One Christmas eve he wished to give a purse of gold to an old man and his little daugh­ ter, and in prder to escape being seen, he climbed to their, roof dropped#, his precious gift down Chimney. Instead of landing the hearth, however, rhe purse fell fright into a stocking which was hung up to dry, and the next morn­ ing it was discovered there!

Every newspaper tells of some duty that has been set up or set down or set aside, QUEER Funny, isn’t it, but the fellow who has but two coats is the man who is sharing with the chap who has no coat at all. The man with a clothes closet bursting out with good things to wear shews liis appreciation by buying new clothes hangers and by thanking his stars that he is not as other men are. Would it not be well for the local council or for the Chamber of Commerce or for somebody in authority tp ask for two addition­ al lights for the village bridge, one on each side so directed that the light will fall full on the frame work of the bridge? As it is, the bridge is not readily seen by parties- approaching it.

They along with the school teachers and the Sunday School workers, are the real cheer leaders in. times like these. Where we find one groucher regarding the service rendered by such cheer bringerg we find ten thousand who appre­ ciate to the full all that has been done to brighten the day and to help the x-est of us forget oux' worries. The only reason that we are not vocal regarding the good, work done by them is that we class the efforts they put forward with the rising of the sun, the coming of the south wind in April or the timely rain or the flowers iix Alay. But when we’re on the subject we call upoxx all who are cheered by their sweet song, the lovely readings they let us listen to and the other entertainment they so generously and gratuitously provide, to give them three times three and a tiger and tlxe lasting wish that their powers may never grow less and that a full stocking and endless good, will will greet thexi on Christmas morning. $ >:< >h # * WHY NOT? Some of our citizens are demanding to know ’why the Carnegie Library is heated seven days in the week and is only opened three afternoons , and three evenings a week, A sign in front of the building says “Come iix and rest awhile.” Why could not this courtesy be extended to the public to use the building and particu­ larly the basement. The basement at one time was. used for a reading room and the use of public gatherings. Since the school children were evicted it has been closed up like a prison- and tlxe “Not Wanted” sign has been hung out to practically all and sundry organizations. What Eketer needs is a room such a& this where citizens can gather whether for business or iix a sociable way to pass ail hour or so. It has been suggested that writing paper be provided foi’ tlxe many young nxen who have come out from the Old Country who might drop ixi to the library to write a letter. This could be controlled by the Librarian. We have the building, it is heated and there is a janitor fox* it. Why not make tlxe best use of it? FOR FIFTY YEARS Air. and Airs.
