womans usefulness and influence
have been enlarged.
NO man who drinks intoxicating
liquors can today find employment
with any railway, steamship or ex-
press company, or any of the great
business concerns of the country. This
was not the case even within the
memory of men whose heads are not
yet tinged with gray, and is a great
factor in the spread of sobriety and
temperance.
Along religious lines we are grow
ing better, broader and more tolerant.
In a word, the world is growing
better every day, and the Ocala Daily
Banner hopes that it may shed some
ray of light that will help make the
whole more effulgent.
Say what we may about the good
old days, this paper believes we are
today in the golden era of the ages,
and with so may examples Of benev-
olence. and philanthropic movements
on foot, and the frequent annouce-
ment of so many and useful inventions
and discoveries. il believes that the
ugly and brutal things that mar and
disfigure our civilization are rapidly
and will soon entirely disappear.
Small in size, the Ocala Daily Ban
ner will be big in thought and purpose
and like TIE early and latter rains it
shall endeayor to pour its blessings
and pronounce its benedictions upon
the just and the unjust, its friends
and its foes alike"

LEGENDS OF CHRISTMAS
German Folklore Connects Evergreen
and Garden of Eden

In Germany there is legend that
when Eve plucked the fatal apple the
leaves shriveled, the tree changed its
nature and became evergreen, bearing
witness in all seasons to the fall OF
man. Oily once year, on the birthday
of the Redeemer it blooms with light,
and is laden with gifts of love, and
so we have the Christmas tree.
In the black forest region of Ger
many there is a tradition that on
each Christmas eve the savior comes
to the earth in the guise of poor
boy and asks aims at the house doors.
On that day no beggar is refused
food and shelter.
1t is said that the popular tradition
of the entrance of Santa Claus by
means of the chimney arose from the
story of Hertha, a goddess OF the
Morse mythology. When the festival in
her honor was celebrated an altar OF
stones was erected in the house, and
fir branches were piled upon it and
set on fire Through the dense smoke
made by the green wood the goddess
was supposed to descend and extend
her flnfuence according to the peti-

yesterday if dampness had not caus-
ed a postponement of the Tiger-Sox
contest. A break in the schedule to-
day gives the South Siders a rest and
tomorrow Weaver will be well enough
to get back into the game against the
st. Louis Browns on the home lot.
Three games will be played with
the Browns, including double-head-
er Saturday. Then Cleveland drops in
for a single combat and the Sox go
east to meet the seaboard teams.
Claude Hendrix got another day of
rest before going against the Indian
apolis crew, rain preventing the
game. Manager Tinker likes his ath-
letes to get day off now and then,
but he was not pleased that the first
game was postponed. He figured on
using Hendrix yesterday, and, as to-
morrow was to have been open,
Claude would have been able to come
back for one of the contests Saturday.

was formerly in the circuit, but
couldn't support the team.
