PRINCE RUDOLPH. Many years ago there lived in the City of Vahn a wealthy and mighty King who had one ogloved son, Prince Rudolph. Rudolph was a handsome lad and was respected by everybody, He was always ready to fight for his people. One night while he was sleeping comfortably in his bed, Prince Ru- dolph dreamed this: A young maiden, dressed in white, came before him and said “Go to that forest yonder, brave death, and free the Princess Valhalla, who is im- prigpned in the enchanted castl As she said this she wanished, leav- ing the Prince wondering. The next day Prince Rudolph told his father this mysterious dream, His father laughed at him. “Father, I am going to seek this Princess and find her {f I have to lose my head,” he said, and bidding them all farewell he departed on his journey. He wandered several days and nights until he met a very old lady, dying of hunger and thirst. Rudolph gave her some water and bread and soon she was able to speak again, “My lad," she sala, “you heve saved my life, and to show my gratitude I give you this.” And sho paced in his hands an invisible coat and a sword. He thanked her and con- tinued his journey. Many days passed, and soon he came upon a beautiful certle, Ru- dolph entered, but before he went further he was stopped by two big Nons. Ho took a piece of meat from his bag and threw it to them, They Legan to fight for {t, and he ran tn- side, put on his invisible coat and soon found a giant. Being invisible, he killed the gtant and went on. He walked trum room to room until ho finally found the Princess Valhalla in chains, He broke the chains and they both es- caped When they arrived at Prince Rudolph's home they learned that his father, the old King, had ded. The next day Prince Rudolph was married to Princess Valhalla, and they were crowned King ard Queen, Aaron Nusbaum, age 18, Prooklyn, WHEN SANTA CAME, Christmas carols merrily rang When Little children happily sang When Santa came anta came, I love Santa Claus And you do too, Don't tell me you den For [ know you do. & few Goren assorted Buropean ‘Wara,"’ Abe said. ‘Well, if that is the kind of foreign policy them Friends of Foreign Pol- foy is in favor of, Abe, what they need instead of a saembership drive is @ suit by the Government to wind up the affairs of the order, y’under- stand,"’ Morris sald. “Still, Mawruss, I don't think thet is the intention of these here Foreign Policy lodge brothers,"’ Abe declared. “They probably didn’t expect that Mr, Clemenceau would pull the line of war talk he has been handing out in his lectures and interviews.
