Hard Chnstrnases !.
for C. Washington

$40 ONE has told us much about
i3|Z George V7ashington's Christ
- masses. But from the record
Of his life we learn how he spent some
of his Christmas days.
It was very cold Christmastide in
1T77 at Valley Forge. Snow was on
the hills. Everything was frozen. And
Washingtons army was In great need
of food, clothing and shelter.
instructions Of parties of men to go
foraging for food are entered in the
orderly book for that Christmas day
at Valley Forge, which was anything
but merry for Washington.
Still more desperate were the food
conditions at Morristown, In Ito,
when Washington reported that his
army was on half allowance and near
starvation. "We have never expe-
rienced like extremity at any period
OF the war;" declared Washington,
pleading that food be sent.
There was a welcome Christmas
present for. Washington and his men
at New Windsor in 17S0 when big.
Christmas wagon came with over 1000
shirts and other comforts made by
Philadelphia women patriots-things
needed by the men under Washington
who were cheerfully suffering all sorts
of hardship in order that this country
might he free. The Philadelphia wom-
/ en- also raised, that year, over $780,
900 in aid of the soldiers.
The line old Colonial mansion (the
Craigie house) in Cambridge, Mass,
(now widely known as the home Of
Henry w. Longfellow), was the place
where Washington spent his first
Christmas as commander of the Rev
Iolutionery army in 1775. Mrs. Wash
Ington was there with him Gas she was
later at Valley Forge), and there was
some pleasure in the midst of the
heavy cares and responsibilities car
ried by the great Washington.
A year later Christmas day found
Washin gton at the head Of his 2.4O0
kbrave men making his celebrated
crossing Of the Delaware river, nine
miles above Trenton. The snow and
sleet were binding, it is recorded, and
the cold was intense. But hearts
were brave. ~
Wherever he was at Christmastide,
Washington was cheered with the
thought that the cause Of the strug-
Cling colonies would surely win. A
few days before Christmas, 1776, he
wrote 10 his older brother,> John Au-
gustine Washington, Between you
and me, our affairs are in very bad
situation. :. However, under a
full persuasion of the justice of our
cause, cannot entertain an idea that
it will finally sink, though 1t may re-
main fol., some time under cloud"
Washington must have had some
very merry Christmases at Mount Yer
non. There were no children of his
own with whom Washington could
romp. But we can easily imagine
the big-hearted general putting on a
false beard of fuzzy white whiskers
and singing a pack over his back for
the delight of the little ones in the
neighborhood.
| General Washington was truly the
Father of His Country" and we have
a very good idea Of the sort Of holiday
spirit in which he observed the "glad
Christmastfde" when our republic was
in its Infancy. Y
No one in all our bright history as
nation has handed down more ra-
diant Christmas message Of hope and
faith.

CHRISTMAS CAROL
Music and Song Always Assoei-
ated With the Yuletide.
Original Sacred Character Of Carols
Was Almost Lost Sight Of III
Thirteenth Century.
6HfH USIC and song have always beer
&6x5u .,o,ot. 4al ,,,;+h EhricfmaS sitf

6Rfn USIC and song have always been
STl 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 nslsical
masses.
The practice of singing carols or
canticles was supposed to recall the
"In Excelsis Gloriah gof the angels and
the song of the shepherds on the,
first Christmas night. III
A very old carol, published in 1921,
gives an amusing description of church
revelries:
About the which both boys and girls DO
dance and timely Jet,
And carols sing in praise of Chrlse
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 were written
with Latin and English words In al
ternate lines, or with Latin refrain.
The well-known carol
When Christ was born of Mary Tree
In Bethlehem, that fair citie, 4
Angels sang with mirth ard gleel ~
In Excelsis Gloria. r..
and another with chorus,
= A
b, Christus natus hodie
The babe. the son,
The holy one
or Mary,
are good examples Of this class.
When the tendency to ribaldy 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 focks by
night:
A shepard upon hill he satt.
He had on him hys tabard and hiatt,
Hys tarbox, hys, pipe and hys fiagatt:
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! on Thee my pype, IA.
NV skyrte, my tarbox and my scrype.
Home to my fellows now will skype,
And loke unto my shepe.
In the Thirteenth century the ga
cred character of these Christmas
songs was almost entirely lost sight
of. The Puritan parliament abolished
Christmas and carols altogether, but
feasting and revelry returned with the
Restoration. II z g e - =. ~
Carol singing which had fallen into
disuse, was revived by collection OF
carols published by D. Gilbert in 1922,
but caroling, which was formerly
ushered in by the Ginning of church
bells, and the sallying forth Of choirs
which chanted their way round vii
lages until their throats were hoarse
and their noses red from cold and
friendly Christmas potations, Is now
almost a thing Of the past.-Tit Bits,

position as man with an oyerdraft
at the bank. The bank may tell him
to stop writing checks.
So that Saturday. Lynden will vote
on whether to keep its schools open
or not. A few think it would be a
good thing to close down: those who
believe in education will want to
keep them running at any cost.
And even with the extra seven mills,
that cost will be three mills under
the levy this year, as a result of sa-
wings already made by the Lynden
school board.
