en- route to Bethlehem the Wise Men
crossed the path of little shep-
herdess named Madelon. Enrap-
tured at the wondrous tale about
the birth of Christ which they re-
lated, she was heartbroken because
she had no gift to offer
While she was crying she detected
a sweet-smelling aroma and looked
up. Standing next to her was an
angel who inquired the reason FOR
her sadness. Madelon explained that
while she wanted to pay homage
to the newly-born Babe, she didn't
even have a single. beautiful flower
such as grew in the fields in the
summer to give Him. The angel
waved her arm and a stunning bunch
Of gorgeous, snowy white Christmas
roses appeared.
Madelon gathered her precious
gift in her arms and hurried off to
Bethlehem where the Wise Men had
gone. After the Wise Mems offerings
of gold, frankincense and myrrh,
she humbly preferred her flowers to
the tiny Infant, who stretched out
a hand to touch the roses. His
fingers lightly brushed the immacu-
late petals and Immediately they
changed to a delicate pink.

MANY unusual and picturesque
1VA tales have been told about the
modern usage Of Christmas flowers,
Although they are legendary, the
carefully spun bits of folklore pro-
vide a colorful background for pres
ent day flower decorations which
are used during the Christmas sea-
son.
Holly, with its red berries, dark
green leaves and needle-like spikes
is Hght-hearted symbol Of friend
ship and good will when December
arrives. According to legend, though,
holly originally was used as an in
strument of cruelty. The crown of
thorns which Christ wore was fash
ioned from holly. Prior to the Cruel
fiXion the plant bore white berries
but after the CrucifXion the berries
turned a bloody crimson. Mistletoe,
a close associate of holly, is said to
have been the wood from which
Christ'S cross was made.
