ASK YOUR GREYHOUND AG t NT ABOUT . ! THRILLING EXMNSE-MID TOURS ALMOST ANYWHERE IN THE U. S. A., CANADA, MEXICO Ywrnmrn i ^ j Iin Virginia, the old Dominion, ! storied land of early American bis | tory, there is an old tradition of the origin of tho Yule log that is retold every Christina^. As the family sits around the Yule log and. sips their Christmas eggnog on Christinas eve, the an cient legend is recounted again. One very cold ^Christmas eve, when the frosty wind howled across a world of snow, an old man was sitting in his little cabin wishing that he had a fire to warm him. Suddenly he beard the cry of a little child away out in. the told. The old man hobbled to thi door and gated out across the snow. The wind and the snow Cfne rustling in and the old man shivered until . his " onliest two t+ef" chattered with cold. The plaintive cry of the child came again above the whistle of the wind. It went straight to the old man's heart and he wished with all his power of longing that he might have the strength to go out and find the unfortunate babe. crj) came a third timt ? an J | a wondrous thing happened. A m'.raculous power filled the old man's veins, ll is muscles became ftrong and tense, his crutch fell back into the n V?V? and he stepped from bit thresh old out into the snow. Hinrying over the snow with ? speed he h-ad not owned since boy hood, by and by he came to a little child lying in a snow bank. He bent down and touched the child and a great new strength flowed over him, a strength which seemed to give him wings as he sped back to his cabin. Arriving there, he placed the child upon the bed, tenderly drew the ragged coverlet about it and then looked to see if there were a bit of furniture he could use to make a fire with which to warm the little one. At that precise moment a great, log rolled across the threshold and into the fireplace'.; The little child looked at the log with eyes like stars? stars which sent gleams of light that kindled the log with the most brilliant fire the old man ever had /seen. The dingy little room immediately was , filled with radiance and warmth, and as the light enwrapped the child he laughed and Lmghed with a melody like a song from the heart. The old man tinned hit eyes to where the fire burned and watched the flames leap in beamtifml rainbow Unit over the log, an* as hit ?U eyes watched, the colors teemed to form th? shape of the Crost in the ftre. The flames of the Cross leaped higher and higher, blue, red, yel low and white, and as the old man watched this display, suddenly and magically there appeared a table in the center of the room, covered with a Christmas feast such as never before had been spread be fore his eyes. And never again was the old man hungry or cold, and never after that was there a Christ mas in old Virginia without the Yule log and the Christmas Child to give light and warmth. And that is the story of the Yule log as it is told in Virginia every Christmas eve. May this Yuletide hold every thing that's wonderful and dear!
