Before Revolution Russians Welcomed New Year Heartily Pre - revolutionary Russia welcomed wel-comed the New Year with booming cannon a hundred shots fired at midnight. The observance of the New Year on January 1, according to the Gregorian calendar, was instituted by Peter the Great In 1700. The evening of December 31, known as St. Sylvester's Eve, was the time for great fun and enjoyment. In Petrograd (later St Petersburg, Peters-burg, and now Leningrad) the streets were gayly decorated with flags and lanterns, and thronged with merry-makers. After the booming cannon ushered in the New Year, the Czar formally received re-ceived the good wishes of his subjects. sub-jects. On New Year's Day the Winter Palace was opened to society. Festivity Fes-tivity reigned throughout the city, hospitality and charity were the watchwords from palace to cottage, cot-tage, at least, at New Year's time.

He was usually depicted astride a boar, symbolically associated with the pork served for New Year dinner and the symbolism of Aryan descent.

Japanese bells ring out 108 times at midnight on New Year's Eve, ushering in the New Year and reminding re-minding the people of the 108 commandments com-mandments of Buddha. Among the ancient customs still observed, there Is the practice of scattering parched beans about the house, supposedly driving away evil influences and inviting good luck to enter. Firemen always have been popular pop-ular heroes because the flimsy construction con-struction of Japanese homes involve tremendous fire hazards. So another an-other feature of New Year's Day is the annual dezomeshiki parade of the fire brigades. The people of Japan still observe many age-old customs, with regard to the New Year. New Year Observed March 25 in England Before Calendar Change Prior to England's adoption of the Gregorian calendar in 1752, New Year's Day was observed on March 25, and of course. New Year's eve was March 24.

Even after the restoration of the Stuarts brought about a revival re-vival of Christmas customs and traditions, Christmas never reat-tained reat-tained its former eminence; but New Year went right along, surviving sur-viving Puritanism and later, in 1752, the switch in calendars and the date of its observance.
