The story is that Martin Luther
created the first lighted! Christ-
mas tree- our most cherished
symbol of the Yule season next
to Santa Claus.
Looking out of a window on
Christmas Eve in a castle where
be was a guest, be saw the stars
shining brightly through tate
boughs of a giant fir tree. One
very bright star stood in the
firmament at the top of the
tree, So Luther chopped down
a small fir in a forest near the
castle and brought it inside. Ile
secured candles which he put on '
the. tree with the largest one
at the top --the Star of Bethlehen
Today, Christmas lighting is
part of our Canadian way of life
and we have a huge variety of
lighted decorations from which
to choose.
The modern trend! for Christ-
mas tree lighting is away front
the bright and somewhat garnish
effect when brilliant, clear
bulbs are used. TIie tendency
now is to use subdued "cool"
colours in the larger bulks.
Recently introduced are the
"midget" type lamps and these
have become enormously popu-
lar across Canada. These are
about, the size and shape of the
sharpened end of a lead pencil,
come in a full colour range and
give a beautiful effect on the
tree.
More and more homeowners
are using the new artificial trees.
These are most realistic looking.
They makevno muss of needles
and can be folded up and stored
for use year after year. Besides
coating in the natural green
they are available in a number
of pastel shades. They are made
from visca which is fireproof --
an added advantage.
And for the safety of your home
and family be sure that your
Christmas tree lights are equip-
ped with a safety fuse plug.
These strings have outlets at the
free end into which other strings
may be plugged and the safety
fuse also protects these.
