CHRISTMAS IN MEXICO
A RELIGIOUS FESTIVAL.

NHRISTMAS celebrations in Mexico
u differ greatly from ours and usual
ly last for several days. Bright
lanterns suspended in the air proclaim
the glad tidings of the holidays, and
every Mexican jacal, no matter how
humble, puts out its beacon to light the
steps Of the Saviour should he per-
chance appear. The story Of the birth
Of the Redeemer is annually portrayed
in all Mexican towns and in a sym
bolic language which the most igno-
rant can readily understand.
The performance is given To- fifteen

DECEPTION.

The essence Of lying is in decep-
ton, not in words. A lie may be
told by silence, by equivocation, by
the accent on syllable, by glance
Of the eye attaching a peculiar sig
ni6cance to a sentence, and all these
kinds Of lies are baser by many de-
grees than a lie plainly worded.
No form Of blinded conscience is so
far sunk as that which comforts itself
for having deceived because the de-
ception was by gesture or silence in
stead Of ulterance.-John Ruskin.

Wanted-A Brass Band.

Cairo is the biggest little city in
the state. II has street cars, elee-
trio lights. gas, theaters. paved
streets. water works. ane public
park and everything else that can
be found In the large cities, but 1t
has no brass band.
About the only time Cairo -
treated to the inspiring music OF
the brass band Is when circus
comes to town, or when something
unusual is occurring. such as the
opening OF the baseball season. or
the no ding of large convention.
We were treated TO concert
Monday upon the occasion OF the
formal opening OF the baseball sea-
son. The band, which was COM
posed OF talent from Cairo and or
er nearby towns. played probably a
half dozen airs. four of which were
rendered, as the band was being
whirled through the city on 4 mo-
tor truck. The two remaining se-
iections were played at the bah
park.
With population OF nearly l5,-
900, Cairo can hardly afford to be
without a brass band. We ought to
have a concert at ST. Mary's park
every Sunday and once or twice
each week There is enough talent
in the city to organize band ami II
no other means OF maintaining the
organization can be found, funds
could be raised by public subscrip-
ton.
We would like to obtain the views
OF few Of the local lovers Of music
on this matter. All required to OBJ
tain anything within the bounds of
reason Is public agitation.

indifference OF the owners and driv-
