Classics Provide
Yuletide Melodies
In this century, hymns and
carols of the Nativity have
been composed by Peter War-
lock ("Bethlehem Down")
and Gustav Holst ("Mid-Win-
ter" )—among others.
Often, hymns and carols
have been set to the music
of classic composers.
One example is, "While
Shepherds Watched Their
Flocks by Night," by Nahum
Tate. Music for this came
from Handel's opera, "Siroe,"
as adapted by Richard Storrs
Willis.
JINGLE, BELLS
Most-sung American secu-
lar carol is "Jingle, Bells,"
written by James Pierpont of
Massachusetts in the 1850's.

That old carol really isn't
"God Rest You, Merry Gentle-

You Merry, Gentlemen." J . •

Christians
Celebrate
Holy Day
With Prayer and
Thanksgiving
For those who celebrate
Christmas as a holy day," the
holiday is, greeted with re-
joicing,' with prayer and
thanksgiving, in church and
private devotions.
The word "greeting" has
a' special significance here,
for herald angels singing to
shepherds in the fields and
a star shining in the heavens
truly brought 'greetings"--ac-
cording to the, Revised Stan-
dard Version of the , Bible,
"good news of great' joy
which will come to all
people."
Long' before the December
25 birthdate of Christ was.
celebrated in devotions, it had
marked a season set aside for
another kind, of greeting. In
Northern Europe, Teutonic
tribes of pagan times greeted
the rebirth of the sun, of the
winter solstice.
Earliest celebrations of
Christmas combined some of
the ancient pagan traditions.
By association with Christian
beliefs, old customs of greet-
ing the sun became symbolic
of a recognition—a .greeting
of faith, hope and life eternal.
