Unique Holiday FroIcs Which Delight
Children of Mexico.

Children of Mexico.
About ten days before Christmas in
the City of Mexico the puestos in the
Gale de San Diego begin to grow
festive with evergreens, flowers bright
berries and other greens brought in
from the mountains by the paisanos
to delight the eye and tempt the purses
of the promenaders. In the booths of
the neighboring Gale de San Juan
are displayed fruits. nuts and candies,
and still others offer angels, shepherds.
sheep, mules, oxen and other objects
suggestive of the Saviour's birth.
Probably the greatest attraction for
the Mexican children are the pinatas.
Peddlers may be seen sauntering along
the streets carrying long poles which
are strung with varicolored pinatas of
every description, draped with tinsel.
These represent flowers, fruits, ami
mails and even men and women, and
each contains jar filled with goodies.
They range in price from % centavos
to several dollars, according to their
degree of elaborateness The pinata
is suspended from the ceiling or hung
in the courtyard. All the family gath
er around 1t. A child is blindfolded,
turned around several times, then given
n stick and told to find and break the
pinata. If he fails after three trials
to locate II he surrenders to the next
in turn, and so on until lucky blow
skaters the pinata and the contents
fall, to be scrambled for. I

CHRIS STMAS WAITS AT
PUBLIC CHRISTMAS TREE.
Popular Old English Custom Growing
In Favor In America.


Christmas waits those bands of
singers familiar in England for several
centuries, have been less numerous in
recent years, but the custom, with GER
tain variations, is gaining ground in
the United States. The municipal
Christmas trees which will mark the
great holiday in many towns and cities
this year will have the singing of
Christmas carols and anthems as a
part of the exercises in connection
with the trees.
The town of Burlington, n. j., has
kept up the custom of the waits since
colonial days. Each Christmas eve a
band of vocalists, recruited from the
choir of st. Mary's Episcopal church,
start out an hour or so before mid
night and sing carols and anthems in
various sections of the city. They visit
the homes Of the rector, the curate and
members of the vestry and sing before
their doors. AS these homes are situ-
ated in widely separated sections of
the city, the singing is heard by prac-
tically all of the residents.
Citizens of the town who may have
retired early are usually aroused by
the singing. and windows in upper
floors are thrown open. AS the sing
ers move away after finishing the car
OILS the listeners yell greetings to their
neighbors. close their windows and re-
turn TO their cOZy beds.
In mnny of the houses before which
the singers render concerts the occu-
pants are expecting them, and they are
Invited in to partake of refreshments.
They can llnger but a little time, for
they must cover their arranged route
before the Ginning of the church bells
nshers in new Christmas.
