It was projected with the idea of preventing strikes and has the authority not only to order strikers baek to work but i0 require the keeping of factories in operation. Thus it isn't an organization that wided justice but the road. Those who may have believed other- wise must have been convinced that it is construcied to deal with industries as well as Jabbr by the decision Which has Just been given by the court to the effect that an industry must maintain a reas- onable production and tha: a cértain pro- portion of its skilled and necessary em- ployes must be paid whether the plant is operated or not, though of course con- ditions must govern. That is a decidedly different idea than has ever prevafled before, and whether the court has interpreted the lav cor- rectly may be open to a decision by a deals only in one- follows the middie of ~eourt. It ought to cenvince labor that it isn'tithe only party in industrial life to be regulated, but with Kansas industry being obliged to produce goods Whetherthere is market for them or not, or to pay wages while clused, there ap- pears to be a large expense attached which will make it difficult for it to com- pete with industries not operatind un- der those conditions in other states. The decision, however, is bound to call the. industrial court to a greater public ‘notice throughout the country. A STATE CONSTABULARY. That ®he granges of the state should be supporting the idea of a state con- stabulary for the purpose of dealng with crime that is committed in the country threa can be no surprise. Conditions here may not be as bad as they are in some of the staies Where such an or~ ganization is maintained but it can be appreciated that there are times ‘when the farmers do not appear to be, getting he protection they deserve. Whether the service that is aimed at or. expected could be actually obtained through such u organization as is proposed can prob- Iy be set forth as the result of the ac- tivities of similar forces elsewhere.

Christmas, then is net the telebration of some legendary hero as in Greek mythology who exisied omly in the fervid imagination of a people. It has all the proofs of historical accuracy. Christmas, from the Imaginative Standpoint—Whileg Christmas - carries with it the marks of historical accuracy, vet romance has grown up -around it Some of which is grotesque, and some exiremely beautiful. That in itself is evidence of its -reality and = undying worth. Myths never grow up around sec- ondary persons or secondary things. Among the beautiful romances that have grown up around’ the Christ-child is the legend of Santa Claus—a corruption of St. Nicholas—regarded - as the special patron of the young. The term Santa Claus was used by the Dutch set- tlers of New who Kept a Santa| Claus holiday. His feast held on Dec. 6, was formerly ceiebrated in England, and still s in Germany. Now the visits of Santa Claus bearing gifts to the chil- dren is transferred to Christmas.

It was likewise a gift in the highest conccivable form, that of aihuman child. What other gift can touch -the home with such holy. radiance or spiritual charm as the little, helpless human babe, whose first breath is a cry for help? By his side all gifis of silver, gold and precious gems fade away into utter insignificance. December Twenty- Fifth, by divine ordering, the dax of the hild's entnronement.

Where ceuld we find a chimney that Santa Claus could possibly descend or a bunch of ex- cited kid, crazy to see what was in their stockings? For a real- Christmas there must be a fireplace, stoekings, gray-hair- ed grandparents and, most important of all, children.” “Well,” returned his wife with a sigh. “then 1 ‘suppose I'd better feserve our usual tabfle at a downtown hotel.” Next morning Mrs. Ponderly resolutely attacked her shopping list. “It would not be so hard,” she mused. “if a man did not supply his own desires as fast as he discovers them. I had al- most decided on that clock for the dash- board and last night he showed me one he had picked up during the day. But it would be fun to surprise him with 2 real, old fashioned Christmas. Then suddenly she seized her pen and dashed off a note. “Dear Aunt Berinthia.” it ran, “may we accept this year your oft repeated invitation to pass Christmas at Ydlehaven? And may 1 come soon and consult you about 2 surprise for Riv; ley? Your excited and happy niece. Ada. Considering the length of her Christmas list, it was odd that Ada, on going out. should wend her way to a large institu- tional looking brick building near the park. After an hour, however, she joined the throngs in. the busiest of the toy de- partments. Two days before the holiday Ponderly said he would not be home until late. He did not explain that he had omitted to 2dd himself to any gifts whatever and meant to patronize the emporiums that were open evenings. When he reached home he found a mote. “Dear Ripley.” it said, ‘your Aunt Berinthia has asked us to her house for the holiday and T have gone out in advance. We shall there is room for traffic in suitable gifts for Christmas, and may we all share in the celebration of the day. The Man Who Talks would suggest that we re- member the aged and infirm in institu- tions like The Sheltering Arms, the hos- pital, the children's home, and the sama- torium. And to us all may it be “peace on earth.” T e ———— ODD INCIDENTS IN AMERICAN HISTORY ATTEMPTED ASSASSINATION OF PRESIDENT JACKSON. Since the establishing of the United States, three successful attempts have been made to assassinate our presi- dents and one of them was a failure, only through the weapon mot dis- charging when it was drawn upon President Andrew Jackson, on the 13th of January, 1833. The news of this at- tempt spread like wildfire throughout the country and consternation filled the public mind at the thought that the tragic mode of dealing With the crowned heads of kingdoms and empires had been at last tried upen the per- son of the popularly elected ruler of a free republic. At the time of the attemnted assassin- ation of President Jackson, he was at the in_attendance on the funeral of ‘Warren R. Davis, of South Car- olina. The assassin was—Richard -Law- rence, a painter, residing in Washington. This individual was seen to enter the hall of the house of representatives dur- inz the delivery of the funeral sermon, but before its close, however, he had taken his stand on the eastern portico, near one of .the columns. The president. with the secretary of the reasury, on retiring from the rotunda t0.reach his carriage at the steps to the portico, advanced toward the spot where Shich e stood.

Sunday Morning Talk CHRISTMAS PAST. Christmas Past is always resurrect- ed in Christmas Present. The oldest one among us looks back in the yule- tide with tender recollections to Christmas days in which the young around him have no share. Once, it seems not very long ago, the silver- baired grandmother was a little girl, light of foot and gay of spirit, and the venerable man with dim eyes and stooping shoulders was a youth setting forth to conquer the world. They had their merry times and their mysteries, their delight at the love that blossoms out in Christmas gifts. They have the same pleasure in a different manner now, and at Christmas are rejuvenated because every past year flowers out again in beautiful grace and peffume, in the latest Christmas. If years ago, these dear ones growing old made room in their hearts for the Saviour; if then they crowned Him King, they have realized his unfailing goodness and, through sorrow and joy, through storm and calm, through loss and gain, their lives have been hallowed. What a pity it is that some of us let slip so many happy occasions for { gratitude, so many seasons of rest and strength, because we have had room for everyone else, but never room for Jesus. For us the angels have not sung, for us the Star has not shone. We have missed the palms of Eiim and the,springing fountains, we have not feasted on the Living Bread, for we have had no separale sanctuary where the Christ has been bory in us, and we have had no outflowing of His tenderness in our intercourse with men We have been narrow and selfish, be- cause we have not had room in our hearts for the King.
