iOf Log Burning
~I pALMER LAKE, COLO.--Resi-
~dents of this high-perched town
] on the great Divide celebrate their
' modern Christmas in an old-fash-
Iioned way, by burning the tradi-
tlonal yule log.

ferent note crept in. Yuletide be-
.~ame a time for feuds to cease.
In England, before the Reforma-
tion, bringing in the yule log was
