On the Day After Christmas OCR word Santa Claus Is a cor ruption of the Dutch San Nic olas, and the story of the original saint from whom the name and the custom come Is told In the Encyclopedia Brltannlca as fol lows: "St. Nicholas, bishop of Myra. in Lyclii, a snliit honored by the Greeks and the Latins on Dec. 6. "His cult Is as celebrated ns his his tory is obsouro. All the accounts that have come down to us are of n purely legendary character, and t is Impossi ble to find any single Incident confirm ed historically. "The main facts of his life are usual ly given as follows: lie was bishop of Myra at the time of the ICmperpr Dio cletlan, was persecuted, tortured for the faith ami kept In prison until the more tolerant rel«n of Consluntlne und was present at the council of Nlcaea.

It is more especial ly, however, from the time of the re moval «f his body to Barl, In Apulia, that his cult became popular. "The Inhabitants of Barl organized an expedition, seized Ills remains by means of a ruse and transported them to Barl, where they were received In triumph on the 9th of May. 10S7. and where the foundations were laid for a new basilica In his honor. This was the origin of a famous and still popu lar pilgrimage. There are nearly 400 churches In England dedicated to St Nicholas. He Is the patron saint of Hussla, the special protector of chil dren, scholars, merchants and sailors. "In art St. Nicholas Is represented with "farlous attributes, being most commonly depicted with three chil dren standing In a tub by his side. Of the various Interpretations of this none Is absolutely certain. "One explanation has been sought In the legend of Rt Nicholas miraculously restoring to life three rich youths who had been murdered, cut up and con cealed In a salting tnb by a thievish innkeeper or butcher In whose house they had taken lodging. "A legend of his surreptitious be stowal of dowries upon the three daughters of an Impoverished citizen who, unable to procure Ot marriages for them, was about to sell them is said to have originated the old custom of giving presents In secret on the eve of St. Nicholas, subsequently trans ferred '.o Christmas day.
