' Although there are many complete decora- tive items in the stores, some folks like to make.'itheir own because of the fun involved. One idea you can copy is a miniature Christmas tree for the front win- dow or door. You will need a wire coat hedger, 15 -inch piece of 12 -inch chicken wire, about' 40 sprigs of spruce, green string, 2 yards of tinsel or tinfoil strips and a few novelties. Now bend the hanger into a fire tree shape, using the handle as a base, Cover frame firmly with chicken wire. Begin the tree by using three short sprigs to form the peek; then use two long sprigs one on either side to form the two low- est boughs. Now fill in the tree, slightly overlapping each sprig. Secure any loose pieces with sticky tape and hang from the window catch or a door knocker. You are now ready to trim the tree with tinsel, star and orna- ments. - Take A Tip 1. Keep holly where it's cool until decorations are being arranged. 2. Never arrange fir boughs over the mantle if the fireplace is to be used for heating. 3. Put lighted candles in a place where a draught will not carry the flame to curtains or other materials. 4. Tie red or green ribbon in bows for dressing up boughs, tiny reindeer, flower vases, serviette rings and such. 5. Make the plate of sliced Christ- mas cake festive by tucking a sprig of holly and a few cran- berries in the centre. 6. A candle with a sprig of green tueked.in the holder and placed on the tea or coffee tray brings out the shine on the china and silver. 7. Christmas seals stuck on tum- blers umblers or goblets will remain during the holiday season when edges are varnished with clear nail polish. 8. An old favourite dcoration is popcorn balls tied in coloured cellophane, Or, use red or green food colouring to give a var- iety.

Peel County went against the Canada Temperance Act. Many were disappointed. The advance of the liquor flood is cause for anxiety to all who have the best interests, of the com- munity at heart. No good will come from the opening of liquor outlets in Peel County. In Huron we are fortunate in being far re- moved from the big city; fort- unate also in being largely rural. From past experience we know that we are not safe from polit- ical trickery; On every count there is need for vigilance and steadfastness on the part of everyone who wants to keep this good county and its people and its children free from the men- ace of the liquor traffic.-ADVT.
