T H E G A T E C IT Y JO C R N A I 1 &’s Steed SPEED OF CONGRESS MAY ' ■ BREAK RECORD :V MILTON S HERSHEY Rapid Enactment of Bills May Make Extra Session Unnessary. Washington, D. C.—Congress Is on Its way to a record-breaking perform ance In the enactment of lte routine work of the sesslpn—the appropriation hills authorizing the funds necessary to run the government during the ap proaching fiscal year.' In two weeks the house has passed two of the nine regular supply bills and ' taken sip another. Before the Christmas recess begins next week, leaders intend td establish the record of getting four of these bills out of the way. The senate has passed the first of the bills sent to it by the house and leaders hope to have two others out of the way before Saturday , Failure by this congress to enact ■he appropriation bills Is the only thing which would absolutely force Herbert Hoover to call an extra ses sion of the new congress. However, the president-elect has promised an extra session for the con sldeyation of farm relief legislation. If It is not proylded at this, session, and whether this problem Is going to be left to him and the extra session still Is problematical. Some republican leaders, who also members o f the farm bloc and were prominent In the campaign of Herbert Hoover,.want this entire ques tion left to the care of the new admin istration. Opposing this group is a sizeable bloc of republicans who are strongly opposed to as extra session next spring. They want a farm marketing bill passed now and the other portion of the agricultural relief pledged in the party campaign platform— upward tariff revision-~left to. an extra ses sion next fall or to the regular term of the new congress beginning a year hence. 1 7 By ELMO SCOTT WATSON (Drawings by Ray Walters) S EVERY child knows, Santa Claus makes his rounds on Christmas eve In a sleigh drawn by “ eight tiny reindeer and their names ure “ Dasher,” “ Dancer,“ “ Prancer,” “ Vix en,“ “ Comet,” “ Cupid,” “ Donder” and “ Blltzen.” The eight-reindeer team, however, was not always Kriss Kringle's mo tive power. Time was when he made his visits mounted on a snowy white, horse. That was when he was known ns Slnterklass, the pet name of the little Dutch children for their friend. Bishop St. Nicholas, who, they be lieved, brought them gifts on St. ¡Nicholas eve, December 5. When Slnterklass came to New Am sterdam and became Americanized,, his name was changed to Santa ( ’laus and he began using a little wagon drawn by a fat pony, for Ids visits on New Year’s eve instead of De cember fi. Then In 1822 Clement Clark Moore wrote the famous poem which he called “ A Visit From St. Nicholas,” but which later became famous as “The Night Before Christ mas.” In this poem Santa’s equipage was the “ miniature sleigh and eight tiny reindeer” and the sleigh and reindeer it has been ever since. Just as Santa Claus Is an “ Immi grant” and a “ naturalized American,” so are the steeds which he drives. N o doubt It will he a surprise to many Americans to learn Just how many of these “ immigrants” there are In America now as well as to know that the reindeer is not only a part of the symbolism of Christmas but In one part of this continent be Is an Important economic factor. Up In Alaska there are more than 700,000 o f these animals grazing on the frcus- en tundra o f the North and their rapid Increase, despite the fact that more than 2iW),000 have been slaugh tered for food since they were first Introduced here. Is America’s protec tion against a meat famine mused by the rapid diminishing o f our beef herds. All o f which Is due to an exi perlment which our far-seeing Unc!«1 Sam embarked upon some thirty-sev en years ago. The story of Hint ex perlment and the part which a W is consin professor had In It Is told by a writer In the Milwaukee Journal as follows: Re ind ee r a re caribou, domesticated th ro ug h many ce nturies The average w e i g h t o f a f u l l - g r o w n anim al la 150 pounds, but by croaalng wi th the l a r g e r w o o l s caribou, It Is hoped to d e v e lo p an anim al o f 250 pounds Th ro u g h th e ce nt uri es o f d om es ti ca tio n Its flesh has lost the g am e fla vor until now 11 Is sa'd to rese mble a cros s be tween duck and mutton.

Pa.— An Increase of 2 per cent in enrollment— the smallest annual gain since the war— Is shown in reports received by Dean Raymoud Walters of Swarthraore college from 216 colleges and universities through out the United States, which are on the approved list of the Association of American universities. These reports, as presented In the current issue of "School and Society," reveal increases In 101 Institutions, comparing the November 1 registra tlons with those o f a year ago. An analysis by statps shows that In 26 states there are more fulltime students In approved colleges and uni versifies of those states than In 1927, aud in 22 states there are fewer such students. As to the cause of enrollment de creases this year. Dean Walters quotes various suggested explanations, "such as agricultural and Industrial condi tions. the development of junior col Washington, D.
