 What ever happens to the Chri s tmas greeting cards that flood the mails each holiday season? Ev- cry year thousa ands of cards arrive in the Chr Is tmas mails in homes all over the coun try.
 The probl em of what to do with those cards, once the holi-- day season has dr avn to an end, is a prob lem as old as the Chri s tma s seas --but now there's a so1u- tion to the puzzle.

cupied by the National Archives,
was first used for market purposes
on Tuesday, December Is, 1901, and
for while afterward also on Thurs
days and Saturdays, and subse-
quently every day but Sunday and
public holidays. The original mar
Iket building consisted of but one
shed, then later it was enlarged by
second one for butchers and
others, and then a third one was
added for fish dealers, and, like
Topsy, it continued to "just grow"
Destroyed by Fire.
However, fortunate as it would
seem, whatever was there on De-
cember 18, 1870, was totally de-
stroyed by fire, and by July 2. 1872,
the large brick building which COW
cred the area from Seventh to
Ninth street and from Constitution
avenue north almost to Pennsyl-
vania avenue was completed aflo
opened for market purposes. OF
course, the market was largely re-
stricted to foodstuffs, but there were
other gay shopping centers in down.
town Washington, along Pennsyl-
vania avenue, for instance, from the
Capitol to Twelfth street and Sew
enth street from Pennsylvania
avenue north to about O street, and
nearly all. the Christmas presents
were bought on these streets. OF
course, nearly everybody went to the
old Marsh Market (the Center
Market for their Christmas turkeys
and trimmings, and, incidentally,
the former could be bought for as
low as 10 cents pound, and every
thing was proportionately as low.
The best Christmas tree on the mar
ket would not cost over a quarter,
and, as a matter of fact, nearly
everybody went into the woods and
cut his own tree, for many of the
present subdivisions just outside of
Florida avenue we're then used for
farming purposes and the restric-
tions we have today were unneces-
sary.
No early resident of Washington
will ever forget the Center Market
and Louisiana avenue between
Ninth and Tenth streets during the
holiday season, and, of course, the
old hay market and the wholesale
market were very attractive during
this time Of the year. Indeed, one
can almost imagine he sees the late
Joe Roth selling turkeys on the
Zine" and the many other familiar
faces.
Christmas Scene.
The Center Market was particu-
larly busy place around Christmas
time, especially if there was snow
on the ground, for then an unusual
number of farmers came to town
and their wagons were backed up
to the curb on both sides of what
was formely B street and on Seventh
and Ninth streets. To the north of
the market. in the public space,
large quantities of holly, trees,
wreaths, mistletoe and laurel were
sold.
And, of course, we cannot forget
those kindly colored women who. at
this time of the year particularly,
sold punches of sage and thyme,
as we'll as peppers. eggs and other
small farm produce, when they were
not huddling around an improvised
stove in order to keep warm. Queer
sights Indeed, we shall probably
never see them again-hood drawn

But Christmas and childhood days
bring to our minds the fondest days
OF all and though Santa Claus left
behind for him or her only jack
knife or a rag doll, yet the same en-
thusiasm was just as pronounced as
II it were thousand times as much
YuIetide Memories.
Conditions under which we now
live have, in many respects, modified
the way in which we formerly cele-
brated that notable day. Indeed, to
many the Christmas of today Is
much different from those of 10 or
more years ago, when people had
large, practical, open flreplaces and
a chimney almost large enough for
real st. Nicholas to make his en-
trance and exit.
In those days people in this vicin-
ity burned pine and oak logs, the
latter being the more expensive, and
many burned anthracite coal in the
little, round stoves, if the house was
not heated by a latrobe and the
kitchen stove answered for both
heating and cooking.
Coal then cost about the same as
wood and was less troublesome, ex-
cept to those who bought cord wood
and had to call in the wood sawyer
to saw the logs into desirable

lengths. But yet, even with the in
conveniences of coal and wood, and
the possible discomfort of sometimes
going to bed in cold room with the
weather under freezing, there has
been nothing since to equal the
glare and roar of the burning wood
on the hearth and the popping and
cracking of the fuel, nor does any
thing appear more cozy and cheer
full now than did the red-hot parlor
stove and the red-hot lids OF the
kitchen range of the bygone days.
What pleasure we used to have
popping corn on the old kitchen
stove, especially during the holiday
season, and roasting chestnuts and
chinuuapins. What fun we used to
have pulling off our red-topped
boots with the bootjack in winter
time and toasting our feet by the
fire and, oh, how difficult 1t was.
sometimes, to get them on the next
morning.
These and many other similar
incidents produced but few Of the
thrills we shall never forget. And
then came the greatest day of all
Christmas morningl-when we-for
perhaps the only day in the year
arose before our parents and scam
pered down to the parlor, where the
decorated pine or cedar tree was
always placed-decorated with
homemade strings of little paper
rings, cornucopias, figures OF all
kinds made from bright-colored
papers, sticks of candy with ring
tops, decorated French candies, COL
ored in places in imitation OF dogs.
cats, roosters and all sorts OF ami
mails; colored glass balls, little bags
of sweets and occasionally an orange
or two helped to make the tree look
attractive.
And, OF course, there was the little
railing fence, the animals from
Noah's ark, the little pond, the
canton flannel or some other mate
rial used to initiate snow and some
of the smaller presents were also
there. How beautiful it all looked
the first night, when the varicolored
candies were lighted. Indeed.
Christmas does make an old-timer
reflect, for many things have hap
pened since some of us were chill
dren and in many cases the gentle
hands that filled the stockings and
nung them beside the fireplace and
trimmed the tree with infinite care
are no longer and the father, too.

sisters and brothers who romped
with you upon such occasions and
made the house ring with their
cheerful voices may now also be

Well, after all, children can be
children but once. But in the
