Although primitive trtbea trim med trees centuries ago. It wasn't until about 1S17 that families In the United States took up this custom. Those pagans, the Egyptians. for example, brought palm leaves Indoors, symbolic of "life triumphant over death." The Ro mans trimmed trees with trin kets and sometimes lighted can dles with an Image of their sun cod on top. The Druids tied apples to the branches to thank their god for giving them various fruits. When these primitive people accepted Christianity, they con Itnued the rites but changed them to honor Christ The ever green came to mean Christ's gift of new life after a dark winter. For even though the cold killed most trees, the evergreen re mains the "tree that does not die." In Germany about the 15th century. Martin Luther, brought a small fir Into hi home and placvd lighted candles on It; to denote the atarry fcky over the manger the night Christ wai born. He wanted people to ap preciate the Chrlstmaa Joys but the Idea spread slowly. Then In 1SI7. a man from Ohio named August Imgard decorated a small spruce tree for his nieces atdl nephews. Soon families all around took up the Idea. At first the decorations were very simple fcmall toys, colored paper or naments, strings of popcorn or tufts of cotton. Today lighted candles are rare ly used and factory made orna ments take the place of nuts and paper chains. The cherished tradition of ecle bratlng Christ's birthday around a Christmas tree has become stronger every year. And the evergreen branches, symbolic of immortality, give us the faith mat has endured since the first uiristmas.

Oregon ? us r& vtrvrs iv tr-x According to legend the phrase "Tell It to the Marines" goes back to the London of 16C4. when Charles II was King of England. A ship's master, re turned from a long cruise, told him a sea story he couldn't be lieve. "Fish that fly like birds?" the Merry Monarch exclaimed. "I have my doubts." "Nay, Sire, it is true," said Sir William Kllligren, colonel of the new British Marine regiment raised that year. "I have myself ' seen flying fish many a time In southern waters. I would vouch for the truth of this strange tale. your Majesty." The King thought it over. At last he turned to Samuel Pepys me secretary or the admiralty. "Mr. Pepys," he said, "no class of our subjects hath such knowl edge of odd things on land and sea as our Marines. Hereafter when we hear a yarn that lack cth likelihood, we will tell it to the Marines. If they believe It, then we shall know it Is true. 9fo(iffojro( inoiicij on jour Gtamas 'tree In a little more than y Chrtstmases V. S. Savings Bonds grow 3314 A Savings Bond gift gets biffoer.
