Tracing the Christmas Tree
Back to Ancient Mythology

TIME tree. brilliant with candles and
tinsel and bending under it's load of
gifts, has become SO indispensable n
part of our Christmas that we can hardly
imagine celebration of the festival without
it, We think of it as an immemorial institu-
ton, and it is very ancient. Throughout
Europe it has been popular since the middle
ages at the very least while learned men
disagree as to whether it's real origin should
he traced to Ygdrasil. the tree OF life in
Scandinavian mythology. or to one of the
customs of the old Roman harvest festival,
the Saturnalia.
But among English speaking peoples II
has been so recently introduced that 1t may
almost be called an innovation upon the his
toric Christmas. In England itself 1t was
almost unknown before the middle of tho
last century. although English travellers had
seen the pretty custom in European house
holds and written much in praise Of It. To
America IL came earlier. brought by German
immigrants to Pennsylvania. and perhaps
also by the Dutch settlers Of New York.

where the Christmas trees they have known
came from.
But to supply the great city markets there
is need of an industry pretty we'll organized
This industry centres in two regions. one in
northern New England, and particularly In
northern Maine. and the other among the
forests of upper Michigan and Wisconsin.
From the former come the trees which are

other Eastern cities; from the latter those

the woodsman's income.

If Communists Start Revolution

To Set UP King in Bavaria

Let the Bavarian separatists try to pro-

north of the Danube would promptly rejoin

Even the monarchsts balance each other
off. They are divided in two camps, the
Wittelsbachers and Hohenzolernites. and
cooperation between them on the basis of the
old monarchy. which supported crowns in
both families. is out of the question. The
Wittelsbachers will not hear of another ex-
pertinent with Hohenzollern empire and
the Protestant, pam n-German Hohenzollernites
would never tolerate an empire with
Bavarian and Catholic ruler. Numerically
the Wittelsbachers are predominant, but
their royalist sentiments have a correspond

Escherich could control his hundreds of

The Communist "Putsch" is the accepted

off for the moment. Separatism would be
more popular if it did not imply cooperation
with Marshal Foch. Bavarians have two
ntipathes-Prussia and France And be-
tween the two. Bavarian policy has to keep
to the middle of the road and be content to
seek greater autonomy within the empire
A Bavarian statesman against whom a
charge of treason in the interest of France
could be proved would be pilloried.
Besides, the significance of the French
Legation in Munich and the alleged sepa-
ratist conspirings of Monsieur Dard have
been grossly distorted. NJ Dard can only
weakly influence Bavarian political thought.
and he knows this we'll enough. The enor-
nous sums supposedly spent In propaganda
simply have not been seen in Bavaria. 1t
would require years to convert the country.
and with years and special privileges and
all the guiles of politics it yet might not be
possible.
Practically all the ardent separatists Of
Bavaria are confined to the southern high
lands. where there Is little agriculture and
less industry and where the principal wealth
seems to be an intransigeant anti-Prussian
passion. But north of the Danube the
Bnvarians are fairly dispassionate and are
loyal Germans both in the rich farm dis
tricts of the Pfalz and in the factory towns
with their agricultural hinterland, and in
these two regions II is that the real riches
OF Bavaria are concentrated. The peasants

political hypochondracs like their highland
compatriots. The factory districts are bound
by the laws OF industry and by national labor
solidarity to remain with north Germany.
They need Silesian and Ruhr coal, they need
materials and as exporters they belong to
the German industrial unit.

On Tuesday night, Dec. 21st,
Hollister was the scene of q
great celebration. On that
night Santa Claus met over 200
little folks in the school house
and showered them with candy,
raisins, apples, oranges and
gifts.
The pupils tried to show their
appreciation of Santa Claus
efforts by preparing a Christmas
program in his honor. A strik-
ing feature of the program was
a Christmas operetta given by
children of the third, fourth and
fifth grades. Community sing.
ing was enjoyed by all, this was
ably lead by Mr.. John M. Gibbs.
1t was indeed a heart stirring
sight when the whole company
of over 400 joined in singing the
old Christmas Carols.
After Santa Claus had finished
with the children Mr.. Gibbs
sprung a delightful surprise on
the teachers by giving each a
handsome present from the
company.

true indication of the Christmas
spirit that prevails in our town.
