OLDEST CHRISTMAS CUSTOM
Streets With Evergreen Popular
Since Dawn Of History.

ERHAPS the very oldest of all
- Christmas customs is that Of
decorating our houses, churches
and streets with evergreens.
At the very dawn OF history began the
worship of the trees, or forest worship,
and the groves were mans first tenn
piles.
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 boughs
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 flowers and greenery
of spring and the perfect fruits of au-
tumn.
These gifts, remember. We're never.
as with US, decorations; they were sac
/ rifices.
| The Romans, with a fine eye for
beauty, used to garland their temples
and homes and gathering places and
even the big Coliseum with boughs of
/ green and ropes of flowers. This par
/ ticular custom was received by the
/ Christians with a special sort of ap-
| prevail, recalling, as 1t did, the fact
/ that our Lord entered Jerusalem amid
| the strewn branches of the multitude.
We must not forget the welcome and
lovely mistletoe and holly. Indeed,
| Christmas without them would not,
with us. seem quite complete.
Misuetoe was for ages regarded as
sacred by the old British pagans-the
| Druids-and was surrounded with
| great mystery and sentiment, little un-
derstood by us.
1t was supposed to possess healing
powers and that It could ward off evil
spirits. The reverence paid to this
little parasite seems to have been re-
stricted to IL, only, when 1t was found
] growing on the sacred oak trees in the
Druids' groves.
Once every year the Druid high
priest cut it with a golden sickle,
the
among the people, praying aloud that
each one who received 1t 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 remaining significance at
tached today to the mistletoe is the
idea that IL a maiden is not kissed
under IL on Christmas day she win go
unwed throughout the year. This idea
goes so far back into the past that one
cannot trace il.
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

A REPLY TO
IAN OBSERVER. Z"

From the last issue of the Cou.
rier, i read with much surprise
an article bearing the title Of
That Convention" over an an
noymous signature. This article
was intended for a criticism of the
method in which the Chairman OF
the Democratic Party of Fulton
County was elected at a conven-
ton held here last Monday. Such
might have been its intention,
but it appeared to me to be a
vicious attack" upon one man
Chairman johnson. Unneces-
sary, unfair and uncalled for In
the extreme.
This convention was called and
conducted as all county conven-
tions are conducted. As a mat
ter of fact, very few conventions
of this nature are according to
strict parliamentary rules. 1t
was the wishes of the majority
of the Committeeman that w. C..
johnson be elected to serve as
Chairman for the next four years
and the "OBSERVER" should
have had no voice in the cleo
ton unless he was a Committee
man.
There was no evidence that
this election, as well as the cleo
ton of precinct committeeman
was not regular and proper. No
pressure was brought to force the
various committeeman to vote,
other than as they saw fit.
This communication of the cob
server is the child of a distort-
ed imagination, with a grudge
against somebody or something.
1t also strikes me that a commu-
mcation worth printing is worth
signing, and though, not a. be-
never In anonymous things. 1 will

HOW TO PREPARE BETS.
Various Ways of Cooking This Season"
able Vegetable.

Here is a new dish that combines
two sometimes unattractive vegetables
In a most interesting manner. Cut
freshly boiled beets in two and hollow
out the halves. In this cavity place a
spoonful of creamed spinach and serve
hot. The same combination can also
be prepared as a salad. The spinach
in this case should not be creamed,
simply boiled and chopped and season
ed with a French dressing. and the
beets holding it should be set in white
lettuce leaves.
Cream of beet soup Is as unusual as
it is delicious. To make it chop we'll
cooked beets fine and simmer a cupful
Of them in pint of mutton stock for
fifteen minutes. Then rub them
through a sieve. Mix two teaspoon
fuls Of -four with two Of butter and
add to the mutton stock and beet
puree. Heat thoroughly, stirring con-
stantly, and add to a pint Of hot milk.
Season with salt and pepper and serve
hot.
A delicious relish is made of equal
parts of grated horseradish prepared
with vinegar and chopped boiled beets
mixed together.
Dreamed beets can be prepared in
this way: Slice boiled beets into a
saucepan and moisten with a little
clear stock. Beat the yolk of an egg
with a cupful of cream and slowly
add it to the beets. Stir carefully all
the time until the sauce is thick and
then serve Immediately.
BeetS la chartreuse are prepared
in this way: Cut boiled beets in quar-
ter inch slices and cut half as many
slices Of onion as there are beets. Put
slice Of onion between two slices Of
lightly with salt. pepper and little
vinegar. Dip each sandwich in fritter
batter and fry in deep fat. Drain on
brown paper and serve piping hot.
Small whole beets or slices Of larger
beets can be used to garnish salads and
cold meat dishes. They must, however,
be used somewhat sparingly. A little
beet goes long way. Small beet dice
ranged neatly about mold of veal
aspic, for instance, are good.
A good beet salad is this: Boil beets
and remove the tops. Allow one beet
for each person to be served. Stand
them on white lettuce leaves and hol-
low out the centers with a silver spoon.
Chop the whites of hard boiled eggs
and crumble the yolks. Mix the chop
ped whites, cold boiled or canned peas
and mayonnaise together and fill the
hollow beets. Garnish with the crum,
bled yolks.
