new ADDITION OF TOWN
LOTS PROPOSED.
A Big Step In The Right
Direction.

We have been reliably infor.
med that NJ. p. Bailey has
bought half interest in the B.
l.. Quarles section of bottom
land in the eastern part of town,
consisting of several acres, and
have staked it off into seven
large building lots, which will
be offered for sale at once,
Each lot has a 80 foot front
and all the room that is necessa-
ry for garden, barn and other
out houses. Prices of these lots,
we are told, will be very reason
able and on easy terms. So, if
you are in the market for a an
ideal location in Gainesboro
this is an opening for you right
in the prettiest spot in the town
We can't immagine anything
that would be of more important
to the welfare of the town than
the selling of these lots. Its
a big step in the right direction,
and one that should have been
taken years ago. The town can't
grow unless something of this
nature takes place, so lets get
behind these gentlemen and
lend all the assistance we can.
Tell your friends about it. Ev-
e y citizen of the town should be
interested.

Tells Citizens How 10 Not
Observe Christmas.
Yuby Dam, U. S. A.

We are now wading into the
begging edge of Christmas. fixing
to celebrate the birth of that
man of Galilee, whom they
hanged upon a tree, for our re.
demption.
You have not at all times cele.
brated His advent into this world
in an appropriate manner. This
day should be celebrated in a
sober, charitable way. In pray
er and meditation. So. let me
admonish you not to be found
this time staggering around
with that Bacchanalian crowd of
noisy jewellers, swallowing down
lace coffees, eggnogs. ginger
stews and cocktails and soaking
your unholy bodies with the
various varieties of bewitching
toddies.
Neither are you supposed to
step around in this lopsideG
world among Gods poor with
your sock full of goodies and
your craw full of sugar plums
and never drop a crumb.
Remember. while you are sit
ting snug and warm, with your
plaid linsey on, safe from the
chills of the storm, that your
neighbor has long since come to
the patch His clothes very near
vanished and gone and icy-foot-
ed chills galloping up and down
his backbone. DO not forget
that you are in very large
measure your brothers. keeper,
and that the Big Eye" is ever
watching your modus operandi,
and if you don't step circumspect
the fur will fly by and by.
You have stood too long with
your slot-machine- hand by the
side of your fellowman.
So now hoping you will divide
up, | will dry up"

CHRISTMAS BAN IN l643
Yuletide Observance Was Not Per.
mitted by Edict Of "Roundhead
Parliament" in England.

SAN THE northern part Of
e Europe the ancient people
kindled great fires to their
NJ gods, 0dln and Thor, and
sacrifices of men and cattle
were made. The ancient GOths and
Saxons termed this festival or feast
"Yule," and we still use the word
"Yuletide" In our day. Among the
TeutOns this holiday season was cele-
brated by decorating giant fir trees
The decorations consisted of lights,
nuts, balls, golden apples and animals.
These were to symbolic flashes of
lightning, MOON stars and sun, while
the animals represented sacrifices.
Christmas was not among the early
festivals of the church. We find the
first evidence Of the feast from Egypt,
according to the historians Of the
church, and December % was not the
day on which 1t was universally cele-
brated. 1t was not until the Fourth
or Fifth centuries that the celebration
of the festival on this day spread to
the East. The Nativity was cele-
brated December % at Rome before
354, and at ConstantinOple, not prior
to $40.
As paganism began to be supplanted
by Christianity, many of the old Gus
toms were taken and handed down
through the generations. In the Anglo
Saxon days of King Alfred the hOli-
day season began December 10 and
closed January 6. When Puritanism
arose in England the fate of Christ
mas was threatened for a time, and
even extended to this country, since
the Puritans brought along with them
to New England feeling against the
celebration of Christmas.
In 1913 the 'Roundhead parlia-
ment' in England put a ban on the
observance of Christmas. The court
of Massachusetts In 1853 followed
England's example and Christmas was
put under ban there. With the
restoration of the English royalty the
restoration of Christmas was brought
about, and Massachusetts again fol-
lowed England's example and in 1881
the ban was lifted. From this time
on Christmas has remained, and is
now celebrated throughout the entire
civilized world.

Russia's Christmas Comes Late.

In Russia Christmas occurs 10 days
after our own. Perhaps one of the
most interesting customs of the season
Is the Russian Christmas feast, for
old and young alike, for which they
dress themselves In various masquerad-
ing costumes and visit house after
house, accepting the hospitality Of
their neighbors. The Christmas sea-
son is also notable for the fact that
the young girls try to find out whether
they will be married during the ensu-
ing year or not. Some of them at
twelve O'Clock on Christmas Eve, Sc
cretly go out into the street and ask
the first man they meet what his name
is. Whatever name he gives will be
that borne by their future husbands
such is the belief. Some of the girls
are very much disappointed when the
name is not a nice one, or when the
man, as he will sometimes, calls him
self Satan or something similar.
