CHRISTMAS IN
FRANCE VERY
DARK INDEED

PARIS, Dec. 25.-Christmas OF

dullest in years from q business
viewpoint and most expensive from
the consumers viewpoint
Everything has gone up from 80 to
so per cent s-ncn last year, except
incomes and salaries, the reason is
easy to understand.
In spite of fhis situation, celcbra-
tions started last night with the ira
ditional midnight mass, followed by
the famous Reveillon.' - Although
The latter was a restricted one for
many French I" Revcilloners, - there
was the usual foiegras, oysters,
white sausages, champagne, but
either less in quantity or inferior
in quality.
The first to suffer apparently are
French boys and girls. Now is the
time of the year when they expect
presents from father, mother and re-
latives. Families go to- the stores
with the best intentions, but they
see prices prolibitive. Toys these
days cost 25 per cent more than last
Christmas, while some have gone up
as high as 80 per cent.
A poor Christmas, a poorer New
Year day, with very slight hopes of
wealthier France during 1924, such
Is the outlook without pessimisn,
