NEW YEARS DAY IN OLD
WALES

New Years day in old Wales was
not marked with such celebrations as
were some of the other days during
the Christmas season, but there we're
two customs observed which are
rather interesting. The first was the
visit of the male members of the
house to the homes of their neigh
bors on New Years morning. II was
considered unlucky for female to
enter the house first on New Years
day, but should this happen by acct
dent, It was supposed to be a sign OF
death in the family during the com.
ing year. SO firmly rooted IL this
old superstition in the minds of the
peasantry that some of the old folk
will engage men or boys to visit their
home on the early morning of New
Years day. was thus hired when
q boy on more than one occasion, and
took great delight In entering certain
homes as the first male visitor on
that day, for which l received few
pence.

He liked and admired girls, of course

in detached. impersonal sort Of way.

Mr.. Tyler was talking about Polly

He was discussing the countless
changes that were made last season
