Strange Origin of Christmas Tree.

Virgin Oh christmas Tree.
Most of us know that the Christmas
tree comes to us direct from Germany.
Ana we know of the tree worship of the
Druids which obtained in England and
France, and which probably had some in
huence on the later use of the tree in the
Christian festival. But we do not ell
know that similar festival with the tree
as a crowning feature is observed among
many heather nations, and that II comes
from sun worship, which Is older than his
tory. The revival of the sun after the
winter solstice has ever been the subject
of rejoicing and of celebration By cere-
monies which represent the new light
brought back to the world. Our tree,
with its small candles, it's gilded knick-
nacks and toys for the children. IL a di-
rect descendant of this old festival IN
