HUNGER SUPPLANTS FETES WHERE WOMEN WORE TWENTY PETTICOATS Budapest now is capital of a ahrunken Hungary, u nation reduced t?? it fourth lis former size, both in lespect to its urea and population.

Ihe Budapest of today offers a pa thetic contrast to the care-free jiays of such fetes as that of St. Stephen's : before the war. I That historic celebration. when men I wore slit skirts and the women i donned L'O petticoats, is described in i the folloxying bullet in from the Xa | tional (Jeogruphic society, based on a 1 communicnt ion from I Witt Clinion Falls: "For w^o Saint Stephen was. and why he was thus honored, we must go hack some nine hundred and odd years in Hungarian history, from which we gather ihe following infor mation: Vaik came to Hie throne of the Magyar Duchy in ihe year i)U7. He applied for ami received the title of Apostolic king from Pope Sylves ter TT. and was crowned in Budapest in the year lOtg), under the Christian name of' Stephen. He did much for his countrymen lo bring them into the established church, and founded throughout his kingdom churches, schools and convents. 1 1 Ik adminis tration was a w ise -one, and so firmly fdid he deal with the attempted upris ing of the 'Old Magyar Religion' party that when his death occurred, in lOfhJ he left his country entirely converted to Christianity. So much had he done for, the advancement of the Christian faith among the wild hordes of east ern Europe, and added to the civili zation of IiJh subjects, that he was canonized and gladly proclaimed by the Hungarians as their patron saint. "When the Saint passed away. In lO.iU, one of his hands was amputated and embalmed, and this sacred relic reposes In the court chapel of the ltoyal Palace In old Butla. Adorned with many handsome rings, it is kept In a crystal casket, set In a beautiful golden reliquary ornamented with many precious stone.s. In a special shrine behind the high altar.
