C. tf White House Tree stockings in hopes that/St. Nicholas would fill them with dQjvries. After a time, St. Nick and'’ the stocking hanging custom Weis incorporated into the celebration of Christmas. Another legend says that on Christmas eve the spirit of St. Nich olas rode across the land on a great white horse followed by the hosts of innocents slain in Bethlehem by the order of Herod. Children of the Northland filled their Wooden shoes with oats for the Saint’s horse and set them outside of the door; in the morning, providing the children had been good, the oats were gone and the shoes were filled with nuts and apples. Eventually, the boys and younger children, the wftes and husbands, and even the grandparents, decided the girls were getting too much the best of things; so, they all joined the International Society of Stock ing-hangers. Our ancestors brought St. Nick to America, where he has grown round and fat and jovial, traded Kis great white horse for eight magic rein deer, and his pack bulged bigger and bigger. This year Santa’s pack may be minus a few luxury products and mechanical gadgets, but that doesn’t matter as long as there are mamma dolls, sleds and drums and picture books; toys for the children.
