Regina picked up her AK and with
much dignity swung 1t again.
Il say, there, you-that tree belongs

her.
Regina stopped and turned. "This is
vacant lot" she called out with as
perlty.
The approaching man whistled. Hls
speed quickened. He made an invol-
untary movement to raise a cap that
in his haste he had forgotten to put
on.

gina's face was rather startling in Its
beauty, and he had desire to cover
her embarrassment. II have taken

up at Langhorn.

the safest thing to do for the present.

TO ENFORCE DRY LAW.
Chief Executive Says Conditions of
Enforcement Savor of Nation
wide Scandal.

Washington.-Preside Harding, in
his annual message, delivered to Con-
gress in person, deals with nearly a
score of subjects, chief among them
prohibition, farm credits, the transpor-
tation problem, child labor and immi-
grafton.
President Harding tackled first the
farm problem, recommending credit
legislation by enlarging the powers of
the farm loan board to provide ample
agricultural and live stock production
credits
The executive announced his pur-
pose to invite the governors of the
states and territories to an carly con
ference with the federal executive au-
thority with view to adopting defi-
mite policies of national and state CO.
operation in administering the prohi
bition laws. He says the day is un-
likely to come when the prohibition
amendment will be repealed and that
the nation should adopt it's course ac-
cordingly.
He warned those who evade the pro-
hibition law they are undermining the
moral fiber OF the republic.
He characterized the present en-
forcement as "a nationwide scandal"
and "the most demoralizing factor of
our national life"
More extended credit for the farm
ers is strongly urged by the executive,
who declares that the very proof of
helpfulness already given is the strong
fn ha oct h.
lishment of widened credits. He says
the farm loan bureau may well have
its powers enlarged to provide ample
farm production credits, as well as en-
larged land credits.
More Credit for Farmers.
proposed. One would give Congress
authority over child labor and the 9TH
er would restrict the issue of tax-eX-
empt securities, which are declared to
be drying up the sources of federal
taxation and encouraging unprOductive
and extravagant expenditures by states
and municipalities"
Registration of Aliens.
Enactment of legislation providing
for registration of aliens and for more
thorough examination of emigrants at
the ports of embarkation is urged. The
President says there is a "recrudes-
cence of hyphenated Americanism
which we thought to have been
stamped out when we committed the
nation, life and soul to the World
War" and adds that advocates of rev.
olution are abusing the hospitality of
American shores, Finding their delud-
ed followers among those who take on
the habilaments of an American with
out knowing an American soul"
Registration of aliens, the President
adds, will enable the nation to guard
against abuses in immigration, check
ing the undesirables whose irregular
coming is his first violation of the law
and, at the same time, will facilitate
the needed Americanizing OF those
who mean to enroll as citizens.
Dealing with foreign affairs, Mr..
Harding tells Congress that american
relations are not only free from every
threatening cloud, but the country has
contributed it's larger influence to-
ward making marked conflicts less
likely.
The President pointed to the arms
conference, to the recent Tacna-Arica
conference and to the Central Amer
lean conference now sitting in Wash
ington as evidences of Americas de-

David and Regina were overflowing
with tidings of great joy.
Ihat evening Santa Claus drove up
through the crisp snow and opened

had entered into each heart, David

In the singing of joyous Christmas

It came upon the midnight clear.

Peace on earth. goodwill to men,"
From heavens all-gracious King:
The world In solemn stiffness lay
To hear the angels sing.
stin through the cloven skies they come
With peaceful wings unfurled,
And still their heavenly music floats
Ger all the weary world:
Above its sad and lowly plains
They bend on lowering wing,
And even Ger its Babel-sounds
The blessed angels sing.
Yes. with the woe of Sin and strife,
The world has suffered long;
Beneath the angel-strain have rolled
Two thousand years of wrong;
And man. at war with man. hears not
The love song which they bring:
o., hush the noise, ye men of strife.
And hear the a-:..els sing!
And ye. beneath lifes crushing load.
Whose forms are bending low.
Who toll along the climbing way,
With painful steps and slow
Look now. for glad and golden hours
Come swiftly on the wing:
oh rest beside the weary road
And hear the angels sing!
And this one:
Hark the glad sound! The Savior comes.
The Savior promised long:
Let every heart prepare throne
And every voice a song!
He comes, the prisoners to release.
In Satan's bondage held;
The gates of brass before him burst,
The iron fetters yield.
He comes, the broken heart to find
The bleeding soul to cure.
And with the treasures of His grace
To enrich the humble poor.

Thy welcome shall proclaim
And heavens eternal arches ring
With Thy beloved name.
But even Christmas tree celebra-
tion must come to an end. By and by
the children were sung out and the
fires began to get low and the voices
of Regina and David trailed off into
silence, and the two just looked at
each other.
Don't you think we'd better take
the children in now?" said Regina
at last. "The fires are getting low"
David was silent for long mo-
ment. Then he said slowly and rev.
erently:
