes you can go for all day.

Billy Bear started at half past nine
at pace which would have done a
mule credit He arrived there at
ten o'clock.
He and Tommie got their sleds
and went over to the school to coast
on the hill. A race was about to be
begun and they were allowed to take
part in it. All of the contestants
were very evenly matched, but when
the race ended it was found that
Tommie, Billy and Jack Rabbit were
the winners. After the race '9intro-
duction were made and good time
began for all.
That afternoon Tommie and Billy
went to the movies and upon coming
out discovered that it was almost
time for Billy to go home. They
stopped in and got an ice cream soda
from the funny old man at the drug
store however before Billy did leave.
About half way home Billy over
took little Petey Frog, whofwent to
his school. running as fast as he
could.
What's the matter Petey," he
called.
''The schools on fire and it looks
like the court house is going to
catch" was the breathless reply.
'Well jump on her with me and
we will get there in a jiffy," invited
Billy Bear.

TENANTS LAUGH AT
LANDLORDS CLAIMS
Get Rent Free in Glasgow OW-
ing to Legal Decision.

Glasgow, Dec. 30.-A chaotic situa-
ton has developed along the Clyde
side, owing to the refusal of tenants to
pay rent for many months past, at
least 10000 hcuseholders in Glasgow
alone participating.
The result is that the landlords are
not paying their taxes to the local
governments, and in consequence the
administration is disorganized.
The courts are powerless to inter-
vene, owing to recent decision of
the house of lords in the tenants IA
vor on a technical point connected
with wartime restriction legislation.
The Glasgow landlords will lose H.
100000 If the decision is not altered.
The trouble began in 1920, when
majority of Scottish agents for land
lords failed to serve formal notices to
tenants before raising the rentals and
giving them opportunity to give up
their tenancy if they did not wish to
pay the increases. The house of lords
held that the omission rendered all
the increases that were collected il
legal.
Consequently the tenants are "sit-
ting tight" until such increases are
liquidated in respect to the future
rent

Bedtime Stories
''Billy Bear Has Company"

When Billy Bear awoke the morn
ing after falling in the ditch he had
a terrible cold. 1t was so bad that
his mother told him he would nave to
stay in the house all day. You all
know that it is very hard to have to
sit at a window and watch the other
children having a good time In the
snow.
This was the way with Billy Bear.
He began to cry but Immediately
stopped upon hearing his mother
premise.
eff you will be a good boy Billy,
and take it like a man l will BRING
you a surprise when I go down this
afternoon"
This made it easier to bear so Billy
settled down to read the books and
play with the toys that Santa Claus
had brought him.
At last after what had seemed
years to Billy his mother came home
from down town. She had two bags.
One was small and the other was
very large. 1t looked almost like 1t
held potatoes. The small bag prov
ed to be a pound of candy.
'BuL why dlQ you SSL ~ LII uelA
Mumsey " questioned Billy.
Open the other bag and maybe you
will see" was the reply he received
Upon opening it he found little
Tommie Bear his cousin from Bear
Vile
The result of the afternoon was
spent in playing games, telling each
other stories, then Tommie told Billy
about his school and Billy in turn
told him of his.
The afternoon passed so quickly
they hardly realized it was time for
supper when Billy's father came
home from work. Alter supper
when Tom started to go home Billy
begged him so hard that he-decided
to spend the night.

No Issue OF This
Paper New Years Day

| Following the custom established
over twenty-five years ago, when
| publication of The Banner was be-
gun, there will be no issue of this
paper on New Years Day.
In closing the year 1922 we thank
| the public for the generous patron
| age accorded US during this and pre-
| vious years and also for the patience
| and forbearance shown in the past
| seven months during which time we
| have worked under very trying cir
cumstances, the end Of our building
having been out part of the time,
windows out, scaffolds erected all
over the building, plasterers, plumb
ers, painters, carpenters, electricians,
etc, at work, during all of which
time we have never missed an issue
of our papers.
We expect during the coming year
to publish a much better paper than
has been published in the previous
quarter Of century of The Banners
life. We have installed faster and
larger press, are putting in an ad-
ditional type setting machine, expect
to put in stereotyping outfit buy ad-
ditional type and make such other
expenditures as may be necessary to
put our equipment in first class con-
dition. We confidently believe that
we shall have the loyal cooperation
of the public in our effort to publish
better paper.
We wish for the people of this
community health, peace and happi-
ness during the coming year and
hope that all of our people may be
more prosperous. We know that
large portion of our population has
not been prosperous during the past
two years but we believe that the
clouds are lifting and that the sun of
prosperity will shine brightly during
the next year for them and for all
kindred industries. That this may
be realized is our New Years wish
for one and all.

least of sinners. can come to God
| through Him; and that there is none
other name under heaven given among
men by which we must be saved, is the
apostolic conviction and challenge to
faith.
Jesus Walked With Men
highest idealism of human living?
Jesus walked with men in the majesty
of supreme manhood. We look to him
like the painter who kept always in
his studio a set of precious stones. be-
cause he declared he needed them to
refresh his jaded sense of color. Jesus
is the light of the world, as Phillips
Brooks has emphasized, declaring that
the making of the man to be himself:
the call ing up out of the depths of his
being and the filling with vitality of
that self which is truly he, this is sal
walton. and the Christian graces of
highest and fullest manhood, human
courage, human trustiness. human pa
thence, human humility, are nothing but
the natural virtues held up into the
light of Christ; manliness has not been
changed into godliness, but has full
filled itself in g%odliness.
$50 also to Jesus Christ must we
go for the good cheer IN wise opti-
mism of life, for the stimulating hopes
Of time and eternity. If wars are to
cease. if world strifes are to come to
an end, and the spirit of real brother
hood prevail among nations, peoples.
races and religions, then Jesus Christ
must be sought. because in Him is the
teaching of its possibility and its com
mand: in Him is the revelation of the
type of life that fulfills the dream, and
the practical principles whereby such
a heavenly state can come to pass.
And then when life on earth is over,
and the heart hungers for assurance
of its immortality. Jesus whispers to
the dying as well as encourages the
valiant living. that He goes to prepare
a place for us; and where He is there
they shall be also who walk in His
way, possess His spirit. and love His
Father who is in heaven. Thus. through
Christ we rise from the vale
fears. the shadows of dismay. the
of perplexity, into the higher
plains and broader horizons and noun
tain heights of life. To whom else
shall We go?"
