CHRtS"'MAS IN ” “MERRIE OLD ENGLAND"

As Sccii by Cruikshailk

The tlliristiiizis of tjriilksliaiilt in the

tlavs of “nicri'ie oiil Eiigln\iii" gives ii wholly ditleront coiiceptioii oi? the holi- day from that held at tho present. time. The observances ot' Yule-tido seem to shift about in ouch succeeding genera- tion until it is diillcult to retain the never oi good old traditions, in their entirety. __ The spirit ot’ the "morris old daYB is vividly called by the drawings ot Ci-uiksliunk. Alter all. when we want to get the atmosphere oi!

rtist wiio

un epoch, it is the a gives us the most satisfactory impres- sions. 'l‘hcro is a subtlo warmtii oi! expression in a picture that brings the oyo to the aid nt more fancy.

In those "good old days"-perhaps

all past days are good old days for nge does certainly add an interest- the town-erier’s song on Christmas Eve was the overture ot the succession oi’ festivities incidental to the Christ-

mas time.

Listen to his song as he sings to a

tune not definable on a musical bar:

Why not put iiioro good cheer in

`i‘lii'istiuui~i festivities. Speaking ot

joiiities oi' the "nierrie old days" note Llrulksliaiik's Christmas bustle. wlicru the guy and galiant feel tho flow oi good spirits. We venture to contrast with (lruiksliank’s sketch of u. glimpse at fasiiion’s foibles~ one oi’ more recent hue and color. Tho contrast is marked and reflects truly the dominant ideas of the times. _

Christmas Boxing Day. An old time

custom. now almost forgotten is the boxing day. The Christmas box is still in evidence in England but very littlo truce remains of the icstivities of titty years ago. These old prints call to mind the early days ot' Tliac- kerary and Dickens. That is, .tho days when they absorbed the impres- sions which flowed in their later and best work The successful novel seems to depend on two things-love and\eat- ing. The lirst is eternally the same with perhaps it modifying change of costume, but eating suggests at once tho absorbing passion of merrie old Christmas. When are the characters
