good strikes we're made in the deep
sand formation, one by Pennsylyan-
ia people doing fifteen barrels, and
another by local concern doing

of the gas belt is also creating some
interest. The Wolfe County Oil &

While the cost OF bringing in" a

formation in the lower fields, the
deeper the sand the more perma-

CHRISTMAS TREES.
From Time Irnmen,oriaI Part of the
Holiday Celebration.

From gime immcmorial tree has
been a part of the Christmas celebra-
uon. Ii may be seen outside the tradi-
uonal managers in the missals and early
paintings OF the preraphaelite Italian
school. In the tree or near it are seen
angels in flowing robes singing out of

The correct German Christmas tree
always has an angel or Christkind ON
the topmost branch. with a tinsel star
at the end of staff. like pantomime
fairy, and If the tree belongs to a very
orthodox family there is usually at its
foot small toy group representing the
Saviour's birth in the stable at Bethle-
hem.
The lights on the tree are said to be
OF Jewish origin. In the ninth month
Of the Jewish year, corresponding near
ly to our December, and on the TWEEN
ty-fifth day. the Jews celebrated the
feast of dedication of their temple Ii
had been desecrated on that day by
Antiochus. 1t was dedicated by Ju-
uts MaectDeuS, ana tnen. according TO
the Jewish legend. sufficient oil was
found in the temple to last for the
seven branched candlestick for seven
days. and 1t would have taken seven
days to prepare new oil. Accordingly
the Jews were wont on .he 25th of Kis-
leu in every house to light n candle. ON
the next day two. and SO on till on the
seventh and last day of the feast seven
candles twinkled in every house.
1t is not easy to fix the exact date OF
the Nativity. but it fell most probably
on the last day of Kisleu. when every
Jewish house in Bethlehem aud Jeru-
salem was twinkling with lights. 1t is
worthy of notice that the German name
for Christmas is weihnacht Ohe night
of dedication,, as though 1t We're asso-
ciated with this feast. The Greeks al
so call Christmas the feast of lights.
and, indeed. this was also the name
given to the dedication festival, cha
