Christmas customs. v At one time, in [ England, the ringers gave their services free, nor would they accept any special payment. The peal was rung ' as a matter of course, and was the natural expression of English joyousi ness. The merry music of the bells in Great Britain and wherever churches have peals of hells, is today as much a feature of Christmas as the decora tion of church ana home with evergreens. or the provision of the good I cheer which always marks this festive season. What an outcry there would be if I an edict were issued forbidding the 1 ringing of the bells during the coming festive season! Yet this was actually j done during the Commonwealth, for in 1652 the wise men of parliament gave orders that "no observation shall be had of the five-and-twentieth day of December, commonly called Christmas day." I' It is quite certain that this edict ! was disregarded in many places, while i in others it led to open rioting. At | Canterbury the mayor of the city tried } to enforce the new rule, but the people ! were not going to be deprived of their i pleasures so easily, so they took the i law into their own hands, broke the J mayors windows?and some of his bones as well?and affirmed tneir in-1 j tention of keeping their Christmas in their own fashion, just as their fathers ; had done before them. A Good Modeling Material. It is often very difficult to keep a child confined to the house amused. But with a modeling material with which they can make animals, beads etc.. they can be kept amused for hours. Take four tablespoonfuls cornstarch. eight tablespoonfuls salt and eight tablespoonfuls boiling water. Mix the dry ingredients and pour on the boiling water, stirring until the mixture is soft. ! Put on the fire ana stir uaui n ivnus i ' a soft ball, then remove from the stove and stir for ten minutes. A little color J may be added. Wrap in oiled paper when not in use to keep from hardenin?
