Religious Bodies Observe Epiphany
Wednesday In Sacred Commemoration

millions of children in these coun-
tries hang their clothes with empty
pockets around the hearth. If they
have been good, their Santa fills the
pockets with confectionery and other
presents and if they have been bad
they get charcoal and birch rods.
In France, Belgium and Holland
professions of children tramp thru
the streets bearing large paper
star illuminated from within by a
candle. On the eve of the Epiphany
in Spain the children leave their
shoes and boots out in some con-
venient spot near the chimney and
in the morning they find them laden
with gifts.
England observes the memory of
the Magi's offering by games and
celebrations. The British sovereign
makes gifts Of gold, frankincense
and myrrh in the Chapel Royal at
st. James.
Although the celebration is not
as common in this country as in
the continent of Europe, an exam
ination of many of the calendars be-
ing distributed here shows the date
of January 6 to be marked as the
Epiphany, which numerous religious
groups continue to observe.

Concentrating the anniversary
of three different occasions when
Christ manifested his glory, the
Epiphany, the 18th day after Christ
mas, is celebrated by various relig-
ious bodies in this country on We'd
nesday. The observance in England
is known as Twelfth Night.
The three different occasions when
a special manifestation of the glory
of Christ appeared were: (1) In His
alteration in the manger by the three
wise men from the East, or Magi
(2) In His baptism, when a voice
from heaven proclaimed him the
Son of God; 60 In the marriage at
Cana, when He began His miracles
by changing water into wine.
The word Epiphany, being Greek,
established the fact that this festival
is of Eastern Origin and in the
Greek church it has always been
held the most important next to
Easter. The first mention of it oc-
ours in the year 200 in the writing of
Clement of Alexandria.
In Italy and in Russia children

lent of our Santa Claus on the
Epiphany and on Wednesday night

Christmas Seal
Sale Nets $500

Allen County Christmas Seal sales
at the end of 1912 aggregated $5,-
600, to top the total of the preceding
year by SIS.
Harry r. Meredith, county chair
man, pointed out that the drive is
still short of its goal by $1,000, a
quota of $4,000 having been set for
this year.
Possibility that the county's total
will be considerably bettered is seen
in the fact that of 1851 letters con-
tanning seals mailed to Allen county
residents on Nov. %, only slightly
more than half, or 5,771, have so far
been acknowledged.
