And He said, “Suffer the lit tle children to come uuto Me and for bid them not.” x ! YY’orking with a Christ-like spirit {several of the organizations of Con cord are preparing to give an enter tainment to the needy children of this community on the birthday of t’.ic One who was the Friend of the eliil-| | dren when He was a’.ivc twenty ceu-1 I turies ago. i Christmas —Christ’s Day—brings to the minds of the persons of the world and especially to the children the story of the shepherds, of the star going be fore them and resting over the stable |in which the wise men found the I Baby and the Mother Mary. And they think of the gifts that the wise i i men presented to the Child Christ, j j Christmas —and Christmas gifts— 'the words are synonymous iu the! | minds of children. In an effort to | I bring the real meaning of Christmas j I home to the children of this eotauiun- j ity who would have littlte Christmas | joy because of the lack of wealt’.i in their homes, the King's Daughters, j the Order of the Eastern Star and; the Loyal Order of Moose are co-{ operating with the manager of Hotel | Concord to give the needy children of Concord and this community a I Christmas lhat they will never for-j get. _ i There will be approximately 3001 t’jiUircu who will be asked to go to. the hotel Christmas Day ami their's will be a day of joy. With a Christ-j mas tree, covered with lights and gifts; und with Sauta Claus there to give the gifts to tbc boys and girls—they; will have their presents even as the j children of the families of wealth. Not 1 only present will make them know of the gifts of Christmas, but they will have a regular Christmas dinner with everything that should be on the table for Christmas and things that will appeal to the palate of a child. in addition to the Chris,mas tree and the dinner, the children w ill be i taken to the Concord Theatre for a j motion picture show which they will enjoy through the courtesy of Man ager Steiling of the theatre and wi'l have other forms of entertainment to make them happy and to have a real happy day on the birthday of the Alan Christ who said "Suffer the little j children to conic unto Ale." While the organizations of Concord arc anxious to give the children a happy day and one that they will long remember, it will be necessary for tbc residents of Concord to aid them, j That cuu be done by attending the! charity bull to be given at tbe hotel' Tuesday, December 21st, as the money | secured from the ball will go toward the entertainment of the children on Christmas Day.

A number of farmers arc in terested in fredipg out their shouts, owing to a low price of corn,’' Agent Goodmun said. "The self feeder that wo are building is designed as a labor saving device iu which feed is kept at all times to which the hogs have acceso | all tbe time- Tim is very necessary owing to a hog having a small stom ach necessitating filling often to make rapid gain." "Tbe feeder should have three sep arate compartments. In these should be kept shelled corn, milk feed, and tankage or fish meal. Fresli water should bo given them daily," he said.
