IN HIS NAME Surjpose that, on Christmas morn ing, the children of your family found tho following presents await ing them from Santa Clnus: One piece of soap, unscented. One chocolate .cake so tiny that It could be covered by a, small fist. Can you guess what the result would be for the day? You wouldn't expect peace, good will and a general atmosphere of delight. You would expect, rather, roars of indignant wrath. And you'd get them with out the least doubt in the world. Yet in Europe, when they distrib uted exactly these gifts unions the kiddies, the little faces were wreathed in enchanted smiles. Pretty soft, satisfying these for eigners, says young America, elevat ing Its pampered nose! It miglt be easy to please you, happy children of the United States, if you, too, had gone hungry and un washed for several years. Do .you know that there are chil dren in Europe, born during the war, who have never tasted sugar, much less candy? Do you know lltat there Mince Pies My Aunt Jemima used jto rise when wintry weather came, and make the grandest .old mince pies! She was a queenly dame; she had blue prints for pies and cakes of old colonial times, compared with which our modern fakes in cookery are crimes. My Aunt Jemima bakes no more, no more with mo she dwells; she journeyed to the other shore, where she is wearing bells. There's no one now to make me pies like Aunt Jemima made; the housewife to the grocer hies for mincemeat that's decayed. Oh, now and then a female cries, "You're talking through your lid, for I can make as gorgeous pies as e'er Jemima did. Come, eat with us .tomorrow eve, and I shall have a pie that will your yearning soul relieve, and squelch your hopeless sigh." And I loom up for grub on time, beneath that dame's roof tree, and find her mince pie is a crime, just as I knew 'twould be. Then I must like a statesman , lie, to save, her from despair, and I assure her that her pie was right side up with care. I'm homesick . for the old time plans, old days, serene and sweet, .when housewives didn't open cans for everything ' we eat; when stuff like mincemeat wasn't tinned, or sold in paper sack, but all my sighings are as i wind the old times don't come back. are children who have never drunk fresh milk? Do you realize that there are 3,500,000 children wh'o will have to do without food of any kind and who will die;.' unless you help Mr. Hoover to feed them? They are scattered over central and Eastern Europe, these children In Poland. Austria, Hungary, Czecho slovakia. You can pick out any in dividual, or any group of them. In any of these countries' you 'choose, and the European Relief council will "undertake on your behalf to see that the child or children do not starve. For the iltchens of this council honeycomb these countries. And from them they distribute the soups, stews and cocoa on which young Eu rope has been living now for years. Try to remember this when you're arranging your Christmas expendi ture. Try to remember what Christ mas really means. Then you won't begrudge Just a little to that child whose birthday you're about to cele brate with gifts and feasting, for "Inasmuch as ye have done It unto one of these little ones,' said- that child when He had grown to man's csluto, "' have done it unto Mo." COMMUNICATIONS. AtUlXST P.INCK MATRON Ihimt, Deo. SI. To tho Killlor: WhoniHnivtr ven tures forth on a tlitiK'O floor in Hi" oily of Uend. Ore, should Inunt'ill- j ntely lit "culled" by "I ho OMtooniud ' mnt run!" j j Do you people wiio enjoy dniirliiK reulUe Unit tho city council does mil j .approve of iIhih'Iiik?

In It any innrvol Hint poo ' pie urn 'culled" on n ilunco floor unit thn people, "culled" may h In-, 1 noccut of any wrong when our council IiihIhIh Hint notlilUK but the "rough oltuuont" uttond public I dances, and must huvo a matron, ono who is perfectly capable, of handling tho "rough element." And the more the dancers are insulted, tho moro pleased Is one council. Since thrrolty council does not ap prove of dancing, why do they per mit pooplo to hold dances? Would It not bo Hotter to stop dancing en tirely In'the city of Horn! than to let peoplo dance, chnrgo them for going to them, and thou having a matron there who Insults popolo every time they get on the floor? Now, you, who do attend public dances, know what the sages In tho city council think of you; you know why you are "called" nt tho dunces, and why you have a matron them. If dancing, In the first placo, Is vul gar, then most certainly anyone do ing the one-step or fox-trot is bo yond all bounds of decency. I The city council's attitude townrd dancing and dancers Is a disgrace to. the followors of Terpsichore. Any- ono with tho average mind knows! 4fut dancing is an art; It tends to' giro ono confldonco, and to bocome ! graceful. Dancing Is a clean plons-! ure and thoso who say it Is only . "hugging in public" are ovll-mludod. ! The clement that attends public dunces do so because they enjoy dancing. Tho go to enjoy a clean pleasure, and it Is an Insult to thorn YOUR CHOICE AS A CHRISTMAS GIFT We make it so easy to purchase a Phonograph this Christmas that there is no reason why any Bend home should be without music. I ARSON & CO.. HALLMARK KucknfM v The Story of The Christmas Tree Year after year sees the story repeated The pines, cut on the snow-clad hills, felled by ringing axes, hauled merrily home to the music of Yuletide sleighbells, soon to blossom out with shining candles and dazzling tinsel and then, after a few days, stripped of their holi day fruit and tossed aside. So with many too many of the gifts they bear flimsy knicknacks, carelessly chosen, to perish with the forgotten tree. Such Christ mas gifts are not worthy of the name. In selecting pictures of gifts to illustrate this pictorial story of the Christmas tree, we have chosen carefully from the most popular and beautiful models of these worthy, enduring gifts Watches, Diamonds set in Kings, liar Pins, Brooches, Gentlemen's Scarf Pins, Ladies' La Vallicres, Sheffield Silver, Clocks of all Kinds, and numerous other useful Rifts, Gifts that last! .
