at new years time the origin of the custom is really lost in antiquity saxon ancestors probably quaffed their ale from the polished skulls of defeated enemies and the row- cna legend must be classified as presumably fiction rowena is repotted to have offered her fathers guest prince vortigren a bowl of wine with the salutation lord king wasshael literally to your health draining the bowl with one draught vortigren fell in love with rowena and they lived happily ever after anyway in time the bowl it self became an ornament of graceful design decorated with branches of greenery that form ed a canopy over the bowl the mixture within was warm and included ale suger spices swee tened wine was added by hosts who could afford it apples float ed on top of the decoction some times called lambs wool or the old mans beard the custom of making short calls on new years day was in full swing throughout america about 1900 newspapers carried columns of at home notices specifying the hours during which visitors would be receiv ed a succession of open houses and punch bowls sometimes min imized the courtesy accorded to hostesses receptions were of ten crashed by bibulous stran gers hence the publicly an nounced open house custom has fallen into decline and new years calls now being exchang ed only by intimates the was sail bowl goes round in private legislature will sit in
