This is the beginning of one of the mnny New Years proclamations of Peter Stuyvesnnt, director of New Netherlands his farm, the general on Manhattan Island gave the Bowery BouvvprlJ, its name by which he hoped to prevent more In New Amsins, debaucheries and calamities sterdam during his 17 years of administration, KM7-6Tor It was In old New York that, the American custom of New Yenrs calls had Its beginning. And when the fnn got too boisterous old Peter would come stumping along on his wooden leg and try to make an unwilling enforce his proclamation. New Years day was the holiday par excellence In old New York. It was a day peculiarly dedicated to family congratulations and the renewal of friendships In expressions of symputhy nnd good will, which, following so closely the sacred festival of Christmas, Inspired all with peculiar significance. Washington Irving has said : New York was then a handy town. Anyone who did not live over the way was to be found round the corner." So the making of New Years calls was easy. Let us glance at the New Amsterdam of that day on the first day of the new year. The sober, older citizens, sturdy figures, richly nnd Wnrmly clothed, walk.- slowly smoking, to the fort to render New Year's wishes to the officers of the garrison and then to the White Hall by the Battery to do the governor the same honor. Ever Ince daybreak a noisier element has reveled up and down the narrow lanes and by the banks. of the canal (now Broad street), shouting greetings, Ieatlng drums, firing muskets, blowing horns, and drinking rivers of shaking rumbling-potbeer. A group of young burghers, with some clumsy firearm, a snaphance or a murtherer. have gone from door to door of each bouse firing Wank volleys, gathering recruits, drinking more beer, till all repair to Beekmans Swamp (known to this day In New York as the Swamp) to fire at target. Noise and New Years continued to he closely connected in the days f the American colonies. New Yeafs day was a favorite day for shooting at a mark, for shooting for prizes, nnd target companies" of wry respectable citizens rose enrjy iti the morning for these contests. For it was (Itemed most selfish and rather disreputable foil man to siend the entire (lay in such shooting. He could go with tns target company in the morning, but be must pay a round of calls to the fo r in the afternoon. fc In tlie days of New Tears celebration In New York. Jn the firt half f the nineteenth century! the town seemed a great family reunion. In which em man vied with the ether In boisterous delight. Simps were lighted, windows garlanded streets crowded. Great vans stages with four and six s frrscM were crowded with groups ef men. often a or kinsfolk, or Md neighbor, er a b furious nob of. men allied in. politics or some target . .compsny! -- or''bnd firemen." The ac- - (pii.intances of each were called trpon Hi turn. It was about the beginning of the nineteenth century that tbe change from a neighborly observance to one of pure fashion began la all the large cities. The younger women of such households as bad daughter! were hostesses, and great "ns their rivalry, one with another, in respect to richly loaded refreshment table and elegance of t The dude of those days they ceiled them buiux and dandles" and gallants" attired themselves in their best and started out early in the morning on their calls, , It was not until about the middle of the century thr the abuse which finally led to the customs dec! ne began. For years tbe.dandie of New Trk and other large cities rivaled one another in the length of their calling lists, aod the call soon ctuue to be nothing more than hasty step mere rapid gorging of cake and gulping of wine In of the friendly calls of men upon the families of their friends and acquaintance. Tlmn the ladles the matrons as weil as the women began to vie with one another la the number of their callers. This led to the nxc-- t were etraorlnnry practices. Callers indeed much as customers are drummed ttf lv dealers in soap. Card announcing M'ks would be "at home"" on January 1 wefe M?nt out almost indiscriminately.

At every place they drank. The result was n most appalling assortment of Jags" long bet ore sundown. Late in the fifties the abuse came to be so great that the newspapers and the ministers took It up. and mnny were the editorials written and many the sermons preached against It. This crusade speedily brought results. It was not mnny years before the smart set of young men in most cities stoped calling. The hospitable door that had Leon open from morning to evening wns adorned with a basket for cards Gentlemen were driven all over town deposting their visiting cards In these baskets. In a year or so servants were delivering these cards. Then the baskets disappeared nnd tlie mail carrier delivered the few cards sent out. Of course this process was not at all uniform. It was fast In some cities, slow In others. A belle of the eighties, sitting in her easy chair, thumbing over an old scrapbook filled with faded cuttings from the newspapers of those days; her husband, a beau of the same period, in sbppers and dressing gown, smoking and listening us she spoke and rend, now and then nodding his head and smiling at some memory recalled ; nnd the daughters of the house, planning for the watch party festivities of 19110, listening with curious Interest and laughing and chatting about bow odd It all seemed now such c scene was doubtless to be witnessed In mnny n city all over the country with the closing days of 1919. "Ve didnt go In wf much for the watch parties in those days, the matron said. The whistles blew and there was some noise, it is true, among the downtown folk, tint we girls, as a rule, retired early vve bad to save ourselves for the trying ordeal of the next day, for New 1enrs day wns the great social event of the year. It was receiving day in all the home of the town. YVe called it keeping ipen bouse It wns a day of lavish entertainment nnd the doors were supposed 1 te open to everybody that railed, whether friend or stranger. YVe prepared j .for.it week In advance,. It ? a period of great conviviality. Aside from the fact that the was somewhat overdone, at time, that old custom-o- f the New Years open house was quite an sincere expression of good fellow-sh'- p to friend nnd ncigldtor nnd visiting stranger ojwning the portals of tbe New Year, as It were, with a greeting and n home welcome. And a a soclnl function, it wns most delightful it helped to bring people together. "It wns the fashion to give each of the ca'lers a souvenir to carry away with them nnd a! sorts of Ingenious tittle device were used. Some had silk badges with tlie name if the girl painted on them: ome had dainty r;e.l souvenirs specially struck off. others ornate card with mottoes, and some went in for the oddities, like the clay pipes that papa tells alout. I remember tbe gentlemen used to wear these souvenirs pinned or tied with the knights of old wore rflrfvnna to their coat their Indies' favors end late In the evening the callers looked like foreign diplomats, with all their decorations, or. perhaps, like South African chiei . would he the better simile. Of course, only the gentlemen called they irpr never accompanied by ladles. The ladies re-mained in their liome to receive them.

I remember one season when vve had more than 200 callers. The custom was to stay a few moments only, chat, drink ami eat, and then go on to the next house. One of the minis, however, whs cleared for dancing and in the late hours tin callers would select partners and whirl through a waltz, a polka or a schottlshe, or jierhnps a set of the quadrille, livery house bud a band of musicians. "The open house function wns a very elaborate dress affair tbe women vied with one another In beautiful costuming and tlie month btfore New Years was a harvest for tlie dressmakers From 2 oclock until late In the night the parlors were filled with guests.

From the hour after dinner until long after midnight the celebration lasted. It consisted of noise, eating and drinklngwith noise by far the predominating element. Men horn In New York, who have lived here all their lives, looked at the carnival In wide-eye- d astonishment. "At least 50.000 men and womeii packed Broadway and tbe side streets near Trinity church from half past eleven oclock until Jong after midnight. T.o bear the chimes? Oh. no.
