Show THURSDAY, DECEMBER 26, 1968 PLEASANT GROVE REVIEW, PLEASANT GROVE, UTAIj THURSDAY, DECEMBER 26, 1968 caroling once keyed to dancing and folk-song- s by the juggler in the fam-ous story, the dancing was offered reverently. Thus, some of the most famous Latin Christmas hymns were written to dance tunes. The custom of caroling found its way into the Christian church from pa-gan rituals. The clergy, al-though opposed to the practice, had to accept it and so contented them-- The earliest known Christmas hymn is Jesus refulsit ominum (Jesus, Light of All the Nations), written by Saint Hilary of Poitiers in the 4th cen-tury. However the first Christmas carol with the traditionally lighter tone was born in Italy among the early Franciscan monks. Strictly speaking, the word "carol" should be ap-plied to the lyrics written to go with a round of dancing, namely a dance measure. However, as with many words common us-age has changed its mean-ing until now it designates almost exclusively the songs written to celebrate the Christmas festival. The original meaning of the word "carol" is right in keeping with the first caroling, for it consisted of both dancing and singing. The "crib" of the Saviour, in the traditional setting, was placed in the center of the church at Christmas and the carollers formed a ring to dance around it. selves with limiting its practice. The struggle between the clergy and the church-goers went on for years. Even as late as 1209, it was necessary for the council of Avignon to forbid the-atrical dances and secular songs in churches. Little by little the religious dances were done away with. Those which sur-vived the longest were the dances performed on Like the tricks performed Shrove Tuesday. Friend in Need TRACY GREENWOOD, 5, Velma, Okla., and his friend, Susie, share a thoughtful moment. The 1969 National March of Dimes Boy symbolizes 250,000 Ameri-can babies born each year with birth defects. You can help fight birth defects by giving to the March of Dimes in January.

Years ago, in Scotland, the most prized treats were oranges, currants and watered-dow- n porter ale. Today their gifts are more prosaic. Italian children usually receive their presents on January 6, the last day of the holiday season. In Mexico, the children receive additional gifts on Epiphany, January 6. 8--- fill .,, I ; Sir-- . r T 8 May the joy of Christmas g ; surround you and yours! ji GENE'S BODY SHOP I GENE McCANDLESS 8 'J t ' W ill Jill 1. 1 1 II IIT) m A ':':;Vi-S?!SS(II.WI-ll'l1 ' ; !
