Have Tree Base
Stand In Water
Christmas trees, like flowers, will
respond to being kept with the base
in the water. Here are two simple
things to do if you want your tree
to stay green and fresh.
Buy a tree which has been cut as
recently as possible.
Cut off fie end of the trunk diag
onally, at least one inch above the
original cut. This will expose a
moist surface which will absorb wa
ter. Stand the trunk of the tree in
water at once, and, if it is not to be
taken into the house for several
days, keep it in a cool place.

UNIQUE CHRISTMAS TREE . . . Just one sUr and the proper
window lighting creates this picture on the side of a Minneapolis,
Minn., office building. The tree is over twenty floors high.
HIS has been a good year for us all
and for our part, we don’t think it would he
Christinas if we didn’t in some measure share with
you the feeling of satisfaction we experience when
we review the accomplishments that loyalty and
conscientious effort have made possible.
