XMAS BOOKS FOR CHILDREN

With Christmas but a few weeks
away, we are wondering what books
We should give to our little people.
~Children's books for Christmas
presents" may answer this question.
The list is arranged in three groups
Picture books and other books for
little children. books for young child
ren and books for older boys and
girls The publisher and price is
given for each title, and in some cases
several prices are given that ore may
buy one TO suit his purse. Each
title is followed BY few lines telling
what the book is about.
Ten of those books are listed for
less than one dollar, sixty for be-
tween one and two dollars The list
has been made by the American Lii
brary Association and the books are
those which you may safely give
away.
This list may be had by sending
two cents in stamps to the Library of
the State Agricultural College, Fort
Collins, Colorado.

A FEW IDEAS FOR THE
REMEMBERING OF OTHERS
AT CHRISTMAS TIME

In planning for Christmas, 1t is
well not to overlook the poor and
needy, to say nothing of the shut-in
or lonely. Very few of US stop to
think until too late of some one in
our neighborhood or town to whom
a small favor or a bit of unexpected
kindness is always appreciated, and
at Christmas time it is more SO, since
the joy Of others always brings home
more keenly ones own loneliness or
misfortune.
There are any number of ways one
can go about it without causing the
person receiving the favors to feel
embarrassed or under obligations.
For the shut-i who likes to read,
a pile Of magazines or book or two
will give pleasure. We know of one
lady whose family takes five current
magazines year after year. When
read, they are put away until just
before Christmas, whep they are at
tractively tied up in bundles, leach
bundle holding the complete number
of one title). These bundles are then
wrapped in holly paper, fastened with
a dainty card and presented to some
shut-in or some one who loves to read
but cannot afford to buy much litera-
ture. These magazines are always
enjoyed.
Then there is an old lady who likes
to sew or "piece quilts" A number
Of envelopes holding patterns cut
from needlework magazines that you
have collected and the name of the
contents written plainly on the out
side Of the envelope flap and pasted
into . scrap book makes q good al
bum Of fancy work for friend, and
should b given with = good supply
Of material for making some Of the
articles described in the envelopes.
For instance, sizeable scraps Of calico,
gingham, psrcale and any wash goods

did success they had at their bazaar,

ing the Republican office. For three

the store was visited by patrons to
secure the beautiful and useful articles
in needlework. A food and candy
sale was held in connection and on
Saturday evening, the ladies served
an appetizing chicken supper in the
dining hall of the /. o. o. F. building,
The town and his wife were there, ut
least it looked that way, the dining
room being packed several times be-
fore all has been served. The St.
Regis football team and the Gunni-
son squad, were given first serving,
the boys being guests of the knights
of Columbus. The ladies cleared q
very large sum this year.

FIND PUT-AND-TAKE GAME

If the police department had extra
men out last night to keep Washing
ton bone dry during the New Year
the usual amount of intoxication and
bootlegging, judging from the num-
ber of persons arrested. Thirty-nine
men and women ran afoul of the law
prohibiting drunkenness, and one lone
raid netted the prohibition enforce
ment squad a negro youth and one
half gallon of whisky. For the week
end, seventy-three persons were ar
rested on charges of intoxication, and
custody for various violations of the
national dry laws.
Two of these were charged with
operating a motor vehicle while under
the influence of liquor, fifteen for
drinking in public places, and the re-
mainder for illegal possession and un-
lawful sale of intoxicants. the charges
that are always preferred against boot
leggerS.
This is a slight increase in the num-
Der of persons taken into custody for
breaking the prohibition statutes, but
unusually hot campaign against such
violations during the last week.
Judging from reports obtained from
every precinct in the city last night
was probably the tamest New Year eve
Washington has ever seen. The infor-
nation sheet distributed daily from the
office of Mai. Sullivan, which usually
occupies three closely typewriter
pages, required less than one-half a
page this morning. 1t showed total
oil ak, O
o'clock yesterday morning until 8
o'clock this morning. OF these. TWEEN
ty-two were charged with speeding and
twenty-siX with other traffic violations.
One person was arrested under the
narcotic act.
Just after the wistle had finished
welcoming the baby year, Patrolmen
Jackson and Morrow and Prohibition
Agent Evans swooped down on the
Port Arthur restaurant, 515 9Th street
northwest, and arrested two men and
two women on charges of drinking
in public place. They were the only
celebrants arrested in a raid. Four
other men were found playing put
and take" in an automobile at 18TH
street and Pennsylvania avenue, put
this was not construed as constitut-
ing a raid. After each had put" $25
collateral at the first precinct station
he was permitted to go home.
At 18th street and Columbia road
northwest a policeman OF the tenth
precinct found four men in full even
ing dress, from gray spats to silk
top hats, blowing off some of their
anti-Volstead steam in the form OF
''close harmony" When the police
man suggested in vain that the quar-
tet should hire a hall, he took them
to the station house, where they were
required to post collateral. That
about ended the New Year celebration
so far as the police department was
concerned.

NEW YORK. January 1.-Alexander
Carr. who starred in Potash and
Perlmutter," and now is appearing in
a similar production at Chicago, has
been made the defendant in a $50, 900
breach of promise suit brought by his
divorced wife. Mrs. Mary Carr. it was
disclosed yesterday. The suit is based
on charges that Carr, after having
been divorced from his wife, proposed
to her again, and was accepted.
thereafter inducing her to sign a pa
per which she thought a deed to their
Rockville Center. L. l., home. but
which, in reality, was a release of
claim to $17,933 alimony, in which

yells were deafening. forIas they came
in the participants all wanted to
rush through the fire at once. But
there were scores of mem to hold them
back, and let only a few in the pit at
a time If they were all allowed to
rush in as they wished.i some would
be sure to lose their fopting, fall on
the Goals, and be trampIed and burn
ed to death. We read hpw in Christ's
time demoniacs walked through the
fire without hurt, and As I watched
these poor heather 1t really seemed
that some of them werei SO possessed
of the devil that they did not even
feel the heat of the live Goals upon
which they stepped.
Stuck Pins I'm Bodies.
"First came the men. Some walked
deliberately. Some hurried. Some
seemed unhurt as they stepped into
the milk and water, but some faint
ed. One man noticed in particular.
He walked through and then came
back up one side and ddwn the other
before stepping out intp the cooling
liquid. In the throng WE'RE some who
had long pins thrust through their
tongues; others had long needles
thrust through one cheek and out
through the other. OF course this was
to appease the wrath of the gods or
to court their special favor. Then
came some men with pins in their
bodies, stuck through the flesh and
then out again. Some had hundreds
stuck all over their bodies, some at
random, others in the form of de-
signs. Toward the last came men
who carried large arches Of flowers
weighing all Of twentyl pounds sup
ported over their heads by hooks
buried in the flesh jubt below the
shoulders
"After the men had passed the
women came. Some went through
without fiinching, but rl1any were on
the verge of faintinE before they
reached the fire, and larger numbers
tainted as they came out at the
farther end One womars stumbled and
fell full length in the fire, but men
nearby rushed to the rescue"
