Although Christmas is no longer a holiday in Soviet Russia, a non- religious midwinter festival is celebrated and children receive gifts from "Grandpa Frost."

In Czarist Russia, it was cus- tomary to well-to-do families with large homes to entertain lavishly on Christmas day. The invitations were extremely formal and begged the invited to consider that.

''...for thousands of years it has been so; with us it has not commenced. with us it will not cease. Do not, therefore, disturb the festival; do not bring the good people to despair. Without. you there will be no maiden festival at Anna Karpowna's."

In planning rtliese housepaitles. hostesses gave particular attention to the selection of partners for the young ladies. The selection was sometimes very satisfactory and sometimes left something to be desired.

Arrival of the ”fair maidens". each with her mother and retinue. bringing cake and swectmeats and gifts for everyone. proceeded ac-

cording to prescribed ritual ' the guests sooner freezing in their sleds before the gate than to

alight before receiving the greet- ing of the host and hostess.

Having been cercmoniously wel- comed, the guests offered prayers before the icon (sacred picture) and tllcn proceeded to the feast- ing and festivities arranged for them.

The clock struck nine as Nola hung tiir bauble on the fragrant green Christmas tree. Without e-veil stepping back to admire the finislieii effect she went to the front window and peered out. A cold white moon iilumined a. cold white earth. she shivered. How lonely she had been in this tiny. quiet village!

when she had written Jim two months before that she was being tllcied from their apartment in Chicago he had answered, "I'm hoping against hope to be home from occupation duty in time for Christmas, and I can't think of any place more perfect than Pine- vilie to spend the holidays or my terminal leave. Remember my fell- ing you what happy summers I silent there as is child. and how lid always wanted to see it in winter? Do investigate this, as s. Chrsimas present for me. Nola darling."

And now it was Christmas Eve. "lies not going to make it and that's lhat," Nola thought miser- lbly. She knew that he had land- N at San Francisco three days before and had been trying des- ncrately to get a. seat on a train 0? plane.

Ul1AKLU' l' l'E'l'U W N i-Christmas Bells' 195 1

The finger of Time is pointing to Christmas store windows are full of nice toys- Trains and dolls and pretty things For little girls and boys.

Soon the bells will be ringing

Across the hills and valleys.

The joyous sound should reach us all

And echo in the darkest alleys.

On Christmas eve the bells will ring

O'er mountains, sea and land,

Telling of the wondrous birth

In tones so sweet and grand.

In the niidniglit hour so cold. In a lowly cattle shed,

The King of Kings was born, In a manger for His bed.

He comes to us in story old Bringing joy to all who heed The greatest story ever told-and should , To peace and friendship lead.

Reflect upon this midnight hour

The vision of the Saviouris birth.

Then kneel and pray, such peace as this

May reign again upon this earth

Oh! may the troubled peoples pray For hardened hearts to melt, And cease the raging conflict Which all the world has felt.

God loves 'tlle little childrczi

He leaves them in parental care.

But cruel war has cheated many-

Our duty now is "help and share".

Do not forget some needy child. Go share your wealth with him For an act of kindness here on Earth A joy in Heaven will surely bring -Lena Vessey Portland 5, Maine (Formerly of Montague).

beaten egg. and cut a deep cross on each bun with a knife so that they may be broken into triangu- lar pieces when baked. Set to raise in a warm place. and bake in a

hot oven (400 degrees F.) for 10 minutes. Then reduce heat to moderate (375 degreesi and bake

approximately 10-13 minutes long- er or until browned. The caraway seeds may be omitted.
