Children-especially those of kin
dergarden and primary school ages
love to make ornaments for the
Christmas tree and even house decora-
tions. No matter how simple, any
thing made by their own hands is
more attractive to the little tots than
the most lavish bought" things.
Of many things the easiest to make
and the prettiest are the chains made
of links of colored paper. Strips of
the paper three-quarters of an inch
wide and three inches long are used
for the links. All children like to use
paste, which is essential in the manu-
facture of the gay colored bits, and
will enjoy watching the chain grow.
These chains may be used effectively
on the tree or may be festooned about
the house.
Cornucopias, too, are fascinating
things for little hands to develop. The
triangular sheet of colored paper is
easily formed into cone when filled
with candies and suspended by bit
of cord or ribbon from branch of the
tree will prove never ending source
of delight to its maker.

ing up" said the office boy dejectedly,
to the president. "When I say you're
out they simply say they must see
you"
"Well," said the president, "just tell
them, that's what they all say"
That afternoon there called at the
office a young lady. The boy assured
her it was impossible to see the pres
ident.
"But I'm his wife," said the lady.
ooh, that's what they all say" said
the boy.

FUNDS FROM XMAS
SEAL SALE BRING
JOY TO CHILDREN

Funds from the annual tubercu-
losis Christmas seal sale, which is
now in progress, has been instrument
tai in bringing much happiness into
the lives of tubercular children and it
is hoped that an even larger fund may
be raised this year than last to con-
tinue and enlarge the health pro-
gram" declares Mrs. G.. E. Thompson,
county chairman of the sale COM
mittee.
The little seals are sold to raise
money to carry on the fight against
tuberculosis and in that way are of
unlimited Importance. Everybody
should feel that their value as a medi-
UNI of health education is almost as
great as their value in money-mak-
ing way.
Christmas seals are decorations that
mean more than pretty sentiment or
artistic ornamentation. They mean aid
| for others and protection for our chill
dren and many others less fortunate
than ourselves. The purpose of these
seals make them most fitting decora-
tions for Christmas parcels. To do
good to others is teaching of Him the
Christmas season celebrates. The
good the purchase Of Christmas seals
will do in restoring Of health and
disease prevention is inestimable.

European Artist Condemns
American Decorations

r ARON DOBLHOFF, one of
= the worlds foremost portrait
painters, on sailing back to
Europe after painting President
Coolidge's portrait which he has
just completed, left behind him a
sweeping accommodation of Ameri-
can houses. Il have seen many
of your fine residences in America.
To enter one is to enter all. They
.re invariably characterized by
iresome monotony of wall surface
which makes them all alike"
Perhaps the Baron's criticism is
well founded in so far as houses
which were decorated several years
ago are concerned. 1t is regrettable,
however, that the Baron could not
have visited some of the smarter
American homes decorated recently.
American people themselves have
sensed the drabness and monotony
of wall treatments which character
lied the period of ultra simplicity
in decorating SO prevalent during
the years Immediately following the
war. 1t was therefore, only natural
that leading American architects
and decorators practically have aban-
doned the plain wall treatments and
are introducing colorful variety by
means of the countless designs
available to them in wallpapers and
decorative fabrics. The range of
decorative possibilities particularly
in wallpapers is so limitless that
the American housewife and decor
ator are reveling in their use.

Noted Clergymen Praise or Flay
Kpling's Conception of Heaven

principle by praying on the. cross
for the forgiveness of those who
had betrayed and slain Him, since
they knew not what they did, and
by promising the thief, who was
crucified with Him, that he would
be received with Him into Paradise.
1t is not conceivable that Jesus
would have excluded from His
prayer even the traitor Judas.
klpllng has seen this with fine in
sight into the mind of Christ. Will
the day ever come when the world
will understand and strive to prac-
( ice this TRUTH"
DIR. Joseph Fort Newton, Rector
of the Memorial Church of St. Paul,
Philadelphia, Pa, says: "The sug-
gestion which Kipling makes is very
wonderful and has been, part Of
my religious faith for many years.
Without it should have very little
heart to go ahead. Only a few men
in every age have held that faith.
Both Tennyson and Browning re-
joiced in it, as did Canon Farrar
and dear Phillips Brooks. At last
perhaps, we may see what Chris
tianity really is"
The stand of those attacking Kip
ling's portrayal of Heaven in "The
Gate, is summed up by DIR. John
Roach Straton, of Calvary Baptist
Church, New York City.
g.. I do not believe that Judas
will ever see Heaven" says DR..
Straton. "Jesus Christ referred to
him as the son of perdition', and
it is further declared in Holy Writ
that he went to his own place..
With the hell in his heart that led
him to betray the Son of God, that
place certainly could never be Gods
Eternal Home, into which, accord
ing to Scripture, There shall in no
wise enter anything that defiles,
neither whatsoever worketh abomi-
nation nor maketh a lie, but they
which are written in the Lambs
Book of Life
g.. It is not true that God is
la good-natured old grandmother,
pampering and spelling the children
and dealing with them on the basis.
THAT anything goes. No! God is
the Mighty Ruler of the whole vast
universe and while a rainbow of
love surrounds His Throne, Its
foundations are righteousness and
TRUTH"
White Bluffs spokesman. [volume] (White Bluffs, Wash.) 1907-1938, 1926-06-11

Has Judas been received into
heaven? This is the question raised
by Rudyard Kipling in his latest
story, "The Gate. AS result of
this, the famous English author has
started new controversy. Some of
the country's most noted clergymeni
are praising Kipling's conception OF
the Divine mercy, while others,
equally famous, are attacking it.
In "The Gate, appearing in the
June number Of McCalps Magazine,
Kipling draws a moving and pow
erful picture Of the Hereafter, as
affected by the World War. He
pictures a boundless charity and an
utter compassion as ruling there.
So merciful is his conception OF
Heaven that he finds a place there
for Judas Iscariot himself.
Speaking of Kipling's conception,
DR.. Newell Dwight Hills, Pastor
Emeritus of Plymouth Church,
Brooklyn, says, in part:
"Should the time ever come !.
when any doer of evil, no matter
how named whether demon or
man, turns right about face, revolts
from selfishness, turns his back
upon the Arctics of evil and marches
towards the Tropics Of goodness
and love, the future holds a hope
that can never be described in col
ors too rich. For God is kinder
than the kindest, better then the
best, full of pity and forgiveness,
with mercy quite beyond anything
that mans intellect can describe or
his imagination conceive"
DR.. Samuel Trexler, President Of
the Lutheran Synod of New York
and New England, says:
"Mr. Kipling's phantasy has abb
sorbing interest especially because
it deals with fundamental longingss
concerning the mercy Of God and
the mysteries of the life after
this =. The answer to these
longings is in Christ who reveals
the mercy Of God to be even wider
than Kipling has pictured it-1more
than we are able to ask or think.
The logical and essential condition
is that man accepts the Hand that
is offered to him. This was true
of Judas and it is true today"
So profoundly stirring is Kip
ling's treatment Of his subject that
the differences Of opinion do not at
all follow the lines Of creed.

WS>C. Man Finds New Y
Scale Treatment

WASHINGTON STATE COLLEGE.
Pullman.-A treatment for European
Brown Scale, a plant pest which has
attracted considerable attention in
the vicinity of Seattle during the past
months, has been worked out by R. L.
Webster, head of the zoology depart
ment of the State College and en-
tomologist for the experiment station.
| The disease is new one for the
state, and so tar has been found only
in the western part. 1t Is said that it
was introduced from Europe to British
| Co umbia some twenty years ago. and
| apparently has slowly extended it's
range into Washington, attracting lit
tie attention, however, until this sea-
| son.
According to Mr.. Webster, 1t can be
only matter of conjecture what the
result of the spread of the disease
into the fruit regions of Central and
Eastern Washington would be. The
insect Is known to affect wide vari-
.ety OF 1000 and shade trees, includ-
ing apple, pear, plum and cherry, as
well as alder, dogwood, elm, maple,
oak, pop.ar, and willow trees.
| A spray of nicotine-soap solution is
advised by DR.. Webster for controlling
the insect, the spray to be used as
soon as the eggs hatch. He points
out that it is important to determine
as fully as possible the distribution of
this insect within the boundaries of
the state and twigs of shade or fruit
trees supposed to be infected will be
examined upon request if sent to the
Department Of Zoology, State College
of Washington, Pullman. A detailed
formula for spray and other informa-
ton may also be secured
