Each card is signed by His Majesty.
Hitherto the queen has always chosen
a sacred theme, but this year she has
selected an old Danish custom as the
subject OF her picture. II tells a dainty
story Of Denmark, where every winter
when the snow has fallen the villagers
as a solemn rite place a bundle OF
wheat on tho roof OF their cottages to
feed the birds while food Is scarce.
The queens cards are always large IN

CONSTITUTIONAL CONVENTION.

Representative De Almond, OF Mis-
souri, Is OF the opinion that The time
has come for the calling of Constitu-
ticnh convention for The spurpose Of
proposing amendments to the Consti-
tuition. The Constitution itself pro-
vIdos FOR such conventions. Whenever
two thirds OF the members Of the
House and Senate deem it necessary,
Congress shall propose amendments. or.
on the application Of the legislatures
of two-thirds OF the States, shall call
n convention for proposing amend-
ments, which shall be valid when ratl-
He'd by the legislatures OF three.fourths
OF the states, or by conventions In
three-fourths Of the States.
This Is the provision made by the
trainers OF the Constitution. II is
plall that they intended to make the
adoption OF amendments so difficult as
to protect the Constitution from all
but the most necessary changes. That
this is a wise provision cannot he
doubted. II is claimed that nearly
two-thlrds OF the states have already
sent petitions to Congress for a Con-

THE EVOLUTION OF CHRISTMAS,
The Home Magazine.

II matters not that the Christmas
tree sprung from pagan ceremonial
that antedated the birth OF Christ; that
the holly and mistletoe so freely used
IN Christmas decorations are survivals
OF ancient Druidical worship, the
Christmas carol born OF tho hymns OF
the Saturnaia; and that II Is not
known whether December twenty-fifth
be the correct date Of the birth Of the
Christ-child; or that people--in Russia
and In other ountries--celebrate In all
earnestness and solemnity another day
as Christmas day, so strongly grounded
Is the Christmas belief, and so wide-
spread has become the desire for a f1t-
ting observance OF the day. that the old
forms and customs have lost their pa
pan Significance like the holly and mis-
tletoe, which, though once part OF
heather rite, are now used almost
wholly for decorative effect Few are
they who know that the mistletoe was
an object OF special veneration among
the Druids and that 1t was gathered
with great ceremony: and the Yule-log,

THE EDITORS GREETING.

From across the sea, out through tne
foggy shores OF the British coast, The
Editor Of The Deseret News sends
Christmas greetings to the people OF
Utah. With words OF good cheer he
halls the return % the anniversary Of
the most important event In the
worlds history--the natal day of the
mlghtiest son Of Man. Christmas carols
have been sung here for weeks proceed
ing the day Of days. by bands OF choris-
ters around the door-yards Of the
houses In Merry England. The story of
the Savlor's birth, which has never
grown old through twenty centuries. Is
told III verse and melody. and never
fails to attract attention.
The celebration OF Christmas as
general holiday has become an estab-
lshed custom in the Nov World as
well as In the Old and it keeps before
tho minds Of the multitude the coming
into the world. as the Babe Of Bethle-
hem, the master mind OF all the ages,
Hail to the Prince of Peace. the Mighty
One, the Lord Of Hosts!
Peerng through the six thousand
miles Of distance, the editor sees the
city OF tho Saints behind the bulwarks
OF the everlasting mountains snow
capped and grand; the temple, the tab
ernacle, the assembly hall. the public
buildings, the private mansions, the
peaceful homes, the business marts. the
smiling faces OF The passing crowds,
and away OF to the west the simmer
Ing glory Of the saline sea, lie feels
THO vigor Of the bracng air. he hears
tho voices Of the splendid choir, the
glorious tones Of the wondrous organ.
and even the heart-beats of the loved
ones at home. while the coudless blue
OF the armament is glorious over all,
and the spirit OF peace rests upon that
spot Of earth. favored among the ma
tons.
At this glad Christmas time surely all
hands should join in friendship ANA
Fraternity. No distinctions Of creed or
party or rank or station should block
the free flow Of happiness and good
Will. Feuds should be forgotten, faults
be forgiven, dlscord be banlshed, and
the song Of the angels at the morn Of
the day we celebrate should echo in
every heart.
Utah, the land we love, ought to be
the very inner home OF sweet liberty.
