ORIGIN OF CHRISTMAS TREE

The Christmas tree is supposed by
great numbers of people to have orig
mated in Germany, but from a reli-
able source We learn that the Christ
mas tree came in the first instance
from Egypt, and its origin dates from
period much earlier than the Chris.
tian era. The palm tree is known to
put forth branch every month and
a spray of this tree with II shoots
on it was used in Egypt at the time
of the winter solstice as symbol OF
The complete year.
