American glass manufacturers, who had never botlvrvd with those prod ugts before, turned part of their facilities over to making the pretty gewgaws. Mechanical methods were soon developed that could blow as many ornaments in an hour as a European glassblower could make in a month. Thus modern ellieien-cmay doom this picturesque little industry, carried on in the mountainous towns of eastern Europe. Ornament making is a typical "cottage industry" in the little villages that cling to the steep mountainsides. Families specialize in certain shapes and designs, patterns that may date back for hundreds of years unchanged. The father, using a bunsen burner, carefully blows the thin glass tubing to the desired shape, with the aid of an iron mold. His son acting as mold boy, removes the hot ornament to a cooling table. Next the mother silvers the inside, and finally the daughter applies paint and perhaps decorative designs. A (UTAH) PRESS, FRIDAY.

Christmas trees are growing on the wooded rolling acres of the Roosevelt estate at Hyde Park, N. Y. Developed ai a result of a hobby which occupied much of the late Pre. Franklin D. Roosevelt's spare time, the groves of Yule trees now are scattered on odd patches and parcels of land throughout the estate. The trees, about 270,000 In num ber, are principally of Norway spruce, ,whlte spruce and Douglas fir, with a few balsams also included. Although the Iree growing wai a hobby with the late president, he insisted that the project pay its own way. Consequently about 2,000 to 3,000 trees are marketed every season. Christina Provo.

Besides preserving the foliage, the waterglass spray adds to the decorative effect of the spruce by leaving a slight silver sheen to the leaves. The green of the needle-likwaterglass also has been found to be a good fire retardant. The college found that the shedding of spruce leaves also can be retarded by placing the base of the tree in a bucket of moist earth, peat moss or water.
