USE or CHRISTMAS STOCKING
Coed 81 Nicholas, saint Of Fourth
Century Of Christian IRA,
Founder Of Custom

cGTT~a HRlSTNEAS stockings have
NN come down to as from the
eTg9 good 81. Nicholas. who was
saint Of the fourth cen.
fury OF the Christian era
and was born December q. So. I'm
Lycla. Asia Minor. He was regarded
as especially the patron saint OF chill
dren. young girls and sailors The
Christmas stocking custom arose az
follows:
Ii seems that st. Nicholas who was
the archbishop OF Myra. lived In the
same town with an impoverished no
bleman who because be had no por
tlons to give his daughters. and indeed
no means with which to support them,
was about to sell them into life Of
sin. st. Nicholas. who was aecus,
toned to dispense his large fortune In
gifts Of charity, resolved to rescue the
young women. AS he approached
their house wondering how he should
proceed. the moon shone out and dis.
played an open window. Instantly 81.
Nicholas threw a purse Of gold In a.
the window which. falling at the feet
Of the father OF the girls. enabled him
to portion his oldest daughter. The
second time st. Nicholas visited the
house he also was able to throw q
! purse Of gold through IN open window,
| thus providing for the portion Of the
second daughter. On the third visit
the father. watching for his benefae-
tor, cast himself at the feet Of the
saint and cried:
"oh. St. Nicholas. servant Of God.
why seek to hide thyselfy'
The saint made the father promise
not to reveal his henefaetlons, From
this habit OF bestowing gifts In secret
and under the cloak Of night arose the
practice Of putting out shoes or stock
lngs for the younger members OF the
family. so that the good saint would
be able 10 an them without being spiec
on. At one time Il was the custom
for young women pupils in converts
on the even Of Saint Nicholas 70 hanl
their new silk stockings on the dool
Of the apartment OF the abbess. The!
would also write notes calling tn
attention OF the good 81. Nicholas
to their stockings. In the morning
when the convent pupils who had no
gone home for the holidays arose the.
invariably found their stockings tille'
with sweetmeats.
