Use of “Xmas”
Poor Taste Say
N. Y: Clergymen
NEW i’UliK-—Tho abbruiatiou ot
the word Christmas to "Xmas"
meeting this year the opposition of
clergyman who see irreverence in
such shortening oi the word. Mark
0. Prentiss o! 212 West Eleventh
ll
Street. in talking with a tew'clergy- .
men found objection to this abbre-
viation and sent a. questionnaire lo
olergymen and religious publications
\nd organisations to ascertain tin-u
attitude.
"1 tound that awrybody I talked
to with one exception thought it was
in poor taste. men it it was not irr-.-\ -
erent." said Mr. l'rcntiss. “The
exception “as a writer who point-’21
out that the ‘x' in Xmas was an ab-
brei‘intlon ot the Greek word for
Christ. an abbreviation in commo‘.
use. particularly among lonian
i‘atholic priests. who use it in sign-
ing their letters occasionally. Per-
sonaliy.l hold no objection against
the shorter form. but the opposition
seemed to be so great that I dratt-
ed a. resolution asking that it he not
used and sent it to religious organi-
zatlone and church councils which
are adopting it." _
Mr. l‘rentias said the IlibTO\ll-
tlon seemed to be cdming into more
common use in recent years. being
used in the news columns or news-
papers as well as in advertising. and
that possibly it. lessened the sacrei
significance of the time which
Christmas commemorates. Neariy
twenty years ago. he said. the issue
came up in Chicago when hlarsh'iil
l-‘ield & (to. raised objection to the
use of the abbreviation.
