Exercise Care in
Outdoor Decorations
If you light an outdoor tree, do it
with care and caution.
Spruce, firs and pines, when not
too large, are ideal for outdooi
Yuletide display, but hemlock,
yew, boxwood and aborvitae are a
little more sensitive to the heat of
Christmas lights and their needles
may be scorched if caution is not
used.
Outdoor lights should always Oe
placed so they do not touch nee
dies. Bulbs of 15 wattage are sut
ficient. Use only weatherproof elec
trica) fixtures designed for out don
use. Check the position ot th*
lights each day and turn them ,.r
only at eventide. Be sure to tmr
them out before retiring

* Rose
The beautiful Christmas rose has
played its part in the many legends
associated with our Christmas ob
servance.
An early story tells of the young
shepherd girl who wept as she
watched the Wise Men on their
way to the Christ Child with rich
gifts when she had nothing to offer
as a present. An angel appeared
and asked the reason for her dis
tress. And suddenly the ground
was carpeted with shining white
flowers. The shepherdess gathered
some of the blossoms and took
them as her gift to the Christ
Child. When she presented her
gift, the Infant smiled, and as his
fingers touched the white flowers,
, the petals became tinged with
pink.
It Is also believed that the
Christmas rose helped popularize
the custom of gift giving at Christ
mas time. In the days of knight
hood it was custom to hang kissing
rings in the great halls. The rings
were decorated with mistletoe and
beneath them the young knights
and ladies would meet, each bring
ing Christmas roses to their secret
i love.
