EDINBURGH December 28th The observance of Christmas is in transition stages in Sectiand, with all the uncertainties and unsatisfactorinesses of that condition. It is not a general holi day, neither is it a roligious festival. For though certain classes in Scotland follow the English custom, the masses of the people lil celebrate the Now Year. The influence of Christmas, however, ia grow. ing in the North, most of all in the large vities

day

This year Christmas fell upon a Sun- and the religions side of it was therefore emphasised, But what struck one most was the way in which a holiday was observed on the following Monday, All the banks and offices were closed and about half of the shops. It is true that industry was carried on as usual, but the general attitude of the public would have bcon unthinkable only a generation ago.

Gacat "interest is being excited, even among what may be called non-church- going people, by a most extraordinary religions revival at present in progress in some parts of Scotland. Its limite tions, as much as is extent provoke curiosity and speculation. "Revivals have their spring tides and their abbe, and it is perhaps not strange that some of their ixost remarkable manifestations should be. found among the fisherfolk who do busi- dess it great waters, and see the wonders of the Creator in the deep. It is at least suggestive that the "way of revivalism" which has swept along the Eastern Consta of Scotland should have been practically confined to the fishing stations, and to the acetion of the population engaged in the harvest of the sea. There must be psychological and possible racial, social, and educational reasons for the fact that in the Fraserburgh district, which may be taken as the centre of the present ́ movement the sixth part of the com- munity that can be ofassed as fisherfolk have been strongly affected, while the re- maining five-sixths- engaged in other industries have been touched slightly, if at all. And that while, the fire of en- thusiasm has spread with lightning rapidity and intensity from one const village to another, it has not spread in are hereby notified that owing to the strike of land.
