and that in place thereof, and the more effectually to work a change, markets should be held on the 35th day of December.This was attacking the people, especially the country folks, in their most sensitive paît.It was hardly' to be expected that they would quietly submit to loss of a favorite festive time; nor did they, as the stiU-exist-ing * \u2018news letters\u201d of those days amply testify.The journalists delighted in relating what happened to officers who attempted to tear down Christmas greens publicly displayed.\"The holly and Ivy were Axed so high that command was given for ladders.which were brought, but It was 111 venturing up, when so many Waggs were thronging beneath,\" on* commentator reported with glee.ORIGIN OF YULE TREES The use of Christmas trees sprang up from Scandinavia and Germany.The Idea, however.Is of ancient origin, having Us foundation in the Bible.In Isaiah are the words, \"The glory of Lebanon shall come unto thee, the fir tree, the pine tree and the box together, to beautify the place of My Sanctuary.\" In Egypt, the palm tree was used.\u2022 \u2022 * Prince Albert, the German consort of Queen Victoria, Is credited with introducing the Christmas tree into England.An English historian wrote, \"The forties of the last century saw Christmas reborn In England.The first vogue of Christmas trees was in 1841; the first Christmas cards were on sale\u2014a thousand of them\u2014In 1846; and 184S saw the Issue of the greatest of Christmas books, Dickens\u2019 \u2019A Christmas Carol.\" The Idea came to Dickens In Manchester, and he began work on it during the second week of October.He said that he put all he knew of Christmas Into his Carol, writing in a state of mental incandescence.He wept over It, and laughed, and wept again as he wrote, and walked at night for fifteen or twenty miles about the London streets thinking of his story.It was completed by the end of November and published a few days before Christmas 1843.Six thousand copies\u2014the complete first printing\u2014were sold on the first day.The story Is read In nearly every principal language on earth.Vnder Mussolini's Fascist regime in Italy, efforts were made to abolish Christmas trees as pagan, un-ltalian.and undesirable in a country short of Umber.Any effects of the campaign were undone in the period immediately after World War II when thousands of American and British soldiers gathered around military encampment Christmas trees for Yule-tide celebrations.Now at Christmas time, in Piazza Navona, the ancient Roman square, which has been a traditional market for Christmas creche figurines since the Middle Ages, Christmas trees are displayed to buyers side-by-stde with the traditional statuettes.Over 1,000,000 Christmas trees were sold in Italy in 1955.DEVIL-1N-THK-BOX Speaking of the jack-in-the-box.there is a curious story attached to it.Back in the Middle Ages, it was once deemed 'miraculous,\u2019 due to a certain John Schornr.a preacher who sought converts to his odd faith in England.At that time, pagan superstition and Christianity were intermingled.It was still believed that witches flew through the air on broomsticks to dark, midnight orgies, and that a goblin on the hearth would do all the housework through the long ntght hours if he was regarded kindly by the inmates.George E.Mottnam, a British historian, says that John Schorne's followers believed he could \u2018conjure up BLUE LAWS ONCE BANNED CHRISTMAS Cclebraiing Christmas w a s frowned upon by Puritans in the early New Kngland colonies They\tdid\tnot observe\tholy\tdays.The\tobservation\tof\tChristmas and the making of mince pies were forbidden by blue laws in the Massachusetts and New lia I \\ en colonies.* \u2022\t\u2022 CHRISTMAS PIG The roasting of the Christmas pig is an important ceremony at Christmas in Poland and Serbia \u2022 .\t.FRIED EEL DINNER Italy celebrates Christmas with Magi cakes, fried cels, wine, melons, chicken and pork with mustard sauce, iiViw.' i® TO Tkt I'll! }b Joy in friendship is one of the great pleasures of Christmas.and so it is with much warmth that we wish our friends and customers a MKHKY t HR1STMAS and a HAPPY NEW YEAR GEORGES AUGER prop.Specialty: Shoos for men, women and children.We carry Ritchie and Savage Shoes.507 Main Street - RICHMOND -Tel.TA.6 2102 A boar\u2019s head was the traditional Christinas meat course in England until the reign of James I.That monarch hated pork and ordered turkey or goose served instead.Court and society followed his lead.The Christmas card began In Britain.At Christmas, 1844, W E.Dobson, a Royal Academy artist, made a sketch, lithographed copies of It.and aent these to friends Instead of a letter.It portrayed a family group toasting absent friends.The following year, Sir Henry Cole asked John Calcott Horsley to get up a card similar to Dobaon'a for him to send.Horsley's card, which showed a family celebrating the holiday wtih \"brimming cheer,\" was condemned by temperance advocates.The publicity the controversy gave the card prompted numerous cards to be put on the market and sold.Fruff trees were bound together smth heavy straw withes on Christmas Svs by German peasants in former days.The act of binding tea» preceded by an elaborate eeremony in w'bieA *be respective trees were \"married\" to each other.the devil out of a boot,\u2019 for they sew this happen with their own eyes! Schorne practiced a trick before hia jlock by holding a large top-boot, and after uttering several words In Latin, he would cause a little fiend to jump out of the top of It.This ruse worked by a simple mechanism The miniature devil was concealed In the foot, and on the release of a spring, he Jumped up Into full view.He could lie made to disappear again by pressing another spring.The artisans of the period permanently recorded Schorne's curions device In stone and woodwork, and in older towns in England carvings can still be seen of this preacher holding a boot, a Satanic imp grinning from the top.THF.CUTE IN A TARI» A Christmas card enabled a murder to be solved.A beautiful girl was found strangled in a lonely field In Canada.Her clothes Indicated that ahe came from a community many hundreds of miles eaat.The only other clue besides this and a photo of the dead girl's face was a Christmas card.It bore the words: \"With fondest love from Harry.\" The letter enabled Detective John W.Murray to trace and arrest the sender of the card, who subsequently confessed to the crime.An Knglirhmnn.Jonathan JCitii?, collected 163,000 different specimens of Christmas cards and pasted them info 100 unwieldy albums, weighing altogether eight tons.!
