AN ACTRESS
NEW YEARS

YEARS day." said the
III late Fanny Davenport. the
famous actress, brings
each year TO me very
pleasant recollection OF what happened
some years ago while playing 'Gis-
monda' in Los Angeles, Cal.
1T was after my New Years per
Torrance, and as | was about to take
my carriage young lady stepped up
and handed me a little box, which |
opened when l arrived at the hotel
and found 1t contained a jewel serpent
bracelet. There was a card inside with
the following inscription: No day bet
ter than this can we express our
thanks to our noble benefactor.' and
the name signed.
There Is quite story connected
with this girl. Years ago. when my
ather, the late K. l.. Davenport, made
his southern tours. at Savannah. Ca.
there was family who thought all
the world OF him. On one Of these
tours I accompanied my father. and
child as l was at that time l remem
bered our more than hospitable treat
ment by them.
The war came. and. like many other
they lost their all and
emigrated to southern California
When first visited Los Angeles with
Fedora I was taking a walk on the
street, and happening to look up
noticed a name which was very famil-
lar to me. 1t Immediately entered my
mind that they were our southern
friends. To make sure went upstairs
and found that they were conducting
In a very small way a millinery and

The New Years festivities in China

in making visits, exchanging gifts and

fifth the cows day. the sixth the
horses day and the seventh mans day.
During the first six days OF the year

@REDlTORS in China and like
wise those Of Chinese i'm Amer
~ lea are happy with the approach
Of New Year, because all old
debts must be paid before that date.
The last day of the old year in China
is a sort of national pay day, and one
who fails TO pay his creditors in full
on or before this day is disgraced In
the eyes of his acquaintances. Those
who cannot pay their debts at this
time must go into bankruptcy. The
laws In China permit creditor TO en-
ter a debtors house and take what he
wishes If there is no settlement of just
claims. Frequently families club to
gether and make all sorts OF com
promises to retain the good reputation
Of the clan.
The Chinaman's first business on
New Years day is to offer a sacrifice
to his gods. In homes table Is
spread with offerings OF food and
drink. candles and incense.
When Cinnamon who are friends
meet on the streets for the first time
on New Years they bow very politely
and shake hands saying. "Kung shi.
