It wim not one to poor llttlo Ednu

This Christmas evo Edna was very
sad. She hud planned to give her
mother u nice Christmas present, and
to crown It all she wus going to hldo

her widowed and sick mother's bed.
A well dressed man and women

tho woman softly, and the man nod

"Poor child,"
he murmured.
And when Edna

Pull of happiness, sho tucked tho
money away in her pocket and grasped
a package handed over the counter by
an Impatient clerk.
"Cash" took the package, and It
dropped from her tired fingers to tho
floor. She stooped to pick it ip, nnd
as she did so her fingers came In con
tact with a small square leather
pocketbook such as men carry. Sho
found a corner of the stnlrway quite
vacant of shop

crammed with

A pretty housemaid opened tho door

Bob Stillwell's
Christmas
By ANNE CAREW
OB STILLWELl
snt down on hit
sled with hi!

tened hands nnd
tried to plan
what he could
glvo folks for
Christmas, for It
was only three
days away.
"I can't glvo a
thing I" ho mut
tered at lnt, for
he did not have a
penny of his own,
nnd he knew that
money was very
scarce on the
farm thnt year.
The Stlllwell
children would be lucky If they nil had
mittens nnd warm shoes ami stock
ings. Yet Bob knew that his sister
Nan was dreaming of a doll house,
llttlo Peter wanted a puppy all his own,
and he didn't dare think of his big sis
ter Amy and big brother Elmer and
his father and mother.
i'Why not mnko 'cm something?" was
the thought that came to him.
Bob jumped up and went home whis
tling through the woods. Under the
pine trees he stopped and brushed
away the snow. When he got through
his pockets were full of dried pine
cones, large and small, and some pieces
of birch bark.
Tho day before Christmas Bob un
locked the woodshed door and looked
ut the result of his labors.
There wns n doll house for little Nan

wall paper on tho walls of tho two
rooms, bits of carpet on tho floors nnd
some cardboard furniture that Bob had
made. Ho had even tacked little scraps
of lace at the windows for curtains.
For Amy there was tho lovely pic?
turo from tho Sunday newspaper which
sho had admired. Bob had remember
ed and had made a frame for It out
of strips of wood, and on the wood
he had glued tiny pine cones, pieces of
birch bark and dried moss, and as the
picture was a woodland scene you can
Imagine how pretty it was. Bob had
found a chair rung, which he scraped
and polished with some oil and turpen
tine. He put some screweyes in tho
ends, and Amy gave him a piece of
narrow red ribbon to make loops nnd,
behold, there was a necktie holder for
Elmer I For his mother he whittled a
reel for her clothes lines, and It was
a wonderfully handy thing, nnd for his
father he bought n pipe. It happened
this way : Ho did some errands for the
man who kept tho tobacco store In the
village, nnd when tho man would hnvo
pnld him some money Bob said he'd
rather havo n pipe. So now they were
all provided for except llttlo Peter.
How was Bob going to get hold of a
reul live puppy?
"You go over to ray brother's place
at tho foot of Long hill, und you tell
him I sent you," said the tobacco man.
"Maybe he will let you hnvo a puppy
and work It out for him on Saturdays.
Ho lias a paper route."
"I'll do It if ho Willi" cried Bob
eagerly. Half an hour Inter he hurried
into the woodshed with a wriggling
llttlo puppy under his coat. Of course
he had to tell his mother about thnt.
And how Bob did enjoy tho secret, run
ning to and fro with milk aud scraps
of meat for tho puppy 1
When Christmas morning dawned I
think Bob Stlllwell was the most sur
prised boy In Llttlo Itlver. Ho was so
interested In watching tho pleasure of
his brothers and sister wltli the gifts
ho had mado with his own hands that
ho stood smiling, forgetting to look at
tho tree for his own presents.
"Look, Bobby ; look I" screamed llttlo
Peter.
Bob looked and turned palo with sur
prise. Tho grandest new sled,' painted
a bright red, runnprs and all. His fa
ther und Elmer had made It together.
And thcro was n red woolen muffler
that Amy had knitted for him and oth
er 'things that Santa Cluua brought

A Present for
Santa Glaus
By ELINOR MARSH
DWINA'S mother was
busy putting
inlnco pics Into
tho oven, so sho
did not notice
tho llttlo girl
when sho passed
through tho room,
Edwlna wore her
warm winter coat
and tam-o'-shanter,
nnd her fat
fingers were snug
glcd up In red
mittens.
"I've got Christ
inns crrnnds to
do. mother." snld
Edwlna when she reached tho door.
"Tomorrow's Christmas, and I'm go
ing to buy a present for Snntn Clnus."
"Well, I declare " Mrs. Kay sank
Into a chnlr und began to laugh. "A
present for Snntn Clnus himself?"
"A real present. I've got 12 cents. I
earned this money my own self, and
nnd I want to buy something for Sntitn
with my own money."
"Very well, dear. I nm sure Snntn
Claus will be pleased enough to be
remembered. You had better go to
Smith's store."
"All right," called Edwlna as she
went out.
It was snowing n little Just little,
light, lloatlng flakes like tiny feathers.
Inside the kitchen It had been warm
und cozy, with u delicious smell ol
mince meat, fresh cookies and apples.
Outside It wus cold, and the stinging
snowflnkes made her cheeks tingle.
"What can 1 do for you, Edwlna?"
asked Mr. Smith.
"I want u pair of slippers for a
man," said Edwlna, primly.
"What size?" asked tho storekeeper.
"Very big ones," suld Edwlnn In a
grownup's manner.
"Hum I" smiled Mr. Smith In n mys
terious way. "Well, you can chango
them after Christmas If they don't
fit."
Edwlna wondered If Santa Clnus

slippers, but sho said nothing until
Mr. Smith showed her a very largo
pair of flowered slippers.
How good old Santa would enjoy
those comfortable slippers 1
"Wlll12 cents be enough?" asked
Edwlna anxiously.
"Ho, ho, hol'Moughcd Mr. Smith.
"Twelvo cents? No, Edwlna. Tho
price of these slippers Is $2."
"I guess I won't take them," fal
tered Edwlnn no sho left the store.
Edwlna hurried away from Smith's
store and went to a llttlo 10 ccnt'store.
Here were nil sorts of things she could
buy with her money, but It was hard
to choose something Snntn Claus might
like. There wcro books such nlco
btorlcs, too. Ono in particular, called
"Patty nnd Her Pitcher," was so de
lightful that Edwlna was sure Santn
Claus would like It. So sho paid 10
cents for that, nnd with tho remaining
2 cents sho bought two sticks of red
and whlto striped candy.
When she showed these things to
her father and mother they did not
even smile, but they said they wero
sure Santn Claus would bo pleased.
"I shall hung n stocking for 'Santa
and put these things In It," snld Ed

a note saying:
"From a llttlo girl who loves you."
She went happily to bed, and tho

LESSON FOR DECEMBER 23
THE 8TORY OF THE FIR8T
CHRISTMA8.
LESSON TEXT-Matthew M-1Z
OOI.DEN TEXT-Thore Is born to you
this day In (he city ot David, n. Savior,
who Is Christ tho Lord. Luke 2:11. i
Tho story of the birth of Jesus la
recorded In three of tho four Gospels,
Matthew, Luke and John, each of
which contributes some fenturo essen
tial to complete the picture. No ono
should teach this lesson who does
not hnvo n guod "harmony of tho
Gospels." Every yenr for tho 45 yours
of tho International Sundny School
Lessons, we have had the Christmas
lesson taken from these three Gospels
one at n time. This yenr In closing
tho present series, wo unite nil three
Gospels In one complete story, "Tho
Story of the First Christmas."
Tho order of events should clearly
be kept In mind as follows: "Tho
angelic announcement to Zacharlas,
tho priest, whllo In tho exercise of
his ministerial olllce. Tho angelic an
nouncement to Mnry, tho mother of
Jesus, and to Joseph, her espoused
huslmnd. Mary's visit to her cousin,
Elizabeth, nnd tho birth of John the
Baptist. The birth of Jesus nnd his
circumcision on the eighth day (Luke
2:21). Ills redemption some 31 days
later, introducing Simon tho priest
(Luko 2:22), and tho purification of
the mother.
The coming of Jesus wns ut tho roost
opportune time In nil the history of
the world, for Palestine was the cen
tral region of the Itoman empire. The
whole civilized world was subject to
Itoman domination, no wns born
whllo the entire world was at peace,
for once In Its history. Travel was
at Its best, for tho Itoman military
roads all centered In Bomo and ex
tended throughout tho empire. Tho
Greek lnnguago was Bpokcn every
where, along with natlvo languages,
so that the Gospel could readily bo
heard In nil parts of tho empire. The
Old Testament, was translated Into
Greek. Tho Jews wero scattered
throughout all lands, carrying this Old
Testament with them, and had estab
lished their synagogues In nearly ev
ery city and town. There was also
a wide-spread Intellectual nnd moral
awakening, and there was wide-spread
religious unrest and a hungering for
something better.
I. The Search. Notice that ho who
was born on this first Christmas, was
tho "only begotten of God." This dlv
Ino being became flesh, a strango nnd
seemingly Impossible union, but only
such a union of the, human and dlvlno
could draw man to God. If Jesus
bad not been Identified with the dlvlno
nature of God, all the love, honor and
devotion which wo glvo to him, would
lead us Into Idolatry. (1) Wisdom
seeking (vv. 1, 2). See also Acts 13 :0.
Who these men were, wo do not'know.
They wero evidently students of tha
stars, and perhaps came from Persia
whither Bnluam went ' (Numbers
23:7; Numbers 24:17-10.) They may
have known ot Daniel's prophecy.
They came because they had seen a
star. A little light, only a small star,
and we may have the sun. (John
8 :12.) The highest wisdom Is to know
God. (Prov. 0:10.) Wo do not havo
to seek far to find him. Tho highest
wisdom Is also teachable: "Where Is
he that Is born?" These wloo men
were not tho first ones to seek him,
for the humblo shepherds who had
heard tho angelic host (Luko 2:15,
10), Immediately went to Jerusalem
to make sure that tho good news' was
true. Tradition only gives us tho
names of these men. They typify tho
world, tho first Gentiles who camo to
seek Jesus. (2) Wickedness Seeking
(v. 8-8). It Is Interesting to noto
tho alarm of Herod, his suspi
cion and jealousy. Why? Noto tho
carefulness of Herod's search. First
tho chief priests, who wero the
ologians; then the scribes nnd
lawyers, who wero tho historians;
then tho .common pcoplo who wcro
famlllnr .with tho traditions; nnd,
finnlly, tho wlso men (v. 7).
II. Wisdom Rewarded (vv. 0-11).
Persistent obedient searching after
God always brings wisdom. Notlco
tho steps of tho wlso men. They
sought, they found, they rejoiced, they
worshiped and they gnvo gifts. Tho
stable of Christ's birth Is evidently an
exchango for a houso (v. 11 and Luko
2:7). Tho gifts they presented havo
a threefold slgnlflcunco: Gold, for
roynlty, Indicating divine glory; Frank
incenso for deity, tho aroma of his
life; Myrrh, signifying death, his death
and Its value to mankind. Notlco that
they did not worship Mary.
III. Wickedness Foiled (vv. 12-10).
God Intervened (v. 12). Notlco tho
Impotent rngo of tho enemy (v. 10).
Christ wns delivered. Herod was dis
mayed, nnd tho pcoplo wero desolate.
Suggestions: Tho cry "whero" of
tho humen heart Is here answered.
God answers nil honest searching. God
himself gnve his best gift (John 3:10).
God also desires our best gift. Wo
must worship Jesus as king. Religion
Is not for the Magi alone, nor for tho
common people ; It Is for all. Wo havo
not far to go to seek tho Christ Ho
Is even more thnn near, "For behold
l X stand at tho door and knock."

6REATER EFFICIENCY
I
Grow Grain in Western Canada,
Make Profits, and Show
Greater Patriotism.
The nation-wide cry of "More Effi
ciency" has now reached even tho most
remote agricultural sections nnd thcro
Is n general Interest amongst the farm
ers to Increase their products and to
reduce their expenses. The need of
foodstuffs Is greater thnn Iho world
has ever before known, nnd every ef
fort Is being used to meet the world's
food requirements, becoming moro
nppnrent every day. Whllo It Is truo
thnt this desire Is attested by n gen
eral patriotism, there Is nn under
lying factor In this extension work
to secure some of the benefits thnt nro
being offered by n rendy market nt
maximum prices. Wide-spread atten
tion has been given to the opportunity
In this respect In Western Canada,
whero fortunes nro being made In a
few crops out of grain nt present
prices.
It hns been found thnt the open,
level prairie enn bo cultivated for
wheat nnd other small grains nt a min
imum price, nnd during tho past few
yenrs the yields havo been moro than
satisfactory. Wheat crops of forty
bushel to the ncro hnvo been common
In Western Cannda In the Inst three or
four years, ond with n present avail
able price of over $2.00 per bushel this
means n return on Investment nnd
Inbor that cannot be duplicated else
where. This Is mnde possible by the
low priced lands that can be secured
for grain growing. Tho range In price
runs from $1R to $2:5 per acre, accord
ing to location nnd other local condi
tions. In this period of "moro agricul
tural efficiency" It Is apparent nt a
glance thnt the farmer on low priced
but high grade lands, growing his
grain nt a minimum cost, Is reaping
a golden harvest with the highest per
centage of profit.
Tho cultivator of high priced farm,
lands has n big handicap to overcome
In computing his profits on a $200 an
aero farm as compared with the agri
culturist reaping as great, If not
greater return from $25 an acre land.;
It therefore becomes a question for,
the farmer himself to answer, whether
ho Is doing himself nnd his country the
best service, by devoting nil his ener
gies to working high priced land that
yields no better return thnn 'land that
can be secured at one-eighth the
price. It Is a enso of getting either,
minimum or maximum quantity. Many
havo already decided on the alterna
tive, nnd with their spare money In
vested In and now working Western;
Canada lands, they nrc allowed to
speak for themselves. Apparently they
aro satisfied, for wo learn of cases
where on n $4,000 Investment, In one
year they havo had their money back,
with a profit of from B0 to 100.
Such Is ono of tho steps In progressive
ness now being demonstrated In the
effort to create greater efficiency. The
Canadian Government Is using every
effort to bring theso conditions to the
attention of tho agricultural world, In
order to secure the necessary Increased
grain production so greatly needed.
The farmer In Western Canada 1b ex
empt from all personal taxes.- His
buildings, stock and Implements are
not assessed; and every encourage
ment is given to farmers to Improve
and Increase their farm output. Re
duced railway rates are being offered
to new settlers to look over tho coun
try and to size up an unprecedented
opportunity in farm'-niT. Advertise

In recent years, but not so very long
ago they were quite unsatisfactory. A
Frenchman was once nrrested for hav
