HIM. To tell the truth if want to be con-
sistently Christian in our Christmas green's and
the purposes to which they should be put, there
isn't anything about it, at least of any records
which such careful investigators as Alfred E. P.
Raymond Bowling have dug up while studying
the general subject. None will deny that the
most consistent Christians have taken to the
mistletoe kiss with abundant enthusiasm and a
faith in It's excellent results that has never been
surpassed But that doesn't make the mistletoe
kiss any Christian than it
Isn't the excellent story of foolish Mother Eve
and the original mistletoe apple enough for any
reasonable Christmas decorator who wants to
justify it's employment? And if it isn't haven t
the legend of the Rod of Jesse to make it
distinctly one of the Christmas greens? AS for
the kisses that are supposed to go with it-we
if you insist knowing about them, you'll
simply have to take the consequences, same
Eve did when she insisted on tasting Of
that COMPOUNDED tree of knowledge
The mistletoe kiss not to be Chris
tan at all Druidical, probably, and therefore
heathensh, and therefore very, very wrong.
So all young men who encounter it, artfully
suspended where pair of ripe, red lips must
pass, do you piously refrain or, more piously.
tear down the hoary old temptation and fee
the accursed roof if 1t the house of
ARIA Marcea and you were not Gautiers
young Frenchman. And you, maidens, give
leave to pagan rites; remember the fate Of
your poor Grandmother Eve and beware lest
the fruit of the mistetoe, accursed tree OF
knowledge prove more bitter in the mouth
than it did in Eden.
But If you have ivy, wreathe it generously for
the French know it the herb of st. John, the
disciple whom the Savior loved the emblem Of
pure friendship, the vine that heeds not decay
and death of it's beloved but clings ever more
closely as the fall mpends and bears up it's fall
ing ally against all adversely. Learned students
of these legends have surmised, too, that it may
be the herb of st. John the Baptist who is usual
ly pictured the boy in his camel's-hair coat
gazing at his cousin, the infant Jesus.
