CHILDREN’S FESTIVAL
PARISIAN CHRISTMAS
PARTIES FOR THE POOR
(Received Dec. 24, noon.) LONDON, Dec. 23,
The Manchester Guardian’s Paris correspondent says that Christmas in France is chiefly a children’s festival. Happily, in 1934, even the poorest has something to anticipate. The Government is organising a three-day Christmas party for 60,000 poor Paris children who will receive clothes, food, and toys. Tlie grown-ups usually are content with a restaurant Christmas eve dinner, and the restaurants have considerably lowered prices owing to the, bad times.
