- «• FALSE REPORT.
.Li^t week Alvin Fergpson re­
ported to the News that a double
wedding had taken place at the
Free Methodist parsonage Sun­
day December 3. That the con­
tracting parties were Rufus Fer­
guson amj Miss Ruby Magee and
Alvfh Ferguson and Mi9s Rosella
Magee and that Rev. Long of
Portland performed the cere­
mony. Since then we have learn­
ed that the statement was untrue
as only Rufus Ferguson and Miss
Ruby Magee were married. Just
why he should give such a report
we are at a loss to know. It
places the young lady in a very
unenviable position and certainly
was a very lame attempt to joke.
While we do not feel that we are
in any way to blame for this un­
fortunate occurrence, we are in­
deed very sorry that it was made.

CHRISTMAS NIGHT
A 5 Reel Show
The Christmas program will be
given Sunday evening, the night
before Christmas. Taking the
place of the regular evening ser­
vice beginning at 7:30. Program
will consist of Christmas songs
and recitations. But the special
feature of this service will be that
instead of giving a treat to those
present each person is asked to
being something to tie given to
soitieone else. Baskets will be
made up for those who are not
able to have much for their Christ­
mas. Should no one nearer be
found who would be glad for such
a basket a barrel or box will be
packed and sent to the city to be
iven to those who are in need,
or there are hundreds in the city
at this time of the year who will
be in need of food and clothing.
Some of the classes are planning
to make up baskets. But individ-
uaJs are urged to bring, a potato
or an apple or a basket of either,
or a piece of clothing that has
been outgrown by the owner or a
iece of money however small.
Iveryone invited. Be happy by
making others glad.

There was once a nice rag doll by

always tied her hair up Into kinks Of

But Dinah knew just how to man­

"Walt till cook goes down cellar to
get more apples," said Dinah. “Then
you must lock the door till I have time
to pop some corn for us.”
8o Dinah'* mamma locked the door,
and Dinah flew to the closet where the
pop corn was kept. In a short time
she bad enough picked off the cob to
make a whole poppgrful.

her mamma.
"Fine!” cried Dinah.
So she stood at the end of the long

thing, while plop, plop! went the pretty
yellow kernels. Soon the popper was
full of white balls as big as Dinah's
hand, which was Just about as big a*

Just then the cook came In. She had
