THE "WlDE OPEN" SUNDAY.

Public sentiment is justly arrayed
against the proposition Of permitting
the five cent theaters of the city to
operate on Sunday. This may appear
as an inconsistency on the part OF the
Palladium. which favored legalizing
Sunday baseball. And it would be an
Inconsistency were it not for the fact
that there is a vast difference in the
arguments between the two.
Sunday baseball affords an oppor-
tunity for the man who has to work
the other six days OF the week, to wit
ness good clean sport and be in the
pure air. It means recreation under
the most healthful conditions.
That can not be said for the five
cent theaters. Where the baseball
fan Is amused for two hours or more
In the pure air. the five cent theater
bug" II entertained for about twenty
minutes in q room that is artificially
ventilated.
From this 1t can be seen there is
no comparison in the benefits Of the
two.
And as to putting the proposition on
basis of Sunday opening II you use
our electricity"-the City of Richmond
can not afford to do business on that
plane.

representative Of the Mikado will not be
settled in his new environment In time
for much holiday merrymaking. Speak
ing Of this change in the congress OF
nations on the Potomac, it may be added
that this year finds an unusual proper
ton Of newcomers from all climes who
are spending their first Christmas at

For all that life in the diplomatic CORDS
is a continual succession Of comings and
goings. as the statesmen are shifted from
one capital to another at their govern

tiously wave the Stars and Stripes at
every possible opportunity when abroad
Then there is a third class who take a
middle ground - combine some OF the
Christmas ObsePvances Of the homeland
with adOptions from the standard Ameri-
can program for the day.
The presence Of children in a dipio-
matte household at Washington usually
goes far to influence the introduction Of
American beliefs as to the proper OBJ
servance Of Christmas. Especially is
this the case if the young foreigners
attend American schools. This is the
explanation Of the adoption Of the Ameri-
can Christmas at the Chinese Legation.
A pioneer In this sort Of missionary
work among the Chinese who rank rs
Uncle Sans official guests is Mr. Yung
Kwai, his wife and children. Mr.. hwai
has been for many years past almost
continuously on duty ut the Chinese Lee
cation as secretary; he has an American
wife and his children attend the public
schools and speak English and Chinese
with equal ease. Some years ago the
Kwais introduced the American Christ
mas tree at the Chinese Legation, and
the success of the innovation from the
standpoint Of the juveniles i'm the house
hold led to frequent repetitiOns.
At that other leading oriental branch
Office Ia Washington, the Japanese En-
bassy, there will, it is expected, be little
observance Of Christmas this wear, for
all that the Japanese are ordinarily Will

The explanation IS found in the fact that

procession calls up for the naval officer
memories OF his own Christmas exploits

the appeal for cIemency.
As has been noted earlier in the article,
some form Of entertainment, preferably d
minstrel show, closes a Christmas cele-
bration aboard a warship, and all hands
are usually allowed to stay up until a
later hour than usual In order to insure
the full enjoyment Of the entertainment.
OF course, the actors and musicians are
all selected from the body Of the mid
shiumen. and with that HberaHty char
acteristic OF the bluefackets 20 time or
labor or expense IS spared TO invest the
production with the proper scenery and
costumes. OF late years the popularity
Of these amateur Christmas entertain
ments on Our floating f0rtresses have
been threatened by the Introduction OF
monographs and mOTing-picture ma
chimes. To no class Of Americans, unless
# be the farmers, has the perfection OF
the Found-producing instruments meant
more than to the boys aboard ship. and
combined with the best modern ap-
paratus for displaying animated pictures
