The big day is almost here.
Children .are "nestled all snug in
their beds" and Mom and Dad
run around feverishly finishing
up that last little bit of shopping
and preparing for the feast on
Christmas day. But sometimes
We get so caught up with our
time-schedules and last minute
rushing around that we forget to
stop and remember the real
traditions of Christmas,
And Christmas really is a time
of traditions: traditions that have
long since passed the test of time ;
traditions that come alive each
year for a few weeks and that the
children of today will pass on to
all the generations which follow
them. Take something as simple
as a Christmas card, for
example,
The year was 1843 and it was
almost Christmastime. Henry
Cole, an English gentleman was
surveying with dismay his long
list of friends and acquaintances
to whom he owed letters and
Christmas wishes of prosperity
and goodwill. But Henry Cole,
Director of London's Victoria and
Albert Museum had little time
to devote to letter-writing.
Then he had an idea. He
suggested to a close friend and
prominent member of the Royal
Academy, that he design a
Christmas greeting in the form of
a card which Cole could simply
address and sign and which
would save a great deal of tedious
handwork.
When the card was published, it
aroused so much interest that
about 1,000 copies were printed
and sold for one shilling each —
about 16 cents.
The design is made of a large
Centre panel with two smaller
side panels. The middle panel
depicts an obviously wealthy
family making merry over a
sumptuous Christmas dinner.
The twO side panels represent the
feeding and clothing of the poor.
Closer examination of the card
reveals a mother allowing her
small daughter to drink wine
from her glass. This design
caused considerable controversy
in 1843, and the artist was soundly
reprimanded for encouraging
this sort of thing.
However, for all the criticism
and friction it stirred up, the first
Christmas card created a custom
which is so much a part of the
tradition of Christmas today. It is
interesting to note that the
greeting on the card of 1843 - "A
Merry Christmas and a Happy
New Year To You" — is still the
most popular.
Another undeniable and
probably one of the best loved of
Christmas customs is that of
Christmas carols. Inspired by the
first Christmas night, they bring
a glow to people's faces, and a
feeling of contentment which
blots out day-to-day worries,
Probably one of the best known,
and my favorite is "Silent
Night".
The origin of this song has been
traced to a tiny Bavarian
mountain village called Obern-
dorf.
Legend has it that way back in
1818, Oberndorf was cut off from
the rest of the word by a severe
blizzard, The villagers were a
very musical people and despite
the weather conditions, had
planned to hold a musical
celebration in their tiny church.
Franz Xavier Gruber, the
village schoolmaster and church
organist, discovered that the
organ had broken down, and
knowing how disappointed the
people would be without music,
he went to the assistant priest
and suggested he write a special
song for the Christmas
celebration, He asked that it be so
simple that it could be sung
without any preparation.
Mohr agreed to try and sought
to find the words to best express
the feeling of Christmas. Gruber
composed a little melody to fit the
words,
Making fudge used to be a
tricky business; but now you can
do it two ways, You can still use
the old fashioned method and
hope to catch the boiling sugar
mixture at just the right stage,
that critical stage that missed by
just a few degrees leaves you
with eithera stickyunmanageable
mess or brittle sugary lumps. OR
you can avoid all the pitfalls, and
turn out smooth rich fudge every
time, without candy ther-
mometers, tricky cold water
tests or ,endless beating.
Today recipes start with light
cream and chocolate or but-
terscotch baking chips, the kind
you use in cookies. Although ten
percent (cereal cream) is per-
fectly adequate in these recipes,
eighteen percent (table cream)
makes a richer fudge that's the
delight of all candy lovers. It's
worth the little extra.
These candies are cooked only
that first Christmas, to envision
the star-struck sky and to
glimpse the ray of light that
changed the world."
This is my Christmas wish my
readers and friends. Merry
Christmas; and may 1973 see the
fulfillment of your dreams.
long enough to thoroughly
combine all the ingredients, then
chilled without beating. You will
find that candy made this quick
and easy method is slightly softer
than traditional fudge. For this
reason we find it easiest to handle
when shaped into rolls and
covered with nuts, The rolls
should be wrapped and
refrigerated; then you need only
slice and serve for a sweet treat.
