Well, he had nothing to give. Then he
stopped short-he had his topl
The next Sunday morning a little
boy in a threadbare suit slipped
quietly into a back pew of the great
church. He carried with him an odd
ly-shaped package, which he fingered
lovingly all through the service. Then
the organ played softly and he could
hear the cllnk OF the money as it fell
into the collection plate. He held the
precious package close to him-the
plate was coming nearer-it had
passed into the next pew-now 1t had
reached him, He heard the package
drop with a dull thud into the plate.
Then he leaned back, unmindful Of
the curious glances in his direction.
A little. quivering sigh escaped his
lips; but his eyes we're bright and
there was something glad in his heart.

ORIGINAL SANTA CLAUS

He Is believed to have been ST
Nicholas, bishop in the year 300. He
was famous for his kindness to chill
dren- 1t is said that one night, wish
Ing to help a nobleman who was SO
poor that he had no money for his
daughters dowry, the good bishop
looked in at the old mans window and
saw him asleep by the fire. He then
climbed upon the roof and dropped a
gold piece down the chimney, thinking
that 1t would fall upon the hearth.
But 1t fell instead In one of the gentle
mans stockings, which his daughter
had hung up to dry beside the fire.
This started the custom of hanging
stockings over the fireplace and the
legend Of Santa coming down the
chimney.

WILL FATTEN COYOTES

Picture postal cards were received
here Saturday from Jesse Mullinev Of
The Rocks. on the Jordan Valley
road. showing "a coyotes that Mr.
Mullenix has in captivity there. The
animals are the net result OF an
autumn trapping campaign. At pre-
sent Mr.. Mullenix is feeding his coy
otes horse flesh to prepare the furs
for highest prices. Information is
not available here relative to the flu
ture plans OF Mr.. Mullenix but it is
assumed that he proposes starting a
coyote fur farm. Coyote furs are
high priced at present and the bounty
added to the fur return makes the
venture one OF considerable cash re-
turn.

CHICAGO CHILDREN WIN

Chicago street children know more
about candy than any other children
residing in Caldwell, il was discovered
Saturday when Cakes Bros. weighed
up their big stick that has been at
tracing so much attention in their
Christmas window the past week.
The stick weighed precisely p pounds
and o ounces. Roger HURT. young
son OF Mr.. and Mrs X. T. Hurtt. and
Edna Mitchell. daughter OF Mr. and
Mrs. Luther Mitchell. came nearest
that total. Each missed the correct
weight by only one ounce and each.
as a consequence. is richer by II
pounds OF candy than they were pre-
viously Mr. Hurts guess was p
pounds. ) ounces, while little Miss
Mitchell estimated the weight at p
pounds. J ounces. The two children
are neighbors on Chicago street.

Federal Farm Loan
Board Not Arbitrary

Washington-Federal board assured
Senator Gooding that the land bank
at Spokane will not be unreasonable
n its demands upon Idaho farmers
who have payments falling due about
now. While the board takes the po-
sition that loans must be repaid, II
does not approve the arbitrary an
louncement recently made in idaho
hat payments must be made inimedi-
ately or else the government will
foreclosure The board at Washington
S entirely willing that the farmers
shall have an opportunity to dispose
Of their crops in an orderly way and
to the best possible advantage to
themselves, before being compelled
20 meet their obligations TO the land
bank But while disposed TO be leni-
ent in this respect, the board does
insist that payments must be made
promptly after crops have been mar
<eied. Members OF the board with
whom Senator Gooding has talked
believe this consideration is due the
farmers; on the other hand, they in
list that the farmer in return, must
ecognize his obligation to the govern
nent.

HOLLY AND MIsTLEToE

Holly grows in almost every coun.
try, and because of its thorns and its
blood-red berries was associated, GEN.
turies ago, with the Passion of Christ.
Mistletoe, which grows on oak trees,
used TO be held sacred by pagans be.
cause the oak was supposed to be the
symbol Of their god, Thor. At the
time Of the great pagan winter festi-
walls II was customary to decorate with
all kinds Of green things. When peo-
pie became Christians they held onto
some OF the old customs and continued
70 decorate their homes and places
OF worship with greenery. Holly.
which was easily secured at Christmas
time, naturally became n favorIte. and
the mistletoe failed TO be forgotten.
though IT Is not used ia churches be-
cause IL was once 30 closely allied
With pagan ceremonies.

each bank carried in its own vaul,
the cash required by law as a legal
reserve so that it would be ready to
pay depositors on demand. The gold
supply OF the country was thus scat
tered among thousands OF Independent
banks.
When Fire RACES
This situation may be likened to
the old-time water supply In a town.
Each house had to depend on its in
dividual well. tank. or cistern. Pho
ture such a town attacked by fire. II
the water was low In one well. from
drought. or excessive use. water
would have to be borrowed from q
neighboring we'll Suppose the water
IN that well also was at a low level.
Thus the safety OF all was sacrificed
because no RESERVE water supply
was at hand. The fire would become
a confiagration.
Under the Federal Reserve System.
we have a series OF modern reservoirs,
located in various parts OF the coun-
try. each serving the needs OF the
banks In its own district In each OF
these reservoirs credit Is stored up to
be supplied to the various banks, as
the need arises. Each reservoir IS
In turn connected with all the others
so that when the supply in one be
comes low. the others may be tenn
porarily drawn upon. BY gathering
the gold reserves OF the member
banks into the twelve Federal Re
serve banks. a result has been OBJ
tanned like that yielded by the con-
struction OF great city water supply
Each member bank formerly had to
depend almost entirely upon its own
resources in making loans to Its Gus
toners. When 1t had loaned all OF its
own money. Il could do no more, even
though the merchant. manufacturer.
or farmer customer had great need |
OF more credit. and was seeking It |
for highly important and necessary |
purposes. Hence arose what was
called tight money" situation. Now
the member bank can. and frequently
does take the notes OF its customers
TO the Federal Reserve bank. and /
borrows there In much the same way
rs the customer borrows from the
member bank.
This reserve-storing and loaning
work OF the Reserve System is only
part Of the wonderful protection and
service IT is rendering the nation.
