Toy Village Brought
Child by Suntu

A toy village, the kind a child
dreams about, greeted Joan Fay
Macaboy, 6, in the living room Of
the Club Embassy, 1921 K street
NV, when she awoke yesterday to
see what Santa had brought.
The village was a surprise gift
from Joan's father, John S. Maca-
boy, proprietor of the club, who
worked more than a week as
sembling and constructing a rail-
road train and 20 feet of track, a
church, waterway, roadways with
miniature people, as well as 40 small
cedar trees, their leaves and branches
covered with silver.
Joan found music coming from the
miniature church in her miniature
town. The music was brought by
an amplifier from a photograph in
the other room.

Many Distinguished Persons
Were Born on Christmas Day
Sir Isaac Newton Took Pride in Dote
Of Birth; Others on List Named

earned for himself such a reputs-
ticn as an artist that he was COM
missioned to publish the Century
Dictionary and many other monu-
mental books. AS first president of
the Grolier Club he stimulated the
interest of the public in beautiful
printing and as president of the
United Typothetae of America he
promoted harmonious relations be-
tween employers and employees
was, in effect, a pioneer for indus
trial democracy.
But decade before Mr.. De Vinne
was born William Henry Herndon,
law partner of Abraham Lincoln
and one of the martyred Presi-
dents principal biographers, started
an equally famous career on De-
cember 25, 1918. He became asso-
ciated with the future Chief Execu-
tive about 1874 and their friendship
was maintained as long as both
lived. Indeed, it is said that the
President intended to return to
Springfield after the expiration of
his second term in the White House,
again to practice law with his
"chum." Instead, the last years of
Mr.. Herndon's pilgrimage in this
world were spent touring Kentucky
and Illinois in search of historical
data for which all Lincoln students
are grateful. He was proud of his
place in the shadow of the comrade
he considered the greatest Ameri-
can" of the 10Th century and, sur
viving many difficulties, died happy
in 1891.
Clara Barton Born III 1921.
Mr.. Herndon was three years of
age when Clara Barton, founder of
the American Red Cross, appeared
in the earthly scene on December
Is, 1921. She was noted for her
courage even as girl, and her
contemporaries looked to her for
leadership because of her bravery
as well as her keen intelligence and
generous sympathy. Serving as
war worker during the period 1861
to 1865, she qualified herself for the
larger cause of mercy she was des-
tined to advance. A tour of Europe
in 1870 brought her into contact with
the International Red Cross at
Geneva, and she returned home de-
termined to set up a similar organi-
zation in the United States. Success
crowned her efforts in 1882, and for
the next % years she was the direct
ing head of Red Cross relief
wherever it was needed. A little
woman, only 5 feet tall, she won a

BY JAMES WALDO FAWCETT.

1t is remarkable fact that many
famous persons have been born on
Christmas Day. An ancient tradi-
tion tells that it is fortunate time
to come into the world. The privi-
lege of sharing birthday with the
Founder OF Christianity is supposed
to brighten the life of any man,
woman or little child.
Sir Isaac Newton, for example,
always took honorable pride in hav-
ing been born on December 25,
1912. His celebrated compeer, Cali
leo, had died on January 8 of the
same year. Perhaps he conceived
1t duty to carry on the work his
forerunner had begun. In any
event, by the time he was % he had
made himself master of mathe-
matics and physics. An apple fall
Ing upon his youthful head is al
legged to have prompted his epoch
making discovery of the law of
gravitation. HE was thus impelled
to study the law controlling the
movements of the moon and the
planets and next interested him
self in the study of the nature of
light" The Royal Society elected
him to membership when he was
only 20. Rewards came to him in
nrofusion. He was elected to Par
lament, appointed master of the
mint, endowed by Prince George of
Denmark and other friends, was
president of the Royal Society from
l703 until his death in 1927. His
life was happy, his contributions to
learning as important as they were
numerous, his immortality assured.
What more could any Christmas
child have asked?
Similarly, Simeon De Witt, dis
tlnguiShed American man of SCI
ence, was born on December 25,
1855, just 20 years before that IA
nous Christmas of 1776 when
George Washington crossed the
Delaware and attacked the British
ct Trenton. He fought against
Furgoyne in the neighborhood of
Saratoga and became geographer
in chief of the Continental Army
in 1780. It was his pleasure to be
present at the surrender of Corn
wallis and later to prepare a series
Ct maps tracing the history of the
Revolution. Then for half a CEN
tury he was surveyor general of
New York State, holding the office
until his death in 1884. Even after
hundred years he still is remem-
bered for his services to organized
common sense"
Noted Graphic Craftsman.
A third Christmas boy was Theo-
core Low De Vinne, director of the
De Vinne Press and one of the out
standing graphic craftsman of his
generation. He was native of
Stamford, Conn, and first saw light
Of day on December 25, 1928. Hav-
ing learned the elements of the
printers trade in the office of the

ONCE UPON JUNE 10th


Minerals that lie in them, the OPP
portunities they provide for air routes
between the other continents, and
their possibilities as tourist and health
resorts, are causing nations to bicker
over the sovereignty of the long neg
lected Arctic and Antarctic Contin-
entS.
Britain now regards two-thirds of
All Antarctica as British, including
that section which Richard E. Byrd
named Little America" Basing it's
Ownership" upon the discoveries and
explorations of Ross, Scott, Shackle-
ton and Mawson, it brought 1000, 900
miles of the southern territory under
the control of Australia by an order
in-council.
Britain thus completely overlooks
and disNgards the fact that the Ant
arctic Continent was discovered by
Captain Charles Wilkes, U. S. Navy.
The Navy can hardly pat itself on
the back for Captain Wilkes achieve
ment, however. When he returned to
New York from his epochal expedi-
ton, 90 years ago today, he found him
self under arrest. One of the charges
against him was falsely reporting the
discovery of an Antarctic Continent!
Geographers didn't believe there was
any land there, and Wilkes was dead
before it's existence was confirmed by
others.
With two sloops-of-war, a brig, a
store-ship and two tenders, Wilkes
sailed around the world, exploring
South American coasts, the western
coast of the United States, Hawaii
and South Sea Islands as a trade in
vestigator, and visiting, as a good
will ambassador, Australia, the Orient
and South Africa. His report of new
