"My Country 'Ti. of Thee, Sweet Land
of Liberty."
CHRISTMAS is the present time.
Au, farming land is as cheap as dirt
these days.
WELL, if Great Britain can't do it,
American.
MAY this driest of all Christmasses
le the best you have ever had.
'Ttit are groundhog days, but the
rearcity of salt is making it scarcer
than usual.
W11AT has become of the old-fashioned
farmer who used to bring Wood to towni
to Hell?
Tiiav say Christnas comes but once a
year, but it seems like it came twice
this year. t

Tirs is the season of the year when "
everybody is looking for something new s
n stockings.
WHAT has become of the old-fash
oned farmer who used to talk about
'hardl times?"
Ouu Weekly Riddle -- When is it a
)ood thing to 1os4 your temper
When it's a bad one.

MANY an incompetent fellow tries to tid
'get by'' by constantly telling about
what a helluva goodun he used to be.
So many people hatve4 compared the
Kaiser to the levil that it must make 49'

Wi. have seventeen cents worth of' ha:
tggs we have been saving for a special
plurpose Christmas, biut it looks now
;ike wve'll have to fry 'em.
Wi: like to meet uplon the street
With Mr. TIhomas Pyles,
With manner sweet he do0th us greet r
And he's broke out with smiles.
hlere is a little quotation we try to
remember to print eve-ry Chiaitmias,
hecause we believe it d1oes goodl every
time it sees the light, andl we know fe v
things as appropriate to the season: 'I ~
expect to pass through this world but
-Tnce. Any good, therefore, that I ('an Ei
do, or any kindness that I can show to
any fellow~ creature, let me do it now
Let me not dlefer' or neglect it, for I
shall not paLss this way again.. '' - Bob
Gonzales in The Statte, 1915. !
DIEAh SANTA C.AUS: All we will ask
you for this year is a day or I w() of
rest. andl one eggnog (large si/.e). But
please bring EdL D)eCamp a bottle oft
Bevo, a small phial of white lightning

utn all-day sleep to) tion McKissick, andi~
a nice, loving wvife to (Gus Gossett; one
who will pat him on those rosy cheeks
and tickle him under that ducky chin. g
And we hope you will have the merriest

THE SPIRIT OF THE SEASON
M AitVELONS is the influence by
which the Christmas spirit moves
the hearts of men to joyful and
enerous impulses. It seems as if in
this era of the yeal' an unseen angel
ouche:s the invisible spring of an un
ised door in normal human nature and
ills them with joy and sunshine. What
i world of generous endeavor and what
i summertime of happiness is nwhirl
tround us! Those whom Providence has
)rospered are busy with their loving
levices to make home happy, to crown
he waning year with goodness, to re
yard fidelity, patience and love, to reap
he joys that flock into Christmas sea
on like homing loves from a far cir
ling light. None would deny theni all I
he riches of such experience of this
eason whose glory is the advent of Him
'ho came to minister ;to the poor and
ek and the downcast, and not to be
ted and filled with costly gifts.
MERRY CHRISTMAS
We are glad it is durs once more to
ect our readers with a bright and
erry Christmas. It seems but yester
y that we sent a like message to you,
d yet a year has flown by. May your

awful pains in my sides and hack
