way spruce is very well
shaped, has good color and
is perhaps your best buy.
Its one falling is that is sheds
its needles rather quickly.
/ Atty of the long needle
pines such as the balsam fir
& douglas Br, last much
longer but are more ex-

Select the tree that has
pyramidal shape, branches

NOT A MUST
Prepare a special gift for a
"stranger!" With so many peo-
ple to remember, we have a list
of relatives and friends we
"must” give presents to. This
year let’s select an "extra” gift
and contribute it to an organi-
zation which takes on the task
of helping less fortunate have
something of Christmas.

"NACIMENTOS”
In Spain the Nativity scene
is so popular that, vendors set
up stands before the holiday.
They offer colorful clay, wood
and cardboard figures which
are arranged into Nativity
scenes, known locally as
"Belenes" or " Nacimientos".
In some villages it is custom
to award a prize for the best
arrangement of a Belenes.
A small carved figure of the
Madonna and Child is the
proud possession of the Bene-
dictine Monastery of Mon-
sterrat near Barcelona. It is.
believed that it was carved by)
St. Luke and brought to Spain
by St. Peter in 30 A D.

And it came to pats in these days, that there went out a
■decree from Caesar Augustus, that all the world should be
taxed. (And this taxing was first made whim Cyrenius was
Governor of Syria.) '
And all went to be taxed, everyone into his own city. And
Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Naxareth,
into Judaea, unto the city of David, which is called Bethlehem;
(because he was of the house and lineage of David;) to be
taxed with Mary his espoused wife, being areat with child.
And so it was, that, while they were there, the daus were ac-
complished that she should be delivered. And she brought
forth her first bom So w, and wrapped him in swaddlmg
clothes, and laid Him in a manger; because there was no
room for them in the inn.
And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in
the field, keeping watch over their flock by night. And, lo, the
angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord
shone round about them. Fear not: for, behold, I bring yOu
good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. .
Outdoor Shrubs
For Decorations
. . ■. '
Many trees and shrubs, per-
haps some in your own yard,
produce attractive foliage suit-
able for holiday decorations.
- Some can be brought in the
home for trim, others can be
decorated for outside.
Foliage plants include Mag-
nolia, pine, hemlock, Chinese
fir, cryptomeria, pittosporium
and aucuba gold dust
Popular shrubs include
Carolberry, Snowberry, vari- •
eties of roses, such as Rose
Multifora, also many assort-
ments of Viburnums" and
, Euonymus.
American holly is best
known, but there are others,
such as Yaupon, Deciduous
holly, Chinese holly and f
English holly. rde
Try decorating any one of
. these that you have in your
yard. Bring some in your -
house, perhaps an assortment
of branches, or brighten up
your yard with lights on
shrubs.
