ONTARI; .BOTANICAL NOTES FOR DE- CEMBER Towards the end .of this month, Time crowned with supreme and. rad- iant content seems to pause in its mad career for a few short days of con- templation in the crystalline air of a glittering world. It was 1931S years ago in a Heaven pure and remote, crammed with pul- sating pin -points of light, that the large Star in the East shone with such magical -brilliance; when lol an extraordinary awe hushed the spirit of our troubled world to a sense of enchantment and miracle, 'charity and love. The busy world of today is grate- ful for the annual pause in honour of this sacred event as evinced by the universal spirit of peace, goodwill and joy. Those Yuletide symbols of benefic- ence --Christmas 'trees—soon to 'be- come fairy-like toadstones in glowing pageants sof jollity, stand like spark- ling .pyramids in a virgin -white dream -landscape. Young and old, rich and poor, .hale and sick are aglow with .warm anticipation of an .indefin- able, bejewelled Something which may be awaiting them on one of these trees. Now there ere Christmas trees— and Christmas trees! On the balsams the .cones stand proudly erect; the flattish leaves which, on many !branches, appear to be two -ranked, form apparently flat sprays. These leaves will stick tight even in the heat of the house. Spruce trees allow their cones to sroo,p as if ashamed of their objectionable habit of shedding their sharp, four-sided needles (which bristle out all round the 'branches) over the party -rug. But the needles will remain attached to twigs of Iieilbariain specimens if they are boiled in three-quarters of a gal- lon of water for half an hour to which 4h ,ounce of copper sulphate has been added. A's resonant .chimes merrily clash and clang in the freshness and rom- ance of Christmas 'Eve, 'churches are !filling with worshippers for the mid- night service of the Feast of Nativity, who will inhale with tingling remini- scence the rich fragrance of floral de- corations—the garlands of aromatic cedar are draped and 'festooned cin bold contrast with flaming poinset- tias, sweetly -scented roses and carna- tions. Plaintive and heart-searching carols melt into a 'dream deep and mellow as Time itself, The notes of the grand organ, which ,soar in tri- umphant melody, seem to promise a nobler living and glories yet to 'be; PAGE SEVEN indeed the very voice of Goodwill speaking to our hearts and souls, .the Christmas dinner tables, of the fortunate, are loaded with good cheer; mostly the produce ,of our vegetable friends. Many of us treasure ,lasting mem- tos of a happy tine like this, and Have provided such, es living plants. Seeds 'of the orange, grape -fruit, lemon, fag or date will .germinate and grow quite readily in the warmth of the house and live with reasonable care for many, years thus establishing a pleas- ing; evergreen, indoor garden. The fig will lose its leaves towards spring, :but ;will grow new ones when enjoy- ing.an outdoor summer vacation. The ,pineapple will add variety to this ex- otic garden if the rosette of leaves be potted .in sandy leaf -mould. As the calendar year draws to a close, !botanists will .hail one another with cordial !Christmas greetings. Garden, field attd forest are now desolate with the apparent death' of December; but there is no winter in the soul of the plant lover; only ser- enity and hope, as he recalls with su- preme gratitude a world of great sim- ple things where contentment meets him and takes him tenderly by the hand as he revels in the sweetly. *mystic notes .of the Pipes of 'Pan which evert the ribald bellow of an ugly ands ruthless reality can never, never subdue.—E.
