St. Patrick Day was March 17; he's the patron of Ireland and all the Irish. Almost the whole world celebrated the Irish that day. Today is St. Joseph Day, patron of all Italians. Again, almost everyone will be celebratory Italians. February 17 was St. Vitus Day. He's the patron of Slovenia and all the Slovenes. The little woman, a Slovene herself, wrapped her hair in a kerchief, picked a few flowers from the yard, danced three or four turns in a circle, and reentered the house. That was it. Nobody cares. Poor Slovenes.
