s Salem Garden Club Show Is Outstanding - For Filling Purposes Less Expensive Cookies Make Family Happy, Easy on the Family Cook By Lillie L. Madsen No more beautiful staging for a garden club event has ever been made in Salem than the Christ mas Greens show which opened Tuesday , at the Isaak Walton League hall at the end of Cottage street. The show will be open Wednesday from 10 a. m. to 10 E. m. No admission is charged ut a silver offering is accepted. The show is. sponsored by the Salem Garden club of which Mrs. Ben Maxwell is president. While there is a great variety of ideas for gay Chris tmases, as a whole there is a more serious note this year than formerly found in Salem garden shows. And while there is plenty of silver and gold .and other colors added, there Is 'also more of the natural green. '' Show goers, as they enter the hall, face the large brown and men wishing-well of the Salem Garden Council. At the left of the door Is the pine and bell ar rangement of the Keizer Garden club centering which is an orig lnal verse in keeping with the season, written by some of the Garden club members. To the right of the door Is madonna scene arranged by the independence Garden club. Man brin Gardens club and tha King wood Garden club add to tha Christmas feeling in tha entrance nail. In the main hall, too, natural greenery predominates. More than 14 garden clubs have ar rangements at the show. Among the outstanding arrangements in this group is the colorful setting Of the Little Garden club of Sa lem Heights. "Snow - covered" window sills added to the setting where warm red coloring was used throughout. Gardea Clubs Exhibit The entry, of the Friendly neignoors garden club was term ea among we -most useful" en tries. Here, moire than a score of Ideas for Christmas decorations, all in the form of Christmas trees, were displayed The entire west walTof the hall was arranged br the statin com. i mittee of which Miss Edith Schry- I ver was chairman. Garlands of green, door decorations svmboliz I lng the legend of food for all the animals and birds at the manger at the time of the birth of Christ, a child's mantel, depicting the Jolly Jingle family, are found in that section of the hall. Even Rudolph, the red-nosed reindeer was brought into the scene when Miss Schryver conceived the idea of lighting the huge elk's head which hangs over the mantel at the halL . A bazaar where wreaths, ma terials for wreaths, as well as a variety of other Christmas dec Orations and greens, are offered for sale, proved a ' busy place throughout Tuesday afternoon. The bazaar will be continued Wednesday.
