WINS SNOWMOBILE - The Royal Can-
adian Legion at Hensall have just
concluded a lucky draw on a new Ski-
doo, and the winner was Ray Schwalm,
a Hensall resident. Shown here pres-
enting the keys to Mr. Schwalm is Jim
Stan, leading ticket seller for the
project, while Mrs. Stan, who acted
as treasurer of the draw, looks on.
Reeve John Baker made the draw.
Brightening the home with
twigs, boughs and wreaths of
holly is one of the oldest and
happiest of Christmas traditions.
The custom of bringing holly
into the house dates back even
into earlier centuries. In anc-
ient4Rome during the gay Sat-
urnalia, midwinter feast to the
god of sowing and husbandry,
Romans sent friends holly to
convey esteem and good wishes.
There are two hollies native
to Ontario, according to the
Federation of Ontario Natural-
ists. They are Mountain holly
and common winterberry holly,
sometimes called black alder.
Mountain holly is an erect,
much -branched shrub of moist
places growing to a height of
ten feet or more. The leaves
are thin and smooth and bright
green above. The fruit is a
purplish -red to crimson berry
about one-quarter of an inch
in diameter and borne on a
slender purplish stalk.
