The 1st of March is a day of joy ful festivity among the school chil dren in most of the Engadine com munes in Switzerland. At 4 o'clock in the morning a party of school boys mnrch through the village clanging cowbells, big and little, with all their might to proclaim the dawn of a boisterous day to their slumbering schoolmates still abed. As the day grows bright the loys gather, each one with a huge bell hung around his neck, on the vil lage square, where they form in ranks, according to their size. When the preparation."!, always conducted amid great excitement and juvenile jubilation, have been completed the procession starts on a tour through the streets to the accompaniment of furious bell ringing and noisy yodel ing. One of the eldest of the demon strators, with a milk pail on his shoulder and dressed in the costume of a dairyman, with yellow breeches, white stockings, low shoes, finely embroidered braces over a shirt of spotless white, turned up sleeves, displaying a brawny orm, the dairy man's hat perched jauntily on the back of his head, inarches proudly at the head of the herd. At the end of the procession is another big boy with a big stall in his hand like a herdsman. Ail this remind us of the way the cow go to the Alps to the sound of bells. The whole festival is nothing but a spring celebration to herald the return of the milder season, which has been looked for ward to wiih longing for months. The custom is said to be of Ro man origin; hence its name, "Cha landa Marz" (from Kalcndare). which justifies the assumption that, from the period of the year chosen for the observance of this festival, it must have orignated in the mild climate of Italy and not in the cold clime of the Engadine. In the way decriled the troop marches on from house to houe and is presented by the matron with rice, chestnuts, sausages, bread aud even money. The hotels are all vis ited, and the guests always contrib ute some small change. Out of the proceeds a general jollification is provided, in which the girls of the neighborhood take part. How intense is the youngsters' enjoyment of the Chalanda Marz festivities can scarcely be imagined by any one who has sot looked on at these annual junketings. Ex- from $12.50 to $20.00.
