The United States buys annually
many thousand dollars worth Of what

PortoRico'S
Christmas
Few Stockings No Chimneys

Christmas for the Americans IN PoE~
to Rico is pretty much the same, so
far as the observance of the day is
concerned, as Christmas at home or
anywhere else.
The chief difference Is in those char
acteristics of the season that are due
20 or are Influenced by the weather,
which more nearly resembles that OF
the Fourth Of July than winter holt
day.
There is the same spirit of good
feeling, the same CHEEKY greeting, the
same happy experience for the little
people II the shape of gifts frSm San
Ia Claus and that same more or less
sincere determination on the part Of
their elders to forgive their enemies
which sometimes they do.
Among the natives Christmas day is
a church holiday only, and 1t is very
generally observed by them as such,
but ii is not the occasion of family re
! unieas nor the Day of gifts, as witt
us.
The Porto Rican family gatherings
occur and their Santa Claus makes his
appearance on fhe 9th of January
'tEl dia de los Reyes or ''the day OF
the kings" cozmemorating the bring
ing Of gifts &c the infant Christ-but
Kriss Kringle manifestly does notcome
down the chimney for the very good
reason that 1tHere are no chinneys tc
Porto Rican houses. and for equally
obvious reasons he does not bring bis
reindeer nor his sleigh.
Instead OF hanging up their stock
ings the native children prepare a boz
filed with grass to represent manger
I and place it outside their doors on the
night of the 9th of January, just as
] the little Intch children IN Holland
I put out their wooden shoes.
Christmas will always be a church
holiday to the natives, and Ell dia dc
los Reyes viii also probably always
! be observed by them. But the Porte
Rican is quick to pick UP American
