CHRISTMAS III MEXlC0
A RELIGIOUS FESTIVAL.

CHRISTMAS celebrations In Mexico
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 sym
bollc language which the most igno
rant can readily understand.
The performance Is given by fifteen
plaJ ers. consisting Of Joseph and Mary
and the Infant Jesus, two archangels.
Lucifer and three OF his miniOns ana
number Of shepherds The costumes
are adapted to the Mexican conception
Of the characters and are novel In the
extreme All OF the costumes are got
up tastefully. and. while a strict con
formance with the requirements Of the
first century might rob Joseph of his
sombrcro, still 1t Is doubtful If the
lesson which II is desired TO instill In
the minds Of the people would be as
effective If all the minor details Of the
early Jewish fashions were followed.
The scene OF the play opens near
Bethlehem. where the shepherds are
tending their 1ocks, by host Of angels
appearing and telling them OF the birth
OF the Saviour and inviting them 10 fol
low To where he lies. They follow the
star which leads them TO the stable. In
the manger of which the infant rests
I'm the arms Of Mary and Joseph. While
rejoicing. Lucifer. armed with two
swords, appears and attempts to de-
stroy the child Jesus, but Is rcpulsed
by two angels. who keep watch over
him Not to be outdOne. Lucifer sum
mons three archdcmons, who fight with
the angels for the course Of half an
hour. resulting I'm the final overthrow
Of the evil one and his emissaries and
the placing Of the feet OF the angels
upon their nccks.
Then the shepherds break out into
rejoicing. and. while n portion of them
sing the praises of the Redeemer who
Is born unto them. others chant In n
harmonious strain the goodness and
mercy of God This feature accompa-
MED by muse on the harp and violin,
Is kept up until late hour each night
until the holidays are over.
one must understand the Mexican
people and their deyoutncss and in
tense religious feeling to fully appre-
ciate how strongly the presentation OF
the shepherds affects their minds.

HARD TASK AHEAD
OF TENNIS CHAMP.
This Season Will Give Mclaughlin
Real Test of Ability.

Maurice Mclaughlin. w. A. Larned's
successor as tennis champion Of the
United States of America, has been
coming forward rapidly Of late and
last season reached the top. But while
undoubtedly an expert Of great ability
it is still u question as to whether he is
or will be another Larned-a champion
able to protect his title through several
years to come.
Mclaughlin. in fact. has a hard
year looming directly ahead without
considering Il run Of seasons. In addi-
ton to his mate in doubles. T. C. Bun
dy. another Pacific coast star, Nc
Loughlin is sure to face high grade
competition from R. N. Williams. Wal
lace Johnson. Raymond D. Little and
Touchard.
If Larned is able to return in proper
physical condition to make an old time
fight the present champions troubles
will be even heavier. 1t is doubtful,
however, whether Larned will be able
to face a year of active competition.
With Larned out of it, it is rather
unlikely that Mclaughlin will be dis
placed unless decided improvement is
shown by several of his rivals. While

1CEBoAT GOING AT FULL SPEED.

ICEBOAT GOING AT FULL
Hook. is the greatest ice yachting cen
ter. Upon this shallow river scores
of the feet craft are seen. and the
swift racers shoot by faster than the
fastest trains that ever rolled on rails.
Lake Winnebago. Wisconsin, is an
other ice yachting center. The Lake
Winnebago Ice Yacht association is a
highly prosperous organization with a
tremendous fleet. Winnebago is thirty
five miles long and sixteen miles wide
in places. Its surface usually remains
hard for three months in each year, so
there is unlimited opportunity for ice
yacht sailing.
Few persons except those who have
ridden in one have an accurate con-
ception of the appearance of he Ice
boat. Save for the tall masts and sails
it bears little resemblance to the ordi-
nary yacht.
The body of the boat is shaped like a
cross with the top part forward. The
beam is barely wide enough to bear a
SOupAC VI ASuACo lJAA6 az ACA6CA'
On the underside extends a long rum
ner, which is usually the keel in the
sailboat. The ends of the cross are
shod with steel runners about a yard in
length. The rudder acts on the same
plan as that of the ordinary boat, but
is. also REINFORCED with a steel n
which cuts into the ice in swinging the
yacht around,
Once started the boat travels very
easily. even in a moderate breeze. Its
course is a series of leaps through the
air, in each Of which the boat rises sew
eral inches from the ice and shoots
through the air like a flying machine.
The return to the ice is so eve and
easy that there is not the slightest jar.
It is this continual rising and falling at
high speed which make ice yachting so
attractive.
With all its so called dangers ice
yachting has a fascination that cannot
be denied, and it is a glorious pastime.
With the racers wrapped up In warm
clothing and speeding faster and fast
err, with the air full Of electric sparks
and the ice sparkling ahead, the glow
ing cheeks and the flashing eyes Of the
participants in this sport attest its
wholesomeness. To steer in a bitter
wind and to stand on the windward
side Of an iceboat is n of the joys of
life.
For some boats records Of a mile a
minute and less are easy, while in q
heavy wind with perfect ice a speed OF
eighty miles an hour has been accom-
plished. In fact, there is a wonderful
record on the books Of iv%e-eighths of a
mile in fifteen seconds. or at the rate OF
a mile in twenty-four seconds. two and
One-half miles in Il minute. faster than
any automobile. %aeroplane or any ma.
