The supersti tious still believe that at Yule tide the animals, sensing the birthday of Christ, pay their re spects to Him who was born among them. It is a common belief in lie land and England that when the cock crows in the stillness of December nights, it is crowing to announce the approaching Christmas season. In the old world, the bees are cnirl in cine the rattle kneel in honor of the manger, and sheep lo g- in solemn procession in commemoration of the visit of iho anaits In the sheDherds. Be cause of their close association with the Nativity, the cows and cheep are given the best possible care during me tnnsimas per iod. Thm-n ic an old Indian legend lhai slill iwsists in the upper regions of Canada, handed down from father to son. The Indians believe that on Christmas night, all the deer in the world kneel and look up to the Heavens. This is their way of showing their respect to the Great Spirit. In the German Alps, it is com monly believed that the cattle have the gift of speech on Christ mas Eve. However, it is con sidered a great sin to play the part of the eavesdropper upon them. All the superstitious believe that it is their duty to be nice to everv dumb animal during the Christmas holidays. This period, they feel, is the animals' special season for rejoicing in the great event. And they realize that the Creator has a special spot in His heart for the lowly animals, since He permitted His only Son to be born among them on that first Christmas.
