This was won by eight-year-old Jack. He hung a string of remarkably lifelike sausages upon the tree, as an offering to his mother. When the strings were untied half-adozen hemstitched 1 handke r c h i e f s tumbled out. Each #Y handkerchief had first been rolled in a small cardboard " onH than wrflnnpri ' *n mottled paper. A close second to Jack's was a fountain pen concealed in a candle made of tbin pasteboard wrapped in white tissue paper twisted to a point at the top to represent the wick and blackened with a drop of ink to show that the wick had been lighted. This was stuck into the kitchen candlestick before placing it under the tree where It presented a very realistic appear ance. A wrist watch was hidden in a bouquet of paper flowers.
