In it place greens and Christmas balls to use as wall or door decoration. A three panel door looks pretty with greens attached to each sec tion. On top of these place glitter ing stars, angels or Santa Claus. The same kind of star which is used for the top of the tree can be placed against a wreath of ever green and used as a mantle or door decoration. A plain wall in the hall or living room? Hang wide strips of red or green felt down from the ceiling and pin Ihe Christmas cards on these. Let the youngsters make rings of different colored paper and overlap them into a long string. These will fill in spaces on the Christmas tree nicely. REV. ROBERT H. HARPER HIGHWAY MADNESS W ITH the building of new and better highways, widening and straightening existing routes, over-pass and under-pass, traffic circles ahd clover leaves, and the advertising of bigger and better cars with more horses under the hood have afflicted many Ameri cans with a highway madness worse than the mental ills cared for in nursing homes and asylums. All of which is bringing much con cern to highway authorities, moth ers and fathers, and citizens in general. Why we should want more horses under the hood when there is a sufficient number to split the road open at a hundred miles an hour and reach eternity in a moment of time is an enigma hard to unravel. A month ago the writer made a car trip of more than two hun dred miles and, after two days re turned to his home. At no time was there danger or doubt. The young person who went along to drive obeyed all the signs, on the highway and in the city we visit ed, and never exceeded the speed limit. I think of how much safer the highways and the street would be if the traffic laws were obeyed and every driver were considerate of the other fellow. . Pwt BanrJ« last Job as UN Mr. and Mrs. K. B.

A MATTER OF PRIDE By F. L Rowley M RS. EMILY TRISWELL had been graduated from Glen- bard College in New Hampshire. Now you might expect a fact or this nature to be overlooked in a thriving midwestem community *uch as Hillcrest—until you’ve met Mrs. Emily Triswell. Not that she specializes in blowing her own born; she delights rather in giving St an occasional toot. The PTA, the various women’s ;lubs, and on one occasion even the SPCA, had been subjected to vindy lectures by 'our distin guished guest, graduate of Glen- »ard College — that’s in New Hampshire, you know.* I’d been enjoying all this for years, mainly because I’d been able to dodge most at Emily’s de lightful meetings. Who—me? I’m George Triswell. Our family is rounded out by daughter Anna. One day Anna started things by announcing: “Mama, I’m going to Glenbard College. I want to be just like you/’ “Why?” I asked. “She should be proud to have a brainy daughter,” I said stoutly. Then I got an idea; if Anna were to break Emily’s record I might have less crowing to listen to—so I said: “Tell you what, Anna. Let’s write to Glenbard on the sly; at least we can find out what a fancy school like that charges these days.” Anna was all for it Emily was guest speaker at one at her end less meetings after supper, so An na and I had a good chance to send a letter off to Glenbard. Anna was as nervous as as a kitten until Saturday morning. Then the bomb burst! Emily was oh the porch gather ing in the mail Suddenly there was a snort like the noon whistle at the rubber works. Emily charged into the living room, her lips quivering. “Who wrote this letter to Glen bard?’’ she challenged. 1 looked guiltily at the letter Across die face of It were the purple words: NO SUCH OFFICE IN STATE NAMED. “We Just wanted to find out what the rates are,” I said timidly. "Funny it wasn’t delivered.” / Well, I never did see Emily in such a dither. As far as I could reason there hadn’t been much harm done; the thing hadn’t even been delivered. • “Gosh, don’t take it so hard, honey. Your mother will get over it. After all, Gleqbard didn’t even get the letter.” “That’s just it,” sobbed Anna. “All we’ve done is ruin mother’s big, beautiful dream. Ttyere isn’t— there never was—a Glenbard Col lege.” ^ Suddenly I realized how much Glenbard had meant to Emily. And we had taken it away from her. Anna started toward the kitchen. I caught her arm. "Don’t say any thing yet.'' We still have a chance. Let’s go see Bill Phelps, the print er. He has a sister in New Hamp shire. Maybe Bill could help us compose a letter—?” Three days later EmBy bounced into the living room bursting with happiness. Proudly she thrust a letter under my nose. The last paragraph read: '—since I*m a relatively new member of the faculty I regret to say that I don’t recall a Miss Em ily TriswelL As for your daugh ter’s joining us as she requests: please explain to her that it’s a physical impossibility. Gy waiting list is much too long now.* Cordially, Miss Beverly Parker The printed letter-head read: Glenbard College, Briar Gate, New Hampshire. ' Oddly enough. Bill Phelps’ sister lives in Briar Gate. One thing I like about Bill though— he ain’t the talkativd kind. And Emily? Sometimes she takes the letter out of her purse and stares at it, then hard at me and Anna. She asks no questions though. With her I guess you might say it’s a matter of pride.
