They say that one cup of sugar in a half gal- lon container of water will keep a tree greener, fresher and more safe. They recommend that afresh cut be made at the bottom of the trunk before the tree is put up. This allows the sugar solution to go up to the needles and prevents them from dry- ing and dropping. More water must be added to the container each day to replace that used up by the tree. A waterproof pad on the floor Will prevent marking. Poinsettias, considered to be the most popular Christmas floral gift, must be kept moist, away from drafts and in a good light. With this treatment a red poinsettia will bloom at least three weeks and some whit e ones may last Until Easter, one florist says. Cyclamen, another Christ- mas plant, will bloom all win- ter and revive the next year as well, if it is kept in a cool bright place.

Many have been pleased at the spirit and enthusiasm with which this venture has been received. "Where there is a good leader to promote the study the results have been gratifying. Some have said the study "The Word and the Way" has been difficult but we don't get any- thing worth while without work. We need to exercise our grey matter." "Moneywise we are very pleased both in the Presbyterial and in our local organization" said Mrs. Rowe. "We have met our allocation without difficul- ty.' "Looking back" reminisced the UCW leader "it has been a bit of a struggle but I'm con- fident we are on the way." Mrs. R. E. Russell, president of Main Street UCW since its nc eption, spoke quite confi- dently of the new set-up. "With us it works very well; although Mr, and Mrs. William W. Northcott, RR 1 Exeter, were taken by surprise Saturday evening when tit) relatives and friends gathered in their honor at SS 2 Hay on the occasion of their 40th wedding anniversary. The evening was spent in games and contests. Earl Campbell read an addrese and on behalf of the community Homer Russell and Lloyd Campbell presented the cele- brants with a mirror and lamp. Lunch was highlighted with a wedding cake suitably decorat- ed. Mr. and Mrs, Northcott, who was the former Violet Bieber of the community, since their marriage, have lived on the farm, Con. 2 Hay Township, where Mr. Northcott was born.

For some time before the UCW came into being women of James Street were functioning on the session and official board of the church, so little change in that respect was noticed. Miss Anne L Ward, secretary of the Board of Women, Toronto, says the most encouraging as- pect has been the way women have "entered into the wore as a whole. This doesn't mean to say we still haven't a long way to go," said Miss Ward, "but certainly more women than ever are learning about the whole program of the church and are supporting it; noticeable also is the acceptance of women by congregations as members of Session, Official Boards and committees of stewards." Membership in the new orga- nization includes many younger women, and women who have never taken office before, Miss Ward stated, "They have been willing to prepare for and give leadership, and have attended workshops held across Canada for specific training." Conferences with inspira- tional themes have been held in Keswick and Ivy Lea in Ontario and at the Fine Arts School in Banff, according to Miss Ward. "We are also trying to have women take an increasing in- terest in welfare, social and economic affairs and interna- tional events" she said. "We initiated this year a United Nations seminar in New York in which 30 women from across Canada joined with women in the United States in a visit to the United Nations where they lis- tened to debates and discussed issues coming before the UN." For the first time, women have realized that they are a part--and an important one--of the life of the church," wrote one leader after the UCW came into being. "This opens new horizons to them as well as strengthening the work of the Church in Canada." Perhaps that is the best sum- mary of the UCW which can be given on its second birthday. The first eleven elected con- ference presidents of UCW groups will assemble in Toron- to, January '7 and 8, to confer with the executive of the Board of Women to evaluate the work done in the past two years and chart a course for the imme- diate future.

But for the more than 260,000 membersof United Church Women, it's a second birthday, For nearly 37 years women of the United Church of Canada had done their work in separate gr oups--The Woman's mis- sionary Society and The Wo man's Association. Two years ago they came together into one orgauization, the purpose of which was "to unite all women of the congregation for the total mission of the church and to provide a medium through which they may express their loyalty and devotion to Jesus Christ to Christian witness, study, fel- lowship and service." How has the new organization worked? Mrs. E. T. Rowe, Hen- sail, sectional vice-president for South Huron of Huron Pres- byterial, and president of Hen- sail UCW for the past two years, in reviewing the first two years says "I feel quite convinced that the UCW is going to go alead--I feel we are getting the spirit of things." She further stated that "we haven't quite as many members this year as at first but I think some joined the first year just out of curiosity. We were all, both officers and members, somewhat uncertain about pro- cedures and things did not go as smoothly as they might and we may have lost a few members. CWL recognizes UN declaration The Precious Blood CWL meeting was held in the school Monday evening with Father Kelly and 19 members present.

Mrs. Russell said the women had not invaded the men's groups of the church very much --the UCW president and the two unit presidents were automati- cally accepted on the official board. Mrs. Russell also noted that greater increase in interest meant increased givings and there has been no difficulty in reaching allocations.
