"OLD SNOW FACE"
A. CHRISTMAS FATRY BTOKT, BY
ADLYX M. KEFFEB
Onec UpM a time there lived ■
named Ogutondoldo. but because ot' his
Long white beard be was called Snow
Faee. He *«• not • wicked pant. as
most giants are, but »ti kind and geu
tie and wiser than auy one else. He
Ined in a great polace at rtw t«»p of
the world and wheu people wanted ad
viee they would seok Old Suow Face,
tell him their troubles and, after taking
council with him. would come away
wiser and better men and women.
One night Did Snow Face sat smok
ing his pipe before the big fire place.
A puff of wind biew down the chimney
auu scattered the wood ashes about tfce
i;rate. Old Snow Face looked annoyed
at first, but when a fairv form came
out of the sparks the old man miled
aiul extended fcis bands in greeting.
"Welcome, little granddaughter,"
he »aid. "Oome and sit upon my knee
and teU me wha; brings thee hither
on such a wild night!"
"JVar Orandfuther," she answered
sweetly, "the Fairy my moth
er, sent me hither with six compan
ions. You know. .tear Grandfather.
'tis Christmas Kve. and the children of
the earth will be eager for their gifts
to-morrow. So make baste and tell
us what we can do.''
'•But where are the gifts aad who
and where are your companions?"
••They wait without," the little
FV&irv answered, "and are eager to
start upon the misuons of their mia
tress."
Old Snow Face clapped his hands
and a servant answered his call. He
bade him open the door and as he did
so six maidens entered, all as beautiful
as the rainbow, and bowed low before
their master. The Fairies were always
clad of a chance to visit Old Snow
Face, for he was kind and good and
told them wonderful stories of his
childhood aud lus visits to the earth
people; but morning was drawing near
and there was a great deal to be done,
so he patted each lovely head gently
and said:
"Mv ehildreu, it is almost Christmas
morning. There is a great work to be
done, and yon are to do it. You are
to carry the gifts to the earth people.
Your (>ueer has made a wise selection
aud is sending to earth six of her most
precious gifts. Be careful in your dis
tribution. Leave rot too mueh here nor
too little there! Be fair and just and
when you return, she who has done her
work the best shall receive for a re
ward anything she desires!" And,
leaning in his great golden chair,
he called each in turn.
"What takest thou to man?" he
asked of the first.
'' I take beauty," answered the
lovely creature. "To the men I take
strength and beauty of form: to the
women beauty of face and figure."
Then the second maiden stepped for
ward and to the question put by Old
Snow Faee she said:
"I take riches. Gold and silver I
shall sbowet among men so that they
shall want for nothing that money can
buy.''
••And thou?" asked Old Snow Face,
smiling at the third fairy.
She came timidly forward and an
swered with a glowing face:
''l take love —love to meu and
maidens. Think thee that 1 shall be
welcome?"
Old Snow Fate smiled at her kindly
and answered:
'•lt is for thee to discover how much
the earth needs Love."
At that the fourth maiden stepped
forward—a radiant creatnre with gold
en bar and *" arkling eyes.
'•Aud, thou little one. what takest
thou to man?"
•'I take happiness,' she reptied. "To
rich and poor, young and old, I take
that whi h ought to be in every house
hold."
"You will do well to visit every
household,'' »aid Old Sucw Faee
gravely and, turning to the noxt maid
en, he saw that she entwined her arms
lovingly about her companion.
'•May we not go together, oh Mas
ter? My sister is timid and wishes my
support. We take Peaee and Good
Will to earth."
"Surely sureiy. you may 20 togeth
er.'" <aid < >Ui Snow Face gently. Take
care vou do not lose Good Will."
So the six lovely fairies departed to
take their Christmas sifts to man. Old
Snow Face aud his granddaughter
stood at the window and watched their
descent to earth.
"I wonder who will claim the re
ward," said the little fairv, her eyes
bright with eagerness .jid expectation;
but Old Snow Face was busy watching
the Christmas messengers.
'' Beautv enters first." he ex-
claimed. "Oh, how ;;la L are the maid
ens for her coming. And the youths,
see how thev rejoice in their strength
and beautv of form!"
•"But look. Grandfather; see how
distressed yonder maiden looks! She
is nor pleased. She thinks her sii<er
i* more beautiful than she. And see
that tall, straight vouth' He wishes
to show his strength by quarreling
w-ith his brothe r . Oh. Beauty. I fear
thon has not done well; bnt look!
Riches comes to shower gold among
them. Sorely now they will be giad.
But as they looked thenr «aw Greei
enter and each man wished to get more
than his neighbor and those who had
the most were wishing for mc.re things
trhat wealth could buy. They wished
for health aul contentment, but these
they were told could not be bought
with richer
Theu Ixne came bashfully to the
rescue. A great warmth crept into the
hearts of men and the little fairy gave
freely and generously of ber gift.
'Twas the best gift offered so far and
men clasped it to their breasts and a
great >-alm fefl upon the earth. The
lore fairy turned away with tears of
gladness in her lonely eyes, but no
sooner had she started on her home
ward journey than she felt all was not
well.' She looked back and saw ber
gift being trampled upon by some and
torn from the breasts of others, and
what she had intended as a good and
IvMutifnl cift had turned to fierce and
raging taasion.
Old Snow Face looked troubled. AH
wa« not going well; but soon his eyes
brightened, for Happiness had come
dancing be' way into the lives of men.
They forgot the other gifts and took
Happiness to tbeir boeom. Nothing
else seemed to count as they held 'hap
piness in their arms.
Old Snow Face smiled gravely as he
turned to his little granddaughter.
"See, little one. The last gifts to
men are entering the earth. Peace and
Good Will are at the door."
And. just as he bad said. Peace and
Hood Will stood hand in hand waiting
to add their gifts to the others. Men
looked in wonder at the two beautiful
strangers and then held out their
hands in greeting. Beauty, Riches,

OIL PROGNOSTICATIONS
Wildeatting in Missouri Discussed by
U. S. Geological Survey
Washington, D. C., Dec. 18.—The al
most insartitible demand for gasoline
and other petroleum products seems to
increase as fast as new oil pools cau
be discovered. Even the present slump
in the oil industry of this country on
account of the European war has failed
wholly to check the skirmish line of the
wildcatters. One of the regions of late
invasion is Northwestern Missouri.
Advancing from the t>ig pools of Okla
homa northeastward weross Southeast
ern Kansas, wihere pools of modest
production were found Loug ago, the
wildcatter is now testing the ground in
Missouri in the region of Leavenworth,
Kan.
i Heretofore the few tests made in
I Northwestern Missouri have not met
[ with very good results. Now, in order
Ito reduce the number of failures as
far as possible, the drillers have asked
, the advice of the Missouri Bureau of
[■Geology and Mines and the United
! States Geological Survey, which uot
[ long ago completed a joint examination
'of the region.
In rw»j>onse the geologists have pre
j j«ired an advance statement to the ef-
I feet that conditions specially favorable
I for the occurrence of a strong pool
'have not been found in the Leaven
worth and Bmithville region, though the
j geologic structure at several points
1 which they mention is considerably
i better than at others. According to
| their statement, there would appear to
1 be a fighting chance of finding oil or
gas in small quantities in this region,
though, far from finding another great
Glenn pool, the driller must not be
surprised if he gets nothing more thau
a showing of oil and gas.

Proposed Workingmen's Compensation
Bill Is Probed by Experts Be
fore Industrial Commission
Members of the State Industrial Ac
cidents Commission, who held their
final hearing on the proposed Work
men's Compensation bill, at the capital
late yesterday, were informed by C. S.
Bunting, a Philadelphia insurance ex
j>ert, that the cost of operating work
men's compensation in Pennsylvania
for a vear would approximate $lO,-
000,000.
Mr. Bunting based this calculation
upon the experience of New York, ll.e
figured there would be about 28,000
plants of various kinds covered and
that the total of the claims and ad
ministration cost under the proposed
plan would require that outlay yearly.
He also suggested that the State tax
upon insurance under the compensation
act should be set aside in a reserve
fund instead of going into the genera!
revenue of the Commonwealth. This
tax will amount to about SIOO,OOO a
year.
James H. Maurer, president of the
State Federation of Ijabor, said that
he thought all workmen would eloct
to go under the compensation act; but
he asserted that no farmers or domes
tic servants had asked the federation
to lend its efforts toward being in
cluded in the law. Mr. Maurer objected
to the medical examination feature and
said it was not needed. In closing he
! said that the accident prevention move
ment had grown by leaps and bounds
and that manufacturers were as eager
[to work out "safety first" ideas as
workmen. Conditions are improving so
rapidly, he held, that "workmen's com
pensation need not scare anybody."
Other speakers included W. H.
Hotchkiss. former Insurance Commis
sioner of New York, who gave some de
tails of the difficulties into which Weet
Virginia had gotten with the insurance
of its compensation; Newell Bradley,
Philadelphia, who urged physical ex
amination, and Francis Howie and J.
W. Henderson. Philadelphia, who dis
cussed the proposition of having con
suls look after the interests of de
pendents of aliens who live abroad.
