arranged that meeting should take
place at the mans house. Brent's
father was going to sell much Of the
land, which had become burden since
Brent had gone away.
And he arranged the meeting so that
he would be able to meet Brent on his
way home for Christmas.
Brent greeted his father with re-
served affection. $50 you've brought

Brent never brought his violin with
him any more because he would be

There was nothing more said. But
at the next station group Of youths
got on and at once began to play the
mandolins and guitars which they had
with them.
Brent's father nudged him.
"Don't insult me-" Brent whispered
angrily.
No son, only Wondered didn't

said you got your music from me-"
And Brent's father played and be-
came q boy again. All the Christmas
tunes they played-and the people In
the train sang and there was merry
making that recalled TO the aged man
the happy days Of long ago, despite the
fact that his fingers were stiff.
Brent watched at frst, rather dis
gusted at such a display OF friendli-
ness, for many of the people were
strangers, and then he saw his father
eyes and the expression there-the ex-
preston which the music gave him
and which he had denied him. What q
cold, conceited, heartless person he had
been, severe with his parents, keeping
his music solely for pay, denying 1t ia
those whose love and warm sympathy
had given him the talent.
I'VE had music, Christmas music, on
the train" Brent's father told his
mother as they got home.
"And we're going to have 1t here
too" Brent added. "rve made music my
business, but Dad has put music into
his life. And somehow" he added
and his voice hid new affection 10 it
'sthat Christmas music on that dingy
local train. and the singing Of those
CHEEKY people just got at my heart
somehow" he repeated.

WILL PAY FOR NAME

RHINELANDER, Wis, Dec. g.
Officials of the Northern Wisconsin
Resort Association want better
name for that organization. Some
thing broader and more descriptive
is desired. To this end the presi-
dent, William d. Connor, Jr., of La
ona, has authorized contest for a
name land a prize of $25 will be
given to the person making the best
suggestion. Prizes of SIS and $40
will be given for the second and
third best suggestions. Everybody
in Northern Wisconsin is eligible
and there are no conditions attached.
Rules for the contest are being
prepared and printed copies will be
sent to every newspaper in Northern
Wisconsin for free distribution to
those interested.
The reason for getting more
suitable name is due to the fact that
name Resort association" has caus-
ed general misunderstanding as to
it's scope. 1t is not, as President
Connor, himself lumberman, points
out, an organization of resort own
ers, but one planned to be made up
of every citizen in Northern Wiscon-
sin who desire to see this& section de-
velop in every way through modern
methods of organized effort. The
tourist business affords the greatest
opportunity for acquiring new
wealth and interesting new citizens
in this section Of the state, but the
ASSOCIATION will not stop there. Any
activity that is for the general well
fare of the northern half of the state
will be included in the work Of the
organization.
The name of the Minnesota or
ganization, the Ten Thousand Lakes
of Minnesota association, is a splen-
did one and Immediately gives a
pleasant picture to the citizens of
another state, A name is wanted
for the Northern Wisconsin associa-
ton that will be descriptive of this
section, or one that will best state
the purposes of the association.

CHRISTMAS HUMANE
THOUGHT
-

"And laid him in manger."--
st. Luke.
AS we approach the Christmas
time our thoughts naturally turn to
the story Of the Chrsit-child His
humble birth is tale we still love
to hear. The fact that He was born
in manger does not lessen our re-
verence or devotion today any more
than it did twenty centuries ago.
1t is not stretch of idle magma
tion to deduct a humane thought
from this humble birth of the Man
of Galilee. 1t is rather quite con-
sistent with the spirit of that occa-
sion.
Jesus of Nazareth dignifed His
earthly mission with the spirit of
humility. In this He came unto the
lowliest even including our dumb
animals friends. They, also, were
to benefit by His teachings of kind
ness and mercy. For they are crea-
lures Of God and were so recognized
by Him. They were His friends,
like they are the friends and ser
wants of man today.
In Biblical narrative we have ample
illustration Of the place the dumb
holds in the eyes OF its Creator.
Hundreds of animals, fish, and birds,
are referred to by name. Many
volume has been written on the an
imals of the Bible. They are con-
sidered an important part of crea-
ton.
However, the. crule man has not
yet learned this fact. He has as
sumed that his lord llip over the
lower creatures gives him the right
to deal with them as he pleases. If
he wishes to treat them cruelty he
does so; if he has been guilty of neg
lect he has no pangs of conscenice.
No good man is cruel, and no
great man is silent in the fact of
cruelty. Neither has the Christian
civilization advanced far, nor the
spirit of Christmas been fully COM
pretended where cruelty and neglest
of animals is still tolerated.
In the cold winter days ahead the
animal world will look to us for
sufficient feed and shelter. Let us
then observe the teachings of Him
who was born in the manger. For,
inasmurh as we have done so unto
the least of His creatures we have
done so unto Him.
