THE CHRISTMAS CENTURY.

The December, Century. ia-itself a
Christmas tree-laden with fine gifts
for all that approach 1t. Pictures, of
the kind for which The Century is
famous; short fiction Of unusual in
terest, rejecting the tenderness Of
the Christmas thought Christmas
verse, illustrated in color. articles of
substantial interest-all combine to
give this number a peculiar richness
to bet1t the season. Lucy Furman's
story, THE Christmas Tree on
Clinch," shows how the Christmas
idea ended a Kentucky feud- Vir-
ginia Yeaman Remnitz's THE Mira
Gle of Little Noel" is the Christmas
romance Of the brayest girl one
could wish to read about. Louise
Herrick Wall describes "a Christmas
Fete in CALIFORNIA; true story to
which the enchantment of the forest
gives air of romance, Some will say
that 1t reflects the real Christmas
spirit better than do nov and rein
deers and frosted panes. The
e"Christmas Echoes from Provence"
by Edith M. Thomas, are illustrated
verses that form a most attractive
feature In the Lighter Vein De-
|partment will be found humor ap-
%propriate to the S Lords
Spiritual in Jerusalem" will tell
Christmas readers of the peculiar
conditions of Christian worship in
the Holy Land.
There is a wealth of matter in this
number that would be attractive at
any season, but coming as it does at
the outset of the Christmastide it
adds to the e~njoyability of a distinc-
lively christmas" issue.
The second feature of The Cen
tury's "After-the-War Series''has to
do with the impeachment of Andrew
johnson. Gen. Harrison Grey Otis,
editor of the-Los Angeles Times, out
lines the causes of the attempt to
recall" Johnson, and Gen. John B.
Henderson, who was one of the Seven
senators who frustrated the impeach-
ment, contributes a series of person
al "reminiscences of Lincoln and the
leaders of the first few after-the-war
years. Edith Rickert continues her
analysis of the effect of fTaternities
on college girls. Jacob A. Riis dis
cusses the evolution of the New York
n%ewsboy, incidentally telling one of
the most amusing of Christmas
stories. Violet Oakley's color illus
trations of Dante's Divine Comedy, a
frontispiece of Mary Greene Blumen-
schien and a wood engraving by Cole
are among the art features.
