Mr. and Mrs. James Knecht | are sharing their daughter's letters with readers of the Dal- las Post. i } | 1 1 { | Christmas here in Sweden was so wonderful I thought I would | write and tell you something about | it. The holiday season really began on December third, the first of Advent. Every family has a set’ of four Advent candles and one is lighted each Sunday in Advent. We also have the candles in the school tand in the Church. The small children have an Ad- vent tradition all their own. The Girl Scouts and local “shops dis- tribute Advent Calendars which are pictures with numerous squares. | Each day in December you open | the “window” which corresponds to the date. Behind this is another little picture. This was a solemn ritual in our house, but of course, it’s not half as much fun if you don’t peek ahead once in awhile. December 14 was Lucia. This is a very amcient custom in Sweden, celebrating the beginning of winter and the longer hours of daylight. Even here in the southermost part of Sweden, the sun sets before 3:30 p.m. in December, so one can see why it was such an important celebration. The old Vikings mis- calculated by a few days, but the tradition remains and is really lovely. I was very fortunate, in that T was chosen to be Sancte Lucia at *he school. This is quite an honor and the dream of most little Swed- ish girls. Lucia and her twelve at- tendants assemble very early to dress in the traditional costume— 1 long white robe with a red sash ind a crown of bayberry leaves and real candles. The attendants also wear white robes with a. halo and sash of tinsel. They carry lighted candles. These candles in Lucia’s crown and those carried by the attendants are the only light in the large = auditorium. The procession is led by a boy dressed as an Archbishop, followed by Lucia, her attendants, who are singing a carol, and lastly a lit- tle boy dressed in black represent- ing the darkness which will now diminish = daily. Lucia gives her welcome which is very lovely in Sweden but loses its poetry in translation to English. I recited it in Swedish and some of the words were a little difficult. For examp- le “manniskosjal” and ‘stamnings- fylldsang” were two of the most difficult ones, but I think, or at least hope, I was understood.

After the song “Sancte Lucia”, several other carols, and the reces- sional, Lucia and her attendants served coffee ‘and a special Lucia saffron’ bread to the faculty. This ceremony is duplicated in most schools and all the towns and cities have Luecia’s too. Jul Afton, the 24th of December, {is the day when jultomten (Santa | Claus) comes, therefore, it is the | more exciting part of the celebra- | tion, especially for the children. | Trees are trimmed here with elec- [tric candles and some ornaments {such as we use at home, but most {of the decorations are made of | paper. We also had many flags on | our tree honoring the countries of lall those present. “The family” was | increased to fourteen members for | the holidays. From Sweden, Amer. {ica, Jamaica, India and Finland; | we were Protestant, Catholic, Jew, and Hindu; White, Negro, Chinese, {and Indian, but these differences were scarcely noticed, we were just another large family celebra- ting Christmas. ; Traditional Christmas dinner cen- ters around a huge ham, but there are many other things too—the famous Swedish meatballs, herring, several kinds of sausage, potatoes and several other vegetables, ap- plesauce, jams, sauces and Christ mas cheeses. After several helpings of everything, but before the des- sert, there comes a dish called Lut- fisk. Putting it mildly, this is the most shocking thing I've ever eat- en! A kind of codfish, it is caught and dried in the summer; in the autumn it is soaked for several days in lye ‘and then in water.

The long school holiday was filled with much excitement and the New Year was ushered in with parties and much fun just as it is at home. There are so many un- forgettable things about this year and I'm loving every minute of it. PARLIAMENT OPENS January 11 was the opening of the Riksdag (Parliament) and the graduating class at school watched it on TV. The king opens the session but this is the only time in the year that he goes to the meeting. This is so that he cannot force his in- fluence on any of the represen- tatives. Of course these days he | doesn’t even want to, but at one {time was very important. The wives of representatives and other officials are all dressed in court attire—long dark dresses with short, very old-fashioned sleeves. The necklines and jewels are the only ways .in which one woman's attire varies from. another. | The diplomatic. corps is also’ pres- | Lent, but their wives: are attired | in formal clothes but not the court | dress. $5 aE Le | Upon their arrival, the Queen | and lovely Princesses curtsy three | times—to the diplomatic corps, and | the people. The crown pririce fol- | lows and bows ‘in the same man- | ner. The King is. preceded by an | honor guard of soldiers dressed in | the ancient uniforms’ used ‘ during | the reign of Karl ‘XI. They are’ very picturesque with their’ metal | breast-plates, = tricorn hats, and boots that come up above the] knee. v:) The Swedish crown rests on a‘ special - cushion above the throne. | Neither this king, Gustaf VI Adolph, nor his father were officially crowned (because of the extrem- ely high costs of such: ceremonies), therefore he” is not permitted’ to wear the. crown. He opens the | Riksdag with ‘the traditional greet- | ing, “Swedish men and women, elect- ed representatives or Sveriges folk” and a short speech. We are now studying the work- ings of the Riksdag in our history class. S ; A FULL SIX MONTHS It hardly seems possible. that six months have passed ‘since IT left home. The time has flown by and it looks as though it will continue to do so. Perhaps you have ‘heard that the exchange students ‘who are in Holland and Denmark and Sweden are to take a. trip to Paris in. the Spring. We are all looking forward to this eagerly, not only because we will’ see Paris, but it’ will ‘be such fun to get together and discuss our experiences: as ex- change students. We are grateful for the efforts of the Rotary clubs in Holland for arranging this. ; I am also looking forward to.
