A great deal is done for railroads. A Tjo'verhrhent board watches over them, raises rates when the railroad iacks reasonable profits, and sayr to the public, “Pay or walk.” Would the Government show .in terest of that sort in farmers and MAKE the public pay for wheat and potatoes enough well? to pay the farmer impression was that anything one million up was quite safe. from A learned Britisher, translating the Bible, finds a mistake in the King James version. The men that th? staT'guided to Bethlehem were not kings or “wise men” they were magi cians. In ancient days, the difference was slight. Unless a man*was a magician the superstitious people thought little of his wisdom. That is why founders of new religions have been compelled to perform miracles,- or pretend per formance. can of Martin, S. C. Dec. 4th, 1925.— Dear Santa: I am a little boy eight years old and go to school every day. I stud- dy very hard and 1 do not want you to forget to come around my way xmas night.

Please don’t forget my teacher Miss Mcelnten bring her something too. The President says farmer* solve their problems, or some ^them, by co-operative maketing. Could the President guarantee the farmer* against prosecution, bas ed on restraint of trade, if farmers combined, established market places and fixed prices? Martin, S. C. Dec. 4th, 1925.—Dear Santa, I am a little girl twelve years old and in the forth grade^and I have light compleexion and light hair, I want you o bring me a compact and story book and all kinds of fruits and fire works.

The District of Columbia Court of Appeals decides that the indictments in connection with the stealing of the naval oil reserves must stand. It would be surprising, gratifying and new if the fact should be estab lished that in this country a man can not go free even when he Steals one hundred million dollars. The general The great Kepler, working at his cosmic problems, depending on the Emperor for money and protection, had to pretend that he could read the stars and tell the Emperor’s for tune, warning him or .encouraging him, according to the stars. For the magnificent wisdom of Kepler, one of the wbrld’s six greatest astronomer and mathematicians, the Emperor had little use. In the Swiss village of Fiona men drank brandy, and got drunk. There was no cafe and the village was on a “hard stuff” basis. The men wanted a cafe. The women objected, opened a women’s cafe and ran it, supplying the men with light beer and wine and keeping an eye on them. Strange to say, the men who objected a t first are now contented, and what is more important, they are sober. Drunkness has disappeared from the village. * Here we are trying the other ex periment, driving out light wine and beer, putting in bootleg whiskey.
