Oriental Christmas Customs Told
Christmas is a festive occasion
in the Western world, but behind
the outward show of joy is the
more significant religious meaning
the season holds. In Japan, as is
the case of other Oriental coun
tries where the doctrine of Chris
tianity is not the creed of the ma
jority, the Christmas season has a
meaning all its own.
The outward signs vary little
from those to be found in any
Christian country in the world.
The evolution of Christmas in
Japan' is remarkable in that it
,has come to be accepted even
though the majority of celebrants
are not Christian.
Shops Decorated
The acceptance of Christmas is
in a great part due to the effect
of American movies. They have es
tablished Christmas in Japan, al
though not in the sense that it is
celebrated in the Western Hemis
phere.
The Japanese Christmas is not,
basically, religiously motivated.
Stores and shops are given appro
priate decorations and some of the
restaurants serve turkey and
plum-pudding. Christmas is main
ly a holiday for the children.

place their stockings at the head
of their straw mats. They have
no beds on which to hang them.
They believe the white-bearded
old man will come through the
sliding door, known as the “shoji,”
to leave gifts. The absence of
chimneys in Japanese homes has
been offset by this more practi
cal means of entrance.
Christmas has become so per
manent to the children that par
ents must relent. The reason they
do so may be found in an old
Japanese adage that goes. ‘‘One
can never get the better of a cry
ing babe or a grasping landlord."
