This plan was so new in Eugene that there was no response and so the competitive plan had to be given up. A few people however did work out some eitecttve decorations and it is to be hoped more will bo done this year. J. Ms writers personal feeling was rather one of gratification that the competition did not. en thmnh Granted the fact that the Christmas celebrationis not historically Chris tian; inai it was carnea over from the earliest recorded history as a pagan celebration of the end of the sun's journey southward and the as surance to the world that darkness and cold and misery were to end and summer sure to follow; that New England's first settlers hoped thev had definitely left to Enron to mrrv on this pagan festival, and that it would never be established in the new land, yet it has come about that it is now recognized by the church, and as such, the writer hopes Eugene may keen a war from nnvrhint? which prs of the "Bigger and Better" spirit in me uuservance oi mis now estab lished custom in memory of the birth of the "Bnbe of Bethlehem." Simplicity Keynote There are beautiful wnys in which the house may say "Merry Christ mas" without ostentation and without effort to outdo one's nHj;lil-nr, and it is with this in mind thut the sug gestions which follow are given. The custom of hancing a wreath on the door or window is not new in our community. If a doorway is elaborate in design this simple wreath on the door may be all the house front needs. Good taste is ns much to be reckoned with in this matter as in any other phase of decoration, and "restraint" is ever the watchword. If the door way is plain a rope of cedar may frame the doorway with a wreath on the door, and a light at the top cen ter of the wreath, or instead of the rope there may be matched trees on either side of the doorway each with tiny lights on them and the wreath on the door. If there is a balcony on the house cedar rope may be festooned on this with lights every fifteen inches or farther apart, justo they are spaced regularly. A large front window may be framed with the cedar rope, and this may be so effective that nothing more is needed. Window boxes lend themselves most gracefully to" decoration. A small tree may be placed in the center of the box and strung with lights, or ope may fill the box with greens building it up to a pyramid in the center and decorating it with lights. If the house has more than one window box, dress them all but make one a major fea- j ture, subordinating the others to it I unless for architectural reasons they j all should be alike. Just here it may be well to say Make whntever is done to have ar chitectural form." Shapeless, shaggy, nondescript manses are messes and worse than nothing. If you make your own wreaths use strong wire for them or use stout willow or alder wands which will keep shape. Green covered wire or even picture wire can be bought at the ten cent store with which to hold firmly in place the boughs that go into the wreath. Wreaths may be made of holly or they may be of fir or pine or hem lock or Oregon grape or salal or laurel. (Indeed laurel has been so generally used in the east that con servation laws had to be made to pre serve it from extermination.) rem fronds may be worked in in combina tion with the hemlock or fir. Sprays of red-berried shrubs, colored balls used for tree decoration or the col ored lights give life to the wreath. Pine cones silvered or gilded give a bright quality. Red peppers, cucum bers and kumquats are also used. The main thing in making the wreaths is to get them dense, uniform in density, and firm. They are not so easy to make but can be made at home and if there is time it adds just so much to the fun of the Christmas celebra tion to do this at home. Big Santa Good A very jolly house decoration would be a big red Santa of cardboard or if one is more enterprising and wants to make a less perishable figure one of board painted red or even a stuffed figure, just ready to make his descent into the chimney. (This would bring all the children both old and young in the town to view your work.) Outside large tree decoration has been demonstrated in past years so we can pass that by except to suggest an all white tree; that is one on which a very generous supply of this so called "rain" is hung and then only white lights are used. This is most effective. In tree decoration one nay call into play one's artistic qualities. There is a garden in Massachusetts in which the decorator has become a "Christmas gardener" in very truth. He combines green and red! lights, one red to two greens; to give witch ery he puts in a blue light, and where he wants a carnival he adds yellow, studying very carefully the effect given by varying proportions in color. There is a light in every bush and shrub in his sunken garden, a verit able garden of Christmas roses. L. D. Davidson Director of Mu.lo at Roosevelt High School and at the Christian Church.

IE 6471 Sleigh bells which tingle with the gusta of wind is another feature em ployed In this garden. A small tree in a pool may be a very delightful feature of the garden when strung with lights; or lighted trees about the pool which will mir ror the tights, are charming. A snot lirht on a aheoherd tending a small flock of sheep has been used as garden feature which was a very suggestive Christmas decoration. A banta Claus in the window re flects the cheer within. The old Teutonic custom of placing a candle in the window on Christmas eve inviting the Christ child into the home is a very pretty custom, one which has been used locally for years and for this there are altar lights, low, round receptacles of thick glass, ren or wnite, containing squat candies which do not reach to the top of the glass. These eliminate the fire hazard which accompanies the ordinarv can dle, the candle is far more effective than an electric light for this window decoration. These suggestions are all Tery simple. They do not call for a great outlay of time and labor, and yet If everybody will do something In the way of outside decoration the town will have a very festive appearance and yet keep in harmony with the idea for which Christmas is observed. Local prices on wiring for outside decorations are 4c a foot: sockets 30 to 35c; colored lamps labor $1.50; and one must have weather proof wiring in case it rains. An opinion from the state super intendent of public instruction was adhered to In the apportionment of the state elementary school fund to district 15, Lancaster, according to E. J. Moore, county school superinten dent. The district brought mandamus pro ceedings against the county school superintendent and the county treas urer in an endeavor to enforce appor tionment on the basis of two teachers. The apportionment as made by the school of fire was on the basis of one teacher and the apportionment there fore less. Mr. Moore stated that he wrote to the state superintendent and asked him to get an opinion from the at torney general and return a statement. This whs done, he said.
