The buggy took them here and

One horse was hitched up front, and
Clowny said, HE must be strong. We
Tfnymites weigh quite a bit, but even
so we calmly sit right here and take
It easy while the horse pulls us along.
II wish that horses would come
back. I'd even like the old-time hack
that people used to drive in when
they went from place to place. The
horses never went so fast and that
made all trips seem to last much
longer than they do nowadays. The

The Travel Man snapped, Right

The Churches
A THOUGHT FOR SUNDAY
BY Amos r. Wells.

This is Christmas, the day Of the
great omission of the Roman census
For when the census officer in Beth
lehem enrolled Joseph and Mary of
the tribe of Judah, the family of David
the royal family, what account did
they take of the Babe who was the
Lion of the tribe of Judah, the King
of kings and Lord of Lords? 4
That is the way with our worldly
censuses, our worldly weights and
measures, our worldly histories and
statistics and sciences, with all their
Wanted completeness and accuracy
they omit the most important, most
VITAL most necessary things, because
they do not enter the realm of the
soul. Only the Holy Spirit can make
records here, and those who have the
mind of the Spirit; and those records
are not for paper and ink.
So we shall do well, this Christmas
day, if we take occasion, amid all it
exultation over material things, to re-
joice In what was left out of the CEN
sus of Augustus, but what If we arr
wise, will enter our own book Of life
We may learn today to be more heav-
eray minded, for this is the day when
heaven came down to earth, the day
when the Sovereign of heaven SUBJ
mitted Himself to earth's census emu
merators, if they would take cogni~
zance of Him.
And all went to enroll themselves
every one to his own city"

YELLOW DOG JIM A HERO.

just yellow mongrel dog whose
name is Jim" became a hero here
Monday morning.
Nobody thought Jim was much Of
dog, in fact he was just one of Those
things that the neighborhood tolerated
because Jim was a good pal for small
boy-Rex McGlothlin, who lives on
Seventh avenue west.
1t was the hand Of fate that collared
Jim last Sunday evening and brought
him out of his usual sleeping quarters
in his kennel back of the house to
the bedside of his master-it was chilly
out there and Rex wanted his pal to
be where it was warm.
Shortly before o'clock in the morn
ing Jim became restless and left his
comfortable lodging in the bedroom,
scratched the front door, barked and
then ran back and woke his master.
Rex believed that it had become too
warm in the house SO in the interests
of peace and quiet tried to Dust his
pal from the house.
But Jim refused to go, and made
such fuss about it that he woke Oscar
McGlothlin, Rex's dad, who was sub
sequently led to the front door by the
yellow Jim, still wagging his bushy
tail and barking. Dad McGlothlin eau
tously opened the front door and
peered out-one look was enough,
Louis Shebants house across the street
was in flames and going strong-but
the fire department took care of that,
and Jim has lots Of friends in the
neighborhood now.-Kalispell Moni-
