CARDS OF TWO KINDS
Personal and Informal Are
Distinct Types.

While the etiquet of greeting
cards generally is understood, there
are a few points which bear
repetition. Christmas cards are of
two kinds, personal and informal.
The first are designed primarily to
be printed or engraved with the
sender's name, and card should be
selected which is appropriate to the
entire list of friends and &C
quaintances.
The informal cards, on the other
hand, give greater scope for unique
and original choice, as they are
selected to fit each individual on the
sender's list and may accordingly
be religious, dignif1ed, humorous, or
quaint as desired.
Either printed or engraved sig
natures are accepted as equally good
form for the personal cards. The
lettering style of the signature must
match that of the card. Par
ticularly new is the card with the
verse and name printed in block
letters in either red, green, or gold
instead of the customary black.
For younger married couples, the
use Of the Sender'S first names in
stead Of the formal Mr.. and Mrs. is
sponsored. Either the husbands
name or the wifes may be used
first. according to which best
balances" the card.

CHRISTMAS EVE
is CAY IN CITY
or LIVING DEAD
Santa Claus, in Person, to
Pay Visit Today at
Leper Colony.
BERRY J. HOLLOWAY,
United Press staff Correspondent

q. S. LEPER COLONY, CAR
WILLIE, La, Dec. 25.-It is Christ
mas here, too, in the city of the
living dead.
From twilight to midnight Christ
mas eve. afflicted men and women
seemed to forget hospital routine
and their personal tragedies as they
celebrated the anniversary Of the
birth of Christ.
First from the low rambling
buildings behind the winding levees
along the Mississippi came the ex-
cited conversation of men and
women.
Then there was the chant of a
priest and the low songs of nuns,
as the leperS knelt and prayed
for aid.
Later they gathered in the recre-
alton room. A band struck UP
lively tune and the fun began.
Holiday Dance Held
The faces of the lepers lighted
up. The men outnumbered the
women almost two to one and the
cutting in" reminded one of a COL
lege dance.
Most of the arrangements were
under the direction of Sister Cath
crime, kindly faced Sister of Char
ity-the Florence Nightingale of the
colony.
The lepers look to Sister Cath
crime for everything. Through her
efforts each patient will be given
a number of Christmas presents at
a special tree Thursday afternoon.
The gifts we're presented by char
table organizations from all over
the country.
One of the lepers will act as
Santa Claus and lead the enter
tainment.
Try to Make Lives Normal
None of THE 326 patients will be
released during the holidays. Only
seventy-five have been released
during the last four years.
Sister Catherine, however, ex-
planned everything was done to
make the lepers' lives as normal as
possible. They are not locked in
their rooms, and escape from the
colony would be easy.
Every patient has either bicycle
or a wheel chair, while the govern
ment provides books and magazines.
The menu today will be similar to
that served for Christmas dinner in
almost any home. Turkey, cram
berry sauce, potatoes and cake
will be included in the meal.

PARIS STUDENT
RIOTS DIE OUT
Last Traditional Uprising
Was 10 Years Ago.

BIZ United Press
PARIS, Dec. 25.-The traditional
student riots Of the Latin quarter
apparently are dying out, there not
having been one for sixteen years.
One of the chief tenets of the
Association of Students of the Uni
versity of Paris, which controls and
directs official" riots, is that, con-
trary to the general belief, there
ought to be some real grievance.
One of the most famous in his
tory occurred in 1907
A professor opened a series of
lectures on Racine, Moliere and
Corneille. His subjects we're so
popular that the small lecture room
was packed with actors, writer's and
elegant ladies. Students suffered,
but when it became Impossible for
them to hear, the riot squad was
called out. The action was confined
to whistling and shouting.
The students used to be organized
In semi military fashion to meet
such emergencies and each man
was assigned to his task. In en-
counters with the police fists and
brickbats were used freely.
Once the police killed a student.
His name has been martyrs SYM
Dol ever since.
