THE carols, as chroniclers Of nearly
L century ago recorded It, originated
in the church. Bishops In the primi-
tive stage of the church went out
among their clergy at Christmastide
and sang to them carols" The laity
had as early as the thirteenth century
adapted from these songs Christmas
time airs having to do with good
cheer and the open door, for all who
came were feasted.
In 1866, according to q volume In the
Congressional Library. q research -
pert by the name Of Nathan B. Warren
caused to be published through A. w.
Scribner, who described himself as
LOB printer" of Troy, N. Y, treatise
on the origin of Christmas-tirne Gus
toms, nearly all Of which date from an
ancient time. In this was reprint Of
the words and tune Of 'The Boar's
Head" which may prove Of interest.
In the key of c, 1t runs:
The boare,s head in hand bear I,
Bedecked with bays and rosemary.
And I pray you, my masters, be
Merry, Quot es-tis-in con-vt-vi-o.

mainly oxford. But essentially the
carol is q part Of the church. Surely no
institution is more flttingly suited to
perpetuate the thought than that in
which 1t originated. me average per-
son forgets the carol through those IL
months of the year, but when It comes
December 1t means as much to him as
the Christmas tree.
The first carol to take concrete and
permanent form in the religious tone
was "The First Noel" according to this
chronicler of 1866. This runs q number
Of bars before words are introduced.
According to this authority. the words
were arranged to harmoniZe with
very ancient tune by one William
DreSsler.
The first verse is really fine and ex-
presses the true religious origin Of the
carol. Thus: . .-.......s
