PAGE SIX Many Wrinkles In Christmas Cards WASHINGTON IP— Maybe you have poke;! fiin at some of Iru* corny verses on Christmas cards. Well, you hereby are invited to try your own hand at verse writing and. for once get away from the plain old Merry Christmas and Happy New Year." It'll be your own creation and you can make it rhyme or no. according to the mood. Perhaps you would care for something really inspiring like a plain old. ''Hello, mom.” Whatever you come up with, one of the major greeting card manu facturers will permit its use on the cards you order this year—for a little something extra on the price tag, of course. Or, if you are a little awkward at making things rhyme, but still are a little choosy of the sentiment your cards express, you can make your choice from six ready-written greetings. The company will print your choice and you can let the folks believe it is vour very own. PAINTINGS, TOO A number c f screen stars who consider themselves Sunday paint ers have their choice canvasses reproduced on Christmas cards.

(IP> Vernon Buriison and Frank Pitkin, exten sion foresters and nurserymen for the University of Idaho, went on their annual checking tour last summer and found that some of the trees they had set out a year ago were not doing so well. The reason was weeds, the com mon type that grow along the road sides and in every garden. The weeds can keep potentially mighty forest trees from growing tail ! enough to shade a child. “In fact.” Buriison said, “we found that some of the trees had grown little if any from the time they left the university nursery as seedlings. We had to part the weeds to find them at all.” NEW YEAR’S DANCE Lillington’s junior Club will sponsor a formal dance on New Year’s Eve at the Community Cen ter.
