FUN, FUN sec the beginning Of the

may be one OF the songs sung by
Galatians in church after midnight
mass on Christmas, but we doubt if
it is in any way related to the ancient
ceremonial dance still to be seen every
year in the Cathedral at Seville. The
music and the dance of the children
are described as decorous and solemn
in the extreme, and they DO not take
place on Christmas, but at the fcsti-
