HAVE MANY WAYS OF OBSERVING DAY Christmas Celebrations by Foreigners Here Will Be Varied.

Aa has been the custom for years, this city will again be the scene of many unique celebrations during the next few weeks in the observance of the joyful Christmas time among the foreign people. Every important nationality In the world ia represented in this city's population, and practically every one has a different method of celebrating the anniversary of the birth of Christ. Although the celebrations are becoming greatly Americanized, there are still many of the old customs and traditions remaining among the foreign people and elaborate observances will be the result. The Germans for many generations past have been among the most enthusiastic celebrants of Christmas and they were also tho first to observe the holiday Inan elaborate way in America. In the case of this city, they were the first to introduce the Christmas tree Into their celebration. A little more. than 50 years ago, the German residents led the Christmas time festivities of the entire section. Although the city now has a very large German-American population, the holiday -celebration of these people la not widely different from that of the ratlve born Americana. The Christmas of the old time Germans, however, was much more elaborate, the sustoms and manners of the old country being carried out In detail. The axchange of presents is a feature of the celebration, while the usual program of feasting and amusements is faithfully carried out each year. The English people boast of the most thoroughly Americanized Christmas celebration in the United States. In this city the observance of the Yuletlde event will bealmost entirely American among English residents, although there are a few features which are slightly different. The Kngllsh homes will possibly be more elaborately decorated, as is the custom in the old country. Like the Polish people, natives of Hungary spend two days in the celebration. Although the celebration is fast becoming Americanized, many of the customs o fthe old country are still in vogue. To the poorest Hungarian child the great holiday means a Christmas tree and a few presents and people of the nationality claim the custom Is carried out almost without exception. The Italian celebration will not conform closely to the custom of the fatherland. It Is for the most part distinctly American. An exchange of presents and the Christmas tree may for the most part be found in the ItalianAmerican homes on the holiday. Included in the lands of almost perpetual warm climate is Greece, the

And the Treat Proved a Fine Ad. For Liszt and Rubin!. An article In an Italian review contains an interesting story of Liszt and Roblnl, the tenor. They were touring together and visited a town where, from the preliminaries which had been arranged, great things were expected But they were disappointed, for when they entered the hall they found only fifty persons present. Ribinl was furious and said be would not sing, but Liszt calmed him. "You must sing," be said. "This small audience Is evidently composed of musical connoisseurs of the town, so we should treat them with respect." Liszt set the example with a grand overture, and Rublnl sang to perfection. Liszt gave another piece and then addressed the audience. Liszt as an orator was as tactful as he had been in the role of pacificator. Addressing his audience of fifty, he said: "Ladies and gentlemen" there was only one lady present "I think that you have had enough music. Allow me to ask you to take a little supper with us." After a few seconds the Invitation was accepted, and Liszt and Rublnl entertained the audience to supper at their hotel, which cost them 1.200 francs. When the guests separated the hosts thought the affair had been a joke, about which nothing more would be heard, but they decided to give their concert as advertised on the following night. To their astonishment the hall was packed. There was not standing room. The whole town had turned out on the off chance of an invitation to supper.

HOW TO LIVE. Life lengthened to its fullest is short enough, and the man who lives it out on straight lines, giving lift for lift and hck for lick, not overjoyous in periods of personal success and achievement nor yet too despondent when the game goes against him, keeping in mind always the supreme value of the average in all things, will leave the world still so much in love with it that he would like to linger yet for awhile to work and dream in its pleasant and fruitful pastures.
