DECORATIONS ON A

--OW many persons know the
IL symbolism Of the ornaments
IL used on the Christmas trees?
Our trees. large and small, are dec
GRATED with all kinds Of shining or.
naments and toys, evidently with
no regard for proportion; for very
often small trees have large glass
balls. cornucopias and other ornar
'ments not in keeping with the size
Of the tree. Red. green and white
beads and yards Of gold and silver
tinsel are festooned about the
branches of the tree, but how
many know the meaning Of the
Christmas colors or what the tin.
sci represents.
OF course there is a subcon-
scious feeling that the tree is in
memory Of the birth Of the Christ
Child. and there 10 an inspiring re-

The star is placed at the very
top Of the tree. II Is symbolic Of
the star which guided the wise
men to Bethlehem, The suspend.
ed angels represent the Heavenly
Host saying GLORY to God In the
Highest, and on earth peace, good
will toward men." Another angel
announces the birth Of a Saviour
to the shepherds. In the upper
part of the tree 10 placed q figure
OF the Christ Child. Near by are
very small pictures of the Virgin
Mary and the Wise Men. Hanging
from one Of the branches is q tiny
metal casket to represent the con-
tainer for. the gold and franklin
csnss and myrhh which the Wise
Men presented to the Child.
4 figure Of Santa Claus with his
rosy cheeks and gray beard, the
embodiment Of love and generosity
has . prominent place on this little
tree. Hung all about him are
small Eults, candy and nuts; and
baskets and cornucopias filled with
bonbons. There are also oil kinds
Of very small toys, which dslight
the heart ofFa child. Throughout
the middle part of the tree are
placed miniature dolls to represent
the people Of all nations. The Child
Of Bethlehem wes dsStinsd to be-
come the Saviour Of all mankind.
On the lower branches are set
