Good Christmas
BY EDWARD SANFORD MARTIN,
In Missouri Farmer.

THOUGH doubters doubt and scoffers SCOT,
i And Peace on earth seems still far off:
Though learned doctors think they know
The gospel stories are not so;
Though greedy man Is greedy stin
And competition chokes goodwill,
While rich men sigh and poor men fret,
Dear mel we can't spare Christmas yeti
Time may do better-maybe not;
Meanwhile let's keep the day we've soti
On Bethlehem's birth and Bethlehem's star
Whate'er our speculations are,
Where'er for may the line
Where human merges with divine,
We're dull indeed II can't see
What Christmas feelings ought to be,
And dull again If we can doubt
It's worth our while to bring them out.
"Glory to God; goodwill to menu
Comet Feel it, show it, give it theni
Come to US, Christmas, good old day,
Soften us, cheer US, say your say
To hearts which thrift, too eager, keeps
In bonds, while fellow-feeling sleeps.
Good Christmas, whom children love,
We love you, too! Lift US above
Our cares. our fears, our small desiresi
Open our hands and stir the fires
Of helpful fellowship within us,
And back to love and kindness win usi

CAPTAIN SCOTT and his men on
~ their way to the Pole once cele-
brated Christmas day by having a
wash in a cupful of water each, and
by washing their shirts. On another
occasion, after Deing on short rations,
they kept Christmas day by consum-
ing such luxuries as raisins and choc-
olates for breakfast, and for supper
they INDUCED in four courses. First

pemmican. with slices of horse meat
favored with onion and curry powder
and thickened with biscuit, then ar
rowroot cocoa and biscuit hoosh

cocoa with raisins. and finally, a des-
sert of caramels and ginger. After
all this" says Scott, sit was difficult
to move. Wilson and couldn't finish
our share of the plum pudding. We
felt thoroughly warm and slept splen-

 Referring particularly to the mines in Alaska, the Nashville Banner de- ciares: "In the light of the history of it's purchase, it is especially inter- esring to see indi .ations. from time to ti,ae that the req! value of Alaska to the United States is increasing as we learn more about it. When. Secretary Seward bought Alaska from Russia in 1867 for $7,2OO,0oo in gold there was a great query on the par tof an in- dignant republic. The Territory was popularly referred to as, Stewards Folly" and people said there no ac- counting for the senseless extrava- gance in which some. people would in- dulge, and SO on. Recent geological survey sin Alaska have emphasized several facts about Alaska tkat make the biting criticism of. Secretary Seward in days gone by all the ,aore amusing"
 An inquiry has come from Alaska as to the number of patented mining claims in the Territory and as to whether there are not large areas of patented ground owned by absentee landlords, and which are held purely for speculation, with no effort made to develop them. It is difficult to. as certain the number of. claims patented, but the Department off he Interior is now figuring out the number of pat ents that have. been issued, with the idea hat each patent will averag, be- tween two and three; claims, as the large majority are for one claim only. But the Department states that after a patent is issued it is almost im- possible to determine into whose hands, the claims finally reach.
 Various sections of the Territory have made inquiry of Delegate Wick ersham as to the workings of the Federal loan bank act, with particular inquiry as to whether Alaska is to be a beneficiary under the act. Section provides. As soon as practicable the board shall divide the continental United States, Porto Rico, the Virgin Islands and the. Territories of Alaska and Hawaii into not less than eight nor more than twelve districts. Such districts shall be; apportioned with due regard to the custom lcmfw wi due regard to the convenience and customary course of business of the institutions eligible to and likely o subscribe for stock of a Federal home loan bank to be formed under this act, but no such district shall contain a fractional part of any State"
 A clause under Section 2 provides that: "An .amortized' or 'installment' home loan mortgage shall, for the purpose of this act, be a home mort gage loan to be repaid or liquidated in not less than eight years by means of regular weekly. monthly or quar-, terly payments made directly in re- duction of the debt or upon stock or shares pledged as collateral for the repayment of such loan."

The Superintendent of the House Office Building is arranging to have all the rooms in the h'1i,ding repaint- ed and renovated, having commenced on. the first floor.

 Behind the great and growing use of the air as medium of transmit ting radio signals and broadcasis rests the activity of the staff of the radio division of the Department of Commerce, comprised of men who handle a wide range of technical de- tails and the administrative personnel in which direction of the agency's work is centered.

It is not possible with the limited inspection force of the radio division to inspect regu- larly the more than 26,O00 licensed radio transmitting stations.
 The Delegates office has received a letter fro. mAlaska inquiring why. politics are injected by some of the partisans of the Territory in discuss ing the appropriations made by Con- gress. An instance is given in citing that Hawaii received Federal high way aid while Alaska failed to re- ceive a, slice of this fund, but it was not explained that several years ago Hawaii was included in the Federal aid legislation, while Alaska contin- ued to receive her appropriations in the old way. Major Elliott, president of the Alaska Road Commission, the Department and various members of the Senate and House friendly to Alaska went into the. subject and all decided that Alas ka would receive larger appropria- tions under the present system, ratherd than to secure Federal highway aid. When Mir. McDuffie, chairman of the economy committee of the House, de- clares that Alaska, with her small population, is not entitled to anyyroadsl it may be understood how difficult it is to induce the Demo- cratic majority in the House to agree to ertend reasonable road appropria- tions for Alaska. When Chairman McDuffie moved to eliminate the. en- tire appropriation for 1888 the mot ton. was only defeated by six votes
