Kern Baby 1902
One of the customs of the festival of Ceres, observed in the northern part of Northumberland at the close of the reaping not the ingathering. Immediately the sickle was laid down and the last sheaf set on the end the men shouted that they had " got the kern". Then a curious image was produced, an imae dressed in a white frock with coloured ribbons and crowned with corn ears, stuck on a pole and held aloft by the strongest man of the party while the rest circled round it.
