Christmas North and South.

Washington celebrates Christmas in
the northern style, a la New England
that Is to say, by simply closing the
stores and keeping quiet-but AleXan-
dria, Va, celebrates in good old south
ern style, with rockets, roman can
dies, frecrackers. torpedocs, noise and
general rejoicing hilarity.
Northern people often wonder why
1t IS that the southerncrs celebrate
Christmas like the Fourth of July and
the latter holiday like Christmas, but
the reason is not far to seek. L he
southern Christmas is the Christmas
of old Merrie England, Germany and
France before the reformation. Accord
Ing to the view of all good and ortho-
doX Christians of that period. the birth
of Christ was an event such as to
cause delight and general rejoicing
among men, and consequently they
celebrated the Lords birthday with
the proper demonstrations of rejoicing.
The Puritans were inclined to frown
down religion of this sort, so that

and Puritan each celebrated the day

Christmas Eve
In Rural England

1t was a brilliant moonlight night,

going" said my companion. laughing,
"and is eager to arrive in time for
some of the merrimcnt and coed cheer
of the servants hall. My father is
devotce of the old school and pridcs
himself on keeping up something of
old English hospitality. He was al
ways scrupulous in eXacting our holi-
days and having us around him on
family festivals. 1t was the policy of
the good old gentleman to make his
children feel that home was the hap
piest place in the world, and | value
this delicious home feeling as one of
the choicest gifts Il parent can bcStoW.'
The squire ushercd us at once to the
company, which was assembled in a
large, old fashioned hall. 1t was com
posed of different branches of numcr-
Gus family connection. They We're

wooden horses, penny trumpets and
tattered dolls about the floor showed
traces of a little troop of fairy beings
that had frolickcd through happy
day.
