HOW CHRISTMAS
STOCKING ORIGINATED

Long ago in the city of Padua
in Italy there lived good man
whose life was spent in doing
good for the poor though he
wished for his kindness no
thanks, and did not even want to
be recognized on the arrands of
service. To hide his coming and
going hes usually set about on
his errands of mercy under the
cover of dark. and set aside for
his good works that holy night of
the year. Christmas eve. Under
the dark skies he would 60 from
house to house. where the real
needy and deserving poor were
known to dwell and then when
no one was looking. he would
throw into the window a money
bag. These money bags We're
purses made of yarn and fasten-
ed at both ends, their shape
being not unlike a stocking with:
out a foot. Naturally these gifts
from an unknown hand were
called the blessing of a saint. and
a saint indeed became the kind
man in the eyes Of his poor bene-
ficiaries. In time. however, the
people began to look for gifts on
Christmas eve and would hang
the purses out of the window so
the good saint could fill them as
he made his rounds. This was the
origin of the Christmas stocking,
and IS the background for. the
season that YOU hang up your
stocking on Christmas eve. After
a while money grew scarce and
toys were left instead for the
children, and some useful pres
ent for the older folks.
Every country has its good
saint. In Holland he is SAINTS
Claus. in Italy be is St. Nicholas
in Switzerland he is Samiklaus
in Germany he is Kris Kringle
| in Heligoland he Is Sonner Klas
and IN France he - Noel. But
mo matter what his name is he
is the spirit Of goodness and love
Askov American. [volume] (Askov, Pine County, Minn.) 1914-current, 1922-12-21

for only to true loving hearts
can the spirit of the saint come
and only to the good are his
blessings truly known.
