Halloween, October 31
Halloween is the day or evening before Alhallow’s or All Saints’ Day. Halloween customs date back to a time when people believed in devils, witches and ghosts. They thought that these evil spirits could do all kinds of damage to property. Some people tried to ward off witches by paining magic signs on their barns. Others tried to scare them away by nailing a piece of iron, such as a horseshoe, over the door.
Now most people do not believe m evil spirits. They know that evil spirits do not break steps, spill garbage or pull down fences. If property is damaged, they blame lively, naughty boys and girls. Halloween is still a bad night for the police.
American children celebrate Beggar’s Night as Irish children did in tile 17th century. They dress up in Halloween costumes and go out on the streets to beg. They often wear masks over their faces. They carry baskets and bags. They go from house to house. They jump on the porch. When the people come to the door, the children say, «Trick or treat! Trick or treat», meaning «Give us a treat or we will play a trick on you».
The most common trick is soaping house and car windows. The children draw pictures or write on the windows with soap.
A favorite Halloween custom is to make jack-o’-lantem. The children scrape out a pumpkin and cut the outlines of eyes, nose and mouth in its side. They light a candle inside the pumpkin to scare their friends. This custom refers to a man named Jack who still wanders around the earth lighting his way with a pumpkin lantern.
At Halloween parties the guests wear every kind of costume. Many of them wear masks. The hosts decorate the rooms with paper moons, witches, bats, ghosts and black cats. They set jack-o’-lantems in the windows.
Many games played at Halloween parties date back to the harvest festivals of very ancient times. The guests often bob for apples floating in tubs of water. Sometimes the guests try to eat apples which hang by a string from the ceiling. Of course they must not use their hands to catch or hold the apples.
Sometimes, the guests try to frighten one another by telling ghost stories around an open fire. But no one is really frightened. The stories only add to the fun.

Christmas Day
December 25 (Xmas): It is usually a one-day official holiday, but is preceded and followed by festive parties, and marked by special church services, gift-giving and feasting. Most churches have Christmas Eve services. The services usually begin just before midnight on Christmas Eve and end early Christmas morning.
Christmas is a family holiday. Stores, post offices, banks and business houses close for the day. Schools and colleges close between Christmas and New Year’s Day. The people stay at home and spend the time with their families. Everybody tries to come home for Christmas.
There are some superstitions associated with Christmas. To become engaged on Christmas is a sure sign of good luck in marriage. To be born on Christmas day is the prediction of a care-free life.
People send cards or Christmas greetings to family and friends away from home. They wish their friends «a merry Christmas» and «a happy Now Year».
Christmas cards are properly sent to anyone with whom one is at all acquainted. Many people keep a list of cards sent and received from year to year. If you do find, after the holidays, that you have forgotten someone, get in touch with them by telephone or note. Don’t send New Year’s cards to compensate for not having sent a Christmas card. When the day before the vacation begins, schools have Christmas parties and programs. The children sing carols. They recite Christmas poems. They trim their Christmas tree with strings of colored lights. They use strings of popcorn and tinsel. They put glass ornaments on the tree. They throw little pieces of white paper over the tree. They put white paper or a white sheet around the foot of the tree to look like snow.
At Christmas parties people often use mistletoe to decorate the rooms. Kissing a girl under the mistletoe insures good fortune. If a girl stands under the mistletoe this is an invitation to being kissed by any man. If she refuses it is bad luck; if she is kissed seven times in one day she will marry within a year.
Every house tries to have a Christmas tree which is decorated with tinsel, colored bulbs and tights. Sometimes they hang Christmas cookies on it. They also hang little candy canes for the children on it. Since it is customary for relatives and close friends to give presents at Christmas time, the presents are placed under tree.
Christmas as a modem carnival centers on a major superstition. Santa Claus comes from the North Pole (where he lives the year round) in his sleigh, dressed in red cap and jacket, entering the house through the chimney. He is a merry and fat individual full of chuckles. He has at his disposal gifts of whatever kind that could be wished for — nothing is neither too fabulous nor too trivial for him to provide. Children must be good and promise exemplary conduct to share in his generosity — but no child is ever passed by whatever the circumstances, if Santa has his will. Parents have access to him, smuggling the information he wants, to give all youngsters a rousing time. His eight reindeers which draw his overladen sleigh pass over the landscape unseen and yet their harness belts can be heard in the stillness of the night of Christmas Eve anywhere. He prefers children to hang up their stockings-much, much too small receptacles-near the chimney.
Little children believe that when they are asleep, Santa Claus comes to visit them. When he comes to the roof of the children’s house, Santa gets out of his side and comes down the chimney with a big bag of toys. If the children have been good, Santa fills their stockings with candy, fruits and toys. He also puts some toys under the tree.
On Christmas morning, the children look in their stockings. They open their Christmas packages and see their gifts.
Usually the whole family has a big Christmas dinner in the afternoon or evening.
Sometimes American families trim trees outside their houses. They put electric lights in a tree growing near the door. At night, they turn on the lights. Many towns have very large Christmas trees set up outdoors in the parks. The air is filled with the sound of Christmas songs, the stores are decorated in red and green, the traditional Christmas colors. Dozens of Santa Clauses welcome the customers.
