WILL CONSTRUCT MANY MILES
 OF TRAILS WITH FEDERAL AID

Between 5000 and 10000 miles of the marked trails which now criss- cross the country from east to west and north to south are to be con- structed by Federal aid. This amount is composed of S55 projects, which form links in one of the other of the "A marked trails which have been laid out by private associations.
 Every automobilist is familiar with the Dixie Highway, the Mohawk Trail the Roosevelt Highway, and a score of other marked trails, which are so well built and maintained that driving on them is joy and comfort. To as sist in building these highways a Fed eral fund of $64, ,533,019 has been ap- proved by the Bureau of Public Roads of the United States Department of Agriculture up to September 30, 1920.
 These trails do not constitute an en- tirely satisfactory system of trans continental roads, as officials of the department say their selection in many cases has been influenced too much by such factors as preexisting conditions, promises of improvement by local communities, pressure of self ish influence, and desire to touch points of scenic and historical inter- est.
 The extent to which Federal aid has been applied to the trails varies in the
The Carlisle independent., 1920-12-16

different states. Naturally the West ern States are using much more of their Federal apportionments in de- veloping roads of this character than the Eastern States. This is due to the fact that tic trails in the Eastern States had already been improved to large extent before the roads were selected by the pathfnders. This was not true in the West, where long stretches of the selected roads were still in an unimproved condition when they were designated.
 Nevada leads in it's use of Federal funds on roads of this character. Eighty three per cent of it's entire mileage of approved Federal aid roads lies on one or the other of the trails which cross the States. On these roads Nevada will spend 90 per cent of the Federal money which has been granted to her.

The Christmas Season.

Though Christmas seems to gain rather than lose in popular favor as the years roll by, yet 1t is worthy of note that the Christmas season has been much curtailed from what Il originally was. For several centuries 1t began with the eve of All Saints day or "Hallow eve." October 31. and continued until Candlemas day. Feb ruary 2. In England it is now com puted only from Christmas eve tc Twelfth night" January 6. while ir our own country 1t begins on Christ mas eve and practically ends or Christmas night Yet even now if real ly begins on December 16. marked ir the church calendar. 70 Sapientia, from the name of an anthem suni during Advent

Games of Heather Origin

NE ANY of our most famil-
 MI jar Christmas games have a heather originfi and some of their requirements once played most important part in the heather rites and mysteries. Ev- cry one knows how, when play ing the popular Christmas game of snap dragon" all other lights in the room are eXtinguished while we try to snatch raisins from blazing brandy, but prob ably few are aware that the ancient British Druids were ac- customed to worship, in a tenn pie otherwise dark, a flame of burning spirits into which they cast and out of which they plucked certain sacred objects, and that they thus performed some of the most awful solem- mites of their religion.

The Old Age of Santa Claus.


 In Anna Farquhar's "Convictions" in The National Magazine. she says: "Santa Claus totters under his pack, wearing a long, old face these days. Probably in his youth he had no idea of growing old or departing this life; therefore when his enthusiasm and joyousness began to wane unaccount- ably, he must have opined that the world was tottering-not his own gen. erous throne of life. Nowadays he creeps down the chimney stealthily as If somewhat ashamed of his mission. like polar burglar. and his eight tiny reindeer make small chatter on the lawn, for many of their joy bells have been lost. When Santa lays a finger aside of his nose refiectively in our times, he exclaims. without bit of jolly shake below the waist: Degen- crates! Degenerates! Has my world come to such pass that people wish to pay me for my presents? Can 1t be that little children are so surfeited with toys that tEey stop to ask how much they cost before accepting them. There was little Willie, last year, who said to his mamma, when he first saw a beautiful woolly dog, What's it got inside? Candy or money? Don't want a dog 'nless it's got somethin' in- side i"'"

WHEN CHRISTMAS WAS YOUNG
To Understand Mysteries of the YuIs. tide, 1t is Necessary to Search
 Ancient History.

XII TIN the midst of the rush and sSAq ~ excitement of Christmas SNILLH preparations certain ques- kSiVf.S tions will flash across the
 mind, and we find ourselves wondering why it is that we do the very same things Christmas after Christmas. Why do we hang stock ings, light Christmas trees, trim our homes and have plum pudding?
 To understand the origin of these customs we must wander far back into the forgotten past-ages before Julius Caesar set foot on British soil, CT St. Augustine told the story of the Cross to the men of Kent. Hundreds of years ago-lOng before the year the ancients, as we call the people of those times, all worshiped the sun the great giver of light and life. In the month of March they built big fires to it, asking it to shine upon the seeds they had planted and warm them into life. In the autumn they held another festival, thanking the sun for the harvest, and again. in the winter time, they held the greatest festival of all to celebrate the coming of the springtime.
 In ancient Egypt. in Assyria. in Greece, on Roman soil and in the northlands these festivals were cele- brated year after year and always about the same time, the winter one being held about New Years time
 Wherever the Roman eagle was found, this feast was called the Sat urnalia and 1t was marked by uniyer- sal license and good feeling.
 All at once Christianity appeared upon the scene. As the policy of the early church was to reconcile heather converts to the new faith by adopting some of the heather customs and fes- tivafs, the new religion accepted and retained many, and the result. as is easily seen. has been the strange medley of pagan and Christian rites which swe use at Christmas time to- day.
 After Britain was Christianzed by the Romans. the Saxons and northern tribes came, bringing their old north ern rites, and as Christianity at last replaced organism the Christians kept the old pagan rites, merely changing their meaning
 For many years no two lands cele- brated the same day as the birthday of Christ They did not know the exact day, and we do not know it; but this date has now become the most important one in the worlds history.

About the MistIetoe

~ OLES. in his Art of M Simpling" observes, If one hang mistletoe about the neck the witches can have no power of him" Some lingering superstition remains in the present day, and in many houses a bunch of the mistletoe is sus- pended from the ceiling, under which the male part of the as- sembly have the privilege of taking the ladies and saluting them. At the same time they should wish them a happy new year and present them with one of the berries for good luck. Tn other places people try by lots by the cracking of the leaves and berries in the fire.

John Van Dyke, died Monday afternoon

Shimmey Shakers
Are Given Warning
Diocese Issues UItimatum Against the
New Dances in San Juan as Be-
ing Immodest and Degrading.

San Juan-Present styles of dress
and the newer dances are severely
criticized as immodest and degrading
by the Rt. Rev. William A. Jones, bis
shop of the Roman Catholic diocese
Of Porto Rico, who has issued warn
ing to priests and Pensioners agaist
their demoralizing influences.
Certain of the modern dances are
'mockery to shame and in reality are
nothing more than bait to sensual
ty," in the opinion of the bishop, while
the style of the day in women's
dresses, he warns, should not be used
to exhibit nakedness."
Priests are advised that they may
not organize dances for church bene-
fits, according to instruction from the
Pope, while they may not attend festi-
walls organized by lay members of their
congregations where dancing is in
dulged in.
The bishop gives his views on dress
and dancing in an ecclesiastical letter
addressed to both priests and members
of the church in this diocese and pub
lished in the official church bulletin.

Swedes Having
Labor Troubles

Stockholm-A government committee
which has Investigated the operation
of the eight-hour law enacted by the
Liberal Socialist Eden government, has
just recommended that the law be sus-
pended and revised. 1t advocates that
the length of the working day should
be made dependent upon a mutual agree
ment between employers and employees
and that some provision be made for
longer working hours under certain
circumstances.
The committee was unanimous in
finding that the expectation that the
measure would encourage industry on
the part of the workers has not been
realized. 1t reports that in no single
line of work have the employees shown
any greater efficiency or energy, that
there has been considerable decline
in production. 1t says that several big
plants are on the verge of closing down
because they can not be made to earn
profits owing to heavy charges for
increased housing facilities for work
ers, higher payrolls and the high cost
of machinery
The committees Investigation cover
ed period of eight months. Under the
law heavy fines on employers were au-
thorized for infringement and councils
of employers, employees and govern
ment representatives were established
to consider any departure from the
eight hour working day established
under the law.
