Ukrainian churches, both Greek
Orthodox. and Uniate, cling to the
ancient Julian calendar, so their
Christmas Day comes 12 days later
than ours, or on January 6. Christmas
Eve is celebrated with much tradition-
al ceremony and festivity,
The Holy Supper or Swiata Wecera
is very elaborate, consisting of 12
courses, in memory of the 12 apostles.
Fish, baked, broiled and jellied, takes
the place of meat. Borsch, or beet
soup, is generally served, and stuffed
cabbage, filled with millet or rice,
Varenki, something like the Italian
ravioli, also is a usual course. Des-
sert consists of special pudding called •
imtya, made of wheat, poppy seeds
and honey.
During the Christmas Eve supper,
some member of every Ukrainian fain-
ily throws a handful of kutya or mid,.
ding at the ceiling, If it sticks, the
coming year will be a prosperous and
happy one, After supper,. a plate of
braided bread, called kolach, is leff-ou
the table between two lighted candles..
Legend says that the spirits of .the
family's dead will return at midnight
to eat this bread,
The Ukrainian Christmas festival'
lasts three days, In the villages Sing-
.ers known as Kolyadniky go from
house to house singing the KolyadICY
folksongs relating the birth of Chris
and the event of his life, They usually
carry a manger with them, and in
some cases they perform miracle
plays. They are rewarded by gifts of
food or money,

It's a wonderful idea—means three kinds
of icebox cookies from one recipe—and
economical, too. You make three rolls
each a different flavour. Anytime, you
can slice some off—pop them in the oven
and have delicious, crispy cookies ready
in no time.
