... A HEKALD I OP .THE KING f .. ~ T ,f, , I ... I jl*. wCw iecoMlion Jiad edneient JU c4rabian J£esetid Whan you faiten the ornament* to your Chriitma* tree this year you will be commemorating a centuriesold Arabian legend that relates how plants blossomed and flowered and trees miraculously here ripened fruit on the eve at the first Christmas. In fact, the Christmas tree ItaaM stems from the story of a Scandinavian ’’sacred” tree and Martin Luther, a German, is said to have brought the first one indoors and decorated it for the Yule season in the early ifth century. Ihese are’only two of more than • acoro of legends from which today's Christmas symbols and customs stein. According to Jeannette Lee. who has probed their origin tor nearly a dozen years, the American Christmas symbols—from eandlas and bells to kissing under the mistletoe—have no common nationality. They Have come from all parts of the world. Mrs. Lee, who is supervisor of creative art for a greeting card company, constantly utilizes the traditions and emblems of the festival as ornaments for Christmas cards and is just as. constantly searching for new ones. This year, for example, the bright-colored tree ornarhents are ip high vogue as decorative devices on Christmas cards. Christmas Helps World's Economy Many people, with the total exception of children, have come to believe that Christmas has become, too coihrriercial. In a spiritual sense, this is true to some extent. Economically, however, no other holiday or festive season contributes so much to the welfare of the world. Christmas has hardly passed into the nevir year before thousands are at work on toys and myriads of other Christmas specialties for the next holiday. Each year, as the lights of Christmas trees twinkle on a wintry night, how many of* us think of the millions who have gained employment through the Christmas shopping industry? And .yet, ’too commercial” may be an overstatement. Is it too wrong, once a year, ,to make the dominate theme one of giving rather than of receiving!? Christmas, and the spirit of Christmas, has endured wars and great chaos through centuries, as a time of joyousness and happiness, and giving hay laiways been an important part of the festivities. ’ The picture of the family united, with presents opened, and children wrapped in the joyousness of Childhood's greatest'emotion is still, and will remain, tho Christmas story.
