NEW AMERICANS CELEBRATE WITH’ QUAINT CUSTOMS Greeks and Jugo-Slavs In Montana Observe Late Christmas By William E. Gammon United Press Staff Correspondent 1 Butte Mont. Jan. 7—(UP) —This is Christmas day for some 7,000 1 Greeks and Jugo-Slavs of Butte and 1 Anacoqda. who are celebrating 1 ' Christ's birth with quaint customs Os the Balkan countries. To these thousands of new Amer- I leans, members of the Greek Or- I thodox and Serbian Orthodox churches the nativity of the Christ 1 is observed with prayer, feasting, peace making, and an historic “kissing game" in which old and young alike participate. The Old World beliefs of some 15 j Greek and Jugo-Slav fraternal or-1 ganizations. interwoven with the religious observances, lend color and spirit to the celebration. Early Ceremonies While :he day’s ceremonies pro I per started at 2 A. M. yesterday was a day of strict fasting, while some families, more devouf abstained fiom certain foods for a. more conI siderable period. Following the church services, men, women and children greet one another with a whimsical, merry .ustom; a man, upon meeting a particuplar friend, kisses him three times, once upon either cheek and full upon the mouth. Needless to say, bashful swains and shy maidens look forward eag erly to the end of the long services, to the time when kissing not only is allowed, bnt urged to promote lasting friendships among the young. Another Custom Another interesting custom concerns the preparation of the “Badynak,” or Christmas fire logs, and the first visit of a friend after the chtrrch service. Entering the house, the first visitor, known as a “Polaznik," scatters wheat over the threshold and announces in a clerical voice: “Christ is born." “Truly He is born," replies the family in unison- whereupon the “Polazitik" places a coin upon one of •he logs of the “Badynak" kisses the log and is given a present. So strong is ’his custom and so lireful the imprecations of ill to him denying absolution that should ■meh an occasion arise, others would intervene to obtain the po’.i- --; tinner's foregiveness. Historic difficulties threw the Or- ’ hdox observance of Christmas on lan. 7 of the Gregorian calendar, since adopted by most Christian ■ countries, but the Julian calendar still is used by many of Orthodox faith. : o — Blue-Blooded Horses There are approximately GOO registered Aniblnn horses in the I United States; there have been ! 12.000 Morgans registered.
