Show ' New Indian groups, but die time for such ceremonies varied. For the Seneca, an Iroquois group of the Eastern Woodland, the New Year begins in February; for the Eskimo, in the fall; California for the Northwest tribes, late in July; for the Hopi, in November; and for other Pueblo Indians, at the winter solstice. observances YEARS NEW among die Indians varied from area to area. The Seneca rites, for instance, last a total of seven to eight days. On the first day all fires are put out and the ashes scattered. New fire is made and a white dog is strangled and hung up. During the next days people in masquerade rush from house to house, boys steal food, people ask for interpretations of their and women sprinkle dreams, water on passersby. On other days sins are publicly confessed, and the white dog is carried on a slab of bark to an altar and burned. There are speeches, songs, prayers and offerings of tobacco. These New Year's observances may seem strange. To citizens of other countries, however, current American customs may also seem peculiar. To quote one source on New Years customs: Many Occidental countries mark the passing of the old year and the arrival of the new by elaborate balls, drinking and generally immoderate behavior in which, at midnight, everybody blows horns, rings bells, shouts, throws confetti, sings Should old acquaintance be forgot, drinks ad- ditional toasts which are usually not needed, and, as an important part of the ritual, tries to kiss all the prettiest girls in the party, who offer enthusiastic collaboraAmerican Years Around the World While you may raise your glass of champagne from France and sing Auld Lang Syne when the clock strikes 12 on New Years Eve, your Japanese counterpart may be sipping cola from America while singing Otanjobi Omcdeto Cozaimasu (Happy Birthday to for the stroke of midnight means its You) everyones birthday.
