which were straight and me

with a halo.
The tree was meant to rep
resent humanity, the candles,
people good and bad; and the
Infant, the Baby Jesus.
Another explanation links to
day's Christmas tree U ancient
feasts of the winter cmilnox.
when trees were adorned with
trinkets.

custom of a decorated fir.
Many are the legends, but one
thing Is certain. Nowadays
Christmas wouldn't be Christmas
without a tree.
