GREETING SPRING.
An Old and Picturttqu Custom In
Switzerland.
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. We
all kinds. Ties, Ties, Ties.
