TIE FEAST
OF LIGHTS

T HE lights on the tree are said to
" be Of Jewish origin. In the
month of Kislev, of the Jewish
year, spending nearly TO our De-
cember, and the twenty-fifth day, Jews
celebrated the feast of dedication OF
their temple. II had been dedicated on
that day by Antiochus. 1t was dedicated
by Judas Maccabeus, and. according to
Jewish legend, sufficient oil was found
In the temple TO last for the seven
branched candlestick for eight days,
and II would have taken eight days to
prepare new oil Accordingly the Jews
were wont on the twenty-fifth day OF
Klslev In every house to light can
die, on the next day two, and on the
the eighth and last day of the feast,
eight candles twinkled in every house.
1t is not very easy to fix the ex-
act date of the Nativity, but it fell
most probably on the last day Of Kis-
lev, when every Jewish house in Beth
iehem and Jerusalem was twinklIng
with lights. 1t is worthy Of note that
the German name for Christmas is
Welhnacht (the night Of dedication),
as though Ii were associated with this
feast. The Greeks also call Christ
mas the feast Of lights, the name
given to the dedication festival, Chan
nkah, by the Jews.

WHY THE CHRISTMAS KlSSES7
Oscillation, Allowed by custsm, cele-
brates One Of Most Charming
Events in Tradition.

TH1 HY should men kiss girls who
WI stand under mistletoe?
Because they like 1t and be-
cause custom allows 1t. Every kiss
under the mistletoe, however is a kiss
which celebrates one of the most
charming events In Christmas tradi-
ton.
The romance goes back TO the days
Of the gods of Scandinavia, when Bal
dur the Beautiful was shot by Locke,
the Spirit Of Evil, with an arrow of
mistletoe. But his mother Venus OF
the North, restored him to life by sa-
luting with kisses all who passed be-
meath branch held aloft in her hand.
Thus It became an emblem of love
and happy celebration Ancient races
held the plant in great veneration, par
ticularly the Drulds. who went in pro-
cession into the forests to collect 1t.
After New Years day 1t was dis
tributed among the people as sacred
and holy plant. II any part Of the
mistletoe touched the ground il was
regarded as an omen OF impending
evil.

CAMP SITE GIFT FOR SCOUTS

TO their gift Of twenty acres OF
camping ground on beautiful Lake
Undertook, to boy scouts of Albany,
Mr.. and Mrs. George c. Hawley Of
that city have added $1,000 to be used
in improving the property. The land
which was formerly the site of large
hotel is ideally located for scout
camp. The officials of the council plan
to erect a mess shack, with kitchen
and storeroom, lavatOry building, a
pump-hOuse and a small boat house
Two wells are being driven to provide
fresh water for the scouts. A diving
tower will also be put in place. Mr.
and Mrs. Hawley will erect a fine
iron fence around the property, and
also handsome memorial gate of
Connecticut granite. The work on the
Improvements will be begun at once
and ii Is hoped the camp viii be com
pleted soon. The camp will be opened
to scouts for six weeks, and it is ex-
pected that rs boys will be accom-
modated each week. After the clos
ing OF the season, the camp will be
opened each weekend the year round
for members of the Albany council

MILWAUKEE SCOUTS GOOD TURN

Here is a Milwaukee scouts report
Of recent good turn "While going

and his muscles were stiffening with
coming death. He was lying on his
back. ! kneeied over him, forced
open his mouth, pulled out his tongue
placed pencil across his month and
let his Jaws close. This kept his
tongue from falling back into his
throat and kept his mouth open. /
then applied the Schaeffer method of
resuscitation. After 10 minutes of
artificial respiration the dog began to
show signs of life. The eyes no long
er bulged and his heart beat normal
ly. About Is minutes later | stopped
and again the dog breathed alone, but
seemed unable to rise After exami-

THINGS THE BOYS LONG FOR
Youngsters Prefer Toys or contriv-
anees to Test Their Muscular Skill
or Endurance.

VIZ HAT shall be said Of that blum
w dering kindness Of home folk
that considers giving the boy only
presents OF such things as he actu-
ally needs? Ii Is an outrage upon
the spirit of Christmas to present him
with new shoes, ties. handkerchief
something that he knows he will get
anyway his sleeping and wax
ing dreams for weeks before have been
filed with visions of tops. balls, guns
and magic lanterns, says Maud Sou
ders in the Woman's Home COmpan-
ion. The most beautiful knitted muf-
fee wOman's fingers ever constructed
cannot compare with a jack-knife with
four blades and a cork-screw attach
ment, when exhibited over the back
fence to neighbor boy on Christmas
morning. Very soon after the days
of kits a boy reaches the age when
he yearns with his whole soul after
any toy or contrivance that will test
his muscular skill or endurance. At
this age an appropriate present would
be rawhide or rope lariat, such as
is used by the Buffalo Bill riders. A
pair of hand or arm stills will be re
ceived with equal favor, and in the
same category comes a new fishing
rod, snow shoes, tennis racket, golf
clubs, good ball, lamp or cyclometer
for his wheel. or even a live pet.
new dog. a pair of rabbits or guinea
pigs-something that he can pet and
train for his own.

MAKE GOOD SEA SCOUTS

Ship ahoyl The boy scout move
ment has extended its activities TO the
sea. 1t is not only navigating blind
trails through the deep woods but also
navigating the trailless deep Of the
ocean itself Instead of studying the
use of an ak the scouts are learning
what a marin-spike is and how to han
die it with the dizziness of an old-time
salt water tar; instead of overnight
hikes, they are planning overnight
cruises in boats loaned for the purpose
by the United States Navy department.
The seascouting department Of the
Boy Scouts OF America is fast getting
to be an important and "A most pictur-
esque phase Of the work which is
more and more attracting the spirit
of adventure which is in all boys.
To be eligible for this organization
boys have to be little older and
little heavier than for the land work.
They must be fifteen years or over
and must weigh at least 112 pounds.
There are three national sea scout
camps in the United States: Marion,
Mass. Chicago, H., and Portland, Ore
The largest camp. that at Marion,
Mass, on the grounds of Tabor
academy on Buzzards bay accom-
modates 100 boys. Here, as in the
other camps, the scouts will be given
an intensive drill of from two TO four
weeks, With cruises along shore in
various kinds of boats, thorough train
ing in every kind of swimming and
life saving and other forms of real
salt water stuff Acting chief seascout
of the Boy Scouts of America. Capt

charge.

In discussing the Hague conference
this morning the Times agrees with Sec
retary Hughes that 1t is only continual
ton Of the Genoa conference, and pays
a growing tribute to America for her az
titude toward Bolshevism, which "has
been firm. ligical and honest" 1t says
that the four months truce fought to
see the world through most of the favor
ite fighting months of the year."
THE truth is" the Times continues,
that the American Government and the
American people, with all their tradi-
tiona! sympathy with the Russian peo-
pie, see that the Russian problem and
the European problem Of which it is a
part are not to be solved by sentiment
and equivoca. agreements of sonorous
phrases. America sees their re-
ality, and does not finch from facing
their natural and necessary conse-
quences."
The Daily Telegraph sees a possibility
of The Hague succeeding where Genoa
failed. 1t says that Mr.. Lloyd George
has had thigh and worthy aims and
worked for them through six arduous
weeks with energy. courage and re-
sourcefuiness which will be appreciated
and admired by the majority Of his
countrymen. Failure-if II can be
called failure--of the conference is due

Speaking of The Hague. the Tele-
1rdph says: I'VE can only hope the
American Secretary of State is taking
too gloomy view when he suggests that
The Hague will only be Genoa under
another name" and in summing US 1t
says that IL Genoa could have given de-

to that of Washington. THAT Is what
Mr.. Lloyd George wanted. and Mr.. Lloyd

The Wetminster Gazette regrets that
France docs not yet understand Mr..
Lloyd George as we have learned to

in him a man of the same mind as the
