Vincent Morrison, of the writing to The Guardian, says:-— Dear Editon-I am enclosing you of Guardian readers, of when and how the , Chinese celebrate their New Year. Here we are more for- tunate than you as we celebrate two Newlfears-that, according to the Western calendar on January lst, and. of course, we join with the Chinese in celebrating theirs. "The outlook for the present year scents brighter than it did last your. With the return of Chlang Kai Shek as commander-in-chief of the southern cause, and the discenslcns and deflections in the northern army it would seem that the end of the great struggle were near. The soldiers and the people ore tired of war and one and all would welcome peace. I The Guardian comes to inc regu- larly, and keeps me in touch with the home land. I must congratulate you upon running. such an able and efficient newspaper. _ Today, the Chinese are celebrat- ing their New Year's Day. This is the first and the most important amongst their many festivals. New Year occurs among the Chinese with the entrance of the sun into the constellation Aquarius. and thc first new moon after that date isthe beginning of their year. This phe- nomenon occurs as early as the 21st of January and never latci than the 19th of February. The celebration of the festivities begins one week before the close of the old year. On the 23rd of thc twelfth moon, each family gatheis in the kitchen to worship the kitchen god whoses figure is pasted on the chimney. 0n this night he is said to return to heaven to report to the Ruler of thc Universe the conduct tng the year now drawing to n close. They smear its mouth with sugar and molasses ,thus indicating that they wish him to render a good ac- count of them, and not to tell any- thing bad about them. The paper image is then taken from its place on the chimney and carried out into‘ ll, the principal courtyard of thc 110mb." sedan chair lnadc of reeds and pit- per and then set on tire. Then the guardian of the household l8 sup- posed to ‘ascend on high to render the account of the inmates. One week litter on the 30th of tiie moon. the last day of the old year the family assembles oiice iilore in the kitchen t_b welcome the supposed return of thc God. He is due at 11 o'clock and the bill-sting,- of fire- crackers and lighting of candles au- nounccs his return. A new image is pasted upon the chimneyabovc the kitchen range and the "God of the Stove" is once more installed to guard the home. and then every- thing is in readiness for the begin- ning of a happy new year. The last night oi‘ the old year. ac- cording to the lunar calendar is called "San Sliiii Won Shaug“, i.c., the night of the 30th. It is a. busy time for the Chinese, because all accounts must be settled, and all books balanced. and ‘also all debtsl must be paid off before the new year dawns or our: loses face. Many have been known to steal and to commit suicide rather than fiicc- the New Year with a loss of reputation. _ You may see lllally queer sights in a Chinese city on the last night of the year.

It will be long after mid- night before thc town settles down w the accustomed quiet of the dark. In strange contrast to this noise and bustle is thc Sabbath-like still- 11055 of New Year's morning.

Adjusting thc Year. As twelve lunar months do not correspond with tiie period of the earths revolution around the sun,‘ it becomes necessary to adjust the, lunar to the solar year by adding at times an extra month. This phe- nomenon has occurred this year. So this year, the Chinese Calendar contains thirteen months. Some- times it is added ot the beginning of the year, sometimes at other seasons. It is so placed that it does not affect thc calculations of the former, who had learned to plow and to sow at the tlmesindicated by the mlendar. Not only thefar- nier migl t be affected by tlleclutngc but the dates had to be fixed for all important sacrifices offered during thdycar. Anniversaries of deaths of important pcrsonages were re- corded arid observed. Unlucky days, too, are marked as also are the un- lucky ones. It is also a matter of great importance for cvcry one" to know what days would be fortunate or unfortunate for tifc affairs of llfc. Many of the common people use cheap Almanacs prepared by Ar- trologrrs and Soothsayers in which prediction of weather and lucky days were made. For the illiterate tllc character of the New Year was indicated on the front page by the image ofa. "Purple Cow." If a dash of purple wiis found 0n the cow's of a ycnr, while red or yellow would indicate another sort of year. Thus thc uletllcsi; or dryness of the year, ‘its heat or cold, snow and frost were foretold. Something similar, though on it larger scale, was the old almanac (Ayers) xvlllch the old people of P. ‘E. Island form- erly used and to a great extent fol- lowed when they planted potatoes devoted to the faintly. Every one is decked out in his best tilothcs and in the afternoon gocs to the prin- cipal room in the house to worship the spirit of the parents and grand- parents. Incence and Jess sticks are burned to the deceased ances- tors. and all give themselves up to feasting, drinking and the joy of a] family re-union. Abundance of ‘food and fuel must be on hand for three days‘ consumption, for itis impos- sible to buy anything during these three days. The very rich lay in a store of provisions for a month.
