In every country where Christmas is observed

without a tree" would seem hardly Christmas at
all. To this rule" Russia is no exception and al
though conditions in Russia have greatly changed,
the tree most likely is still to be found an i'm

But there is at least one part of the old Russian
Christmas celebration that will be absent this
year. That is the noblernan's part in the evening

There they usually found an immense Christmas
tree awaiting them. Sparkling with lights and gilt
terlng with decorations that pleased their fancy
and their eyes were often almost blinded by tbe
glory of beholding the interior of the noblemap's
house-the tree and the breath-taking importance
of the moment caused the peasants to stand al
most silent staring at the sights.
Beneath the tree were piled inexpensive gifts.
and the tree also was laden with them. There
was sometimes a gift for each person present.
There was almost invariably sosae gift for the
head of each household.

In the farming sections of Russia Christmas eve
used TO be, and perhaps still is. a most important
event. AT sunset all the villagers assemble i'm the
principal street. and forming a procession, they
visited the homes of the resident nobleman, the
mayor and other celebrities and sang carols for
which they received coppers in return.
This was followed by a masquerade. The elders
of the village dressed themselves to look like cows.
pigs. goats and other animals in remembrance of
the nativity in the manger.
Then with the first twinkle of the evening star
on the horizon a supper was served. Then the
