HOW JAPAN GREETS NEW YEAR
Custom Of Oriental Countries Is to
Give Special Performances In
the Play HOUSES.

THE Oriental methods Of greeting
= the New Year differ greatly from
ours. In Japan, as well as in other
Oriental countries, special perform
ances are given in the theaters.
In the temples and shrines priests
and attendants entertain the people
with special dances. The Kagura, or
Sacred Dance With Music, is the ia
vorite. for while it is being given
prayers are offered for the continued
happiness of the nation during the
coming year. This very old dance is
performed by young girls, while the
priests are the musicians. All are in
appropriate costume.
Another ceremonial, which has been
handed down for centuries, is the Shu-
SAL or Dance Of the Ancestral Sane
tuary. THIS Is given within the palace
by the imperial family on January 8,
and it celebrates the founding Of the
imperial house, centuries ago.

PERSECUTION OF NO AVAIL
oidtimer Tells Of Efforts to ExtermI-

Worse Than Useless.

Watching an elderly man scattering
cracked corn to City Hall park spar
rows the other day stirred reminis-

"They treat sparrows differently
than they did twenty-five, years ago."
he said. "Guess they discovered they
couldn't get rid Of them and decided
to make them comfortable.
"A quarter of century ago many
communities made determined efforts
to kill Off sparrows. State and, county
authorities offered bounties of one
cent head for the birds. Boys made
considerable pocket money shooting
the creatures and in places men made
a business of trapping them. They'd
spread great nets over the roofs of
barns and then rout the birds from
their roosts.
"But 1t was no use. Organized war

in the county treasures and the
bounty was declared Oft. Now they

ODD APPEAL TO UNCLE SAM
Congressman Thought Old Gentleman
Might Have Some Kind Of
Statue Lying Around.

There Is a military officer In the
Office of the superintendent Of public
buildings and grounds at Washington
who, from a recent experience, has
reason to believe that some members
of congress are unreasonable.
A representative from a remote dis
trict In a far southern state tele-
phoned him for statue of some
kind--preferably figure Of soldier"
The representative went on to explain
that little town In his district has
decided to honor Its several young
townsmen, who were killed in the
World war, and not having an abund-
ance of money to spend on memorial

III thought your office no doubt had
some statues laying around that you
had not selected sites for or else had
no further use for, In which event you
could let me have one to ship down to
my constituents" the representative
explained In a serious and suave
manner.
The latter, according to the army
officer, appeared more surprised than
disappointed when told over the teie-
phone that the Office of public build
ings and grounds was out of spare
statues

This has been demonstrated since the

the time the Beadle books have been

To the fish the surface of the water,

YOUR LITTLE NEW YEAR,

eerTNHE Little New Year" is a

pops into view overnight; in
fact, one seconds difference is
the margin between his being
nothing at all and then appear
ing as something very definite
to reckon with. From the min.
ute he claps his eyes on you, he
belongs; he is your ''Little New
Year" and you've got to decide
pretty quickly what to do with
him. There is no possible way
Of escaping this parenthood.
He's going to stick to you like
burr for 365 days, every min
ute, every hour. It's really quite
alarming.
Are you going to bring up the
little fellow on UNDERGONE resolu-
tons?
Are yop going to make him A
present Of malnutrition by feed
Ing him on irregular meals Of
procrastination?
Are you going to ruin his char
acter (and maybe your own) by
rows and rows Of pleasant fibs
to prevent a feeling Of discom-
fort about his growing up into
harum-scarum boy? Like human
children, he needs watching and
guiding and discipline. You'll
never have the opportunity of
raising" this particular lad
again. He will slip from your
fingers on the night of December
31-your sLittle New Year"
grown into whatever manhood
you've permitted him.

sturdy fellow!

1t is truly wonderful how many
birds will visit modest gardens dur

the migration that takes place is
equally interesting. In winter we may
look for various finches. sparrows,

other species that come to US during
