Denial that legal business had

fiduciary capacity was made today

this week for parents and juvenile
well wishers who are considering

Perhaps one reason that books are
not given any more often than they

pensive gift. However, it is now
possible to get reprints Of popular
juvenile titles for Soc or $1.00. Fol-
lowing is a list of books which may
be purchased for $1.00 or less.

CURIOUS
CHRISTMAS
CUSTOMS

Note-In Grenoble, France
the Department Of Isere, #. S,
Bonaime was born. At the age
of Is he moved to this country.
This week we present his i'm
pressions Of a typical Christmas
in Grenoble.
Nestled in the southeast cor
ner of France near the French
Alps, this peaceful village sell
dom knows what it is to have a
white Christmas. The mild
climate finds December a bal
my month with infrequent
freezing and only little snow. A
town, some two thousand years
old, vestiges of the old Roman
rule are still to be found. On
the gateway into the village,
the Roman name Is still inscrib-
ed.
Largely a day for religious
observance the people of Gren-
oble-mostly of the Roman
Catholic faith-begin services
with the Midnight Mass on the
Eve Of the Birth of Christ. Ser
vices are carried over until the
next day.
Great feasting is enjoyed
through the night and pork and
pastries are the most favored
dishes. There butcher shops
handling pork are separate es-
adjustments from those vending
beef and other animal products.
At Christmas the pork, in odd
outlets, and products made
from the pork are fancy dishes.
Pastries from the bakeries, in
varied patterns and recipes, are
Christmas dishes. Cake, which
the poorer classes rarely include
in their menu at any other time,
is considered a great delicacy.
That, too, is ordered from the
bakeries.
But here, too, presents are
not given on Christmas Day.
New Years Day is designated
for that and toys for the chill
dren, and candy and fruit are
in the general run of gifts. st.
