well maybe dear reiulcts it scarcely seems passible that it is so tiijar chrlstmsm time one more year hua sllpkd around and ii i write i wonder if in that year we have accomplished much tih individuals there luis been m much ttuil has been our duty and no daubi thvrt u just as much that will be needed dolnp in the new year so right now wouldnt it be agped plan if we all took slock of what we might be responsible fir and then not let the idea slip uway without doing anything about it but keep it right before us and dii our share all year long you know wr can do so much espec ially if we ask guidance in prayer that brings to mind a prayer that i heard u litue girl make not so very long agu she wat a very particular little girl al ways trying to do what she thought was right her prayer closed something like uilb goddess mather and daddy god blrs my sct and my brothers and all my itunts and uncles god bless all the folks that 1 love and then after a long puusr site added yes god bless even those 1 dont love now the thought has gone through my mind that if we all pray like that and cook the matter of ihose we didnt lovr to our father we would be surprised to find how few people we didnt love and in return how man people would love us well isn i it strange how well laid plans and ideas can go so far astray llerr was i last year trurklng that i wus right when i told editor dills that the women wuuld like a place all their own u read und write letten in and wha happened a few letters did conie und then no more well i was wrong but i tituunly am dlsippouited edtuir dhls has pruitrd arc plecw i have sent in but who tuuwt i may be utr only mie that relict our culunui and may be taking up aiatct uiat could br used ir mote mipurtant things one thing i am sure abou and that ifc uiere li ntttlilng mure important than the message i want u close with i want to say lo you all that i sin- r rely hope that the chrstmas season will u- a happy joyhi time and that the new year will be a year of health wealth and happiness for you and yours lovingly yours nurse elkram no copying a happy ohrlsttnas to you all and may you each lh your own way bring happiness to others after all isnt that the real secret ot our enjoyment of christmas if we were all seeking our own pleasure just concentrating on having a good time without much thought of others there would be very little evid ence of goodwill among ua at this time would there i imagine there will not be many people who will have time to reaewtbj column the day it is printed but perhaps at christmas or the jayfter you will have a chance to catch up with yoar reading and perhaps you will let me come into your home at least an paper to spend christmas with you so that i j may have a chance to say hullo and wish you a happy holiday well i haw come to the conclusion that i must be frightfully slow for i have been continually on the go for weeks and weeks and yet have hardly had a minu to spore bo i am looking forward itctafter chiistmas as well as to j christmas itself in the hope that there will be less of a rush around here by the way to those who arc really fond of good music do you know- ther u a real musical treat coming over obl on sundays when harry adakln gives violin selections not only that but he gives such splendid talks in betwtcn not on music exactly but rather ideas that throw a new light on some ol lifes problems next sunday that is christ mas day he comes an the air at 230 pm dant miss him ir you like music the tone of his violin is something toremem- i bcr and or course his technique is perfect not only that mr adoskln has pramivid us as a christmas gift a formula of three words that will bring success if we so desire dont forget- cbl on christmas day at 230 pm i am telling you but j 1 am terribly afraid i may forget it my- self and i dont want to the christmas cards and porcele have started coming in not so very many irecls because most of our relations arc in england and wo have rather to cut down on the cxohange of gtrts ex cept in a few caus as the postage on j even a small parcel to o across the atcr costs so much j partners mother sent a lovely big photograph of herself which delighted us all daughter-had- her photograph talccn i too mainly to send to englandand we luipe it will give pleasure as well we expect my sister and her young son on thursday to stay until after christ mas daughter is coming homt- on snt- urduy until christmas night so z am hoping and praying the weather will stay goud as it will be my job to dmv down lor her

description 1 we could d without it he would not have u iur on the place however my drivkig toubkb will sixmi be over or will they that is to say son will be sixteen the very last day ol this month and one at hir birthday presents will be a drivers permit which doesnt mean that he will b allowed to have the cor and go chas ing all over the country but it does meun that if for any reason i cannot or do not want to drive son will be able u iolte the car instead as a matter of fuel lw- can handle tile car far better than i can and i am sure he would be able to think quicker in an emergency 1 am inclined to be overcautious but i hope wilh that example son may hit the huppy medium tomorrow is chickenpicking day again and thank gdbdneas it will be lhe last big picking this season whoa we are at this joo i usually catch the birds in the fattening pen weigh them uvcrnighi partner does the killing and moat of the picking i anlah them off that is to say i have the grand job of picking out the pin feathers and wash ing the feet and beaks and weighing them ogam lut week parmer thought i was having quite a time sorting out the chickens and taking them over to the barn so he volunteered to help me 1 uikl aim i could manage however he insisted so i handed him four chickens to take to the barn while i weighed tlie others and then wlnn i picked up my bird u carry out i found part- per liad shut the door oil tlie outside which meant i was shut in that was rrrtainly a great help and will you believe it after all the jiitiigs 1 said partner dldhe same thing a second time of course i didnt

herself is capable of giving it to others oho died not of ty phoid fever but from the natural con sequences of old age having had a pr- nlytlc stroke six yearn ago in her earlier days mary mallon a plump irish cook was in the course of 0 years the innocent carrier of typhoid fever to 28 persons in seven families where she had pursued her occupaton finally the healthauthorltlea of new york stopped further activities m that line by her mterment it was found that no sort of treatment lessened her powers of transferring the germs of fever so she remained in close confine ment until her death about 4 of persons who have re covered from typhoid fever remain carriers of the disease the dancer of such persons s5bvlous particularly ir like mary mallon they are cooks or handle food with the enormous re duction in late years of typhoid fever cases the number and consequent in fluence of the typhoid carrier have been correspondingly decreased typhoid fever is invariably carried from person to person by food fingers or files water milk and other food articles are the common vehicles of transrrus- atoiii the disease is also carried to food by flies but since the disappearance of the horse from the street traffic this type of transmission has been materially reduced typhoid fever once the bcrouge of large cities and great armies is on the way to oblivion thanks to the
