New Light Shed Upon Origin of Languaget It is dow suggested that the student of language must look for origins In Africa. Poet or Marr. of the Itusslno Academy of Science, has announced that from the early Stone age, when peoples of African typo picturesquely dotted the European fringe of the Mediterranean, language lias been brought down with the retention ol some ot the Africold elements and words. The Hottentot language was a highly sophisticated speech. Instead ot a crude and primitive one. nit hough, perhaps, not us formidable as the ng glutinative Tagalni of the Philippines. Hottentot seems likely now to charm etymologists away from the progenitor longue of ihe Teuton and from Sans crit. It may make the Scythian plains hut tarrying spots for speech, rather than the homeland of modern related Introduced When Gen. Hugh Lenox Scott was superintendent of West Point lie fre quently visited the While House to see President Roosevelt. Once he ar • rived to Hod the President conferring with many different groups. After progressing around the mom from to group. Roosevelt turned sud to Scott. announced myself as *Coluliel from West Point,”* relates the ml In "Some Memories of a Sol The President took the skirts of b!s long frock coat In each hand, and making a curtsy like a girl said- quick us a flash: **i am Theodore Roosevelt. Presl dent o.’ the United States.’ and then laughed lond enough to be heard out side.” Value of Courtesy Courtesy, or uu expression of thanks can offset a mistake many times. The other evening 1 saw u man drive In front of another car at the corner ot J.yndc mid Washington streets when he had no right to do so. The party who had the right of way appeared to he peeved at first, hut as soon us the other nmtoris; shouted. **l beg your pardon." the reply came forth: “That Is perfectly all right.” Courtesy is rer out of place and It Is well to ; it at all tlmps even if only to keep |he peace.—Salem Nows.

THOMPSON If a canvass were made how many would vote to discontinue the Christ mas s<ea“on? It requires money to put on such a demonstration of unsel fishness and of thoughtfulness for those whom we love and esteem or those who seem to have been left out of the distribution of good things. It takes time to study the needs of those whom we want to remember, or to ascertain what would give the most joy. Money and time, energy and muscle-wear—these are some of the necessary essentials if the Christ mas spirit is to remain a part of our life. How many would vote to give it up? There would be so few votes cast that time would be wasted in making the oanvass. But there is another kind of Christmas giving. We refer to those who are in actual want because of sickness, unemployment, increased burdens because of the death of hus band or wife or the distresses which come in so many ways and to so many. A call was made in behalf of the white and black people of Mil- ledgeville who came under the head of needy cases. The ladies who were entrusted with the spending of this money made wise purchases. Baskets for eithcon fam ilies were prepared, each basket con taining bread, coffee, rice, sughr, oatmeal, canned soups, jelly, cake, randy and fruit. Fifteen bags were prepared for those whose wants were not so acute, the bags contained fruit, nuts, candy, and in some cases, cann ed goods. If you contributed to the “Empty Stocking Fund” your contribution was put to good use. It went into homes which, in all probability, you will never enter. It gave cheer to people whom you may never Bee. It relived distress among those you have no interest in, other than that both of you are a part of the same community. Your giving was the highest expression of the spirit of Christmas—giving to those who have no claim upon you, giving with no expectation of reward, even of thanks expressed in words spoken to your face. Now that you have begun nuch n good thing will you cease simply be cause the Christmas season is draw- \rg to a close? If the Savior ot mankind brought love and unsclfish- into the world, will you fail to do your part that his contribution might grow? The needs remain even though the Christmas .season is pass ing into a memory of the year 1U28. the homes into which your basket or bag was taken will continue to feel the pinch cf want. There will be need for coal, wood, food, medicine, clothing. The only source from which these needs can be supplied is your pocket book. Will you continue to open it? Will you let your heart re open, now that the Christmas season has it open? Will you con tinue to lend your support to those who are willing to give their time and energy that these needs might be intelligently dealt with? The after—Christmas season! It begins on December 26th, of one year and continues to December 25th, of the next year—What are you wil ling to do that the season might be kept alive?
