- (continued from previous page)On Christmas Day a feast is in every house. There are three masses said in every Church because it is the greatest feast in the year. On that day a number of people dress in coloured clothes and go about from house to house gathering money. On Christmas evening the people usually put a light at every window in the house and they are left lighting until mid-night.
