Christmas Customs.

Many countries claim that they have
given the Christmas tree to the world.
hut its early days are So hidden in an.
tiqu.ty that II II difficult to say posi-
lively how 1t came to be. In the days
of the early people of Europe trees
were associated with their various ob
servanceS. The pine tree wis espe
ciaIIy revered and during the winter
1t WAS the custom Of the northmen to
hang gifts upon that tree for their
gods. When Christianity descended
upon these heather people the idea Of
gifts was translated into a custom
where offerings were made instead to
the Christian God
Gift giving at ChriStmaStide had
this early origin and since the earl!
part OF the nineteenth century the
Christmas tree AMI the spirit ut Christ
mas have been iIi>t'lmrahit and viii he

Among the strategists of the kaiser's
army none stands higher in the estima
ton Of the general staff than General
Josiah Won Heeringen. He received
his training under old General Won
Moltke, hero of the Franco Prussian
war. in which Won Heeringen served

great similarity between the two
warriors. The aquiine features tall.
thin. dried up body and the taciturn
disposition Of the late Won Moltke find
their counterpart in General Won Hee
ringen. although he wears a beard.
In their hobbies. too. the similarity
is striking. Motke was an incesSant
chess player. while Heeringen devotes
his spare time to playing with leaden
soldiers. In military circles Hecringen
is looked upon with the same respect
and accredited with as much strntegi
cal skill as was Moltke. 1t is said of
Heeringen that no other soldier in the
German empire knows 50 much about
the strategical position of Metz. the
most important base and military post

years studying the fortiiication and its
surrounding territory. Every foot of
