We like to look back over the past twelve months, remembering all the fine things that have been our good fortune. It's pleasant to review the associations we have had with our friends—to find comfort in the knowledge that in lasting friendships come the joys of good living. It's good to say "Merry Christmas"— it’s satisfying to hear our friends say "Merry Christmas.” Christmas Tree And Decorations Are Fire Hazard Fire hazards lurk in your Christ- 1 ■ mas tree and in the decorations j that make it gay.

But the fire hazard grows after i that. i So the best procedure is to bring in a fresh tree as short a time be fore Christmas as possible, and re move it as soon afterwards as you can. Be careful in placing your tree in the home. Set it well away from stoves, radiators and other sources of heat. Above all, when you smoke, keep away from the tree. Use Special Safeguards. If you want to keep your tree from a week or more before Christ mas until after New Year’s day, special safeguards are necessary. One of these is to see that the base of the tree stand# in a con- ■ Y . . ~V -* J curvJL K :y{7 : QLl- Ofaux.

Cut off the base of the tree at an angle at least 1 inch above the original cut and see that the water level is always kept above the cut. This helps keep the tree fresh and reduces the chances of fire. Another and important safeguard is to use a chemical fiameprooflng solution. Dissolve one pound of sodium- chloride in one and one-half pints of water. That will take care of a tree that weighs approxi mately four pounds. If the tree weighs eight pounds, use two pounds of chemical and three pints of water. Put the solution in the container in which the tree stands. Let the tree soak up as much of the chemi cal solution as possible. In case cal cium chloride is not available, am monium sulfate will be highly satis factory.

To serve him whole, the bird was flayed—skin and feathers together; care was taken to leave the head £ j attached to the skin and the neck bone unbroken. Having been roasted and allowed to cool, the peacock was wrapped in his feathers and propped upon a tray—as he was wont to sit when alive, showing off his magnificent tail; a sponge, saturated with spir its, was placed in his gilded beak and lighted as the bird was being served—but for all his good looks, the peacock was cold and dry when eaten.

Soap Flakes May Be Used As Snow on Christmas Tree The final step In trimming the Christmas tree is frosting it with fluffy snow. There are a number of ways of doing this, but a simple and popular one uses ordinary soap flakes. Any homemaker can produce all the snow she wants in a short time and it won’t melt, either, if it is properly concocted. Here’s the way to make it; Use three or four cups of soap flakes to one cup of warm water. Beat in an electric beater or very vigorously with a hand beater, until it is very smooth and fluffy. Then spread it immediately over the branches of the tree, scattering it with the hands. If you want the snow to sparkle, quickly spread on some artificial glistening snow. Use as much soap gnow as you like.
