NO KIDDIES—NO CHRISTMAS S——————— % Children Are Absclutely Necessary ta - Keep the Yuietide and Happy Scason in Existence. 'pg"' DWA_BD 8. MARTIN, who i £A\ME34 never bappler than whes ’\fivr - writing about children, had o ‘ a characteristic article Ia _ the Metropolitan Magazine entitled “Christmas and Children” In the course of its lines Mr. Martin lotroduces a suggestion that is extreme Iy unpleasant, but he clears it away de lightfuily, He says: ' “Counsider, If there were to be a lapse of new bables for even so shory & time as ten yeurs, Santa Claus would fade out of active existence and be come a mere tradition to be read about In books. A fallure of the infant crop for fifteen years would result in the decay cf the habit of hanging up stockings, and only antiquarians would any longer take the trouble to have Christinas trees. Of course, In svch an unthinkable contingency as that our world would be In #such .a desperate state of dejection that it would have no fun, though it would go through the motions of existence from habit. But the kind of Cliristmas Kkeeping we are used to would be knocked on the head. That lasts slmply and solely vecause there are children. The people who have the children maintain the current Christmas practices for their c¢hil. dren's sake, the older children maintain them for thelr own sake, and the folks who have no children keep them up for old times' sake and because it is the custom of the country. “What an Intolerable suggestion that 12, of there being no children to be had under fifteen years old; no bables to blink and coo at the Christmas tree cundies: no five-year-olds .to come downstalrs In their pightgowns after their stockings; no seven-year-olds to wake up everyone in .the house hours before breakfast; no ten-year-olds to git at the Christmas board and be

laborious searching of the toy shops, and harassing lindecision whether to get the same old toys or the new ones: no active concern about jack Kknives and sleds and roller skates. No having in—but It is much too awful to go on about. Let us be devoutly thankful that it is only an awful idea without basis; that there are lots and lots of children in commission, of all kinds and ages, and myriads more coming, whatever croaks there may be about race sujcide.” . !

Plum : Pudding of Other Days. A great deal has been sald, written and sung about the plum pudding of old England, but centuries ago it had a formidable rival for eplcurean favor known as plum-pottage or porridge. It counsisted of beef or mutton made into a broth, thickened with brown bread, which was then thoroughly boiled after raisins, curraits, prunes, cloves, mace and ginger had been added. This dish is now entirely obsolete, though: *“Puse Richard’'s Almanac” mentions It as late as 1750, and a Mrs, Frazer, who published a cook-book in Edinburgh in 1791, announcing herself on its title page as the only teacher of the great art of cookery in that city, gives a recipe for making. it, while Brand, the popular antiquary, tells how he partook of it at a Christmas dinner in the mansion of an old English gentleman in 1801, but it has long since been wholly supplemented by plum pudding. The origin of the latter Is velled into obscurity. The earllest cook-book ‘which makes any reference to it is .the one by Mrs. Frazer already referred to as containing a recipe for plum pottage.

Christmas Eve in the Home C HRISTMAS EVE fin the home is always a jovial event, or should be. The father has closed his ledger with a “Thank God” that there is now and then a respite from toil, from the perplexities and cares of everyday life, an oasis in the desert of the year, and yields himself. for the time to the pleasure of creating new joys for the loved ones at the home fireside. The mother's heart overflows with love and thankfulness as she watches the innocent and enthusiastic glee of her little ones over their Christmas gifts, And as for the children themselves, what eternity of time could compensate them for the loss of one Christmas?

; Well Led. : Mary and Robert, of tender age, had ponies as their Christmmas presents and were being tatight-to ride. Dalily they were put on the ponies’ backs at the entrance to Central park in New Yeork, and were taken for the prescribed round. Being only four and six years respectively; they welcomed the kind attentions of grooms, especially the immense help of leading the pony. But it was best that they should go 1t alone, o Near by the plaza entrance, of course, Is the bronze equestrian statue of Géneral Sherman, with victory going before his horse. Mary, after being for a long time without a groom to lead, one day looked wistfully at the statue. “Father,” she sald, “wasn’t it awfully kind of that man’s wife to lead his horse for him¥* T sttt ettt Sale === B dis Eates

More and more every day th demand for the Fordson Tractor increases because the Fordson has demonstrated so much usefulness, so much economy, so much labor saving, so much money saving, along so many lines of activity. The farmer has discovered that not only for plowink. harrowing, discing, seeding, mowingz reaping and threshing, but a multitude of other uses; cutting wood; feed; grinding feed; chuming; washing; furnishing water in the house; making electric light possible in the house and aronhd»_ the barns so that, as a matter of fact, there is hardly an hour in the day when the Tractor cannot be made a profitable servant. There is ditching to do; there are roads to fix, and so on all down along the line of the numerous calls that constantly face the farmer the Fordson steps in and does the work, shoulders the complete burden of the toil and the hard work, one might almost say “drudgery.” - - . This is the Age of Machinery, the day when man plans the day’s work; or the year’s work, and then turns it over to the Tractor to execute. Get the book, “The Fordson at Work,” because it is free. If you cannot call for it, write and we will mail it to you. The Tractor is not only a necessity to every farmer but is an established utility along a great many commercial lines. Our allotment is limited to so many each month. Let’s have your order now. * - : : ' ; '. . ' ; GEO. BRYAN ~ LIGONIER, INDIANA
