QUESTION Betsy Dehn, Spencerville, Md., writes that
when she was young, there was a story that went something
like this: It was nearing the Christmas holidays and the apple
tree was feeling sad and forelorn. His branches were bare and
plain whereas the pine tree was decorated with tinsel and glit
ter. The apple tree complained to God and God said to the
apple tree that he would give the tree a special gift. Betsy
doesn’t remember the remainder of the story, but God ended
up putting a Christmas star in the heart of each apple. If you
cut an apple crosswise, you will find a perfectly shaped five

complete story of how the star came to appear in the center of
the apple.
