everybody is supposed to be asleep,
and even the youngest child re-
frains from 'peeking' until the
gifts are unveiled Christmas morn

Kris Kringle Isn't
Really Santa Claus

Popular notion seems to imply
that Kris Kringle is a German
term of endearment for Santa
Claus. Just what motivates this
idea is not at all clear, since Kris
Kringle is really modification of
Christkind who, although endowed
by German legend as a gift-giver,
resembles Santa Claus not in the
least.
Santa Claus, as we know him in
America, never really caught on
in Germany. St. Nicholas comes
around on his liturgical feast day
December - with his pockets
bulging with candy and nuts and
trinkets. Well and good, but Ger
man parents maintain, as did their
predecessors of the Reformation
era, that the central idea Of Christ
mas, the birth of Jesus, should
dominate the observances.
Nor is Christkind depicted as the
Infant Jesus himself. but rather as
his messenger and gift-bearer who
comes to earth at Christmastime
to bring happiness to good chill
dren. The Christkind is usually
represented as a child dressed in
white robes, wearing golden
crown and having big, golden
wings.

4ea Many Ways

CANTA CLAUS, INDIANA; Beth
~ lehem, Conn; and Christmas,
Fla, are few Of the more familiar
post offices which each year handle
a flood OF mail from senders wish
ing to obtain yuletide postmarks.
Although the federal post
office department has now
barred extra flourishes by local
postmasters using Christmas
symbols and notices, towns
own holiday name can still give
that festive touch to greeting
or package OF toys.
Indiana's Santa Claus is the only
town so designated in the United
States. The privilege is reserved to
its post office by congressional act.
There Is, however, Santa, Idaho.
There is also only one Christmas
the one in Florida-plus a Christ
mas Cove, Maine.
On the other hand, seven Bethle-
hens answer the seasonal roll call:
they can be found in Connecticut,
Georgia, Indiana, Kentucky, Mary
land, New Hampshire, and Pennsyl-
vania. The Bethlehem, Conn. post
office was one Of several stations
that figured in headlines recently
on the use of especially-designed
cancellation stamps bearing the
now-forbidden Christmas tree dec
grafton. The towns population is
about $50.
There are two Noels-in Vir-
ginia and Missouri. Last year,
Missouri's Noel post office re-
ported hand-cancellation OF a
record $50, 900 pieces of Christ
mas mail-S00 for each Of the
towns residents.
Besides specific Christmas names
that dot the land there are dozens
that call up Biblical or holiday as
sociations. There is Advent, w. Va,
for the Nativity. Kentucky has a
Mary, and Oregon and Utah a
Joseph each.
One Wiseman is found In Alas
ka and another in Arkansas. The
third, it may be assumed, is in
Wisemantown, KY. There are five
Stars and four Shepherds. West
Virginia contributes Goodwill; Mis-
souri,, Peace Valley; and there is
Joy in Illinois, Kentucky, Missouri,
| and Texas.
For the Christmas party, Tur-
key is available i'm four states;
Cranberry in three. Kentucky
has Mistletoe. Six states count
an Evergreen; seven Pine,
| and three Holly.
| Louisiana comes up with Trees,
Alabama with Candle; and to top
the decorations, Pennsylvania has
its Angels.

ancient traditions brought over
from the mother country Of Portu-
gal.
The Christmas season In Brazil
begins on Christmas Eve and ends
with Epiphany on January 6. And
because it Is really summertime
(south of the equator) festivities
and entertainments appropriate to
summertime hold sway throughout
the season.
Miracle plays have always been
performed in alteration of the Holy
Child. From olden times, the plays
have had all the dramatic fervor
OF a religious performance together
with the gracious hospitality of a
social function.
The scene is at once solemn and
fantastic, with costumes bedecked
with feathers, spangles, jewels
and what-not sparkling in a setting
of luxurious tropical foliage and
blossoms.
Out of the great variety of mira
Gle plays, all on different themes,
of which many are in the form of
elaborate dances meticulously per-
formed and accompanied by the
music of an orchestra, the dance
of the Four Parts of the World
may be cited as typical exam
pie.
The roles are enacted by girls
dressed for the part and, in, sue
cession, Europe, Asia, Africa and
America declaim. The discussion
finally involves their respective
rights to make obligation to the
Christ Child. Eventually, Father
Time appears and settles the dis
pute to the satisfaction Of all con-
cerned.
