TIE OLDEST" CHRISTMAS CUSTOM

that each one who received it might
receive divine blessings, Of which it
was the symbol. Having received
the sprays. the people hung them
above the doors to propitiate the
gods during the year.
The only remainir g significance at
tachtd today to the mistletoe is the
idea that If a maiden is not kissed
Il der it on Christmas day she will
go unwed throughout the year. This
idea goes so far back into the past
that one cannot trace it.
1t is because the mistletoe is rare
and not easy to get that we found
and brought forward the holly. which
though lovely, is used only as a SUBJ
stitute for the mistletoe. New York

Perhaps the very oldest Of all
Chri'mas customs is that of decorat
ing our houses, churches and our
streets with evergreens. At the
very dawn of history began the wor-
ship Of the trees. or forest worship,
and the groves we're mans first tenn
pies.
All our instincts, our passion about
nature, are forest memories, for
forest worship was universal.
In later times to each god some
tree was dedicated: Apollo had the
Laurel, Jupiter the oak, and Greece
for ages had its sacred groves.
The forest worshipers could not
worship without giving. because to
worship is to give. and these bou2hs
and garlands were the oldest gifts
Of man. Before he had learned to
SHAPE offerings of his own rude skill
he could bring to the sacred trees
and hang up on them the first flow
ers and greenery of spring and the
perfect fruits of autumn.
These gifts, remember. were
never, as with US, decorations; they
were sacrifices.
The Romans. with a fine eye for
beauty. used to garland their TEN.
pies and homes and gathering places
and even the big coliseum with
1-boughs of green and ropes of flow
ers. This particular custom was re-
ceived by the Christians with a spe-
cial sort Of approval, recalling as il
did, the fact that our Lord entered
Jerusalem amid the strewn branches
of the multitude.
We must not forget the welcome
and lovely m'stletoe and holly. In.
deed Christmas without them would
not. with us, seem quite complete.
| Mistletoe was for ages regarded al
sacred by the British pagans-th'
Druids Island was surrounded will
great mystery and sentiment littlt
understood by US.
1t was supposed to possess healing
powers and that it could ward of
evil spirits. The reverence paid tc
this little parasite seems to have
been restricted to it, only. when il
was found growing on the sacred
oak trees in the Druids' groves.
Once every year the Druid high
priest cutit with a golden sickle,
blessed it and distributed the sprays
am ng the people, praying aloud

There is little doubt that one of the
most oppressive, injurious, detestable
forces in the world is the force of con-
xentionality. that instinct which
makes men Judge character and an ac-
tion, not by its beauty or its mer-
its. but by comparing it with the
Standard Of how the normal man
would regard it. This vast and in
tolerable medium OF dullness. which
penetrates our lives like a thick. dark
mist. allowing US only to see the OBJ,

hostile to all originality crushingly
respectable. that dictates our homes,
our occupations. our amusements, our
emotions. our religion. Is the most
ruthless and tyraRnical thing in the

ID. Tittmann, the former. district at

u L.: Under our state constitu lpl can
officers elected or appointed after the

IN on December cath but did not file
his bond until December 30ti,. The
state auditor paid Mr.. Tittmana I'M
Ill December 3fth and paid Mr.. owen
for the balance OF the month. Mr..
owen claims that the constitut. IN
only requires officers TO take oath 20
office and says nothing about giving

90. the compact with the United
States says that officers elected at the

and give bond as required by the con-
stitution or By the laws of the terri
tory OF New Mexico. IL is Mr. Owens
contention that To require bond OF
other officers would be In conflict with
the constitution, and that therefore he
took Office on December gath when he
was sworn In. and Is entitled To pay
from that day. IL this contention Ia
correct Il will be necessary TO amend

t%reasurers can be placed under bond
IL they are elected or appointed TO AL

could take office without giving bond,
and Mr.. Tittmann maintains that the
last sentence of the same section pro-
vides against such u condition of al
fairs by saying: but the legislature
may by law require such officers &c
give other or additional bonds rs
