A Woman’s Viewpoint BY MRS. WALTER FERGUSON

CHRISTMAS is not a season, but i a state of mind. Now that it | Is over for this year, we can discuss it without nonsense or rancor. Considering hat he is able to do with o r pocket-books and hearts, it seems a great pity we can not in- j duce Santa Claus to remain with us! longer. The old dear is really more j of a miracle maker than a myth if j we count up all the wonders he performs. Omitting the heart throb stuff, just ponder upon his ability to on-, liven business. Anew high for the depression era was reached in December with every city and town j in the nation reporting enormous! increases in sales. We all know what that signifies., Millions of extra dollars spent for holiday cheer means more jobs and more money in the pockets of workers. which in its turn means renewed hope for thousands whose future has seemed dark for a long time. Yet if this wer-> all that Christmas did for as, we might still be justified in our pessimism. But think of how it affects our hearts. At the very first signs of Santa’s coming, something stirs within our sluggish souls. Hard cores of selfishness are dissolved and for a little while w holly disappear. In the i emotions of the moment we forget j ourselves. We begin to think of our | destitute and miserable fellows. Re-! membering the Christ Child, we 1 are moved to seek out the little ones who live in poverty around n for 51 weeks of the year, and marvel at the happiness we receive when we bring them Christmas joy. How tragic it Is to realize the sudden disapiiearance of these hunane and beautiful motives! For do they not leave us as Santa Claus j

fades out of sight on the northe’-n horizon? If by unselfishness, co-operation, loving kindness we can make Christmas such a happy, prosperous period, wouldn’t It be a very sensible move to have the feeling permanent? ■ least it is not forbidden us to prophesy. When we succeed in making glow, ever so feebly, the 're of brotherly love which flames c o brightly within us at the end of each year, we can achieve social justice. And social justice is more to be desired than visits from Santa Claus. GETS JAIL TERM FOR FIRE TRUCK COLLISION Driver Also Fined for Crash with Speeding Apparatus. Indianapolis motorists must remember that Fire Department apparatus has the right of way on Indianapolis streets. Municipal Judge Dewey Myers made this abundantly clear yesterday when he sent Levi Hall, Negro, 728 N. West-st, to jail for 30 days after fining him $1 and costs. The charge was failure to give a fire engine the right of way. Bandaged firemen from No. 5 Engine House testified that Hall, traveling rapidly, had driven his truck into theirs at 15th-st and Senate-av, Dec. 17 and that, as a result of the blow, their truck had struck a gasoline truck. Hall said he had not heard the siren. Other testified it had been used.

As Belthar charged fiercely upon him, the apeman crouched slightly and answered the beast’s roaring challenge with a roar as savage as the lion's. Then, suddenly, he detected anew note in the clamorous voice of the crowd—a note of surprise and consternation.

Belthar was almost upon Tarzan when a tawny body streaked past the ape-man brushing his legs as It came from behind. Then, as the hunting lion rose on his hind feet. Belthar was attacked by a fury of talons and gleaming fangs—a lion with golden coat and black mane.

Roaring and growling, a mighty engine of rage and destruction, the newcomer fell upon Belthar, fighting as one inspired by demons. Presently Belthar gave him an opening; and his great jaws closed upon the throat of the royal hunting lion. Deeply he drove his fangs.

The strange lion braced his feet and shook his antagonist until Belthar’s neck was broken. Tarzan gazed in astonishment. The hunting lion was dead; but Nemone lived, and her wrath was as great as Belthar’s had been. Now Tarzan heard the rushing rumble of her chariot.
