ROMANS SPARED
 CHRISTMAS BOXES

Boxing day has been cay Of gifts to public servants since Ro- man times. It originated as a ,agan custom. for the Romans ob- served the rite during their win ter least of Saturnalia. Later, when the people became Chris tiGus. the gifts were handed dur ing Mass to the priests who placed them into boxes. The feast was 4en known as Christ's Mass and the boxes as Christmas boxes, no to be opened except by being brok- cn.
 All manner or traGesmen soon realized that the idea was a good cnc, and it became a common practice for apprentices and others t1 take a box around to theii business acquaintances, singing car els the while.
 By the time Pepys wrote his ia nous diary, Christmas boxes were well established, and he mentions
The Daily Alaska empire., 1946-12-21

Working for the Volunteers O. America, I've played Santa to thou sands of youngsters during the last l6 years. I read lot of minds, too, during the depression when people plodded past my cardboard chimney; folks are happy now and he carols, that gave them far away look while war almost biacked out the Christmas Spirit, make them smile and drop coins in the chimney.
 Its fun to have a part in the happy Christmases of so many youngsters. Most of those that l see come downtown with theil mothers, and I try to get a nod of approval before I make any definite promises-kinda make sure the kids won't be disappointed.
 Just the same, I can't help linking about the kids never see who want dolls and dishes, drums and sleds, picture books, skates, IT ins and boots; what
 lot of helpers Santa needs to see that all these things get to the right places at the right time
 Wish we could be sure there will be no broken hearts this Chris mas"

Wise Men Patron Saints 0f Travellers

'l7~oe TEinos of Cclogne have become patron saints of travellers,
 -. .ppropnaJely, too. since the Wise Men traveled considerably even after their death.
 Bihlically we know very little about the Wise Men. Church tra- dition, based on the three spe- officially mentioned gifts, has es- abolished three Wise Men and iden- tified them as Caspar, Melchior and Balthaser; the Kings of Tar !. sus, Arabia and Ethiopia, respec- lively.
 Legend advances that on theG way to Bethlehem, the Magi met at UT and St. Matthew states that having adored the Christ Child, they departed into their own coun- try by different route. Whether each return to his own country or whether all three journeyed into one country are matters for con- lecture. Legend continues that they were baptized, distributed their wealth among the poor, and went about preaching the doctrine of peace and repentance; all three seem to have suffered martyrdom in India at the same time.
 In the fourth century Empress Helena, mother of Constantine, ar ranged for the transfer of their bodies to Constantinople.
 When the Greek Emperor was overpowered by the first crusade in 1096, the holy remains were sent to Milan where they were en- shrined until the latter part of the 18th century when Frederick Bar baroSsa ordered their removal to Cologne.
 The Archbishop of Cologne :, adorned the relics with precious jewels and enshrined them within the Cologne Cathedral: in time, anything which touched the skulls of the Three Kings was considered as a otaIm against accidents, hence, the Wise Men became popu- lar patron saints of travellers.

 One public servant, the bell nan" who enjoyed the privilege # soliciting Christmas boxes, was Il some respects the forerunner of he postman, often being com nissicned to deliver letters. At the

Smash ihe y)inaGa
 South Of Boyde7

Smashing the Pinata is a red letter feature of Mexican Christ mas festivities.
 An earJhen jar is filled with nuts, candies and small gifts. FL aborately disguised and decorated with tissue paper, etc, it often represents a dolls face or an en- tire figure-perhaps a bull fight CT.
 Children of the household, blind folded and armed with club, are each given three chances to break the Pinata. Inasmuch as the ba- sic earthen jar has been selected because of it's fragility, it shatters easily, releasing shower of goodies and trinkets and causing everyone in the party to scramoie for share.
