Announce- ment was k iade ot the next regular meeting of the Club December 20th when a program of Christmas mu- sic will be given. That date Is also the deadline for gifts of Christmas greens for shut-ins which are to be left with Miss Crowell. The origin of the use of candles at Christmas was read by Mrs. Er- nest B. Fritze, who opened the dis- cussion of Christmas decorations. The story Is that a poor peasant trudging home Christmas Eve de- cided to place a candle In the win- dow to light the way of Mary and Joseph. Having done this, he left his door unlatched as an invitation to travelers to come in and warm themselves. The speaker said she considered white candles more ef- fective than red, and demonstrated how to make inexpensive holders from the tops of tin cans. She also demonstrated a mantel arrange- ment using cedar and suggested clusters of bright berries, oak ap- ples or lichens for the joining in the center. She then spoke of the four vari- eties of prince's pine on the Cape and showed the "baby " of the first year which should not be picked, the "second year" which distributes its pollen, and the "third year" hav- ing a dead blossom, adding that In the fifth year the pine dies com- pletely. There are two varieties of ground pine which she uses for roping. In demonstrating a simple cen- terpiece which is very effective the speaker used a potato with a flat bottom. In this she punched holes in which she inserted a background of yew and then filled in with prince's pine, holly, red berries and bayberry, stating that the last is a "must" to set off the arrange- ment. Two other simple centerpieces were shown by Mrs. Raymond S. Person, who used "material at hand." A cutting board was used as the base for one and to this she secured a pasteboard tube length- wise in which she cut holes to hold three candles. She surrounded this with arbor vitae with its seed pods, and inkberry, for elongation , and pine cones for emphasis. Small Santa Clauses and reindeer were added. Her second demonstration con- sisted of natural pine cones, Ink- berry, barberry and holly. This was surrounded by corsages tied with red ribbon. When these were re- moved the centerpiece WQB left in- tact. An Interesting windowsil l ar- rangement for birds showed pine boughs and bayberry Joined with pine cones to which had been added peanut butter and suet. This should be nailed to the outside sill. A door spray was then shown. Foundation was pine boughs with Santa's red boots as the center of interest. To complete this she added pine cones, small tinsel balls and a splashing red ribbon bow.
