CHRISTMAS
BY Jatsc J.. Bernheise'
The wtnDry winds went shricktnS by
With mournful piercing sound
Ana everywhere the fall OF SNOW
liad covered W tho ground.
The night was dark. tire air was cold,
Few people bravcd the storm
But rather stayed within their homes
Where IL was nice and warm.
Although the nisht was hcrce and Wild.
Yet many hearts were say.
For with the morrow tnerc would be
The joys u Christmas Ira".
The Anniversary OF the tim"
when Jesus Christ Was borm.
Ana many hearts looked forWa'd %
The pleasures Of that morn.
Bu. down IN" street ther" was nor.
Whore horos were not SO brisl';
tn" room was dimly l!ghtod BY
\ hiCk' ring candle light;
\ f"cble mother, p-le cNd worn
Was pressin. to her brcas
a little soul. her precious GirI,
OF all she had--the best.
Svee, thoughts OF aops and happues.
Had Grpped that little mind,
For she had heard Of Santa CLAUS.
Who was 20 good ind hind.
she ASKED ter mother II 'twors lIu.
That there was on" good.
So kind 20 leave Gift for her,
A shed been told he would.
TIE rothc-. knowing well her mind
Did no, know what 10 say,
But just al ahe had always done,
Sho then began TO pray:
20 Lord. 7 want u-u!ht for nrsef
Put sond this child OF Thine
\ JOY that on this Christmas DAY
Eili make h9- bright face shine"
40 sooner had rhc made tnat prayer
Than AZ their little door,
A gentle tappirg sound was heard
Just tWice. and then no more
The mother hurried cross the room
with that dull candle light;
She quicldv fung the door ajar.
Tut no one was In sight.
She saw package there;
Twas wr .pped in white. sne p!cScd II up-
The answer to her prayer.
Again shs lifted up her face
And heart TO God above
To thank HIM FOR that Christmas Joy
And Ills unerd!ng love.

With n dclicacy rare in these inquisi-

TO the Editor Of the Erch,r0 Public Lcd0er'
Sir-When necessity reduces US to

our sacred liberty is the cause. Democ-
racy is pro!ifcally breeding us despots.
When its servants grow powerful with
the shouldering Of added duties, we are
constrained 10 consult their leisure in
many Of our greater needs, When the
servant becomes the master. never was
there such n master, and woe betide US
in the outcome.
Tho corrupt manners Of our time are
worthy partners 10 corrupt opinions.
We shuddcr to note tho meek compli-
nncc of our elders 10 colossal aggrcga-
tious of business interests. supposedly
bcnpti,ing rh" community at large.
1t is Il conspiracy against the State
when our servants agree not to dis
agree. and with competition, our safe
guard, murdered, We are prepared for
the slaughter.
All our srrvUors should vie with
each other in the quality Of th"ir min
istrationS. and our health is best when
their enthusiasm is the keenest.
speak quietly and cautiously in this
matter as merits its seriousness by
this to capture q tranquility Of mind
which will give thoughts due moment

scotch proposed mergers now or never.
