FAITH IN SANTA CLAUS AND FAITH IN HEAVEN ARE AKIN

Beautiful Belief of Children in Their Patron Saint Draws a Striking Parallel With Our Own Adult Hope of a Divine Providence. By Mrs. Walter Ferguson What is more beautiful than the simple faith of our children in Santa Claus?

Even though they may know that the world Is filled with other little ones to whom the Christmas saint must be generous, this does not prevent them from believing that somehow he will never quite forget them. And does not this belief and our own adult faith in the personal supervision of a Divine Providence that watches over all our comings and goings draw a striking parallel? For we, too, likte children, know that ,there are millions just like us, many of whom may be more worthy, and yet no one can take from us the feeling that our life and our fate and our affairs must surely have the guidance of some immortal hand, that some eternal eye watches over us and that some infinite tenderness enfolds us ever. Tthis assurance is often laughed at. A great many 1 people call it egotism. But, childish though it is, is it. too, not beautiful? We smile at our children's faith in Santa Claus. And yet •vo know that mythical as he is, the spirit of our love will make him real for them. Because the eternal love of God lives always in the hearts of men, little children over the world will be given some token of Christmas cheer. And even though many of them may be disappointed ihis ■ year, still we are sure that some day their faith will be rewarded and Santa Claus will come to them. For the spirit of Christmas is the greatest moving force upon the earth. The yuletide season is a brief time when love broods over men. Peaca and joy descend and touch us with magic fingers. Feet go swiftly c n errands of mercy; hands are busy with work for others; hearts beat with tenderness and sympathy and affection. The echo of the angels' anthem resounds in the depths where sin abides. Love, the only magic that can transmute human hearts, rules. This is Santa Claus, this is Christmas, this is God. And faith in Santa Claus, faith in a heavnely power, are, after all, akin. Both testify to the greatest things of life—perfect things which can be neither touched nor seen, and yet which are surely with us. TUDOR HALL ALUMNAE DANCE Mrs. Robert C. Winslow was chairman of the Christmas dance given by the Alumnae Association of Tudor Hall at the Woodstock Club Thursday night.

President to Throw Switch Tonight Lighting Tree at White House. Bv United Fret* WASHINGTON, Dec. 24.—Christmas in the White House and in American homes will officially begin when President Coolidge throws a switch tonight lighting the gigantic yule tree in the executive grounds. But, as far as the White House is concerned, it will not be the same Christmas as was celebrated, say, when Garfield was President, or when Dolly Madison held the keys to the ladders and cellars. Once White House eggnog was as famous and as “reliable” as the White House Itself. The eggnog recipe of Grover Cleveland was considered one of the best. Tonight the huge bowl once used for White House eggnog will be empty and the walls of the old mansion will not ring with the solemn toast —"To the President of the United States.” After hearing his choir sing Christmas carols, Coolidge plans to stay within doors with his family and retire at his usually early hour. Fifty years ago tomorrow a train of carriages several blocks long stood around the executive mansion while their occupants wished President Grant a merry Christmas and received a glass of sherry for the courtesy of their call. But tomorrow there will be no calls. Mr. and Mrs. Coolidge and son John will he in the White House and they will only emerge o attend church services In the morning and perhaps take a stroll In the emoon.

THE INDIAN APOUS TIMES

The WOMAN’S DAY ■ "By Allene Sumner

A certain rich man whose name has been rather prominent of late years states that he received more than 19,000 mash notes from young women In various parts of the globe last year. At first thought, one says, ‘‘The hussies! Always some of them to prove that the female of the species is the aggressive wooer, the chaser of the poor male.” But just a minute now! How many mash notes from men the globe over do you suppose some equally rich and equally prominent and equally photographed girl would have received in the same length of time? Here's wagering that the sum total would still make the girls, even as symbolized by the 19,000 mashers, look like dew-wet meadow violets! Billie Burke, wife of Florenz Zlegfeld, of Follies fame, sits herself down with a magazine writer to tell him just how she has managed to "hold Flo” during thirteen years of wedlock, despite the world's most beautiful girls who are her husband's stock In trade. Mrs. Ziegfeld leaves no stone unturned to satisfy the public. She tells, with names, of one or two of her husband's confessed amours, and how she took him to her heart and told him that all was forgiven and forgotten.

One wonhers a little just what was said and done In the Ziegfeld menage the day that article appeared. Hero Is an Interesting situation. A wife may not testify against her husband in court. If a stranger said in print the same things this wife of Ziegfeld said, the stranger could be prosecuted for libel. But here Is the case of a wife publicly libeling her own husband. Thus runs the irksome life of one whoso most luscious diet is publicity. Here's guessing that Mary Smith who found that red hair on Tom Smith’s coat last night is glad she’s only who she Is and not a Billie Burke, who, for sweet publicity’s sake, must tell the public all about It. A lady attorney makes this declaration in a current magazine: ”1 believe J could not now be induced to enter into the present legal status of marriage. Marriage Is too much of a compromise; it lops off a woman’s life as an individual. Yet the renunciation, too. Is a lopping off. We choose between the frying pp.n and the fire, both very uncomfortable.” First of all, I wonder if the lady means what she says. I wonder if there lives any one woman anywhere who could not he so induced by that romantic, fletitious person, "Mr. Right.” Secondly, she sounds far from optimistic, dosen’t Bhe? I wonder if she would be a great asset to any partner in matrimony? The ideal business girl is described by a young lady writer in a magazine of the week. And when one finishes the specifications, one wonders whether one is reading about an ideal typist or an Ideal "Follies” girl! This girl must be about 5 feet 7 iches, we are told, weight from 120 to 135 pounds, wear her skirts "so as to convey the Idea of brevity without exhibiting an undue expanse of limbs." She must dress attractively, be poised, gracious, charming, vivacious. Wonder just how long she'd punch a typewriter for a living! And if such things be true, parents who are preparing their female offspring for a business career should send ’em to finishing schools rather than business colleges.

GIFT HUSBANDS? ‘NO,' WIVES REPL Y Chicago Judge Thought He Would Release Prisoners for Christmas, but Changes Mind. .

Bu United Press CHICAGO, Dec. 24.—Judge Francis Borelll, who presides over Chicago’s court of domestic relations, decided something should bo done toward contributing Christmas cheer to the wives of fifty-four men now held In the Bridewell jail. So the judge had the wives called into court. "How many of you,” he said, would 11!.• to have your husbands for a Christmns present?” A murmur ran through the courtroom. The wives Immediately bunched in little groups and seemingly were discussing with each other the Judge’s offer. "Well,” said the judge, “you don’t need to talk It over among yourselves, come up and tell me how happy you are." A rather good-looking middle-aged woman Btepped up to the bench and leaned over toward Judge Borelll. In a conflnedtlal tone she said: “Say, judge, you ain't gonna spoil the only peace I’ve had In years, are you?” Judge Morelli leaned back In his chair. “So that’s what’s the matter out there.” He called another to the bench. This one, a rather haughty individual, was emphatic, in her statement that “I can do very well without him, thank you." ’’Let mine stay there. It’ll do him good," another one added. Assistant State's Attorney Marie Andersen and the judge then endeavored to Impress upon the women that sometimes the Yuletide spirit aided greatly in effecting reconciliation. These addresses at the end were greeted with: "I’m glad to be rid of mine, right now." "Say,” said another, ‘l’ll see that mine gets a good meal but he sure belongs where he Is.” “That,” said Judge Borelll, means
