Be- fore the island people were Christian- ized they had a mid-winter festival called Yule which was a season of merrymaking. When Christianity was established instead of attempting to suppress the carols, their use was encouraged with the new religious in- terpretation of Christmas.

Such a one is “Deck the Hall.” Tt comes from Wales, the land of hearty |singing and vividly pictures the house- hold preparation for the feast. At midnight of Christmas eve the Yule log, decorated with all kinds of de- vices and 'garnished with evergreen was brought in with a procession of lights, banners and songs and placed in the middle of the room. KEach'one present was supposed to sit on it and sing a Yule song.
