MIRTH ALSO
Fail not to call to mind, in the course of the
twenty-fifth of this month, that the Divinest
Heart that ever walked the earth was born on this
day, and then smile and enjoy yourselves for the
rest of it; for mirth is also of Heaven’s making.
—Leigh Hunt in Good Housekeeping

Fail not to call to mind these Christmas dont’s
so that the mirth of this day shall not be turned
to sorrow.
Don’t place your tree near sources of heat.
Don’t forget to keep the base of your tree in
water.
Don’t use flammable tree decorations.
Don’t use defective lighting equipment.
Don’t permit smoking near your tree
Don’t overload your electrical outlets.
Don’t run electric trains around the base of the
tree.
Don’t let the lights burn too long at a stretch.
Don’t allow gift wrappings to accumulate.
Don’t forget to check the needles on your tree
daily.
Don’t forget the safest method of disposing of
your tree is through your trash collector.

YOUR OWN.
