NO MATTER FOR woNDEKMENr.

large part of the secular press has awakened to the fact that there has disappeared from the rising gener- ation and the younger generation now in active life that familiarity and knowledge of Holy Writ which had been a marked characteristic of preceding generations of the Anglo-Saxon race through at least two hundred years, if not longer period. Numerous instances are cited tin articles discussing this situation of entire graduating classes, in schools and universities, who, when put to the test, could not locate once trite scriptural allus- ions, and in frequent instances some stumbling effort was made by the student to ascribe the sentiment quoted to Chaucer, Shakespeare or some master of English verse in a former generation and century.
 But the gist of the entire discus sion has been the loss to the entire people, in literary sense, which is the result of this general unfamil- iarity with the Scriptures, and in- variably the writer has wondered how it has all come about. They all truthtully allege that the Christ ian Bible is resplendent. from the first cover to the last, with literary gems of the higest order-that there are therein compressed a vast num- Der of types of the highest thought expressed in the purest and clear est cut English diction, and. fur ther, that familiarity with all that wealth of literary expression elevat- ed the thought and aspirations of those generations possessing it, while that lack of familiarity has brought to lower level the thought and aspirations of the generations under discussion.
 Without doubt there is much force in the statements presented as quoted above, but the remarkable feature of it all lies in the fact that none of those entering into the dis cussion have ever fathomed the cause or causes therefor at least none of those which have come under the observation of the writer of this article. But the cause seems perfectly plain. It has been the elimination of the Bible from the schools. About thirty or thirty five years ago there swept over the country wide aud clamorous de. mand that the Bible should not be used in the schools. Before that time in every school ir the land the days exercises always began by reading a chapter in the Bible, and a prayer by the teacher, or the teacher and the school uniting iu reverent recitation of the Lord s Prayer-the latter universally con ceded one of the most exquisite gems of prose anywhere extant. The chapter in the Bible was some times read by the teacher, and sometimes each pupil, in turn, read a verse; but whichever way all

mas tree is an occasion Of wild delight
and excitement to- the children, who
clamor to accompany Uncle Edward
or Uncle Simon as he starts out on his
important errand, and stringing Of pop
corn and gilded nuts IS left for the femi-
nine members of the family.
81 used to think said Mrs. Gibson,
that Christmas wasn't complete unless
I made one Of the party who hindered
rather than helped, bring the tree in
I'm all our family 1t was always the
custom to trim and decorate our aree
and hang the gifts up the day before
Christmas Then on Christmas eve the
tree was lighted up and we were all al
lowed to gaze our f1ll-but from respect
full distance. The servants were always
invited in to share this speculative view
and then we were sent to bed to dream
of what Santa Claus had put in our
Gus logging packages on the tree bore
our name"
Il can imagine how early you were UP
that morning" I suggested.
Yes, indeed" she answered, laughing.
bright and early we were marshaied
in the library and there we awaited with
what meager patience we could command,
the gathering of the whole clan. When
the distribution of the gifts began there
was no limit to our Joy and enthusiasm"
What hour of the day was set for
Christmas dinner?" I inquired.
Generally about or o'clock, never
later, and, of course, the dinner was
an occasion to which our cooks had been
devoting their thoughts and energies for
weeks past.
IAN old-fashioned Christmas dinner in
the South, to which at least twenty or
thirty persons sat down, was made UP
on the following lines We had:

1.-THE table was always decorated with
English holly and bit Of this was
stuck in the large. round pudding just
before the brandy was poured over it,"
us nam served with green salad a
Southern dish?" 1 asked. and is the
ham baked with champagne" for
thought Of course It couldn't be plain
boiled ham.
1--WE always serve sliced ham with
salad and our old Maryland and Virginia
hams are much too fine to be spoiled by
fancy cooking.
Punch was always a prominent fca-
huge china bowl which had been used
by our family on such occasions for
years. In the bottom of the bowl was
painted a picture and it was one CT or
family traditions that we must drink I'M
til the picture could be SEEN"
What did you do after the long dinner
was over?" I inquired.
after the dinner the older folks often
got about the huge fireplace in the hail
and talked and visited, while the. young
drive or horseback ride across country.
If we were lucky enough to have snow
then all the cutters were put in service
and we went spinning along over tba
roads, meeting friends and acquaint-
ances at nearly every turn.
"Often Christmas night was devoted to
a ball, huge affair, given by someone
in the neighbOrhood, and to this everyone

dances-Sir Roger de Coyerly and Var

mot at all. and perhaps that is one OF
the main points of difference between a
Southern Christmas and the Christmas
of any other section OF the country. No,
we devote the whole of the holiday week
to holiday entertainment and holiday
hospitality, and many and varied are the
entertainments given. First one large
house and its guests start the ball roll
ing and back and forth across the coun-
