SIMPLE DECO/RATIONS Cut Christmas Costs On Gadgets, Gimmicks By GISELLE MATHERS Every Christnias that comes along seems to bring with it a galaxy of new ideas in Yuletide decorating. The traditional Symbols of the Christmas tree, holly and mistle- toe, 'have been almost over- shadowed by every type of glit- ter 'and gimmick ranging from aluminum Christmas tree s, fibreglass lights, and elaborate flower and tinsel table decora- tions to model churches that play Christmas carols. Surrounued by such a confus- ing array of decorating ideas, it is not surprising that many homes look like overfastooned Christmas trees, a hodge-podge of colored lights, silvery baubles and evergreen wreaths. The keyword to Christmas decorating is simplicity. Choose a theme and stick to it. Don't be tempted by colorful gadgets that will clutter and clash with your decorating scheme. With a little effort and imagination you can have an attractive and tasteful Christmas decor.

Commercially made table decorations are expensive, but it's fun—and cheaper—to create your own Don't buy an ill -matched col- lection of tinsel sprays, syn- thetic flowers and elaborate candles but concentrate on a more natural theme. A well -shaped piece of silver birch provides an attractive base for pine cones, sprigs of Christmas evergreens and one or two silver;, leaves and balls that can be -bought cheaply at a chain store. A couple of plain red candles fitted into drilled holes in the wood will provide contrast with the evergreens and a soft glow to show off your best silver and glassware. Christmas wouldn't be com- plete without a piece of mistle- toe but there are more' subtle ways of displaying it than from a string attached to the light fixture: Turn it, instead into a hang- ing decoration for the centre of CORSETTIER Bras, Girdles, Corsets and Support Garments TO FIT ALL FIGURES At Reasonable Prices Mrs. J.
