CHRISTMAS-
BEST OLD DAY OF ALL 1
Christmas Is the best old day on the calendar.
Three hundred and sixty-four other days In the year come and
go, few of us paying but a small amount of attention to them.
Now Yours would pass hy unnoticed were It not for the fact that
our friends keep telling us of the good resolutions they are mak
ing and Inviting us to a front seat on the water wagon.
Decoration dny gives the older generation a chance to do honor
at the graves of our soldier and sailor dead to the younger gen
eration It means a bully good chance to lay off work and root for
our favorite team and help swell the gate receipts.
July the fourth brings with It outbursts of patrlctlsm and a
great deal of noise, rattle and bang and leaves behind a trail of
disfigured. Injured and dead. The small boy glories In It wise
parents dread It the surgeons welcome It.
Then shortly our president Issues his Thanksgiving proclama
tion and It Is given millions of dollars worth of free advertising In
the newspapers of the nation.
But when Christmas Is In the air the English speaking world
sits up and takes notice. Each one of us becomes enthusiastic.
From toddling tot to second childhood, In all walks of life. In all
classes of roclety, high and low, rich and poor, prosperous and des
titute, the well and the sick, the strong and the afflicted arise and
with one mighty shout, proclaim: "Rejoice for Christmas Is here."
And why?
Simply because the first Christmas was real and human and
rfonulne. There was a reason for It
The reason was apparent to all who cared to know. And the
world knew.
Thousands of Christmas' have followed the first. Yet through
all the years the same spirit of "Ceace on earth and good will to
men" has been preserved. Tho form of celebration vhas been
changed tout little the main it Is identical.
Christmas is not the desire of a few It Is the privilege of the
many. There Is nothing of sham or mockery In It.
i
It's genuine through and through.
It's as broad as the earth and stretches from pole to pole.
It's the best and best known day In the year.
It's Christmas. V ' a.Trj
A Merry Christmas to all and to
all a Happy New Year

Mistaken for the President.
Charles H. Carter, the well known
local attorney looks like President
Taft If an Incident that occurred at the

terion to go hy. While waiting for a
train yesterday Mr. Carter was ap
proached by a stranger with the greet
ing "How do you do. President Taft,
I believe I met you In Spokane."
Though badly staggered by the unex
pected announcement Mr. Carter was
able to reply "I am not President Taft
but I thank you for the compliment.
May I nsk who you are." The visitor
answered that he was Dr. Gleason of
Spokane and insisted he really be
lieved the Pendleton man to be the
president That this Is a fact is
vouched for by Major Lee Moorhouse
who was a witness to the Incident and
enjoyed the same.

And all things considered together
