Christmas
BY MARJORIE HOWE DiXON
Gifts that recall the joy and glory of
summer in the garden will be greatly
enjoyed by the garden lovers. Plants,
Seeds, bulbs, small and unusual tools,
even this $hoi t list presents fascinating
possibilities to the person who delights
in the appropriate in giving.
One of the chief things to be considered,
perhaps, is whether the Mend's
garden is an old one or whether it is
in its infancy. Of one thing, one may
always rest assured, no gardtner is
over satisfied, always there is a tree, a
shrub, a flower needed to complet the
collection: always there is a new or
novel tool desired to make gardening
n greater delight. The friend who
supplies the smallest of these needs is
sure of a harvest of gratitude.
Announcing Delayed Gift.
A pleasant way to anhounce the future
arrival of something for the garden
is to send a small fore-runner on
Christmas morning. If you wish to
tell your friend that you have paid for
a rare evergrcon that the nurseryman
will send at the right time send p. note
to that effect with a bcx of tiny
Christmas trees and bright berries
with which to fill the window box.
Such a box will be both a present
joy and a l>romise of a permanent joy
to come. If instead of an evergreen
a collection of rosebushes has been ordered.
a single rose may be sent with
the note of greeting that announces
the fact.

Perhaps the recipient of the Christmas
gift only rents her house, yet
finds the garden necessary to her happiness.
To such an one, send a collection
of the seeds, of the less commonly
used annuals. Grandmother's
garden knew some of these as Painted
Tongue, Mourning Bride, Butterfly
Flower. Seedraen sell them as Sal
piglosis, scmzamnus, .-m-huium. i u
these add single annual chrysanthemums,
sweet sultan, bush morning
glories, varieties of the glorified Phlox
Drummondi end the splendid improved
petunias. Even if these r.re not entirely
new to her, the garden lady will
l)e pleased.
A Present of Vines.
Perhaps the garden which is to have
c Christmas present needs some climbers.
A present gift would be a collection
of seeds of annual vines, such as
the balloon vine, the cypresses, including
the new cardinal climber, the
Brazilian morning glory, and the
graceful Mumndia vine in its many
colors.
A garden new or old needs a collection
of such summer bulbs as the
Zephyr lillies and Hyac'nthus candicanes,
and always there Is room for
such old time sweet smelling things as
lavender, bergamont and the "musk"
of our grandmothers, which the growers
call mimulus mochatus.
Do you prefer to send something besides
seeds or plants? Then why not
a collection of clear, slender glass
vases of different heights? Or one

Lending a Personal Touch.
If the intense personal touch is desired,
home designed gifts may be
made. A wide hat basket, painted or
dyed at home, together with a stout
pair of gardener's shears, and a pair
of garden gloves will be appropriate.
There are no handler small tools for
the garden than a steel-tined kitchen
fork, and long tin spoon. Two such
'orks, one spoon, and a small watering
pot, the sprinkler and t!-? fork and
the spoon handles to be painted a gay
favorite color, would make a set both
useful and acceptable.
Another home made gift might be
a dozen round stakes a foot long, and
a dozen flat ones, four inches iong, all
painted a pleasant gay green. The
first would be used to tie up budding
plants, while the others could have
pasted on them, the names of seeds
sown and would be. used as markers
A still different type of gift might
consist of colored prints old gardens
designed for framing, or, what would
also please a zealous gardener a scraphook
for garden snap shots and treas
ured newspaper clippings on such information
as most appeals to the recipient's
heart.

Beating the Boss at His Own Game.
?East African superstition and ingenuity
arc amusingly illustrated in an
incident related by the German colonel,
Dr. E. Nigmann, in his memoirs of the
days when he was in charge of colonial
administration in that part of the
world.
One of his most reliable aides, he
says, was a native lieutenant-colonel
who had lost an eye during one of
the local expeditions, and wore a

the building, he took out the glass

announced to the workers: "Look
liere, my men. I must go row, but I
im leaving my eye to keep tab on you
and to see that you keep working

self-satisfaction that he reurned
to find his gang hard at work.
Next day the lieutenant colonel, had
