CHRISTMAS SIGNS
AT ATLANTIC CITY
The Boardwalk Arrays Itself in
Holly and Mistletoe and
Evergreens.

Atlantic City, y. j.. Dec. l2.-The
Boardwalk is beginning to array itself
in molly and mistletoe and evergreens
in honor of the Christmas holidays.
The Boardwalk shops, from end to end
Of the Wooden Way, are blazing forth
in tinsel and gilt and all manner of
gaudy colored ornaments.
Everything imaginable in toys for
young America, Somebody wrote to
the newspapers that there would be a
dearth of toys during the 1914-r5 holt
day season because of the European
war But the representation has gone
awry.
Here. too, by the edge Of the sea
one can watch the peculiar processes
by which many toys and articles suita-
BILE for Christmas giving are made. The
Indians from the Far West-whose an
cestors 300 years ago roamed and
Cwred these beaches sit in tiny Board
walk shop booths and plat and sew and
string beads for the edication of the
palefaces and for the benefit Of their
own purses.
japanese artists turn out dainty sun
sets while you wait; Chinese silver and
wood smiths make little obsolete Chin
csc idols; Parsees will sell you any
thing from a Buddhist temple on
wheels, and with real bells, 10 the
daintiest bit of embroidery work.
Turks are here, with their quaint
offerings. Arabs. Calcutta Indians,
Persians. Russians, Hungarians - all
with their offerings. And they all seem
TO thrive upon the midwinter visitor
