HOmemakers Council
Hears Madame COrea
At Recent Meeting

Madame G. C. S. Corea, wife
of the Ambassador from Ceylon,
spoke before the International
group of the County Council of
Homemakers recently and describ-
ed, in charming detail, life and
customs Of her native land.
The group was told that con-
tinuous invasions of the small is
land of Ceylon, just south of the
tip of India, which have come
from India and the west have con-
tributed to and lowered standards
of living there. She said extreme
poverty and the evils of absentee
landlordism have resulted. These
conditions, among others, have
contrived to deprive women of
many privileges, she added.
1t was explained that Ceylon is
an agricultural country and it's
population is made up of two dis
tinct races and languages. The
southern half of the country is
fertile and the people friendly and
generous. Southern inhabitants,
Madame Corea said, are Singalese
and are adherents of Buddhism.
On the other hand, in the north,
the land is drier and less fertile
soil forces to people to a ster-
ner way of life. The northern
ers are Tamils and follow the
Hindu faith.
Her countrymen are deeply re-
ligious, Madame Corea stated, and
the various faiths live side-by-
side. She said Christian mission
aries are always welcomed there
and it was through their efforts
that some of Ceylon's schools and
colleges were built.
Mrs. Ralph Beall, who has been
chairman for two years of the
committee who heard Madame
Ceylon, reported to the group on
the years activities of the "a
participating clubs and outlined
an eight-point program for the
year to come.

pocket and dropped them down the
chimneys.
In 1922, when Clement C. Moore
wrote "a Visit from st. Nicholas"
better known today as "The Night
Before Christmas" he changed
Irving's Dutch-customed st. Nicl
into his present-day garb and
shortened his long-stemmed Dutcl
pipe to a "stub" He also enshrin
ed Santa Claus in sleigh.
1t was Thomas Mast, famed
American cartoonist who, in 1868,
produced his famous picture "San-
ia and His Works" and gave the
United States Santa's work shop
his record of good and bad deeds of
children, a pack of toys and stock
ings hung at the fireplace.
In England, children believe in :
Father Christmas" instead of
Santa Claus. In that country the
giver-of-gifts is pictured as a gen
tleman dressed in a long-tail coat
and squarish beaver hat.
And did you know that in the
days of the early colonies in the
United States celebration of
Christmas was frowned upon in
New England, and it was against
the law to make mince pies in Mas
sachusetts and New Haven colo
MES?
Have you wondered about the
"wassail bowl" and where it origi
mated? Gin the 1400s Henry VII
introduced the custom of drinking
the wassail bowl as drink of good
cheer and wish for success in the
coming year. 1t was an old Scan
dinavian custom. Recipe? Hot ale,
spices and toasted apples. In some
countries, crops, trees and beehives
are "wassailed" at Christmas to
insure agricultural prosperity.

no way resembled the present-day
relocated giver-of-gifts, was St.
Nicholas the Wonder Worker, or
St. Nicholas of Myra. He was a
bishop back nearly 1400 years ago
and became the patron saint of
children, young men, and of sailors
of Greece and Sicily.
In the Netherlands, the feast of
st. Nicholas is celebrated on De-
cember 6. When the early Dutch
settlers came into New York State
they brought with them the old
custom of celebrating st. Nicholas
Day and the words "Santa' Claus"
to describe st. Nicholas resulted
from the English settlers corrup-
ton of the Dutch pronunciation of
st. Nicholas
Santa Claus, however, in his
present form is strictly an Ameri-
can institution. Back in 1909,
writer Washington Irving describ-
ed him in his "Knickerbocker's His
tory of New York" as a jolly fel-
low with a broad brimmed hat
smoking long-stemmed pipe. Irv
ing pictured Saint Nicholas as rid
ing over the housetops in a wagon
and said he took presents from his

Santa Claus Portrait Offers Mute
Testimony on Fabled GiUer-Of- Gifts

Did you know that portrait of the original Santa Claus
hangs in the Metropolitan Museum in New York. and that it
from this benign old gentleman who lived back in the
Fourth Century that the Santa Claus story came to the
world?

100000 was presented to the com- mittee, which is almost $4 million more than allowed by the Senate committee. The projects on the priority list included schools at Kodiak, Rake, Fairbanks, An chorage. Sitka, Wasilla, Fort Yu- kon, Sand Point, Ketchikan, Skagway, Craig and a dormitory at the University of Alaska. Wa ter and sewer projects for Wran- gell, Craig, Seward, Eastchester, Cordova, Valdez and Nenana were listed, together with utilities for Fairbanks, a warehouse at Anchorage, a municipal building at Juneau, streets for Cordova and Pelican, and fire protection facilities at Nome.
 The House allowance of $20 mil lion for road construction in Alas ka was agreed to by the Senate committee, representing a reduc- ton of S1,700,0O0 below the bud get request. This amount includes $8 million for liquidation of last years contract authority. The Senate, however, increased the funds for the operation and main- tenance of Alaska roads from the House allowance of $2,60O,000 70 $2,900,000. The President had ask ed $3,300,000 for this work.
