they refuse to recognize the day, but

The parliament of 1914 passed an
act ordering all law abiding citizens
to observe December Is as a solemn
fast, to be spent in silent atonement
for previous Christmas days that had
passed in riotous living and merry
making.
Naturally the community did not
share in these hard and fast rules,
and many a turkey was surreptitious-
