Town And Country Garden Club
A Year-Round Christmas Gift
Want a Christmas gift idea
that will delight several
people on your list, give plea
sure all year round, and flt
snugly into a wide range of
Christmas budgets?
Town & Country Garden
Club suggests that you try
giving a live plant. The ama
teur gardener, the college girl
away from home, the bride
decorating her first home,
and many others who love a
touch of green during winter
months will appreciate your
thoughtfulness.
Be careful to select a plant
which will not require ela
borate attention or a careful
ly controlled greenhouse set
ting. A timely choice is the
Holly Fern, which grows well
without a moist atmosphere
or much heat. It has glassy,
leathery leaves, and needs
only to be watered regularly,
to be given an occasional bit
of fertilizer, and to be kept
away from the sun. This little
touch of care will yield a
graceful, decorative plant.
The Hydrangea is another
plant which thrives in the
house, requiring little sun.
Sights On Safety
by ?L Public Information Offic*
Christmas: Don't' Make It Your "Last" Holiday
Millions of Americans are
soon to begin their annual pur
chases of tree-trimming and
decorative materials. Howev
er, the prevailing holiday at
mosphere always overshadows
one essential aspect of a com
pletely merry Christmas: elec
trical safety
At no other time of the year
are as many potentially haz
ardous electrical fixtures and ,
?flammable materials used in
the home. Therefore, at nd
other time of the year do as
many people leave themselves
so susceptible to open disas
ter, whether it be loss of life
or property
As a public service, l/ftder
kwrlters' Laboratories, a not
j fbc.-proflt organization testing
for public safety, would like
to offete^tlrt} following safety
suggestiorts in order that you
may have a more complete
holiday seasonX
? Don't overload circuits.
?Don't worlt on light strings
while plug is still connected.
? Don't stretch string lights
or extension wiring.
?Don't use string lights or
extensions outdoors unless
the attached label specifies
J you may do so. *
?Don't, use flood lights on or
near flammable material.
?Don't place electrical fix
tures within a child's acces
sibility.
? Do buy only UL labeled
string lights and cords. .
? Do inspect all wiring Insula
tion for possible deteriora
tion, especially if It has been
stored for an indefinite per
iod.
?Do use rubber light socket
gaakets where provided and
replace if needed.
?Do make certain lampf at*
not loose ip their sockrts
? Do tine UL Lifted, artificial
trm whfrrvfr available.
While not seeking to mini
mise the importance of any of
the above point*, perhaps two
should be stressed: overloads
and physical Inspections.
Overloads are primarily cre
ated by placing more current
on a wire than It can handle
but not enough to cause a fuse
to blow At Christmas this Is
usually due to placement of
too many bulbs on a single
extension cord. Result over
heating, melting Insulation;
exposed wire; shock, electro
cution or (Ire Hence, always
look for the capability of the
wiring supplying the lighting.
Examination of Insulation U
a minor task but one of major
I .Importance Wiring that has
been ptored in attics or eel
lars for a long period of time
can become vulnerable to the
elements. Consequently, vary
ing temperatures can easily
affect the insulation to the
point of being incapable of
serving its protective purpose.
If you will attempt to fol
low the Do's and Don'ts we
have given, vou'll certainly
make your "Christmas merry
and. more important, pafer
plenty of water (while flower
ing), and a dose of fertilizer
once a week. After its flower
ing period, however, the
Hydrangea'! branches should
be cut back, and the plant
itaelf should be put in a larger
pot, in a mixture of leaf
mould and heavy loam with
well-rotted manure added.
During the summer, it may be
put out of doors.
A relative of the popular
Poinsettia (Euphorbia pul
cherrima), the Crown of
Thorns (Euphorbia splen
dens). produces flowers for
months on end. It bears little
resemblance to its Christmasy
cousin, however. The branch
ing stem is covered with long,
pointed, dark brown thorifi,
while the small, light green
leaves grow mainly towards
the tips. The flowers develop
between the new leaves and
have sticky litjle stalks and
bright red bracts. The Crown
of Thorns likes a sunny spot
and spare amounts of water
in the winter.
Since florists carry a var
iety of green and flowering
potted plants, even shopping
for this gift can be fun. What
ever your choice, be ?
thoughtful giver: find out
from your florist or the gar
dening lection of your library
what the proper care for the
plant is. Include theae instruc
tions with your gift and let it
keep giving all year long.
Futile
"Do you know that your
wife is going about tiding
everybody that yoo cant
keep her in clothes?"
"That's nothing. I bought
her a home and I can't keep
her in that either."
Trouble
"My fiancee is terribly
deaf, and this has got me in
awful trouble." ,
"How's that?"
"Well, I had to yell ^
loudly when I proposed to"
'her that the woman living in
the flat above has sued me for
breach of promise."
When you find yoti cannot
afford something, the best
thing to do is do without it.,
