Uncle Jed wishes all the Wide- dwakes, and all readers of this depart- ment, large and small, a Merry Christ- amas! You know, the Christmas tree has to look back to Norway for its origim and fat, big-whiskered Santa Claus began life as a child of the German imagination; but he was so generous and lovely that Germany could not Pold him, and now the whole Christian world claims him for its own. The world learned from Germany to Ranz up its stockings, but in Holland the children hang up their shoes in- stead, and in Belgium the children’s boots and shoes are filled with beans and carrots as a present to Santa; in Spain they do not expect him to enter their houses, so the little folks hide their shoes and slippers in the shrubbery for him to fill; in France Sanfa is called Pere Noel, and he | drops good things into the shoes of good children and a whip for bad ones: in Bohemia the little folks are aTlow to sit in the chimney eerner in their | night elothes, and when they hear the jingle of Kris Kringle's bells it is a| wignal for them to scamper off to bed: in Sweden and Norw the shoes are | caretuily polished and they are set in @ row before the fireplace as good omens for the future. In rope they have the Christmas box as the most popular form for gifts and blind man’s bluft is played. It took a long while for the Merry Christmas te be recognized as a me- mertal of the birth of Jesus at Bethle- | hem. It was more than 300 years after that this werld rose up and put| its foot on gloom aud established =a day of joy, and it was a master stroke | when a joy-day for children was ev- | erywhere established Christmas bolds within its spirit not only present joy but future bepes. It means, sayvs an able writer, that when this world and all its purpeses and deeds are wound up, and the last men and women stand at the end of time | and contemplate the complete story Of‘ humanity, they will not wail or hang | their heads, but they will ®ing glory songs | I | shout and | LETTERS OF ACKNOWLEDGMENT | Francis Diffley of Norwich: you very /much for the pr which I won. 1 siarted readin found it ve interesting.

He was put in a neat bed and the doctor was seorn busy dressing his wounds. The boy slowly grew consciod¥ gnd the first thing he thought of was his errand. What luck! He still had the ten dollar. bill in his hand. No one had yet noticed it. It was givea to the policemen to restore to its owner. Meanwhile the gentleman grew anx- ious and it flashed through his mind that the boy had perhaps kept the ten dollar bill. He at once sought for the pelice sta- tion. He found it, entered it, and was soon busy telling his story. ‘While he was talking the door epen- ed and two policemen walked in. They told their story of what they had heard and right here was the man to whom the ten dollar bill belonged. The gentleman then made his way to the hospital. He got there and was soon by the boy’s bedside. A long conversation followed.

A company of men were going out to a place in the wilderness. They were seeking gold. After a journey of two months they found a place with gold about it everywhere. But after a while the Indians came after scalps. A bloody encounter took place and the Indians were vanquish- Then a band of robbers came and | they also were vanquished. The gold taken from the outlaws, with what they had mined, made them rich. With a happy heart they went back east. They came again and they found a settlement already there. They re- mained there because that was where they got rich and had adventures. JOSEPH T. GILMARTIN. Norwich. St. Nicholas, or Santa Claus? | The patron saint of boys.

Several years ago where I now live there lived a family by the name of Wood. At that time there were wild animals here. Mr. Wood had a hired boy by the name of Squires. One night Mr. Weod sent the boy after the cows. He took their little yellow dog with him. When he got out in the woods he saw a bear. He thought it would be fun to set the dog on the bear. But the bear gdidn’'t pay any attention to the doa ~jput came after the boy, The bey Tan and 'cumbed a lmill tree. at their window, as his day oc- | fts of | that counted two smiles, | two ! t and | They have two | likes ‘outdoor and | of | A big tree e hear jc. the iarge tree and reached ou{"vi;rth his claws. after the boy.

The folks at the house heard him, Mr. Wood and his hired man took their guns and went down where the boy was. The bear heard them coming and ran away. They carried the boy home. In time the boy's heel got well. He lived to be an old man but was always lame. THELMA WHITEHOUSE, Age'9. Mansfield Center. op's i, Extracts from the Dairy of a Horse. A teacher read the following to her pupils: “I am only an old horse, but when I was young I was handsome and I took pride in letting no one pass me. Now I can do little, but I try to do that well. I take invalids and timid old ladies out driving. I let little chil- dren drive me and they can slap the lines, rattle the whip and shout as loudly as they wish; it doesn't try my nerves, “Sometimes they climb my back for a ride. I step very carefully, so they won’t fall off. So I do when the baby toddles around and 1 am cropping grass on the lawn. “I am always ready to carry plcnic parties to the woods: I go for the doc- tor; I take guests to the train.
