There was Christmas music every where. The pines were singing soft ly to themselves. It seemed as though they sang great long notes filled with melody.
 Blue curling smoke could be seen from the chimneys of houses and great old trunks of trees made cracking sounds.
 It was world of white and dark patches, of lights and shades and of the sounds of the wind and the ice-coated trees.
 It seemed like background Of music to Frances and Floyd as they walked up beyond the town to the woods to gather Christmas greens.
 They wanted great many greens. The house expected them. Every picture wanted its spray of green behind it, every window wanted it's wreath, and the house wanted it's big tree, and its little one for the center of the dining room table.
 You're coming to Christmas din- ner, you know" Frances told Floyd
 "Yes, your mother did ask me It was so good of her. Of course It will be my first Christmas. away from home, but we never celebrated Christmas much at our house. Not the way you seem to do.
 Why, I never knew people to celebrate Christmas as you do and there are no young children in your house."
 we've always done it that way Frances answered. Mother always had Christmas celebrated as though every one of us was child.
 Maybe it's what keeps us feeling so young and merry all the time. We're such family for games and fun-ali by ourselves, too"

On the fourth Christmas in suc- cession Nellie Martin set an extra plate. On the past Christmases her husband and the two boys had pretended not to have noticed 1t. But this year Fred Martin, walk ing into the big dining room just as his wife was adding the fin- lshing touches to her Christmas table, stopped when his eye fell on the extra plate.
 T think you shouldn't set it. Nellie he said gently. Tt only reminds us of-things we would be better to forget"
 Mrs. Martin brushed a capable, floury hand quickly across her eyes. Things would go blurry when she thought of Lucy.

 Family You Love?" much of Frances, he had never felt happier.
 At first, as he went inside with the Christmas greens, he felt a bit of stranger.
 Their voices were all louder than usual. They were calling directions to each other. They were laughing over the things they were doing.
 They were so enormously busy over such details They took as much time wrapping up a paper of pins for one of the members of the family as they would have done had it been rare necklace.
 And about every little detail they took the same care.
 The Christmas decorations were finished. The wreaths were up in the windows. Every picture had its spray of green behind it, and they were all talking of how it would look on Christmas day.
 Floyd was sure they would all act as though it were a great sur prise to them. That was how they entered into the spirit of their Christmas
 Come very early in the morn ing" Frances mother was saying to Floyd. Then you'll be here in time to help open the presents and empty the stockings"
 Floyd accepted gayly. It was really his first Christmas like this. And in the center of it all was Frances-Frances whom he loved so much.
 Maybe" he said to her as he was leaving, maybe I could really be a member of this family next year. Do you think you could love me enough to take me?"
 You're sure it's not just the family you love?" she asked, smil- ing.
 I'm quite sure of the member of the family I love best" he re- turned, and she buried her head in his heavy overcoat and said:
 "Well, I think it's very good ideal"

 T know his wife agreed. You meant it for the best. Arthur Blake was said to be wild and useless, but the Blake's are a good family, and I've often noticed that boys of good family generally straighten up again, even if they do go little wild for while You know, Fred, people who said you were, well, just a little"
 But I got wife like you" her husband answered. That makes all the difference"
 Yes, and Arthur got a wife like Lucy-if he married her." Nellie Martin insisted ."Let me leave the plate once more. I'm not giving up hope"
 At that moment the boys were heard coming in by the kitchen door There were muffled voices, and a sound as though they were helping some one.
 George, the elder, appeared in the dining room door, and his face summoned his mother.
 Some one here to see you, Mom,' he asid, in an awed voice.
 In the kitchen Mrs. Martin found woman sitting on chair, her head turned away, her figure en- closed in frayed cloth coat So- berly she crossed the kitchen floor and turned the head to her eyes.
 "Lucy!' she cried. Lucy"
 The girl made as though she would speak, but seemed overcome. Her mother dropped to her knees beside her, chaffing her hands, speaking words of endearment, cry ing for Fred and the boys.
 We found her in the snow, just between the barn and the house." the boys explained. She seemed to have fallen there"
 But right then Lucy seemed to come to life. She sprang to her feet.
 "Mother-Dad - I can't keep it from you any longer. Please help me off with my coat"

 "Arthurl'
 Yes. He is in the cutter with lit- tie Nellie, just beyond the wind break. Boys, will you run and tell him?'
 The boys dashed off, but Fred Martin seemed the most excited of all. Two, extra plates. Mother!" he shouted, Two extra plates nd a high chair!''

LIBERTY, Ind, June 19.-Argu-

Estel Buddy, Lawrenceburg, and

Attorney Shiveley contended that
three of the indictments failed to
state that the defendant had re-
ceived deposits by virtue of his
connection with the bank as
cashier. He also contended that
in the other indictments, the phrase
used in connection with charging
embezzlement of funds for his own
use and for use of other persons
was insufficient and not specific,
