Mrs. Dwight Stroud, Mrs. Furman New Ideas Foster Spirit of Christmas At Christmas time ideas are more important than ever—amusing ideas to keep minds from too stem reali ties; clever ideas to make money saving a pleasure; ideas to stress the old, old Christmas spirit of joy and ssverence and gay family gath erings. Get the family into the spirit of an old-fashioned Christmas with all helping — “deck the hall with boughs of holly,” bring in the yule log. If you have no fireplace, then let the yule log become a center- piece decoration for the table. Use evergreens, red berries, pine cones, acorns for that home-made Christmassy look. Grandmother’s festoon of ^edar boughs tied with a big red bow still holds more.genuine C^istmas spirit than the most expensive artificial decorations. But if your family denmnds « change from the too-familiar, sug gest they invent decorations. May^ they want a red, vdiite and blue Christmas. Red bam paint and blu ing are still cheap. For packages, for mantelpiece*— think how many everyday things are already red, white or blue, or bow easily things may be enameled or dyed. Pajnt or dip pine cones, sticks and dsriE things in enamel or show card colors. Dye pipe^deanexs^ li$> tie fiufly feathers, dried grasses. A package with red, adiite and blue feathers tied in witti the bow, a Christmas tree decorated solely with balls of cot- Um, bright red, white and blue— they can’t be beat. Strew adiite and blue stars around; decorate with candy canes crossed saber- wise and tied with a big blue bow. Make huge imitatum candles of mailing tube or stove pipe or logs, covered as you ple^. They are fine for outside the door or by the fireplace. Whatever you do, hide your solem nity with old-fashioned simple gai ety .. . .-'make it a seriously im portant family Christmas! ^ Greenwood, and Joe Land of Buffalo.
