CREST HARDWARE Famous People Call Yule Their Birthday YULE Their Birthday A young farmer's wife in Erg- land gave birth to a son in 1642. In 1821, a baby girl was born in Massachusetts village of Oxford. In 1865, the wife of a militant Christian crusader gave birth to her fourth daughter. And in 1883, in Paris, an artist's model bore a baby boy. What did these four births have in common? In each case, the child was born on Christ- mas day, and grew up to become a famous person. According to Book of Knowledge, these well- known "Christmas babies" were Clara Barton, Evangeline Booth, Maurice Utrillo and Sir Isaac Newton. FOUNDER OF RED CROSS Clara Barton, Civil War nurse, was born on Christmas Day in 1821. It was her warm thoughts of Christmas that led her, when she set off to visit her brother, a prisoner during the Civil War, to offer to take presents not only to him but to the prisoner relatives of all her Oxford, Mass., neighbours. Subsequently, Clara Barton was instrumental in founding the American Red Cross and served as its president for many years. IN SALVATION ARMY Born on Christmas Day in 1865, Evangeline Booth was the fourth daughter of the Salvation Army founder, William Booth. By the age of 23, she was head of the Salvation Army in London and in 1904 she took over op- erations for the entire United States. oo During World War I. the Salvation Army lassies under her jurisdiction spent Christ- mas -- as well as many other days -- ministering to the needs of American doughboys in France. The word "dough- Salvation Army doughnut, a boy" stems from the celebrated World War 1. staple. KNOWN FOR PAINTINGS One Christmas-born child had little cheer in his life, on holi- days or otherwise. This was the French painter, Maurice Utrillo, born on December 25, 1883, Son of an unknown father and a mother who was a model for many of the Montmarte brush wielders of her time, young Maurice was shy and withdrawn not only in childhood but throughout his life. Ironically, reproductions of many of his paintings, partic- ularly those of the sparkling white dome of the Montmartre Church of Sacre Coeur, are used by the thousands every year on Christmas cards. HE INVENTED TOYS Sir Isaac Newton, English phycist, mathematician, philos- opher greeted his first Christ- mas, and his first day, in Lin- colnshire, England, in 1642, Frail and sickly as a youth, he devoted many boyhood Dec- embers to inventing and making Christmas toys.
