And. fheir prayers were pronounced IN

little figure Of the Infant lay with 01t-

"And now" said Madame, rising II Is

And so we all went out into the clear
star-lit night, as the bells began to ring
in the glad tiding that Christ was born.
The streets were filed with hurrying fg-
urcs. but the majority were bound Tor the
great cathedral at the end OF the tree
lined avenue, while We, as being more
favored, kept on our way to the convent

Vespers in an Old
French Cathedral

After vespers / tarried bit TO walk
around and inspect the old church. First
/ noted that the Gothic arches and the
great columns were different on the two
sides Of the church. This phenomenon IS
10 be observed in most Of the old French
church monuments, ! was to learn later,
and is due TO the fact that a church was
never erected in its entirety, but was ere
ated in sections, the labor often extend
ing over a period Of century or more.
By studying the style Of the architecture
Of the different parts Of a cathedral ex-
perts are able to determine the period in
which each part was built.
After. church NJ. Eugene and Marie
Therese went to pay a few Christ
mas visits, while went with Madame to
see some cousins. We were offered cakes
and wine and the children urged their
candies upon US. ---
Even the children had few gifts. The
l.ttlest one had left her shoes in front Of
the chimney and the petit Jesu" had,
filed them with bonbons. as she herself
told me that morning when she came TO
wish me bon jour" at the bedside. And
when ] pointed out TO her a lovely doll
that sat up perkily in front Of my own
fireplace, the littest one gathered it hun
grily in her arms and came over to the
bed to ask if the good Jesus had left
the doll for her as well as the candies.
One thing I forgot to say was that
while we were having our reveillon in the
dining salon the household staff was en-
ioying one Of its own in the great kitchen
with its twelve-foot table in the center
and dozens Of copper cooking vessels

The Christmas Services
In the ConUent

Here we entered silently, quiet figure
gesturing the way through the court TO
the entrance TO the chapel.
Oh, such scene as We entered upon!
A fairyland Of lights and flowers and
music. with the whole central part of the
chapel filled with lovely young girls, every
one wearing lacy white veil. As the
organist played march, on they came
slowly, with stately step, every pair OF
bright eyes cast down-to the very steps
Of the altar where they made obeisance,
returning then 10 find their seats. A
garden Of blooming flowers Of youth 1t
looked down there in the chapel.
We sat in chairs at the left Of the altar,
the chapel being in the form Of cross.
Presently the venerable white-haired
priest began the celebration Of the Christ
mas mass, the sweet-voiced choir Of nuns
rendering harmonious accompaniment.
After the service We waited for the
daughter Of the household pupil at the
convent and one Of the fower-bud girls in
the white wells. She came, grave and
luminous eyed, the spell of the night
strong upon her, and together We went
into the silent court and on to the street
where many other groups were now
Lurrying toward their homes.
For the celebration Of the night was not
yet over. An interesting old tradition
remained to be honorcd.
As we came near our own home the
doors were thrown open by Jean-who,
with the entire staff Of the household, had
been at the Cathedral but hurried on ahead
TO welcome the family back-.and we all
went direct to the dining salon, where
Anna, the old cook, and Marie, the femme
de chambre, and the young valet de cham
bre waited
And there was the long table making a
picture Of lis burdens Of silver and flowers
and gayly garnished dishes.

! caught my breath at the scene. But,
Madame. what does it mean?' ] cried.
What but the reveillon, my infant"
she said. And / learned that in every
home in France that Christmas Eve there
was being celebrated the reveillon, which
always follows the midnight mass. An old
religious custom, said Madame, which had
been seized upon in modern times by the
great hotels and restaurants in Paris for
revelry and dancing, much like our old
New Years celebrations. Still the old
custom is kept in the hOmes-and de-
liehtful custom it is.
Squarely in the center Of the table re-
posed a kingly lobster. No less honored
was the big pot Of pate de foie gras,
delieacy which the French consider fine
