    THE GUIDITE CLUB
Santa Claus Will Be Guest of the Guidite Club
Good Wsl Xmas
Party Pec. ilia
With Christmas only 15 days off
•Id Santa Glaus has started from
his Artw renderoug with a huge
load of toys candies, fruits and
clothing addressed to the Goodwill
Christmas tree that is scheduled
for the evening of December 2T,
v he* the Guidite club shall play
hosts to thousands of children
throughout the city of Omaha.
Uncle Gil is putting forth every
effort to arrange for a free show
for aff Guidites and their friends
to he hrtd at the Rite theatre.
TJmie Gfl is urging all Guidites
to be IdM and obedient to their
parents in *rder that he will be
able t* maka a good report to
Santa Claus when he arrives on
the morning of the 24th with all
the nfoe things for good children,
as he has thready told Unde Gil
that he would not give any of the
children vthme parents mad a bad
repadl for them, any of the toy,
candies, or fruits, that he is bring
ing from his toyland warehouse in
the fhr North. So dear Guidites
let's be nice, by observing the fol
lowing ‘'dun’tS”—Don’t stay out
late at pig&t. Don't fail to do what
ever pwifrar or father tells us to
do. Don't take that which does not
belong to us. Don’t fight. Don’t
mark up our school bodes. Don’t
fail to have a good lesson for your
teacher. Dan't miss Sunday school.
These are Santa Claus’ orders.

OUR FLAG
There are many flags in many
lands,
There are flags of every hue,
Put there is no flag in any land
Like our own Red, White and Blue.
Then hurrah for the flag, our
country’s flag,
It's stripes and white stars too,
There is no flag in any land
Like our own Red. white and Blue.

A Song of Christmas
By Nine ta M. Lowater
From down the distant ages thru
the centuries dark and dim;
Comes a flash of light supernal
and the Tcho of a hymn.
‘Tis the light which shown from
HiYven, whpn Hhe child of
peace was born;
And the song was sung by Angels
on the first fair Christmas
mom.
Peace on earth, good will from
Heaven, how it rolled along
the sky.
And the ages all have listened as
the echoes passed them by.
Even now the star is shining and
its light is soft and clear.
And the angels still are singing if
We will but pause to hear.
Loud and louder grows the anthem,
nations swell the glad refrain.
Telling to the future ages all the
glory of His name.
Unto earth a song is given and a
Prince of Peace is born
Let us join the angel's chorus on
this Joyous Christmas morn.

Wards Often Misused
Do not say, “He had no other
alternatives,” nor, “He had three
alternattwes ” Alternative means
ffcur a ad novice. An amateur some.
Say, "He had no alternative,” or
‘He had an alternative.”
Discrimina'e in the uses of ama
teur and novice. An amateud some
times has the skill of a profession
's], A novire is a beginner and
never so skillful as a professional.
, Do not say, “The work is mighty
difficult.” Say ‘The work is very
difficult.” Mighty means possess
ing might; powerful.
While tJv; express'on “to grow
smaller” is often used by good
writers, it is just as easy to say
“to become smaller.” Grow means
to increase in size.
Do no* say, ‘ It was a painful
accident.” Say, “It was a ser ous
accident, resulting in a painful in
jury.”
Do not my, “I am real glad you
came.” Say, "I am very glad you
came.”

Christmas comes December twen

When all the children love to lough
and skip,
/ nd all the Christmas songs they
hear.
For Santa Claus they do not
fear.
Because he brings the toys, nuts,
and candy
Which make the tree look just
dandy
For this was Jesus Christ’s birth
day.
So all the people are happy and
gay.
