Enemies of Foitsts Of all the elements destructive to trees, fire Is the worst, principally because it is the result of human carelessness. Its direct damage amounts to about 60 million dollars yearly in the forests of this country but since this total does not include damage to tree seed, to loss in soil fertility, nor to the weakened con-dition con-dition and loss in merchantable volume vol-ume from trees that are not killed, the total figure is many times that amount.

There are almost as many versions of Santa as .there , are nationalities Father Christmas, Kris Kringle,,St Njch-olas Njch-olas or even Babonska. But, whatever what-ever his name, he is loved and wel-Jomed wel-Jomed by all children. Y In America on Christmas Eve were is a merry tinkling of sleigh bells as Santa Claus drives up in a sleigh drawn by eight reindeer. Pauses just long enough to climb down each chimney. From a huge pack on his back he fills the children's chil-dren's stockings with toys and goodies. Gifts too large to be stuffed in the stockings are tied on glittering evergreen trees adorned with tinsel, gay ornaments and lighted candles, or electrical lights now in vogue. It's not always Santa who brings gifts to children in other lands. The Dutch children anxiously await the arrival of St. Nicholas. He was the bishop of Myra, so he is dressed in the traditional bishop's robes of black, wears a mitre and carries the crozier. He rides a white horse, named "Sleipner" and is accompanied accompan-ied by Black Peter, his page boy. Instead of hanging up their stockings, stock-ings, Dutch children place their wooden shoes in the chimney corner before going to bed. On the window win-dow sills they leave a bunch of hay for "Sleipner." It is customary for St. Nicholas to overturn chairs and leave the room in general confusion con-fusion for Christmas morning. THE English children look for a Santa Claus who closely resembles resem-bles our own. They also find gifts tied to a green Christmas tree but this custom has been in effect only since Queen Victoria was a young bride. Her husband, Albert, a German Ger-man prince, introduced this Christ- a C7 OfWaJdncL FROM forests and woodlots of the United States a torrent of green rolls into the cities during pre-holi-day weeks as farmers and foresters forest-ers market their annual crop of Christmas trees. The twinkling tree which adds holiday cheer to practically every home in the nation is one of America's Amer-ica's most invariable domestic habits. hab-its. As a result, it has brought the Christmas tree business into the realm of "big business." Some 14 million evergreens are required annually. an-nually. Their retail value has soared into the quarter billion dollar vicinity, vicin-ity, the 1946 returns being estimated esti-mated at 28 million dollars. Cash returns from the sale of Christmas trees represent only a small fraction of their value to American agriculture. Thousands of farmers are using the lowly evergreen ever-green to anchor sand lands to protect pro-tect the shifting soil from further erosion. . . With exception of the prairie lands, virtually every state in the union produces Christmas trees, at least for local consumption. In the West. Colorado and Montana Mon-tana are the heavy exporters while in the East, the New England states compete with Canadian growers for the American markets. Inland, the heart of the Christmas tree country centers on upper Michigan, north-em north-em Wisconsin and Minnesota. . lp , - - r - ; r -r --n -rrn-rr -i --iiinri iii.-iiiiii n il - rmn i iKiiiiifinTii annai i flii n tin Mimtir "T vy- rr iir 1 plllSfilllii iiiirp:fStii 1 i " - ' 1 THE LEHI SUN, LEHf, UTAH r i i (a Jls Jlu m w . r mi. . mai custom to England from Cer- many. v ; In Finland Santa' has' elves who pass out gifts for him. This generous gen-erous group is known as Wainemoi-nen Wainemoi-nen and Akko. Babonska, a young and beautiful girl, brings the gifts in Russia. Grandfather Frost accompanies Babonska Ba-bonska in a sleigh as she makes her rounds on Christmas Eve. Italy has no Santa Claus, but in his place is a beneficent old witch, Befona, who sails through the air on a broom stick. She leaves her presents for the children beside the hearth. Papa Noel, who Is very similar to Santa Claus, reigns in Brazil. Like Santa, he wears a red suit and trav- els in a sleigh drawn by reindeer, but he enters the house through a window instead of the chimney. AN ANGEL, who descends on a golden cord to accompany Santa, San-ta, leaves the gifts in Czechoslovakia. Czechoslo-vakia. . ' Dwarfs bring , the gifts 'to Scandinavian Scan-dinavian children, who in turn leave bowls of porridge on the doorstep for their benefactors. The gifts are distributed a the supper hour. In Sweden, every family places a sheaf of grain on a pole or on fence posts for the birds' Christmas dinner, din-ner, j Spanish children also place grain on the window sills so that the Magi may feed their horses when they bring the gifts. Older people fill an Urn of Fate from which the gifts are drawn on Christmas Day. Lapland's benefactor is the Christmas Christ-mas Goat, or Old Man Christmas. He" wears a strange garb, a hooded fur coat, long whiskers and a false nose. A radiant angel, who rides in a sleigh drawn by six reindeer, brings the gilts to children of Switzerland. HENRY W LONGFELLOW I heard the bells on Christmas Day Their old, familiar carols play, And wild and sweet The words repeat Of peace on earth, good-will to men! And thought how, as the day had come, The belfries of all Christendom Had rolled along The . unbroken song Of peace on earth, good - will to men! Till, ringing, singing on its way, The world revolved from night to day, A voice, a chime, A chant sublime ' Of peace on earth, good-will to men! Then from each black, accursed mouth The cannon thundered thun-dered in the South, And with the sound The carols drowned Of peace on earth, good-will to men! It was as if an earthquake rent The hearth-stones of a continent. And made forlorn The households born Of peace on earth, good-will to men! And in despair I bowed my head; "There is no peace on earth," I said, "For hate is strong. And mocks the song Of peace on earth, good-will to men!" Then pealed the bells more loud and deep: "God is not dead, ; . nor" " doth he . sleep! ' ' The wrong shall fail. The right prevail. pre-vail. With peace on earth, good-will to men!" mmtd 0B Jo NOTICE NOTICE OF PROPOSED AMENDMENT OF THE ARTICLES AR-TICLES OF INCORPORATION OF THE STATE BANK OF LEHI, A CORPORATION.
