age extends far into the mists of an
tiquity and it's origin is difficult to
trace. Some say it is connected with
the legendary Tree Of Time, Ygdra-
sill, the great tree of Morse mythol-
ogy, within whose roots and branches
heaven and earth are bound. Some
say the custom may be traced to the
Egyptians who at the time of winter
solstice decorated their portals with
branches Of the date palm-the sym
bol Of life triumphant over death.
An ancient legend Of the Scandin-
avians relates how the Christmas tree
owes its origin to the "service-tree'
which sprang from soil once drenched
with the blood of two slain lovers
and how each night during the Christ

among its branches. To this legend
may perhaps be traced our custom of
Illuminating the tree when darkness
comes. Among the Greeks, Christ
mas is known as the feast of lights.
But the Christmas tree de luxe is
the balsam fir. Of little use for lum-
Der, it possesses ideal characteristics
for holiday purposes-beautifu and
symmetrical with long horizontal
branches and deep green foliage, each
tiny leaf and bud Of which sends out
breath of aromatic fragrance.

The annual cutting of million

the loss through forest fires which
each year sweeps over II million
acres causing a yearly wastage Of
about $4,000, 100000
But so far as disseminating the

Bandits Rob Lumber Camp.

Six masked bandits, bandishine
revolvers, made spectacular en-
trance into Weir's Camp Number
s on the Odanah Reservation at
night last week, and made off with
money, jewelry and watches.
While eight men were playing
cards in the camp, the hold-up
men came in through the windows
and doors, and four of them search
ed the men and the premises while
two stood on guard. They succeed
ed in bagging about $500 in cash,
three watches and some jewelry
and made their escape in the woods
in the direction of Mellen.
This is the second time that the
same group of bandits have invad-
ed a camp on the reservation, the
first time being two months ago.

Attorney General Defines a Bar.

In reply to the question what
IS standing bar or counter" the
attorney general in letter to the
district attorney of Ashland county,
gave the following opinion:
This provision is not as clear as
ii should be. 1t has been contend
ed by some that all bars should be
removed. However, as the statute
uses the term standing bar or
counter it seems to me that the
idea OF the lawmakers was to re-
move from the place where non
intoxicating liquors are sold the
standing bar ordinarily used in
saloons, at which parties consumed
liquor while standing at the bar or
counter. ! do not believe, how
ever, that it is necessary to remove
all counters, so long as the liquor
sold from the counter is not con-
sumed while standing or sitting at
the counter. The place may be
provided with tables, at which
persons can sit while consuming
the notwithstanding liquors.
Section 50, Chapter AL, Laws
OF 1921, provides that no person
having license for the sale of non
Intoxicating beverages to be sold
for consumption on the premises
where sold, shall maintain a stand
ing bar or counter of any descrip-
tion at which such drinks or bever-
age are consumed, in the place OF
room covered by such license.
State Prohibition Commissioner
w. Stanley Smith was in Ashland
recently and conferred with mayor
in the matter of licenses in Ash
land, which the council has already ,
granted but which have not been
given to the applicants. 1t was
decided that the licenses will be
kept by the city until the end of
the month, or until the applicants
have complied with the law in re-
moving the bars.

Steal Tir es from Wrecked Car.

To have the tires and the battery
stolen after the car struck a tele-
phone pole, turned turtle and was
damaged, was the misfortune of a
Bessemer party Tuesday evening
A Hudson car, driven and owned
by a Bessemer man whose name
could not be learned, went into the
ditch, struck and knocked over a
telephone pole about midnight
Tuesday short distance east of
the Northwestern depot. The car
turned over completely, it is said,
but the occupants escaped with a
few minor bruises. The driver
was accompanied by two CON-
panions. The top was smashed
and the car otherwise damaged.
The car was left standing near
the place of the accident and some
time during the night miscreants
stole the FIVE tires with their rims
and the battery. The machine was
hauled to Sanders garage the fol-
lowing morning
