Since the Three Wise Men
brought gifts of gold, frankincense
and myrrh to the Christ Child,
gifts giving has been linked with
the celebration of Christmas. Trac-
ing the custom back to this source,
the people of many nations still
present gifts not on December 25th
hut on Twelfth Night. January 9Th,
the date when legend says the Wise
Men appeared to the Holy Family.
Gifts giving at this season has,
however, many origins, all of them
now closely interviewer with Christ
mas In ancient times the Roman
Saturnalia and the TeutOnic Yule
festivals in Northern Europe were
both celebrated about the same
time as the modern Christmas.
At the Saturnalia Romans ex-
changed gifts of branches from
trees and shrubs. while gifts we're
tied on trees by Druid worshippers
during the Yulc festivals. From
this, gifts giving became one of
many pagan customs Incorporated

it into narrow folds.

Help Santa Wrap
Up his Christmas
Early And Pretty

Everyone appreciates a Christ
mas gift that is decorated in color
full Christmas wrapping, even when
the gift is too large to place under
the tree.
Hints for wrapping outsize gifts
are suggested by Miss Mary West,
Tie-Tie gift wrapping stylist:
l. TO wrap something long and
thin such as rifle, fishing pole,
umbrella or walking stick, begin
by cutting strip of corrugated
paper twice the width of the gift.
Form long, cylindrical shape,
placing the gift in the center.
Roll the cylinder one full turn
on gift paper and cut to allow a
tWo-inch overlap. Secure with glue
or tape. Cut end of paper to fold
exactly to the center of the base,

in the earliest observances of
Christmas as religious holiday.
The pagan WOrShippers had us
ually presented gifts as means
of paying tribute, often to their
rulers, but through the encourage
ment of early church leaders, the
exchange of gifts at Christmas
soon began to express the ideas of
generosity and doing good to others
Thank you" gifts to those who
serve and gifts to the needy SYM
bolize this meaning.
AS the birthday of the Christ
Child, Christmas has always been
an important holiday for children.
Today Santa Claus is their special
friend, but he is only the most re-
cert of a long line of gifts givers.
The first of these was St. Mich
olas, a real bishop who lived in
the fourth century A. d. Since he
was renowned for his generosity,
many legends about him soon de-
veloped. The date of his death,
December 9Th, became Childrens
Day.
Traditionally, on the eve of that
day ST Nicholas travelled the world
on horseback to deliver gifts re-
Warding well-behaved girls and
boys In some European countries
the day is still observed, and chill
dren put out food for the bishops
horse on December 5th
Among legendary holiday gifts
givers to children through the
years are the Three Kings them
selves, in Spain and South Ameri-
ca witch or fairy named Befana,
in Italy: and the scandinavian St.
Lucy, whose day of benevolence
is December 18th. But whatever
the name of the giver the spirit
expressed is always one of joyful
generosity

Special Stamp Has

letters and parcels can be stamped

when the first special Christmas
issue was a billion-seller.
The new stamp is a five-center

Printed in blue. green and red,
it carries the message, christmas

Washington, d. c., and, in the

educational features to their en-
tertainment advantages, now help
encourage creativity, too.
Adults get full share in the
news and excitement of Christmas
gifting this season. For women, a
world of fashion gifts brings pride
and pleasure, with practically.
This is a year of great variety in
fashion design, which makes it
even easier for Santa to select gifts
that appeal to her special inter
csts, taste and personality.
Personal interests are always a
good guide to gifting, and this is
particularly true in the case of
men, who have the reputation of
being something of problem when
it comes to getting the right gifts

ton has changed, for now mems
