80 HERE ere certain days in the
~ year which from time immem-
III orial have been the occasion for
49, celebrations having some re-
ligious or national or seasonal signih-
cance. May day is partly religious
and partly seasonal, or. rather II may
be said that May first was selected as
a feast day because at that time of
the year all nature is budding with
new life and beauty afTording an APP
propriate season for expressing the
joyousness Of human nature in the
hope that it will be inspired with the
freshness ard invigorating spirit
which nature SO gloriously and
bounteously exhibits al that time.
Festival OF Flora.
The actual basis for the MAY day
festivities seems TO have been the
Roman Floralia celebrated from April
IS until May 8. and instituted at Rome
in the year gas. b. c. Flora, to whom
the feast was consecrated was likewise
9. fertility goddess and it may he taken
for granted that the elements of her
rites were similar TO customs which
had previously been associated with
the festival of Maia. So Ike many
OF our feasts May festivities are a
survival OF pagan days.
Even today in the north OF Eng
land and In Sweden people rise short
w after midnight and walk to some
neighboring wood. marching TO the
rythm of music and after breaking
or tree branches return home at day
break and deck their homes with gar
lands of leaves and flowers. After
part OF the day is spent in feasting Il
has long been the custom 20 set up s
