to rh Stofgrncm, Salem, Oregon. Friday. December 21, 18510 Interesting! Collection of Christmas Scenes Displayed at Croisan Creek Home Br ints. ciiet nelson tUtwiMi News Serrtee ROBERTS, Dec. 20 Christmas with the true meaning of joy, peace, fellowship and, love has come early to the Leon F. Frahm family who reside on Croisan Creek road. Their home has al ready been gladdened for the holidays- by 'beautiful Christmas scenes, both religious and in the theme of winter. Collecting interesting small fig ures animals, birds, trees, houses. angels, churches and farm build ings has been a hobby with Mrs. Frahm for fover 10 years. Each year her display grows and she adds another scene to be enjoyed by friends and neighbors during the Christmas holidays. On viewing her displays I re called to mind the beloved hymn "Be ThM, 0 Ged, exalted kigta. And aa Thy clary fills the sky. So let it be en earth displayed, Till Thou ; art here and new - obeyed." Making use of shelves in her large dining room window (pic tured herewith), Mrs. Frahm has a figure of Christ set in clouds of spun glass with six small angel figures composing an orchestra playing various instruments, and they might well be singing "Hark! The Herald Angels Sing, Glory to the - new born King. From their fluffy clouds they look down from the top shelf to the next one which is the sky scene with leaoing, life-like reindeer and sleigh made by Mrs. Frahm from pieces of sterifoam. The sleigh is adorned by clear glass marbles giving a touch of fairy jewels, "and over the house-tops his coursers they flew, with a sleigh full of toys and Santa Claus too" On the lower shelf is the quiet; peaceful scene of homes, gaily lighted, nestled. in soft snow and flanked on either end by churches. Trees made from dried, wild as paragus fern, clever substitutes for our common shade trees naked of leaves In winter, fir trees, shrubbery, fawns, bunnies, a lit tle old owl, and other miniature figures complete the scene. A - beautiful scene of a snow white cross nd a guardian angel made from sterifoam, interspersed with cold -metallic fringing, re flects purity in to the holy Virgin Mother and Christ child figurine. A group of six exquisitely dressed story-book dolls as angels' with small books in their hands also are included. More of the beauti- fully-gowned dolls parade across the front window, all i cleverly dressed by Mrs. Frahm,': even to their hats. I i , Taking advantage of the frozen lake beside the farm, a group of 30 skaters, skiers and; sled riders are having a fine time; The farm consisting -of house and barn, silo, windmill,: chicken, house, animals,?' chickens and ducks gives one a feeling of con tentment. "Peace on earth, good will to men." IS -1 ? tJ 1 -v' - 1 FSesSSg 8 LJ .v. riaW to cMdoT.
