YULETIDE THORN TREE SAVED Blooming Glastonbury, Subject of Beautiful Legends of Christmas, ~ Was Doomed to Destruction. O\‘»E. of the most beautiful legends of Christmas Is that of the Glastonbury thorn. The thorn tree grew at Ghastonbury Abbey, in Somersetshire, and was supposed to have developed from the staff of Joserh of Arimathea. According to the legend, Joseph came to Glastonbury and while hé was resting on a hijl; afierward known as Weary All hill, he stuck his staff in the earth. The staff immediately grew green and budded, and at Christmas time it blossomed Into ‘beautiful - flowers. - One chronlcler states that during Queen Elizabeth’s reign the thorn had a double trunk, but that a somewhat bigoted Puritan, who disliked the tree because to his mind it smacked of popery, started to cut {t down, and succeeded in demolishing one of the trunks. A miracle reséued the re malning trunk of the tree by causing a chip of wood to fly up and hit the Puritan in the eyve. while at the same time he slipped and cut his leg. Later the tree was grubbed up. but a number of smaller trees raised from slips of the original are sald to be owned .by persons in the neighborhood. . :

Our Commercialized Christmas. Chrisunas is the decoration day of a commercial age. Then, as on no other day. we face with compassion those who have -fallen in our battles for wealth. For a moment we think of the thousands of children who have no share in that easy life we give our children, and must find the season's joy:ln the charity dinner. Along with the barter 1o which we have debased our giving within iur circle of ac qualntances. we play at «uiénding the spirit of the day to those who are the pawns ¢! our indust: .l gzame. The Salvation army lass. stsuding cold and numb on the street coroer, collecting funds for Christmas baskets for the poor. reminds us of the wreckage left In the wake of our prospesity.

Long ago the Roman Catholic priests had messes for everything. and 12 a ship went to the Went Indies they had a box In ber upder the protection of some patron +saint. into which the sailors put money or other valuables in order to secure the prayera of the chorch. At Christ mas thiese boxes were opened and were thence called Christmais boxes. In England the day after Christmas & kuown as “Boxing day,” from the Christmas boxes which used to be in circulation, and ‘in the British museym can be seen boxes covered with green glaze with a elit in the side for money and presents. : -

Differ on Christ’s Birthday THE early Christma were divided a 9 to the date on which the nativity of Christ should be celebrated. Some of _ these celebrated it on the first or sixth of January, other groups observed September 29 and stiil another March 20. As early as the fourth century. however, the period of the new year had been ‘generally accepted as the time . for celebrating Chirist's birth. The Western branchs of the church observed December. 25 and the Eastern church January 6. Finally it was decided that all should celebrate Decewber 25. .Pope Julius L, who presided in ‘the first half of the fourth century, is credited with having set the gate. - . ;
