i WANTED NO THANKS
The stocking custom is suid to
I have started with St. Nicholas,
original of Santa Claus, a Greek
bishop, Nicholas of Myra, who
lived in the fourth century. He
was both generous and shy, and
hated to be thanked for the pres
ents he was continually making to
those in need.
j Once he climbed to a roof top
and dropped a purse of gold down
the chimney so that he would not
be seen. The money, instead of
falling in the fire, lodged in a
child’s stocking that had been
hung up to dry on the mantel- |
piece.
His act became known, and i
thereafter whenever unexpected i
gifts came from unknown sources !
they were attributed to St. Nich- j
olas.

Shoes replaced stockings at the

before World War II.
