CHRISTMAS AROUND THE WORLD Christmas is the loveliest of all birthdays â€"â€" that of the Infant Jesus. That is why Christmas is chiefly a day of worship in many lands, In French Canada, for onn“ph, everyone looks forward to Midâ€" night Mass on Christmas Eve. To French Canadians, Christâ€" mas is a time for the family to be together. Giftâ€"giving and revelry belong to the New Year. The New World In Canada and the United States the bringer of. gifts at Christmastide is Santa Claus, also called St. Nicholas. In Engâ€" land he is known as Father Christmas, Canada is one of the greatest suppliers of Christmas: trees in the world. Hundreds of thousâ€" ands of trees are grown just for that purpose every year. The great Christmasâ€"tree provâ€" inces â€" are British Columbia, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Quebec and Ontario. Balsam fir is first choice in the Maritimes and Douglas fir on the west coast. Many Canadian families prefer spruce, Scots pine and other evergreens, however. One out of every four Christmas trees in American homes comes from Canada. Turning to the United Btates â€" one of the most charming Christmas customs m ay be found among the Pennsylvania Dutch. They make up their own model Nativity scenes and have great fun going from house to house to see the ones their friends have built. In a church at â€" Bethlebem, _ Pennsylvania, there is a remarkable Putz, or Nativity scene, which people come for miles to see. It tells the story of Jesus‘ birth in seven elaborate scenes. Christmas trees came to this continent from Germany, in the sense of their becoming the centreâ€"piece of a Yuletide cusâ€" tom.

One of the niost unusual Christmas trees in the world is alive. It is a giant sequoia in California and is more than 8500 years old. Another reâ€" markable live Christmas tree is an oak growing in a North Carolina park. %ho Spanish moss festooning its branches weighs more than six tons. _ The little children of France | put out their shoes on Christâ€" tmas Eve, hoping that le Pere Noel (Father Christmas) will | fill them with toys or candies. In some French homes, Father Christmas calls, in person, on \ Christmas afternoon, after tea, | when the tree is lit. How the ‘kiddies ery out as he cnters ‘with his basket of toys!

Three famous carols w ere written by Americans: "It Came Upon the Midnight Clear," "O Little Town of Bethichem" and "We Three Kings of Orient Are." The radio and television age has popularized s uch Christmas tunes as "Rudolph the Redâ€"Nosed Reindeer" and | "White Christmas." | The Old Country ‘i Across the Atlantic, in Wales, earolers make their rounds very ‘ early on Christmas morning.| Sleepy householders invite them in for refreshments to pay for | the privilege of being so swakâ€" | ened. Many English carols are ceenturies old. "God Rest You{ Merry, Gentlemen" goes back to the 16th Century â€" "Joy to the World" and "Hark! The Herâ€"| ald Angels Sing!" to the 18th. | "The First Nowell" is a medi‘i eval shepherdâ€"song, claimed by | both France and England. f "Deck the Halls with Boughs of Holly" is not only an old English carol, but @lso a firm rule in British Yuletide houseâ€" holds. Holly branches, with their glossy green leaves and red bervies, along with the whiteâ€"berried _ mistletoe _ a n d evergreen boughs, adorn the Englishman‘s "castle," whether it be a Mayfair flat or a Devon cottage. But all the Christmas decorations are taken down on Twelfthâ€"night, January 6. The first. weekday @fter Christmas is Boxing Day in England. That is the day when the postman. the milkman and servants receive a gift, or "box." The centre of English fesâ€"| tivities used to be the yule log, .A cou blazing in the fireplace. In Engâ€" , for m land, it was of ash, oak or| electri pine; in Scotland, birch, It had | circuit to be lighted from the brand | â€"â€"â€"â€" of the year before and it had | to be kept burning on the| hearth (til Twelfthâ€"night Yule, | by the way, is an ancient Angloâ€" | Saxon word for Christmas. | n In Irish cottages. Christmas | In Irish cottages, Christmas candles shine in the dark of mountainside a nd glen. On Christmas morning, while it is still dark, candles light the way to early Mass. Up in Ulster, or Northern Ireland. a special and ancient custom is that of the Christmas rhymer. He visits house after house, giving tradiâ€" tional performances. The Irish call Christmas Eve the Night of Cdkes. That is when they bake a Christmas cake spiced with caraway seeds. Early Visit In‘ Holland, St, Nicholas brings the children presents on December 5, his own anniverâ€" sary. He is dressed in a red bishop‘s robe. rides a white horse and is accompanied by his servant, Black Peter. Men dressâ€" ed as St. Nicholas and Black Peter visit homes to give the children candy and question them _ about their _ behavior. Black Peter threatens to pop them into his sack unless they are good. St. Nicholas promises to return later with presents, and the children leave out their shoes for him to fill, along with m carrot for his horse. An ageâ€"old belief in Sweden beld that, in the long night« of the Yule season, trolls and witches came out of their hidâ€" ingâ€"placek. Aé midnight, it was believed, on Christmas Eve, the animals could talk. Long ago in Norway, people believed that, when the wind was high no Christmas Eve, the old Norse gods were sweeping down to make war on Christians. The‘ Finns do not use evers green for C‘hriomu] ‘ltt:rlthn‘. Some years ago, in Regina, Saskatchewan, the Netherlands Society gave a parade. 8t. Nicholas rode his white horse, accompanied by two Black Peters! straw, for the children to sleep on,‘ in remembrance of the Manager. The Danes cat a fine Christmas dinner of roast goose, not turkey.

At church, drums and castanets . accotmâ€" pany the choir, while a band plays in between. monks of Montâ€"Stâ€"Michel had a special custom for the 6th of January, Twelfth â€" Night, or Epiphany. They are cakes that had a bean hidden in one of them. The finder became Epiphâ€" any king. He sat on a special throné at Matins, High Mass and Vespers. To this day, in France, the Epiphany cake is cealled "the Cake of the Kings." This custom is also found in French Canada, Germany, Holâ€" land and Belgium. Portugal is different. The King Cake is very large and lasts from Christmas til _ Twelfth â€" Night. Whoever finds the hidden bean must pay for next year‘s cake. The Mexican home at Christâ€" mas will often be decorated with lilies, Spanish moss and evergreens. To the south, in Costa Rica, the Nativity scene is often so large as to fill a whole room of the family home. Still farther south, the Peruyâ€" ians set their Nativity scenes on their patios, Christmas Eve is usually hot, but the people make merry, wearing masks, olaying guitars, gourds and casâ€" anets. .A coulemeter is an for measuring the electricity â€" passing THE BOOK OF KNOWLEDGE LEONARD A BRAITHWAITE BAKRISTER & SOLICITOR Royal York Plaza 1500 Royal York Road Weston CH 9â€"2281 Evenings and Saturdays by Appointment.
