Revel of Joy Marks
German Observance.
A charming little maid-Maresa,
daughter of the German Ambassador
and Frau Won Prittwitz-will be the
center of a joyous feast in the very
home of Kris Kringle and the Christ
mas tree. 1t has always been Teutonic
custom to make Christmas eve revel
of joys for the small folks and remi-
niscent of such pleasures for the elders.
ALI the children in the embassy and
clerical staff will share in Maresa'S cell
CELEBRATION, while the Ambassador will en-
tertain their parents at the usual din
ner.
In the Polish, Czechoslovakian and
Lithuanian legations the celebration
will be on Christmas eve. Before the
Treaty of Paris proclaimed the inde-
pendence of these countries, Christmas
was a day of humiliation, when poig-
nant cries assembled that alleviation of
their sad lot might be granted by the
Infant Savoor. Now the note Of
thanksgiving marks the religious side of
the celebration. But other than this
traditional ceremony is continued. The
Polish Minister and Nine. Cienchan-
owski will entertain the staff, the cler-
ical force and the domestic retainers-
in fact, all of the Polish blood within
the city gates. The lighting of the tree
and the distribution of gifts will begin
after the first star appears in the East
Evening star., 1928-12-23

just at dusk, and the usual fish dinner
of Christmas eve will be served.
Elaborate Function Listed
For Czecho Legation.
At the Czechoslovakian legation the
newly arrived Minister, DR.. Ferdinand
Veverka, and Nine. Veverka, assisted by
their two children, Ferdinand and Nella,
will entertain the staff and all con-
| nected with the establishment.
The Lithuanian Minister'S wife and
small daughter are in Kaunas, so he
will distribute the usual gifts to his
staff and household and accept the
hospitality of friends in New York City.
Gay feasts will mark the day at all
the Scandinavian legations and among
the members of the staff, where there
are many little people. The Austrian
Minister and Nine. Prochnik will have
a party during the holidays and
will keep the feast after the elaborate
custom of Vienna. Britons and Canadi-
ans will merge resources as to the juve-
nile world, the small sons of the
Canadian envoy and Mrs. Vincent
Massie, Lionel and Hart, being the
hosts to the little Mahoneys and
Wrongs, and to little Miss Jean Torr,
daughter of the second secretary of the
British embassy, and to other boys and
girls Of King Georges circle.

fancy costumes appropos of the season,
and carrying gifts of their own chocS-
ing. A huge fir tree stands in the sun
parlor a the Secretary's home and the
curtains are all up just as high as they
will go so the myriad Of lights will shed
their rays out over Massachusetts, ave-
nue. and cheer the passerby. There they
will burn during the week, the electric
candles being replenished as needed,
and in sight of the public will hang
many beautiful toys.
And too, Mrs. Davis has a way about
children and toys that is quite as good
to observe all the year around as at
Christmas time. Whenever the chill
dren in the nursery forget to put their
toys away in the places made for them
they are carried Off and hidden by
some orderly myth that haunts the
rooms, and it is sometimes month be-
fore they can be found again. This
makes regular picture book nursery
Just like one reads about-that Is, after
the children are in bed.
The Country Home ball on Christ
mas night will be attended by society
en- masse, all dinner parties leading their
guests that way, and for ultra smart
ness it will eclipse all other social affairs
of the week. Mrs. Joseph Letter, Mrs.
James F. Curtis and many others are
sponsoring 1t. and Nancy and Thomas
Letter will join the rest Of the school
girl and boy element in attending.
