Christmas in the Philippines.
(From Leslie's Weekly.)

Although they are dwellers in a
tropical country, where the envi-
ronments differ greatly from those
in their own land, the Americans
now in the Philippine Islands will
celebrate Christmas with quite as
much zeal and in nearly the same
fashion as the people of the
States. " So far as the soldiers
stationed there are concerned, the
authorities at Washington have
done their share to make the day a
pleasant one. What is said to be
the Largest Christmas dinner ever
sent from any port in the world"
was shipped recently from San
Francisco to Manila, on the trans
port Sherman. The good things
thus characterized were intended
for the military men in our Asiatic
possessions and their families. Ev-
cry member of the little army in
the Misunderstanding, also, it is
to be hoped, the native constabu-
lary-is to be supplied with reg
ular Christmas meal of the Occi-
dental kind. For this purpose the
Sherman carried from the Golden
Gate not less than $4,000 pounds
of turkey, FIVE hundred gallons OF
cranberry sauce. big cases of home
made mince meat for pies, and hun
dreds of tins Of plum pudding. In
order to convey these delicacies in
safety and good condition to their
destination, an immense ice-box
was especially constructed to con-
tain them. The fowls were all rails
ed in California, and were of the
finest quality. This generous con-
tribution by the government to the
typical observance of the great re-
ligious holiday is expected to put
Uncle Sans fighting men in good
humor and to lessen to some extent
that "home-sick feeling" which
frequently attacks the exile. The
personal friends in this country of
the soldiers have also taken hand
in adding to the latter's content
ment, by forwarding to them null
titudes of gifts of various kinds.
Nor will the American civilians
there be forgotten by the relatives
and friends from whom they are
separated so far.

BRITISH VS.. AMERICAN Bows.

Taken as a general proposition,
Kirk BOwdens assumption that the
English boy is superior to the Ameri-
can boy in the matter of learning a
mechanics trade and keeping at it is
a libel on the youth of this land. vhe
British boy who learns a trade is s,ill
despite the democratic advance in his
native country, subject to class con-
ditiOns and traditions. In the average
case he looks upon himself as having
been born to a station in which he is
destined to remain. He is not dazzled
by sudden flights of his fellows to
wealth and power. His forming mind
is diverted by no visions of a seat in
Congress or the chair in the White
House. He is shoemaker who sticks
to his last.
Contrasted with the spirit of worka-
day solidity thus indicated is the
vaulting ambition to reach social and
financial heights which frequently
causes the American boy to run and
leap where he might more wisely take
time to trudge. Vain dreams of quick
wealth and easy soaring become read
lily mischievous In young Minis. They
are far from inevitable to American
youth. But they find promotion in
an educational system rich In book
culture and regrettably poor in practi-
cal trades teaching.
