CHRISTMAS
CIRCUMCISION
Saturday
Families that observe the Twelve Days,
with all their happy customs, wili discover
the true meaning of Christmas.
EPIPHANY
The beautiful custom of celebrating the “Twelve Days of Christmas” is the
subject of an article by Father Francis X. Weiser, S.J., in the current issue of
Crosier magazine. The accompanying illustration (above) is the work of Chester
Sullivan. The custom of celebrating the twelve days from December 25 to January
6 as a continued observance of the great feast of Christmas is observed in many
Christian homes. “Fortunate indeed,” writes Father Weiser, “is the family that
keeps these customs alive, where parents and children know how to honor and ob
serve Christmas for 12 days in the spirit of the liturgical celebration.” (NC Photos)

Watch Out For Fires
This Christmas
After they put the blaze out,
firemen counted 12 dead — ten
of them children.
The time?
Christmas, 1956 — the worst
on record when measured in
terms, of sudden death from
traffic accidents, fires, falls,
drownings, and other miscel
laneous mishaps.
In all, 504 persons that
Christmas week-end died as a
result of accidents. And 60 of
them were fire’s victims.
A week-end later, New Year’s
1957, 340 more met sudden
death, this time 26 by fire.
And when fire was the cause,
how had it occurred? Why? Was
it the gayly-lighted Christmas
tree? Defective wiring- A light
ed cigarette carelessly discard
ed?
It could have been any one

of these causes or one of many
others as well.
But when all are reduced to
a common denominator, the
cause is carelessness. And this
can be avoided.
POTENTIAL HAZARD
Take the Christmas tree, for
instance. It’s a potential fire
hazard and caution should be
taken in its selection, placement
in the home, and maintenance.
You can play it safe by
choosing a small one. There will
be 30 million on the market.
Keep it outdoors until a few
days before setting up. During
that time occasionally throw
water over it. This will keep it
moist and fresh.
When you bring the tree in
side, cut the butt slantwise to
open the pores, then stand it in
a tub of water. Be wary of
chemicals or other substances
sold for “fireproofing” trees. In
some cases this process is in
effective.
In placing the tree, it’s best
to avoid “hot spots” such as
those near the fireplace, stove,
television set, radiator, or elec
tric bulbs.
Never use untreated paper
ornaments or untreated cotton

batting or gause for decoration.
Cotton and gause can be made
flame-resistive by dipping in a
gallon of water mixed with nine
ounces of borax and four ounc
es of boric acid.
Also, use only electric lights,
never candles. Be sure, too, that
wires are in good condition.
Frayed electric cords are indeed
a fire hazard.
The switch for turning on the
tree lights should be placed
some distance from the tree.
Never use an outlet or plug un
der the tree or run electric
trains around the base.
AVOID DEADLY
DECORATION
Here are some other sugges
tions:
If decorations are used about
the house, do not permit them
to be around or near to chairs
and other places where people
may smoke. It is preferable to
have them up near the ceiling,
well above the head of anyone
standing up.
Keep plenty of ash trays
about the house during the hol
iday season, as always.
If lights are desirable in win
dows, never use candles. Keep
curtains and other flammable
material pulled back at least 6
inches from any electric light.
Use non-flammable decora
tions of glass or metal, and
“fireproof’ snow in decorating
your tree for Christmas.
After you have opened your
Christmas presents, remove all
the gift wrappings and packing
materials from your living room
and dispose of them.
A child wearing a gauzy cos
tume and holding a lighted
candle can be transformed into
a flaming torch in a few sec
onds.
Santa’s whiskers are also fuel
for flames. A movie star who
played Santa Claus for a chil
dren’s party forgot he was
wearing a big white beard and
lit a cigar. The beard flared up
in his face.
A New York girl wore a black
net evening gown at a Christ
mas party. She brushed against
a lighted candelabra which im
mediately ignited her dress.
These incidents emphasize
the need for caution at Christ
mas. Wearing of flammable
flimsy costumes and dresses of
net or gauze-like fabrics should
be discouraged. If they are
worn, they can be made flame-
resistant with the following so
lution: nine ounces borax, four
ounces boric acid, one gallon of
water.
The fabric should be well sat
urated with the solution, then
wrung out by hand, and hung
to dry. Fabrics so treated will
retain their flexibility and
softness. However, the flame-
retardent qualities are lost
when the fabric is washed
again, and the process must be
repeated after each washing.
WHEN DRESSES
CATCH FIRE
When clothes catch fire —
don’t run. Throw the victim to
the floor and roll her in a rug,
a blanket or a coat. Wrap the
rug or blanket around the neck
first, to keep the poisonous gas
es of combusion away from the
face.
If no rug, blanket or coat is
available, roll the victim over
and over on the floor to smo
ther the flames. Running only
fans the flames. Since all fire
gases rise, a victim in an up
right position tends to inhale
the toxic gases.
It is in knowing what to do in
these instances that will save
your life.
Some of those who died last
Christmas didn’t know.
AFTERMATH
Poor little withered balsam,
Twisted, torn, and spent,
Waiting the call of our
ashman,
Out on the cold cement;
Poor little broken balsam,
Proudly you played
your part;
You held high His star of
Christmas
And still stand upright
in our heart.
—Oren R. Brown
THE CHRIST CHILD'S GIFT
By Frances Gass
Night and forgetfulness of
sleep
Wrapped those within the
room-filled inn,
Unmindful that a moment
deep
As all eternity would spin
Upon their slumbrous reach
of earth
As heaven heralded a Birth.
Tired pilgrims in hushed
Bethlehem,
Drowsy with evening
food and wine,
Hunger and thirst would
wake with them;
But now a Child as gift
divine
Brought bread and wine of
life, that men
Might never hunger, thirst
again.
