Russia. Christmas Comes Late.

In Russia Christmas occurs IS days
after our own. Perhaps one OF the
most interesting customs Of the season
Is the Russian Christmas feast. for
old and young alike. for which they
dress themselves In various masquerad-
Ing costumes and visit house after
house, accepting the hospitality Of
their neighbors. The Christmas sea
son is also notable for the fact that
the young girls try to find out whether
they will be married during the ensu-
ing year or not. Some of them at
twelve o'clock on Christmas Eve, Sc
cretly go out Into the street and ask
the first man they meet what his name
is. Whatever name he gives will be
that borne by their future husbands
such is the belief. Some OF the girls
are very much disappointed when the
name is not a nice one, or when the
man. as he will sometimes. calls him
self Satan or something similar.

THE CHRISTMAS TREE CUSTOM
Use OF the Young Everoreens 10 Re-
parded More ~ q Matter OF senti-
ment. Not Of Economics

NJ VERY year some mathemat.
ls, ical calculator figures out
that this country would be
N several billions richer II, as
nation, we abolished the
good, old custom of the Christmas
tree. Yes. In actual dollars and cents
valuation of our natural resources the
United States probably would be more
wealthy for the continued growth Of
the evergreens. However, We believe
no better return ever came from trees
than the true Joy which all mankind
gets from Christmas trees ut this the
greatest of all holiday seasons.
Nearly 100000 young eyergreens
20 upon the Christmas-tree market
each year, 100000 In New York aud
the New England states alone, and II
is an easy matter for an enthusiast
who Is quick with the pencil to figure
no the waste In our natural resources
by the annual loss of this embryo tim.
Der. The economic consideration Is
not entirely indefensible, for In the
Northeastern states particularly big
proportion of the trees come from pas
ture land or that which would be
cleared In the ordinary course of I'm
provement. Later. these trees would
be cut anyway. OF course, wholesale
destruction over watershed areas
should be discouraged as In any for
estry activity, but II must be remem-
bered that the Christmas-tree custom
Is one of sentiment. not OF economics.
