other lands are gathered today In the
little Umbrtan town of Gubbio. to wit
ness the famous procession of the c,crl.

been of heathen origin.
A cero Is a tall wooden pole or mast
which passes through the middle of
two lantern Bhaped frames of wood
and canvas, separated from each
other and surmounted by the figure
of a saint. The lower extremity of the
mast fits Into a wooden stretcher pro
vlded with two long shafts, one at
each end, so that It can be borne along
the steep streets and up the mountain
side above the town on the stalwart
backs of the young and vigorous.
These cerl are three In number, and
each Is surmounted by the Image of
separate saint the first by that of

George and the third by that of St.
Antonio.
St. George's cero rests on supports
epresentlng a heap of wine barrels, a
collection from various shops, a drum,
mace and battle-ax and a pile of
spears, because that warrior saint Is
the patron of the shop keepers, as ac
cording to Napoleon I, he was in Eng

ilshop gives his benediction to the cerl
