the acorn is found as a Christmas
symbol on some Christmas greetings,
although it is not used as much as
formerly.
Druidism considered mistletoe most
sacred, and when growing on. an oak
tree. parasite as it is, it was cut with
a golden knife BY priest clad in a
white robe and two white bulls were

CHRISTMAS CAROL
Music and Song Always Associ-,
ated With the Yuletde.
Original Sacred Character of Carols
Was Almost Lost Sight of in
Thirteenth Century.

nfN USIC and song have always been
STU associated with Christmas.
In Roman Catholic countries
as early as the Third century, it be-
came the custom to usher in the
Christmas festivities with musical
masses.
The practice of singing carols or
canticles was supposed to recall the
"In Excelsis Gloria" of the angels and
the song of the shepherds on the
first Christmas night
A very old carol, published in 1921,
gives an amusing description of church
revelries:
A wooden child in clouts on the altar sat,
About the which both boys and girls do
dance and timely jet,
And carols sing in praise of Christ.
The priests do roar aloud!
And round about the parents stand
To see the sport and with their voice
Do help them, and with hand.
At first, carols were generally re-
ligious in character, and We're written
with Latin and English words in al
ternate lines, or with Latin refrain
The well-known carol
When Christ was born of Mary free
In Bethlehem, that fair cite,
Angels sang with mirth and glee
In Excelsis Gloria.
and another with a chorus,
Christus natus hodie
The babe, the son,
The holy one
OF Mary,
are good examples of this class.
When the tendency to ribaldry be-
came marked, some of the carols got
to be very peculiar in subject and.
language. Joseph is treated with
great want of respect, for one carol
runs:
Joseph was an old man,
An old man was he,
When he welded Mary,
The Maid of Galilee.
Another relates the story of the
shepherds watching their 1ocks by
night:
A shepard upon a hill he satt
He had on him hys tabard and HAITI,
Hys tarbox, hys pipe and hys nagatt;
Hys name was called Joly-Joly Watt
Having been Informed Of the birth
of Christ, the shepherd sets off for
Bethlehem, and on arriving, says:
Jhesu! I off Thee my pype,
My skyrte, my tarboX and my scrype
Home to my fellows now will skype,
And loke unto my shepe.
