is a rather unfortunate thing that a

I TO undertake to remove this supposi-

Up 10 the present time. perhaps.

seriously as 7 should have done. hut
n would seem TO me- that a man
who would do anything in opposi-
tion 20 education would surely find
himself IN a hopeless minority and
especially coming from a man who
has earned by hard work the money
with which to educate himself
Il am heartily in favor of educa-

posed TO extravaganza. whether it
is my own funds that are being ex-
pended or the funds OF the state.

purposes and the amounts received |
from each last year. believe IN /

Mr. Nelson here quoted the fig
ures he has received from the au-
ditor's Office and they showed a
grand total OF s2.OOs.O4S.13 az the
income for schools last year. He
said the auditor estimates that these
revenue sources will not produce
more than S2.1OO.OOO this year and
perhaps not more than $4,000. 900.
The school people are asking for
70, 500 900 for next year and So
1000 600 for the following year"
continued Mr.. Nelson. This is Just
Il 100000 more than all the rev

folks enough who'd be willing to take
day until the winter breaks. Seems
to me"-here his big. rumbling voice

Baby who came this day, nearly two
thousand year ago, meant for folks
to remember their brothers in the

see US givin' thought to 'em. Who

In the scheme of things as we are.
And Christmas will last beyond one
day. 1 thank you for listenin' to me-"
Old Solomon sat down. Immediately
there was a quick, light clapping of
appreciation.
Christmas day saw the community
tree set up In a farmers pasture. 1t
was gayly trimmed with bright rib
bons, popcorn and bits of food. Five
boys shoveled away the snow around
the base. Hay was brought; boards
were laid on the ground for grain and
other scraps. Never had the village
such fun. When things were all in
place, they formed a circle around the
tree and sang a carol. Old Solomon
sang the loudest. His face beamed
with happiness. And If you'll believe
it. no less than ten people invited him
to dinner that day.
1t was a glorious Christmas. And
not only did the spirit of love and
good cheer fly about that day, but con-
tinued for weeks. Every day someone
went to the community tree and
trimmed II with fresh bits OK meat and
suet. 1t grew famnrs. bird lovers
