BEST WAY TOPUTOP A CHRISTMAS TREE T HE best and easiest way to put | up a Cbclstimia tree baa never ‘ been puteuted or publlshed-in fact. It is *sp simple that It could not be patented. Having failed one Christ­ mas eve to provide a suitable foot or base for the family tree, necessity com­ pelled me to invent one. because the two youngest memiirs of the family would not bear of C utstmas without a tree. - So I sawed the butt, of the tree square, then .trimmed off a few of the lowest branches and set the tree in a good steed stone jar. The Jar was then Oiled with stones, 'pebbles, pieces of brick and coal, All this material was packed down flrmly and the position of the tree so adjusted that it stood per­ fectly straight. When the tree was in position little Grotel had $ happy thought f‘Let ps give the tree spine water,” she said, “Just ns if it were a big flower.'* And we filled tbe Jar with water. Then we covered the stones with bits of sli­ ver tinsel and artificial snow, and how our tree looked as i f it was actually growiug In a big Jar. From time to time, as the water was drawn up by*the tree, we refilled tbie Jar, and the' result was that we kept our tree grhen .and fresh for a month. Since that year opr Christmas tree is always put up in that way. and we can keep it as tong as we wish, A tin' pail, a tub or any deep vessel can be used to take the place of'the stone Jar, and pieces of coat or coke can be used instend of atpnee to hold the tree In place ’ * ** ** * * *& * * * ********** **% Because It’s Chris’mus w * mmimi ES 1 because It’s GhVTa'mus I so smilin' on my way, An* Jos’ because' It’s Chrls'cnus i ; ■ t am klndljMlke an* gay.

Howie, tUe well known Palestine missionary, de scribes a Christmas celebration at midnight tn a mountain village in Syria: ‘'From different directions men, worn en and children bearing their dickering band lanterns wound their way through tbe muddy, slushy, crooked and dark- lanes under tbe falling sleet and over a thin layer of snow already on the ground. Men and boys entered by a huge door In the middle of the south wall* and occupied the body -of the cbtirch; women and girls ehtered by another south door and stationed them •elves In the western division of the Immense building, which Is screened from the other divisions by Wooden 1st tlcework. AH stood erect, motionless, in the cold, comfortless and very dimly Mgbted and too airy building. ""“A few had nmbreltas. but water­ proofs were unknown, nnd consequent ly many of them mast have stood in partly wet clothes. The question did occur to me at the time as to whether roahy British people Could be drawn uut of their beds,, out of their homes, t t that hour of night in that kind of weather, fasting, to attend Christmas tervlce amid such dismal, comfortless jurroundlhgs.”—Tlt-BltS.
