Among the many odd customs still 1 obsurved In Irelaud at Christmas few are mora curious than the practice off enrryiug about "the wren bush" on Sl Stephen's day, aud ntitliiuurled urepuz-. tied to explain why the poor llttio "king of all birds" should bu put to dcuth on the festival of the first mar tyr. The most nrobablo oxnlauatlon to that tho wren was sacred to tho DruIdVsf and was used by thorn In dlvUmtieH and other pagan rites at the festival ot. tho winter solstice, which utmost cola- clded with Christmas, and consequent ly the clergy urged their converts t destroy the birds which wore asoi- ated with such unholy rites.
