ADVICE, SENATE PAGES

WASHINGTON, Dec. 24-Although
the rules prevent VicePresident
Dawes from addressing the United
States Senate, he found a forum,
THE Little Senate" an organization
of the pages, who had adopted
Dawes rules and changes and the
boys heard the President.
Laying aside his pipe, Vice fresi-
dent Dawes urged the boys not to
smoke, swear, chew or become hip
flask boys, II they wished to amount
to something.
BE clean. Be yourself. Stand
against the crowd. There is no man
worth the powder to shoot or blow
up who does not set himself against
the crowd, especially the younger
life" said the Vice President.

Dunder and Bitten
To Really Appear
In Eastern Cities

Who says there isn't any Santa
Claus?
For the first time as far as is
known, Old St. Nick himself an
nounced to appear from Nome, AL
aska, his headquarters, is going to
be right in the streets Of number
OF the largest cities in the United
States tonight, skimming behind his
reindeer, in his sled with it's full
pack of toys and beautiful gifts for
the children.
He sent word to the children
over a month ago from his head
quarters at Nome, and by actual
count mailed 10000 letters to the
youngsters in all the cities in which
he will appear.
This is no tomfoolery. It's really
going to happen tonight, Christmas
Eve, and it was brought about by
an advertising firm in New York
City.
The result OF the efforts OF the
advertising Arm are that a rew
weeks ago a newspaper at Cleveland,
one OF the cities to be visited, sent
10000 letters addressed to children
in the II cities where Santa Claus
will visit, to Nome and they were
remaiied from that point, bearing
the Nome post mark. The letter
heads read Nome, headquarters OF
Santa Claus" and each letter an
nouncing his arrival in the city
where each child lives, on Christmas
Eve, is signed by Santa Claus.
Shortly after the letters were
mailed out rs live reindeer were
shipped on the freighter Nebesna
from Nome to the States. These
have been distributed to the var
ious cities and will draw, the sleds
carving Santa Claus and his pack
tonight.
cities where he will appear in
the streets for the children are;
Boston, Philadelphia, Cleveland
DAYTON, Chicago. Detroit, st. Louis
Kansas City, Los Angeles. San Fran
cisco and Portland.
Since November l, one newspaper
in each of these cities has printed
stories of the coming of Santa Claus
Christmas Eve for the beneht OF
the children. The merchants, or
ganizations, etc, have taken 1t w
and added to it until 1T is esti'
mated at least one million children
know of the anticipated visit and
it has become one of the blgges'
parts Of the Christmas events te
them.

Stock and Range Good
In Northern Arizona

Despite continued drouth in
Southeastern Arizona, the range
has improved, owing to favorable
temperature conditions, but stock
losses are still heavy. In South
western New Mexico no improve
ment of ranges has occurred and
losses of cattle are increasing. In
Santa Cruz county, Arizona, and
adjacent territory, stock and range
conditions are also very poor. Light
showers occurred in the vicinity of
Flagstaff and Williams, but were
not sufficient to cause any i'm
proYement of range and water con-
ditiOns. Owing to former rains,
pastures and browse in Northern
trail Arizona are showing consider
able improvement. Grass is begin
ming to grow in Northwestern New
Mexico and the water supply is re-
ported plentiful. The range is
good in the Pinedale and White
river sections, fair in the Grand
Canyon, Williams, Prescott and
Holbrook sections, and poor in the
Douglas, Thatcher, Nogales and
Fort Bayard sections and improv-
ing in the vicinity of Gamerco, N.
M. Stock is poor in the Grand
Canyon, Prescott, Douglas, Thatch-
er, Nogales and Fort Bayard Sec
lions and fair in all other sections
except good in the Pinedale section.
Water is low at Holbrook, Douglas,

shortest road.
Many people still continue to take
