of the year for May is the only
month in 1955 that has a Friday, the

roans and Phoenicians because it
was their way of entreating Mother
Earth to be fruitful and give them a

were held to drive away the evil

believe but Friday was once the
Sabbath for many peoples. The
word "Friday" comes from a com-
lnation of three Norse gods, Frey,
Lord of the solar disc and god of
fertility, Freya, his sister, goddess
of love and Frigga, the wife of Wo-
den or Odin, the one-eyed god. In
honor of Frigga, the goddess of love
and marriage, the early Scandin-
awans thought Friday was their
luckiest marriage day• Many Hindus
regard it the same way and today
most Scotch people expect the best
fortune to follow if they marry on
Friday.
O O o
Our words "hell" and Friday both
come from goddesses intimately as-
sociated with cats. Hel was the
daughter of Loki, and goddess of
the dead and underworld. The
Norse mythology made the cat a
figure of worship. Freye, the Venus
of the North. goddess of beauty and
fruitful love, rode in a car drawn
by a pair of cats. In time in South-
ern Germany, Freya came to be
known as Hell, and though still
kind and beautiful, she now repre-
resented only the winter season and
became known not only as the god-
dess f ][fe, but also of death. When
the N 'ald Teutons were con-
verted i lristtanity, Freye was

ers were supposed to ride through
the air. To banish them• fires were
built around the villages. The next
day, the youngsters brought new
green boughs and flowers to their
cottages to be used in the ceremon-
ies. At dawn a wreath was left at
each cottage door by a troop of
joyous carolers who wakened the
sleeping householders to greet the
mornin of May day. Good fairies
blessed each house which had some-
i thing greeff on the door. Those who
believed in fairies put out howls of
milk for the refreshment of the
visitors and soon it was nll gone. I
can just bet it was!
e Oo
A May day custom that we have
inherited and which is practiced ex-
tensively, especially in smaller com-
munities, is that of giving May bas-
kets. Among the New Englanders
the practice was to give dainty
baskets of pretty crepe paper, filled
with fresh flowers• adorned with
tiny bows and containing a hidden
sweetmeat in the bottom• The bas-
ket was taken to the homes of
special friends and after a quick
ring of the doorbell the donor ran
off as fast as ever he could. In the
case of members of the opposite sex
the giver was supposed to receive a
kiss (if caught) from the one who
got the gay remembrance• May bas-
ket giving is quite popular among
the small fry in Park River each
year but, I have gathered, it is not
so popular with the mothers who
have to fix up the baskets. In fact,
the "baskets*' mostly turn out to ,be
slaezy paIr napkins with, the o,
hers brout to the cl.ter wttha
string or rubber band $1oldilNL,the
candy inside 'til it begins falling out
the bottom, that is. Can't say that
I've heard anything about any kiss-
ins accompanying local May basket
deliveries. But it sounds like a good
idea.
Oo
But to get back to Friday, the 13th
--here's some advice for tomorrow.
Don't walk unaer any ladders, es-
pecially if somebody is working
part way up on the thing. You may
get a conk on the head from some
tool. or other item and THAT cer-
tainly would be bad luck. If you
accidentally spill some salt. grab
a little of it as quick as possible and
throw it over your left shoulder to
avoid evil consequences. Spilling
salt any day is mighty ominous, but
on Friday, the 13th... it's curtains!
I o O o
If a black cat should loom on the
horizon tomorrow, run for your life
and be sure the black one doesn't
cross your path or you are in for a
I spell of bad luck. Such as stumbling
over him. maybe, if you are on the
fast move. And for pity sake, watch
out what you do with mirrors on
this day of ill repute. Should you
be so unfortunate as to break one,
you may as well resign yourself to
some tough going the next seven
years, because that's what the old
superstition says, You smokers had
better cheek carefully on that three-
on-a-match business tomorrow. Its
never a wise practice, but on Fri-
day the 13th. Wow! Mighty unlucky,
they say. And. while you're at it.
