I asked. "Or does he come with backup?"<br /><br />Oscar's English was close to perfect, but he seemed thrown by a <br />term normally reserved for police reinforcement.<br /><br />"Helpers," I said. "Does he have any elves?"<br /><br />Maybe I'm just overly sensitive, but I couldn't help but feel <br />personally insulted when Oscar denounced the very idea as grotesque<br />and unrealistic. "Elves," he said. "They're just so silly."<br /><br />The words silly and unrealistic were redefined when I learned that<br />Saint Nicholas travels with what was consistently described as "six<br />to eight black men." I asked several Dutch people to narrow it <br />down, but none of them could give me an exact number. It was always<br />"six to eight," which seems strange, seeing as they've had hundreds<br />of years to get a decent count.<br /><br />The six to eight black men were characterized as personal slaves <br />until the mid-fifties, when the political climate changed and it <br />was decided that instead of being slaves they were just good <br />friends. I think history has proven that something usually comes<br />between slavery and friendship, a period of time marked not by <br />cookies and quiet times beside the fire but by bloodshed and <br />mutual hostility. They have such violence in Holland, but rather<br />than duking it out among themselves, Santa and his former slaves<br />decided to take it out on the public. In the early years, if a<br />child was naughty, Saint Nicholas and the six to eight black men<br />would beat him with what Oscar described as "the small branch of<br />a tree."<div
