DOG \N'D GINS FAIL, BI T I’LIVVEU BAGS PHEASANTS NORTH OLMSTEAD, O. <UP) — Two hunters anil their dog were rolling home empty-handed, at dusk. The dog was sorrowful as the men. And the men had made big talk to their wives that morning about how many pheasants they would bag. Suddenly there was a drumming | sound. Out of tile thick undergrowth | at the roadside rose three pheasants, j They swept upward across the highway. But even a tired flivver could- ■ n't stop quickly enough to miss hit-1 ting two of them. Leaving their shotguns in the car, the hunters leaped out. picked up the i two birds, both hens, and started j home.

There are many facets to Christmas. but no one can deny that the giving facet has a warm bright ray all its own. It is our way of expressing good will to men. We have all seen the pitiful little children the Indiana artists have irawn for the Indianapolis Star to remind us of those to whom the expected, or at least the hoped for. gift night not come unless we are willing to share. We become each year less willing to see our own maybe surfeited with gifts while others have nothing and yet some say the world is growing worse. . j We usually give the kind of gifts we would like to get. A woman once told me laughingly, ‘My husband doesn't give me what l want, particularly, but what he thinks I ought to want.” When Dr. Little was president of Garrett Biblical Institute he told this story about a little son long since lead. The child had said he wanted a jack-knife for Christmas. His father got him an expensive telescope. Bigger and better and of lasting value, but on Christmas morning the child said: "Thank you. papa, but I did want a jack-knife.” As a child every Christmas I wantd a book called "Chatter Box.” a collection of stories that appeared 'ach year. I received story-books and almost every kind of toy I was an only child hut I never did get a "Chatter Box." and no other book ever quite took its place. Who can remember way back when any small tree was made to serve as a Christmas tree, and trees did not appear in homes but only in churches? When the branches were wound with colored tissue paper, and candles in fancy holders were the lights? When for a week before Christmas the w'omen and children of the neighborhood strung popped popcorn, five grains and then a raw cranberry, for decorating the branches? When the whole town brought their presents to "the tree," and the presents were unwrapped and hung upon the limbs? Silk mufflers, embroidered slippers, two-inch wide satin ribbon elaborately initialed in silk floss to be worn j inside some lucky gentleman’s derby j hat. Toilet sets in plush boxes, "crushed plush" photograph albums, autograph albums and manicuie sets also bound or boxed in the inevitable red. green, gold or rust plush. The first part of the evening was given over to the "entertainment” in which from ten to fifteen little girls and one or two sheepish little boys, each in rapid succession, "spoke a piece.” Each little girl had had her hair wet and tightly braided for about forty-eight hours, and then just before the performance it was released and adorned with a big bow of ribbon. The result of this treatment was called "crimped hair,” and nothing was ever more fitly named. This program was just the preliminary skirmish, a sort of curtain-rais-er. The real business of the evening began when Santa Claus, and frequently his wife also, came in after much commotion, jingling of sleighbells and whoaing at the door. While the audience, as one man. was looking towards the door, the bed-sheets on tin sagging wire which Ijad surrounded the tree were removed and when Uv' eyes of the crowd followed Santa to the platform, the tree in all its glory stood revealed. Santa Claus then "called off” the presents and handed them, after kissing all the dolls, to the little girls with their hair “down," who carried them to the delighted and embarrassed recipients each standing up until his present was delivered. A girl’s popularity was ascertained by how many times In the course of the eve- . ning her name was called. [ The last thing handed out was the I "treat" n nisquito-bar bags :io the I oranges and pretty candy would show : through. | The evening was never a complete success unless the tree caught fire a time or two from the candles, and if (someone’s largo silk muffler got burned too provided it was not your muffler the evening was perfect.
