Christmas as a World of Light, From Scotland to Rome
Mrs. Andrew Horn, born in Scotland and living in Odessa, led a December 9 Christmas dinner discussion at Mrs. Fred Howard’s home. She explored how diverse cultures celebrate Christmas with light, detailing festivities from India’s Diwali to Germany’s Christ Kind, Italy’s novena, and Scotland’s Hogmanay, ending with a benediction from Rev. Dr. Dougald Lachlan Maclean at the Highland gathering in North Carolina.
