lin, Alvin boarded his money as
best he could, but it was impos-

the country or deliberately desert
ed them, is being investigated. An |
attempt will be made to get in
touch with the mother of the two
boys in Oregon in case Slayer does |

The history of Christmas tree usage
extends far into the mists of antiquity
and its origin is difficult TO trace.
Some say it is connected with the
legendary Tree of Time Ygdrasil, the
great tree of Morse mythology. within
whose roots and branches heaven and
earth are Iound. Some say the Gus
tom may lie traced TO the Egyptians
who, at the time OF winter solstice,
decorated their portals with branches
of the date palm-the symbol Of life
triumphant over death.
An ancient legend of the Scandinav-
ians 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
mas season mysterious lights played
among it's branches To this legend
may perhaps be. traced our custom Of
Illuminating the tree when darkness
comes. Among the Greeks, Christmas
is known as the feast OF lights.
To people OF different localities the
term Christmas tree may mean fir.

suitable species found near its markets.
In the vicinity of Chicago short
needle pine found in Michigan and
Wisconsin may be used. On the Pa

while throughout Ohio Norway spruce
is largely used. In Maryland and Vir-
