Preparing for Christmas Comparatively little poverty is found in Richmond this year. Any man who wants to work can obtain employment with wages enabling him to support his family with ease. Unless illness
or misfortune has stricken a family, there axe few of our citizens who are in acute need. In making our plans for Christmas it is not amiss to keep in mind those of our neighbors and acquaintances who have felt the sting of xnisforItune this year. Many of them will not inform (the charity bureau of their needs. Considerate Neighbors, with little expense and trouble, can fessure a Christmas joy for the children of these families by a little community service of their bwn. A few donations will suffice to bring happiness to the hearts of the little ones and to cheer those who are ill and unable to help them-Selves.
, ; Christmas Fire Hazards Christmas and its joys should not be allowed to blind men to the ordinary rules of safety for a ' .
the protection of the home and the lives of the family. And yet at holiday time parents who try to keep their children free from even the possibility of danger will install -in the heart of their homes, where it is sure to be the center of attraction for the little ones, the most inflammable thing that ever enters it the ordinary evergreen Christmas tree. While it grows more dry and dangerous in the warm rooms they drape it with cotton for snow, tissue paper loops and a -m m m a a t J1 2 A.
ji nnsei lor aecoraxions, suck cauoies au over it,
hang up toys that every child will grab for, and then trust to luck and providence for safety from a hazard that may prove as dangerous and as deadly as a rattlesnake or an open keg of gunpowder. Just to play fair and take his share of the chances pater familias often surrounds himself with pillows, puts on cotton hair and whiskers and makes himself more of a menace than a help in case a fire should start. And fires do start, thousands of them every holiday season. Firemen look forward to a run of Christmas tree fires just as they did to Fourth of July fires before the sane Fourth movement pot an end to them in many places. Why not a sane Christmas as well as a sane Fourth? Why should the children's festival be made the means of destroying hundreds of lives and thousands of homes? Use little electric lights instead of candles, asbestos instead of cotton, non-combust-
rflble decorations instead of inflammables, and
keen watch the tree with the utmost care, es
pecially when the children are around it. It's better to be safe than sorry, especially with the little ones at Christmas time.
THE GEORGE MATTHEW ADAMS DAILY TALK FEEDING ON THRILLS The thing that mates people get sleepy and Indolent la sameness, lack of Interest and no thrills! The great man Is the one who keeps making things nappes. And the reason why things keep happening is because he gets new and wonderful thrills from each task completed. There is fascination In reaching out toward the hollered Impossible! "Sail on and on and on!" That was the command of Columbus. "Dam the torpedoes! Go ahead" said Farragut. Oh the thrill that courage gives! The life that Is continually thrilled steps fast and constantly adds to its fund of hope. The whiner never gets any thrills. The discoverers, inventors, pioneers. Investigators what a world of thrills they live in! And the happy worker, he knows the Inspiration back of the thrills that keep running thru his heart. When we do something particularly helpful, we always get a thrill. The love of beautiful things, the rendering of service, without a single thought of any return, and the going ahead with, each day and doing the best one knows, these are what create thrills la our lives and make us glad to breathe.

Dinner Stories J
Dear Mrs. Thompson: We are two girl friends. We have two boy friends
who went with us twice and said they
naa a very nice time and also told a
fellow that they had a nice time with us. Now they pass us on the street
ana nang their beads down and will not speak to us. They are out of the city now. Should we find out their addresses and write? They have our addresses and pictures. TWO SUGAR PLUMS. If they nave your addresses, why should you find out theirs? It they care to write, they will do so and it most certainly Is not your place to write first If you have not said or done anything to offend them they have no reason to snub you on the streets. I would sucarest that you act
Independently and not let them know
that you care. Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am a girl 18 years old. I went with a young man 3 months but I loved him from
the first time I went with him. Now
he has let a girl friend come between up. What should I do, write to him or let him write first? I want to win back his love. The young man is 21 years old.

The only thing for you to do is to treat the man friendly but do not try to win back his

(Copyright, 1919. by The Vv'neeler : Syndicate. Inc.') ' KATHLEEN. KITTY AND KATE I Kathleen, Kitty and Kate are names t individual chars:, yet they spring from Katherine and are really only (translations, diminutives and contracftions of that most popular of feminine tnamee. No name is more universal ithaa Katherine and her various derivatives, partly from beauty of sound iexd partly from association. The graceful Kathleen originated In Ireland, after Katherine had become established in England. It Is an adaptation cf tie old Ossianic Cathlin. meaning the "beam of the wave" and the name given to one of the 6tars. Kitty and Kate are old English names, v-hica stand on their own merits as individual name6 and are fre
quently given in baptism. Katie is the Scotch adaptation. Catherine, bt I longing absolutely to England, has even produced a masculine counter-' part: Catherina Catherin Davita, the! famous historian, was so-called Bince!
he was unfortunate enough to have Catherina d riedici for his grandmother In Itsly, Santa Caterina is a term
of derision for an old maid. Many; hills bava baen. named after Cither-
lne, the Votaress of Sienna, and Ekatrineburg was so-called in honor of the Ruisian empress. In France the name is Catherine, Catherin?, Cat on and Trlnette. In Spain we have Catalina. Caterina Is Italian, and Katherine. Kathchen, Kathe and Trina are Teutonic. Ka
naka is Russian, and Katrlna and Koline and Swedieh. The Slovak adaption Is Katrina. The talismanic gem assigned to Katherine and her derivatives is the mots agate which promises a bold heart and freedom from danger to its wearer. It is an excellent amulet to be worn by travelers and signifies a Journey when it is the subject of a dream. Tuesday is Katherine's lucky day and 2 her lucky number. Waller's charming poem, "Kitty Neil," is familiar to everyone. "Sweet Kate! who could view your bright eyes of blue.
Eyes Inflamed? If your eyes are inflamed, weak tired or overworked; if they ache: if picture shows make them feel dry and strained, get a bottle of BonOpto tablets from your druggist, dissolve one in a fourth of a glass of water and use as an eye bath from two to four times a day. Bon-Opto allays inflammation, invigorates, tones up the eyes.
