CHRISTMAS WEEK IN ENGLAND
Time When Scattered Families Are
United and Tender Memories
Are Revived.

HEANY and great are the changes
Wl which have occurred in England
since Dickens wrote "a Christmas
Carol" but they have not affected the
national love for the festival and the
determination to preserve unimpaired
the traditional warmth and heartiness
of its celebration. Christmas week Is
still the great week of the year for
the English people. 1t is the one week
when scattered families are reunited.
when tender memories and old asso-
Citations are revived, when friend greets
friend with CHEEKY expansiveness In
striking contrast with the character
istic reserve of the English nature,
SO, undemonstrative to those who do
not know 1t well, apparently so dis
tant and unsympathetic.
From Wednesday all business VIII
be suspended, not to be resumed till
Monday morning. The whole nation
will give Itself up to good cheer and
good fellowship, and for brief season,
all strife and controversy are hushed.
and peace, charity and concord reign
supreme.
