THEY ALL BELIEVE IN A SANTA GLAUS
Hundreds of Grown-Ups as Well
as Children Greeted Jolly Kris
Kinkle at Co-Operative
Store Friday Night.
A BIG SPECTACULAR PARADE
Store. Jammed and Crowded by Happy
Throng —Bag of Candy for Chil
dren and Pretty Girls.
§DoJ grown up people believe in a real for sure Santa Claus? Well|we guets 'fcyes.f tThose ^who attended the receptionjfor the jolly old fellowat the.C Operative"Store FridayHevening .have no doubt of it. jjfHundreds of grown ypeoplejI and hundreds more of children £fillecf"Maiii andJEast streets for almost a square each way watch-, ing for the big spectacular parade at 7:30 o'clock, and when the strainajof band music was heard Jcomingffrom the west, a great cheer went upjfrom the crowd.
Old. Santa Claus in a big automobile, lighted with jan arch jof !varieolored.'candles wasj.lead by the band and 'a score orjmorejof boys carrying lighted tapers of many colors.' Santa was followed in turn by „the |fire wagon, hook and ladder wagon, with the horses and harness all decorated right up to the minute. As they drew near the speaker's stand, the scene was lighted with] red fire from the second story windows.
Prof.. W C. Goble introduced Santa in a neat speech, in which Taft, Bryan and Marshall were placed in the class with the has-beens Jin comparison with this visitor of the season. The children all agreed with Mr. Goble in his classification. Old Santa then made a short speech before entering the store and taking hisjjplace as distributor of candy to the children.
When the doors were opened hundreds of people filled both aisles of the store and there was a steady stream of people crowded through the store for an hour and many well deserved compliments were passed on the splendid decorations, all in keeping with the season and the general arrangements of the store and its stock of goods. The occasion was a .complete success in every way and was thoroughly appreciated by the children and grown people as well.
A Delightful Program.
Those who spent Friday ofternoon at the high school building, enjoyed a musical treat. Never in the history of the city schools have the little children appeared to a better advantage, and never has it been more thoroughly proven that public school music is worth while.
The teachers who had the little folks in charge managed them so well that for an hour and more, there was a constant forward movement of the program. The large temporary platform was completely filled with the little ones and each sang like a nightingale. There were too many special features to:permit us to mention any in particular.but suffie iv to say each acquitted himself nobly.
Much praise is due tho teachers who aided in the work and mauy compliments were showered upon Mrs. W. O. Winkler, the supervisor of music in the city schools. It is the intention to render another program about the last of February. This will be given by the higher grade students.

A FINE DISPLAY OF
A Profitable Hour Conld Be Spent at
High School Building By the Pupils'
Parents Inspecting Work.
A visit to the high school building, just to inspect the work of the pupils in the seventh and eighth grades and high school which is on display, would be not only interesting and entertaining but very profitable as well. girls of the seventh and eight grades, under the instructions of Miss Selma Stephens have accomplished work in the way of sewing that is amazing when one considers the short time devoted to the training in this line. The work is on display in the superintendent's office and consists of towels, and wearing apparel, mostly for children. It is hand and machine work and compares favorably with the work of accomplished seamstresses. The articles made are to be turned over to the poor people who need them.
The paintings and drawings of the seventh, eight and high school pupils are on display and show considerable ability on the part of many of the pupils and rapid development along this line under the instructions of of Miss Engibous. The best of the pupils work is chosen and put on display every two weeks and the best for the term will then be chosen and put on display the last few weeks of school. The pupils take to this department with great enthusiasm and are developing rapidly.
Where the attention of the visitor will be attracted is in the manual training department- Here the boys of the seventh and eighth grades work like beavers and are never ready to quit when the gong sounds. The boys have been enthusiastic in this work ever since the department was installed and they have produced some useful and handsome articles.
The present term they have been making book racks, bread boards, key racks, cuff boxes and calenders and some have taken up the work of staining these wood articles. John Radcliff has charge of this department.
Although the second week in December is just here, winter seems to be well under way. In fact we have a good long month of it already and people are now getting used to it. Last year at th.s time we were having fine autumn weather with no prospects of winter. The first big snow came on Christmas and it was a whopper, almost blocking traffie.
The government weather department states that last month was the coldest November the country has known in years. In fact the month was a record breaker. There was no zero weather, but the temperature was low every day and this,of course, brought the general average down.
More Good Corn.
George Myer an enterprising farmer, near Kennard, has an ear of corn that beats 'em all. It has 32' rows of 54 grains each, making a„ total of 1,728 grains. He has a number of ears with 24 ane 26 rows, th0 yield from which this corn was takeui made 110 bushels per acre. It is the large white variety.
Mrs. Ward McOray, of Brown township who fell from a street car at New Castle some time ago, is not getting along as well as was hoped. She suffered a severely bruised side.
V'sV^J^-v-^ «t?
BE
November ^Coldest in Years and De
cember Has Been Steady Cold—
No Letup Promised.
The prospects this year is for a long cold winter, if the beginn.ng has anything to do with it. The country weather prophets have examined the new fur, the goosebones, etc., and they have promised a rigorous winter. And again, Easter does not come next year until about the middle of April, and this has always been indicative of a late spring. All these signs have been known to fall, however, and most people will hope that a cold November and December will be followed later by a pleasant March and April.

The grocery stores of Greenfield certainly present a handsome .'appearance with their splendid decorations and fine display of Christiinas fruits, candies, etc. They are certainly stocked up to the limit.

Sebastian, ofjrural route six, who lives two miles west of this city on the National road, was in Greenfield this morning, and reported to a representative of this paper that a fat hog weighing about 160 pdunds had either strayed from his farm or bean stolen, The missing animal was a well-fatted red spotted barrow, and had a great many small black spots on it.

A Distinctive Drink
JDONANO, the hot-fruit drink, is a distinctive drink. Though similar in some respects to coffee, tea, chocolate and cocoa, it is, in other respects, quite unlike them. Possessing the good qualities of all these drinks, it has none of their harmful qualities.
BONANO—served hot—is flavory, appetizing, bracing, satisfying and extremely nourishing. A real food drink• BONANO is the only table beverage in which highfood value is combined with harmless stimulation.
And BONANO has a delightful, spicy aroma—a rare, good flavor all its own. Don't be prejudiced against BONANO. It is not a substitute for something else. We want you to serve it at your table for its own delicious goodness—and for no other reason. Try BONANO a week or two. We know you will like it.
BONANO is healthful, strengthening and never harmful. Let the little folks have all the BONANO they want. A 25-cent can of BONANO makes 75 cups of the best hot drink you ever tasted. For sale by
