Burning Christmas
Candles is an Old
Religious Custom

The following story about the origin
OF Christmas candles is told by Miss
Carlotte Baker, librarian at the Agri-
cultural College:
few years ago the city of Boston
revived the old custom OF burning q
candle on Christmas eve in honor of
the Christ-child Citizens were asked
to burn lighted candle in a front
window. preferably a small hall win
dow. from sun set until late in the
evening or midnight This custom has
spread until it has become general in
many places. A plumbers candle
costing 6 cents VIII burn the evening
through.
In medieval time the Christmas
candle was lighted along with the
''yule log" and with a wealth OF ever
green was placed on the upper table
or dias. In the Latin church, Christ
mas was formerly called the Feast of
Lights" and numbers of lights were
disp aged on this occasion The lights
and. the title were both symbolical of
the religious light that was dawning
upon the world. of the advent OF the
Light of Lights" and of the conquest
OF moral darkness.
In Ireland huge dip candles were
exhibited in the chambers shops, and
presented by them TO their customers.
There was always considerable cere-
mony observed with the lighting ol
the candles on Christmas eve. 1t was
thought unlucky to snuff one. and Ger
tain auguries were drawn from the
manner and duration OF their burning
