There are no superstitions today
so fantastic as that in Norway where
it was once believed that those who
dared to go out into the winter dark-
ness on Christmas night could see
through windows the people destined
to die during the coming year—sit-
ting headless in their chairs, The F-7
danger of midnight cavorting in these PI
days was the dread Oskeneien, a cav-
alcade of unblessed spirits, who tore
through the air trying feverishly to

HMG RICHARD'S
CHRISTMAS FEASTS
Once upon a medieval Yuletide,
King Richard III, of England cele-
brated at Litchfield—and during the
festivities, 2000 oxen and 200 tons of
wine were consumed.
Of course, the feudal set -up pro-
vided the great lords with the where-
withal for magnificence—the lords
received gifts from their tenants
and kings received gifts from their
nobles; and the graduated scale for
giving and receiving was as well as-
certained as the quiddam honorarium
of any barrister or physician.
Queen Elizabeth received a large
part of her wardrobe as gifts from
her courtiers, and if the quality or
quantity was not satisfactory, the
donors were unceremoniously inform-
ed of the situation.
When Hery Ill entertained a thous-
and knights, peers, and assorted
nobles who came to attend the Yule-
tide marriage of the Princess Mar-
garet, his majesty received a royal
Christmas gift of 2,700 pounds, plus
600 fat oxen from the Archbishop of
York.
With similar assistance, whether
exhorted or given in the spirit of
generosity appropriate to the season,
hiS majesty could well afford to give
Christmas feasts for the poor like
the one given in Wesminster Hall in
1248, which lasted a week.
