But Ml‘. Hill never around to thc discussion with his boy. It must be admitted he was somewhat nervous about broaching the subject; he was, like his wife, ‘also a trifle wistful when he realized that still another child Wu about to be disillusioned.

Masses of flowers are ready for Christmas and Yuletide festivities. Hostesscs can have their choice and will find practically anything‘ they want in the way o1 bloom_ and color to suit their taste without taking the season much into con- sideration. if real flowers are be- yond the reach ofnmawur decor- ators artificial onesare so well made now that under certain light- ing it is scarcely possible to detect the difference. They are some- times even mixed successfully with real flowers. -

hostesses who are planning par- ties will welcome suggestions and ideas about using flowers for table decoration. Fine linen is revived for the dinner table with lace 1!‘.- sets demands the best attention for the decoration that ‘gill make the table spread for guests a delight. for the eye. Miniature shrubs and plants as well as trees are liked. Canad- ian shops have a wonderful array of new receptacles in glass, porcelain and metal of which choice can be made to add beauty and distinction to the whole effect of the table.

Individual flower receptacles are fashionable and some h- teses like to place one before each guest. Then there is the single bloom often put beside the service for each person. What a chance for a. clever hostess to look up the meaning of ﬂowers and trees. She can express some special wish to each one of her guests if she takes the trouble to give just. that; novel individual touch to her decoration.

Holly is the emblem of’ the sea- son and is always introduced freely into any decorative scheme. "Fore- sight" is the inner meaning of those sparkling red berries among dark green leaves. What better wish could be conveyed for 1941 than that every woman could have the foresight required to meet pre- sent day circumstances.

Our Christmas Story

(By MANFRED HASTINGS)

Naturally, there were many au- perstitions associated with the anci- ent pile. Mast of these —t,he harm- less and interesting ones, at least —»\'G1‘€ still practiced.

One oi the most popular had to do with Christmas.

in the irotit ball of the Hill hoine, stood an old grandfather clock. 1t had been there, so it seemed, fur so long that it now lookcu as though it had been built into the house.

For many years, a small bronze plaque, unuouotcoly conceived and lllsitliiﬁfl by one o. the liill ances- tors ivitli a vlciv to helping inain- tain discipline among tiie children before Cliristinus festivities began, init- inirigtlco the lnwny" branches of the Ilill family LICK}. Nor, ivllh the pissing c; tlic years, had ‘it lost any o its G1ICC.I\'CIIC.$.>. Briefly", anti succinctly, it said:

should this ancient clock deceive, and fall to cliitne on Christmas

Eve, Those uiicse ancient face perceive, Will not from Santa Clause re- ccive

Ever since childliocti Johnny and his pirciits and la-Lcl" his brtnhel" and sister hlici rarely‘ failed to list- cn until bedtime for the regular booming chime of the old clock. It tvas not only‘ a custrm but a super- stition tizat could ill afford to be ncgiecieri. And not un'il its time had resounded throughout the house hour after hour until bed- time did the children retire. with easy hearts

Nor had it. ever failed them.

But. this Chirstmas, as we have said, Johnny decided lo take inat- ters into his own hands. In the early hours of Christmas morning, W1l110 all slept soundly, he crept silently down the stairs and stood before the clock. His hands trem- bled as he opened the glass door In a few seconds —he had studied thc workings of the clock careful- ly for sonic days —he had adjusted the chimes so they would not sound again tlia-t day

Strangely enough in view of the part it had played in all their lives for so many years, no one of the family noticed the sudden silence at first. But later in the morning. Mrs. Hill felt something was wrong and after a considerable amount of searching on her part she located the source of the trouble.

At first, she was loath to men- tion the fact. But. after a. time she could not fall to notice an equally sudden change in Johnny and she gathered that he knew a great deal more about. the matter than he re- tended. Besides she realized hat some one else was certain to ob- serve tliat the clock hold stopped chiming so she drew her family's attention to it. The ohildmn natur- ally were very upset but Johnny steadfastly refused to place any stock in the phenomen . '

She left matters a: they stood. comforting the younger children as beat she could, Johnny. she observed became l. little frightened as the day and early evening wore on but still he refused to give in. He had been hurt by his father's neglect and refused to admit he had tamp- ered with the clock.

It was with an uneoq heart that ho climbed the dark stain to hi: bed. The silence in the home had now become almost overpowering. But finally he fell into a troubled sleep and. wakenod to find that an- other mi: Christmas Day had dawn . But the enormity of his crime increased and gnawed at hi: heart so, that it was with trepida- tion that he descended to obey the lummons to breakfast.

Following the quiet. taut moming meal, they proceeded to the living- room when a huge Christmas time had sprung up overnight. All man- rior of interesting pan-och wen laid out beneath lit.

chime had been stooped thus pre- cluding a. visit from Bantu. Claus. Yet the present: were than. "Bee,"

Parties and celebrations are in the limelight, bringing with them their accom- paniment of music. laughter and games. At this time the spirit of carnival reigns; he is of course, the patron of all the pranks and tricks which are played with such gusto at. Christmas time. The following games and puzzles have his approval and. as you may wish to tly them. let's begin with

THE LUCKY SPIDER.

This makes an amusing guessing competition, a cork and some pins being the only articles required. Stick the pins into the cork at all angles. and tie a. length of cotton round the middle so that the "spid- er’ hangs from its thread. ‘The make-believe insect is dangled in front of the guests, and they are ask- ed to state how many legs they think it has. Their guesses are put. down on a clip of paper and later the pins are taken out of the cork andcounted. .

‘The person who has guessed the corlect or nearest number can be awarded a small prize.

Mr. Turkey Speaks Up

(A FOWL SOLILIQUY)

“Dont imagine for one moment," Mr. tCoboitri ‘turkey admonish-ad LDC when I interviewed him regard- ing his vicws on Christmas and his p.o.iablc intimate association with the usual festivities "Don't imagine ior one moment," he repeated with emphasis, "that I was or that I am till-aid ol my approaching fate. I've been much too observant of the liininaries during recent months for that."

But he trembled slightly as he spoke. And in order to cover up the movement which he attributed to tlie cold, he immediately took a quick strut about the barnyard and gazed clown with anger not uri- mixcd with hauteur upon two hens who by mischance crossed his legal path. It was a gesture that was patently nothing more than sheer bravado and one that failed to fool me. But I looked upon him with renewed interest and respect.

"Yes," he added when he stood before me once more, “I've un- doubtedly escaped this season -I didn't get fat. enough for them-but I can't. hold out another year, what with another Thanksgiving and Christmas already looming ahead. But I'm prepared. I've made my

“It's been very difficult for me though." he admitted. “My mother and father were taken from mo at a very tender age and I have been forced by necessity to care for my-

self and learn the facts of life from poi

others who were perhaps lean well qualified as instructors on such l complex and vital subject.
