SCHOOLS TO WESTWARD MAY NOT
 BE OPENED THIS YEAR

Owing to lack of transportation ia cilities there is strong doubt as to the opening O. territorial schools at Nalnek and Dillingham; this fall, ac- cording to a statement made by Commissioner of Education l.. D., Henderson As far as can be asccr- tained. there are no vessels sched- uled 10 visit the district on which transportation for teachers can be secured and no way to get supplies to either village.
 Approval of the opening of the school at Naknek was given some time ago by Commissioner Tender son. Efforts were immediately begun to land d teacher both there and at Dillingham;. It was thought that the teacher now conducting q sum mer school at Chignik could be transferred to one of these villages. but telegraphic advices from Chignik today said that it would be impos- sible on account of lack of transpOr- tation. The mail boat operating in the district. it was said. does not carry passengers.
 Commissioner Henderson has taken the matter up with Superintendent Lopp, of the federal bureau of edu- cation. which has an orphanage at Dillingham;, to see if assistance can be had from that source.

CHRISTMAS BAN IN 1913
Yuletids Observance Was Not Per.
mitted by Ediet Of "Roundhsad
Parliament" In England.

THE northern part Of
Europe the ancient people
kindled great fires to their
" gods, Odin 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 eele-
brated by decorating giant Or 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 3 was not the
day on which II was universally cele-
brated. II 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 Is at Rome before
S54. and at Constantinople, not prior
to $40.
As paganism began to be supplanted
by Christianity, many Of the old cuSl
toms were taken and handed down
through the generations. In the Anglo
Saxon days Of King Alfred the hot-
day season began December 16 and
closed January 9. When Puritanism
arose In England the fate Of Christ
mas was threatened for q 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" n England put a ban on the
observance Of Christmas. The court
Of Massachusetts, In 1859 followed
England's example and Christmas was
put under q 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.
