Oh, Chritmas is a nuisance,
We sometimes think and say
Such a lot of work and worry
Just for one short day!
Hard-earned money squandered,
Weary hands and feet
Useless giving, senseless striving
In the struggle to competed
Yet, on Christmas morning,
When we hear the children'si cries,
Raiding little stockings
In raptures of surprise;
When we open parcels
That loving hands have wrapt,
Seems like springs of kindness
In our hearts are tapped.
Seems our thoughts grow gentler,
More tender is the smile!
Yes, on Christmas morning,
Christmas seems worth while.

cept through the mails the applica-
tions accompanied by the checks to
the commission payment for the IL

Thr Ghriat Uhiln

Rest little Babe, may Thy slumber
be sweet,
Though hard is the couch and pill
low Of hay.
Travellers from afar come to. kneel
at Thy feet,
And gifts rare and costly there
will they lay.
Soft eyes are gazing from beasts In
the manger;
Never had royal Guest lain there
before.
Though but an infant, was this
little stranger,
Angel choirs sang OF Him, men
came to adore.
Though but manger, SO humble, so
lowly,
Gives the place where Thine eyes
first opened on earth,
The Father proclaimed Thee His
Son, high and holy,
And stars shone more brightly
Ger the place of Thy birth.
So we rejoice when we read the
sweet story
That told OF Thy coming, Sayi-
our of men;
And now ascended and living in
glory,
Acclaimed now and always King
Emmanuel, as then.

THREE PERSONS BURNED
Farm House Near New Texas De-
stroved with Loss OF Life

Farm House Near New Texas De-
stroyed with Loss OF Life
1t has been learned three bodies
were burned when the farm house
owned by Jesse Monger, near New
Texas, Fulton Township, was burned
early Wednesday morning.
Mr.. Monger resided on the farm
until few weeks ago when he NOV
ed to New Texas to. the house he
.boug from Henry e. Brown, now
of Qu yville.
At 1 stone farm house, on what
is known as the Milton Haines farm,
were Willard Neff, aged 20 years;
Maude Morris, Virginia, his house,
keeper, aged 23 years, and her three
year old son. The bones of the wo-
man will be shipped for burial to
her mother in Virginia. Amos Neff,
father of Willard Neff, has claimed
his bones for burial. The child was
burned to ashes.
Deputy Coroner F.. T. Cauffman,
OF Wakefield, has decided the three
persons were burned to death by fire
of unknown origin. District At,
torney Hosterman with Detective
Forrest and State Police have been
investigating the case.
The fire was discovered early
Wednesday morning by Alfred Guis-
singer and William O'Neil while on
their way home. They aroused
neighbors who went to. the scene.
About two hours later Quarryville
Fire Company was summoned and
responded to the call, but the
house was then nearly burned.
Four shotguns were found in the
basement and later two revolyers.
The revovers had a part to play in
the tragedy, 1t is believed, the house
being fired to cover up the acts of
murder and suicide.

showed where a still had been To-
Gated previous to raid on the
house. In the barn kegs of liquor
were found and taken by officials to
