Bethlehem Is No Longer a Typical Syrian Village. With the thought of the whole •civilized world turning toward the town of Nativity, and moat Chris- tians wishing thee they might see for themselves the scene of the Christmas event, it is rather dis- illusioning to have a candid tra- veller confess .that Bethlehem to- day is not at all like the Bethlehem of 1,900 years ago. Like many of the other pilgrimage sites., the place he a, great disappointment. The very fact of its celebrity has made Bethlehem over. One looks'in vain to -day for any' semblance, of the vil- lage ,that' greeted the anxious eyes of Joseph as he led his young bride to the ancestral abode for the Ro- man census. Only the hills remain as they were when the surprised shepherds heard the first Christmas choir, and even these have been marked by a new . order of life, writes a visitor to Bethlehem, The 'first impression of Bethlehem is that it is larger, more imposing, and more prosperous than the other towns of Syria. let has a smaller percentage of mud huts, and an ex- traordinary. array of modern build- ings of brick and stone, built in western style.. These are the schools and churches and consents which religious devotion has plant- ed at the scene of the greatest in the history of Cltristendom. Through the open windows, as one goes along Bethlehem's main street, the town now having a pop- ulation of about 4,000, one sees the pearl workers, men and women and children, at their dusty task of carving buttons and ornaments from mother-of-pearl. The shells are taken to Bethlehem from Red Sea points and the product is die- tributed all over the world, The people of Bethlehem are Christians, mostly of the Greek church. Even a casual observer sees the strong admixture of Euro- pean bleed in the population and recalls that the Crusaders once held tho town and established their life there. The old crusaders left other traces of their presence in Pelee - tine than the castles which mark strategic points and the coins which farmers occasionally dig up in the field. The very dress of the Beth- lehem women, with its high head. gear, is apparently a survival of a European fashion of the Middle Ages, • Just as there has neves- been and doubt about the site of Bethlehem, so there is also a general agree- ment` as to the authenticity of the cave which is covered by the Church of. the Nativity, In the second century strong tradition pointed to this site its that of the wonder birth. Then, of Course, Bethlehem ;was different, more like the hillside villages which one may see in northern Syria, oft the tour- ist routes, The inn that harbored Joseph and Mary was ouch a hillside khan as I myself have frequently Dean• pied. Indeed, on Christmas eve,. two years ago, I chanced to sojourn in a village on the side of a hill half way between the ' Mediterranean and she Tigris river, where the eon- ditions and the dress were just as primitive as can bet famed anywhere in the world. '.Dhe hearses were one; storey; high, and usually the rear.. r•ooni was in 'he nature of a cave dug in the earth or the limestone, Bethlehem was a 4hillSide village -of this sort. A peasant, people, living as close to their animals ss_ the .Syri•eus.do,' count it no burden 'te share thrt' warmth of rho room set apart for' the driving and riding =heels.. In my Christmas khan where, by the way, there was just knoll a by as Mary used, I found that the family of the innkeeper hacl re- treated to the rear of the '.cave moat with the houses, and it was thrilling on Chrrsdsi•ias Eve in this dark, low-cei.led apse tnaarnt, with its rough, emoke~goverul cc iters, to. hear the law ere of a little' baby. 'Phase whoewould.sieeth Bythleh ea of _Joseph, slid Mary; should go not to Bethlehem, bee oil the beaten tractt where tits Orient -eft pi r, is•' 'bailees may be fomncl The limese 5's•t,lail elf,. is ovorinid ivitl'rtonhaltgtn-pti soil 1, ,rnis masts, lamps and candles., saint the other tawdry emblems of supersti- tious reverence; that its character can scarcely be seen, In 'the floor is laid a large silver star. There is a lack of dignity and simplicity and appropriateness in the present set- ting of the cave that makes the traveller feel that this is the most un-Clrristmasy of 'alt spots on earth; for peace and good -will have no abode here. To the traveller from: the western continent, the greatest marvel to be. found in Bethlehem is the fact that the spirit which was born in the manger, andw•hich'has been re- sponsible for the new life of the. western world, has returned to the place of its origin, there to break the ages -old chains of ignorance and oppression. Bethlehem 'has within the last few years been shak- en to its Centre by a great economic and social crisis, which can best be described as the Americanization of the birthplace of Christ. D CMERRY CHRis-rMS R. Row to Give Presents. Why is it that people in selecting presents so often say, "Oh, yes, that will do for so-and-so." This means that something qi ite unsuitable is to be offered to so- and=so, but tliat the giver's con- scienec' is eased by the fact that she has given ''a present." The giving of presents is really an art, and one, too, which entails a good deal of trouble. One natural- ly hopes that the recipient will have pleasure in one's gift, and;'surely that is worth some trouble. Some people buy a lot of things without the slightest regard for whom they are 'intended. The 1'e - suit is a general mass' of things, books, gloves; sweets, needle cases,' and so on, which have to be planted on a collection of "sisters and cous- ins and aunts" without any, or at least very little, regard' to the in- dividual taste. Better far is it to choose some quite small .present provided it will really give pleasure to the re- cipient. For the lady with nimble fingers the little presents she makes her- self, costing only a few cents, will often give more pleasure than the most expensive thing bought at random. Men find much difficulty in select- ing presents'. Let them remember that pot flowers are always accept. able. For the reader, books never come amiss: Where there are young people, sweets, fruits, crackers, and so forth are always acceptable, but with everything let the individual- ity of the sender be seen. 'Write a little note or a few words of greett,. ing,on a Christmas card or visiting card. It is in these, Iittle ways that the thoughtfulness of the sender is seen and appreciated. —_ .e Nothing makes a man so sad as to have a girl jolly him.
