-. Church, around the Corner
and Trinity Church, both in
New York City, and West-
minster Abbey in London are
pictured on cards dated
around 1925 and now in the
Norcross historical collection.
The oldest of these church
buildings is Westminster Ab-
bey, a national shrine and
the Mother Church of the
Commonwealth of Great
Britain.
In 1966 the Abbey cele-
brated its 900th anniversary,

which retain their needles two to
three weeks indoors. The spruce
is also popular, even though it
tends to shed needles in- a warm
room. Scotch and Southern pines
are favored in some sections of
the country because of their long,
soft needles.
Hemlock and Juniper are fine
as Christmas greenery,; but do
not make ideal indoor trees
