nefcent being who remembers all boys
and girls, regardless OF whether they
be rich or poor-the only qualification
for remembrance being that they have
been good"
But Santa Claus can't work without
a little assistance, as all grown-ups
realize. So, unless the more fortunate
with the children, there are going to
be many disappointments on Christ
mas morning. and some childish
hearts are going to ache. The Santa
Claus Girls realize this. and have or
ganized to carry happiness to the less
fortunate little mes. Through the
columns Of The Herald they are ask
ing friends of; the children to send
contributions. hat some Christmas
candies, fruit, ETC.. may he purchas-
ed, and! materials for the toys which
business men are making, may be paid
for.
The county officials, and members
OF their STATS at the court house have
felt the call of keeping the children's
faith bright, and their Christmas
cheerful, and have. contributed $4,000
toward the fund. This generous dona-
ton will help provide Christmas par
GELS for a number OF children.
Here is what m little girl, who
with her brothers was remembered by
the Santa Claus Girls last year, has
written:
Dear Santa Claus Girls:
I hope you won't think I'm selfish
to write you again this year, to ask
you to remember my two little broth
ers again this Christmas. I wrote to
you last year, and you were so good
to US all. But this year If you can't
spare n things for me, it will be all
right, only I do want you to bring
something to my two little brothers.
You see I am IL years old, and it
won't make 30 much difference to me
IL I don't get the things I want but
my little brothers have been planning
so much on what Santa Claus will
bring that I can't bear to not have
them get presents

 N MIss- IRENE MANN, who has NWll recently returned from Japan, GvS where she served as mis- eionary for 35 years, was in Birming- ham during the past week and spoke Thursday afternoon at the Auxiliary Mission Study institute, which was held at St. Marys church Wednesday and Thursday.
 She told many interesting things of the customs of the country and of the Hives of the girls and women.
 Most people" said Miss Mann, have an idea that Japan is warm country, but such is not the case. In the north ern part of the country 1t is very cold, with the snow often five or six feet deep, while the southern part is much Hke the climate at Norfolk. The houses are very frail and the people do not depend, as we do, upon artificial heat for warmth, but upon an abundance of clothing, and they use fire boxes, hibachi, for hand warmers. These boxes are made of wood, lined with tin, and are filled with ashes, on top of which is small fire of charcoal, and when they go out they cover the fire pver with ashes.
 ~Tbe tea kettle is constantly kept on 1he fire, and every one who comes in As treated to tea and cakes. It is con- sidered very inhospitable not to serve tea. Even at the shops, tea is served outside to shoppers and every func- taon even funerals begin and end with tea.
 :. "AIl schoolgirls wear a skirt and 8 modified kimono, varying In color with the different schools, and they go about the streets freely Education is com puisory, and the girls have many school fetes among themselves.
 When a Japanese maiden reaches the age of Is, or thereabout she is ex- pected as a matter of course to marry. ehe is usually allowed her choice in regard to whether or not she will marry q certain man, but she is ex- pected to marry some one, and not to be too long about 1t.
 The marriage is usually arranged by some friend, who acts as go- between The wedding ceremony is quite simple, but very formal, the principal feature being the an-san-ku- do, three three nine times-that is, both the bride and the bridegroom drink three times each out of three cups of different sizes. This ceremony is purely social and does not affect the validity of the ceremony any more than the wedding reception in Amer lea As marriage is a civil contract, tt5 validity depends upon the ofTclal registration of the couple as man and wife.
 There is a regular prescribed list of household goods which the bride is supposed to carry to her new home, besides clothes enough so that her hus- band, will not have to buy her any for many months to come. She is also expected to carry presents to all her husbands household. As bride and groom are usually very young. it is customary for them to live with the bridegrooms parents.
 Every Japanese family of any im- portance has it's own crest which is embroidered into the sleeve and the wife must adopt the crest of the hus- { bands family, leaving off that of her own.
 The Japanese women have many pa \ triotic societies, with an especially ef-

ficient Red Cross association, in which I worked with them during the> Ja panese-R Russian war.
 They have many temples which are kept open all the time, with priests in attendance, where the people go to make short prayers. On festival days great crowds throng the temples and the priests chant services in lang uage the people do not understand. The men usually sit on one side of the temple and the women on the other.''
 Miss Mann said she was in Virginia 3 week ago and found that the Ja- panese were like the Virginians; they worshipped their families"
 They are a merry vivacious people, satisfied with & simple life Scattered throughout the year are the various flower festivals when often the whole family visits the famous garden, where the plum, the double pink cherry, the chrysanthemum, the iris or the azalia attain their greatest loveli- ness, and spend the day out of doors in enjoyment of nature, supplemented by art,
 "At the time of the flower festivals" said Miss Mann, the people are at tired in their best clothes, the women in their handsomest kimonos, with their best obis, or sashes, which are the part of the costume in which its richness and elegance is principally dis played. With their bright-colored parasols and fans, the men, even priests and soldiers. carry fans as a part of full dress; the scene is like a bit of fairyland.
 Tt is said that the habitual serenity of Japanese women is due to their free- dom from small worries. The fashion of their dress never varies; hcusekeep- ing is simplified by the absence of draperies and small ornaments to gather dust, and the custom of leav- ing footwear at the entrance keeps out mud and dirt.

CRIMSON DEBATING CCHEnITI.

Howard college will open it's debat- ing season Tuesday evening, Febru- ary 8, at 8 o'clock, with a contest be- tween her affirmative and negative teams, in the college auditorium. In- terest in debating has been quite prev alent this year at the East Lake insti- tuition. and students and friends of the college are optimistic over the pros poets of a brilliant season. The sAues- tion to be discussed is: Resolved. that the Philippine Islands Shoald Be Given Their Independence at the Next Regular Session of Congress" The de- bate Tuesday will be between the two teams which are representing Howard in the intercollegiate debates. The affirmative will be upheld by Mir. J. J.. Bell and MT. l. c. Wilder. who will later meet Mississippi college. The negative will be presented by Mir Earle Powell and MT. G. c. Kelly, who will have the negative with Mercer university.
 This affair is introductory to How ards debates with these two southern colleges, and is especially interesting as it will be the first opportunity those interested have had to compare the strength of the two teams and to fore. cast the outcome of the contest with Mississippi and Mercer. It will be helN under the joint auspices}of the Philo- mathic Literary society and the de- batting coach, MT E. E. Cox, president of the Philomathic will preside.
 The debating coach has secured the services or three well-known citizens of Birmingham as judges: Rev. MT Edmonds, pastor of the Independen, Presbyterian church; Mr. Harris. ed itor Birmingham News. and MT. Smith, principal of Ensley High.
