If your Christmas tree shed needles all over the living room last year, chances are you weren't careful enough in buying a "fresh" ' 111 .i.iii ssat- a- tree. Touch-typinwill help you pick a choicy tree. You can tell by the feel which trees are better able to withstand the hot siege indoors. If twigs and foliage aren't reasonably resilient or needles feel dry and crumbly, better pass up the tree. Chances are it will look like a hatraek before Christmas day. And if you're not quite sure by the touch method, bang the butt of the tree sharply on the floor. A shower of needles will tell you if the tree's drying out, even before you get it home. Of course, the way the tree looks is an important factor, but an attractive tree that will lose its beauty in short order is hardly a bargain. The ideal holiday tree boasts the traditional pyramid shape, with lush branches reaching to the base. The two ' favorites in the market places are Balsam fir and Norway spruce. The slower-growin- g Balsam fir is more expensive than the spruce, but it retains its beauty longer indoors. g We sincerely hope that your holidays will be happy and joyful . . . and that your ambitions and desires will find fulfillment in the new year.

Place them at right angles to each other and add a bell, ball ornament or sprig of mistletoe inside. Attach a bow at the bottom if you wish. Instead of embroidery hoops, you may use can rings painted with gilt or tempera paints. , Evergreen branches can be used in many ways. Have you ever tried covering the wood moulding about a door with them? Or bending a wire coat hanger into a circle and attaching greens to it to form a wreath? You can add ball ornaments or bright cranberries to brighten it a bit. Then how about decorating your windows and mirrors? Cotton, white spray paint or white paper snowflakes always look pretty. But if there's an artist in your family, why not have him paint a scene of a Jolly Santa on a window or mirror with tempera paints? ; ICj to warmly wish S.
