The heart of it consists of folk dances in costumes of fur, trimmed with feathers and ornaments of ivy. feasting on rare delicacies; and the grand finale, present-giving. On the appointed day. a tong, picturesque caravan of dog teams arrives, hringing every member of the village, even the ill and the crippled, who may need assist ance The dancing lasts for days, as long as the entertaining village can produce feasting, provisions and entertainment.
