By Roger Batchelder. Probably halt of the “New Yorkers for a Day or Two" just now are women whose homes are in the sub- urban districts or In towns and cities within fifty miles of the metropolis. ‘They are the annual army of Christ- mas shoppers, an invasion warmly welcomed by the merchants, theatre managers and hotelkeepers, “| used to accomplish all my Christmas shopping in a day’s trip,” remarked a woman guest at the Ma- festic, whose home js in Stamford, Conn,, “but In recent years the crowds have so greatly increased, so many new shops have been opened with such a wide variety of suitable gifts, that 1 find the dnly way to attend to the matter satisfactorily Is to stay right here for two or three days.” “Women like to gee away from worry all they can," sald Roy Car- ruthers, managing director of the Waldorf-Astoria, yesterday, “and by taking a room at a hotel, instructing the shop clerks to send purchases C.

Paxton Hibben, who was with the Greek Army during the war and spent many months in German prison camps. He is at the Pennsylvania after Investigating Near Bast con- ditions, ‘A coming generation of millions of people will have been raised under the degenerating in- fluences of hunger and want,” he sald, “and the people so raised will not care what happens to the rest of the world, “The Peace Conference gave to Armenia certain territory in Turkey. The Armenians tried to occupy, this territory but were chased back by tite Turks, who killed great masses of the people, totally wrecked 140 villages and ‘cit 400,000 homeless. A terrible famine resilted last sum- mer, because draught animals, grains, seed, corn and ploughs—everything by which the Armenians might help themselves—had been taken by Turk- ish raiders, The Armenians are a hard working people, For three cen- turles. they have preserved thelr Chri ‘an faith against the most amazing persecution that ‘the world 1 s ever known.” 7 8 MONTANA WEATHER PROPHECY EASY. “{ understand a hard winter is predicted here in the East," com- ments J.

Josephson of Deer Lode, Mont., who is at the Mc- Alpin, “We don't need any weather prophets out our way, hecause the winters are always hard, Back In the old days the medicine men of the Indian tribes used. to gather in solemn counell around the camp fire every fall and predict the weather for, the coming winter, They read their forecast in the stars, and the stars always told them it was going to be @ hard one. For Mon- tana the red man's system is a9 good as before 4 SPAIN ABOUT NORMAL AGAIN. “The war with Morocco has been practioally settled, though the situa- tion will still bear watching,” asserted Jauquin Muntal, who has just arrived at the Astor from Barcelona, Spain, and is on his way to Cuba, “Cond!~ tions are back to normal,” he contin- ued. “Duties on all imports have been {nereased, and Spain is now manufactyring more goods than ever before, This has caused complete re- | Uef for the unemployment s tuation, I believe that Spain has suffered less than any other country during the financial depression, and I found that since my visit there several years ago, conditions had improved in every way.” eee IT'S A HARD LIFE. “Please don't print my name, and I'll tell you one of the woes of a travelling man,” urged a guest at the McAlp.n yesterday. “I come from the Middle West, and on Thanksgiving I went home for one of my all too infrequent visits. On the first evening I sug- gested a visit to our nearest neighbors—old friends of the fam- ily. Friend Wife didn’t seem to like the suggestion, and finally I learned the reason why. Nexte door Jimmy, it seemed, had aimed for the chin of our Bill, who promptly retaliated with an accu- rate noseward thrust. Mrs. Smith had told the wife that the neigh- bor had sald that her ‘wave’ was artificial, and the neighbor, when interrogated, had gone to Mrs. Sm th and asked why she made the statement. Smith, also, ls a good friend of mine, “It took all of my leave of ab- sence to straighten things out, and I imagine that by Christmas I shall have more to settle.
