Adam and Eve and The Christmas Tree What did Adam and Eve have to do with the Christmas tree? Everything. And nothing. Chalk it up to medieval custom if you like, but the same 11pple tree that caused all the trouble in Eden is said to be the forerunner of our Christmas tree. It started with the mystery plays of the Middle Ages. They usually centered around Paradise and the apple that were presented around ChristEve gave to Adam. The plays mas lime; the tree with the apples stood in the background. Thus, the earliest association of a tree With the Christmas holiday. Gradually, any fir tree hung with apples took on significance. It stood for immortality because it was ever green; it stood for religion because of the apples. In ils first home, Germany, it was called the Paradise Tree. The custom spread to Italy and England, picking up lights and ornaments along the way. Tiny creches, candles and other objets d'art began to appear on the boughs. Soon, they had replaced the apples entirely. Across the ocean, the new symbol of Christmas flourished. Tradition has it that the Hessian soldiers, homesick for Germany, set up Christmas trees during our Revolutionary War. At least one source credits George Washington's victory at Trenton to the Christmas tree - for the German mercenaries were celebrating around the tree that cold night when the colonial soldiers attacked. By the early 1800s, the ChristI - . .,J DE BRA LEAR TINE ..... 'Of! - . Christmas Joys. mas tree had come to stay. One popular magazine described "trees visible through the windows, whose g r e e n boughs are laden with fruit" at the holiday season. And in 1830, the term "Christmas tree" broke into print. A York, Pa., newspaper published the historIc words-part of a notice for a charity affair. In a way, it was only natural for America to pick up the custom so avidly. Evergreen trees were abundant, the first greenery spied by the Pilgrims when they stepped ashore. And If by chance they were not available, Americans could be Inventive. One Illinois resident used a tiny sassafras tree in the 1850s. Another celebrant decorated a tiny bush with popcorn and colored paper. It took a New Hampshiritc, President Franklin Pierce, to bring an official tree to Washington. But it wasn't until Cnlvin Coolidge's term as President in 1923 that the first ceremonial lighting of the White House tree took place. Today, the executive mansion's tree is a warm and familiar custom -lighting up the lawn of the White House for all to see. In individual homes, in New York's Rockefeller Center, on Christmas cards and in popular magazines-wherever It it found the Christmas tree today is a sturdy svmbol of all that is good and cheerful and warm about the holiday. And, like everything else, it all started in Erlen. Sincere Good Wishes I - We take this opportunity to extend heartfelt thanks to all our friends and patrons.

More than two-thirds of companies gtvmg business gifts now deliver at least ~orne of t h e s e directly to the home, a recent sur· vey reveals. The guidelines to effel!- tive giving are quite simple. The Specialty Advert i s i n g Association offers the following tips: • Keep your g if t s of modest value in relation to the importance of each re· c i p i e n t as an employee, prospect or customer. Extravagant g if t s smack of bribery. • Choose your gifts indi· vidually, considering the tastes of each group of recipients, or, preferably, of each individual recipient. • Choose only high qual· ity g i f t s that are useful, durable and dependable. • Personalize each gift, if possible, with the recipient's name or initials. e Package each gift attractively and securely. • Accompany each p a c k age with a personal note, greeting card or at least a special gift label. e Deliver each gift with a flair, if possible - per· sonally or by special mes· senger - and preferably to each recipient's home rath· er than to his office. Often it is easiest to select the proper gift quickly a n d painlessly ~hrough a b u s i n e s s gift counselor.

"'- . Accident Free Holiday Can Be the Best Gift It is a grim irony that the home, which most of us c o n s i d e r a sanctuary of safety and security, is the site of countless accidents, minor and major. And at no time is a home accident more disrupting than during the Christmas season. Unfortunately, h o 1 ida y festivities s om e what inc r e a s e the likelihood of h o m e accidents from the t w o more p r e v a 1 e n t sources - fires and falls. Several factors contribute to this. One is the general excitement of the season, particularly am on g children. Another is the fact that in most homes there is more confusion and disarray than u s u a I. And, to compound the risks, there is often more drinking than ordinary during the holid a y s and consequently, more impaired judgment. A c o m m o n source of Christ m as fires is, of course, the traditional tree. In ihose households where the time-honored custom of trimming the tree with real candles is s ti 11 observed, the greatest care should be exercised to keep children a safe distance from the flames and to make sure that all candles are completely extinguished before going to bed. If you trim y<>ur t r e e with electric bulbs, check carefully for defective wiring, which can easily set off a tree fire, particularly if the tree has dried out. Another source of home fire disasters dur· ing Christmas is the fireplace, ideally the glowing center of family hospitality and happiness. A fireplace without the proper screening or one in which too many people take on .the responsibility of keeping the fire burning bright can shed s p ark s out into the paper-littered living room and quickly get out of control. For many children, fires are compellingly fascinating. No matter how dill· g en t I y they have been trained never to strike matches, they yield to the temptation if matches are with i 1\ reach an<t if the children are not watched. Many parents who do not ordinarily leave their chil· dren unattended may do so for a few minutes during the holidays. The mother may r u s h down to the neighborhood shopping c e n t e r for a last-minute, all-but-forgotten gift, or the parents may go down the street for a quick holiday cup with the neighbors - just for five or ten minutes, but long enough for children to start a fire. The hazards of injuries from falls d u r i n g Christ· mas time run high during the preparatory days when trimming the tree and' I OREGON'S MARKET FOR TYPEWRITERS and ADDERS decking the halls lure people into unaccustomed gymnastics. Don't try to crown the tip of the tree with that fin a 1 star, or h an d the mistletoe from that high c e i I in g without using-a sturdy step ladder. Piling books on boxes and boxes on chairs to gain the u p p e r reaches is inviting disaster - although it always seems not only possiWe Have 'em! ble but fun to try, if you are fortified w i t h holiday drinks. On Christmas day, with g i f t s open and strewn a b o u t, the risk of falls again increases. The floor is likely to be covered with new acquisitions, often unseen because they are cov· e r e d by wrapping paper. All the accustomed path· ways throughout the home became obstacle courses.

Some historians believe the Magi were Melchior, ruler of Nubia and Arabia, Balthasar of Ethiopia and Caspar of Tarsus. They are usually depicted as representing the three ages of man: Melchior as an old, longbearded man, Balthasar as miLdie-aged and swarthy, and Caspar as a tall, beardless youth. The word "Magi" means "auJ:ust" and was given to the priest-teacher-astrologrrs of ancient Media and Persia. It is said they started in Babylon and the provisions the~· carried with them never diminished in amount. According . to legend, the three Magi lost their guiding star in Jerusalem. King Herod sent for them. He told the wise men to search diligently for the Infant a n d bring word back of His whereabouts. They continued on their way and stopped at a well to refresh themselves and their camels. When they looked into the well, they saw their lost guiding star reflecting ir, the water.
