Christmas Tree
Tips On How To
Burn Down House
How to let your Christmas tree
be the cause of burning down
your house, or let's keep the fire
department busy between now
and New Years that's the moral
of this sad story.
With tongue in cheek, Charles
R. Ross, Oregon State college ex
tension forestry specialist, has
outlined some of the boners that
others have pulled to get a house
burning job done.
Be an early bird; steal your
tree about Thanksgiving from
hsome private woodland and store
it in a warm dry place where it
will have a chance to dry out be
fore going into the living room,
when ready to decorate it, Ross
adds, don't make a new, diagonal
cut on the tree butt and stand in
a can of water; just tack on the
stand over the old cut and place
it near a fireplace, radiator or
warm air duct.
If by this time, the tree needles
are beginning to turn brown and
fall, it isn't because the tree is
becoming dry and a fire hazard,
there's something wrong with the
tree. It was sick, probably, and
would have died anyway.
When you plug in the tree
lights, if the other house lights
flicker and dim and your tree
lights sputter and crackle a little
(hat means you're really getting
into, the swing of things. What
if the circuit is overloaded, you'll
only be using the lights evenings
until after New Years.
So let's do the decorating job
right. After the lights are strung,
add cotton to resemble snow.
Place it around the base of the
tree and close to lights and wire.
Santa Claus will leave his gay,
paper wrapped packages around
the base of the tree, too.
Christmas eve. Here's a sure
fire stunt the kiddies will enjoy:
there's nothing like a good old
Christmas when papa lighted the
tree candles and you all sat
around and sang Yuletide carols
and watched the house burn.

Home-Made Puffed Candy
As Trimming for the Tree
mm
After the cooking, young hands shape the mixture of puffed
wheat, molasses and nuts into large balls.
Tree trims that are a treat!
That the "young fry" can help
to make and that they will eat
right from the tree!
They are special puffed wheat
balls, a Christmas idea of Ruth
Marie Jensh, Home Economist
of Admiral-New York, and they
provide a healthful goody as
well as a colorful and inexpen
sive tree decoration.
They are easy to make and
fun to make when the young
sters take part in tHe ball roll
ing and wrapping.
The ingredients:
1 pkg. Puffed Wheat or
Puffed Rice
1 cup light molasses
2 tbsp. butter
V tbsp, vinegar
V cup sugar
1i cup nut meats
The making:
Melt butter in saucepan, add
sugar and molasses. Stir until
sugar is dissolved, then continue
cooking to 268' or until brittle
when tested in cold water. Stir
lightly toward last of cooking
to prevent burning. Add vinegar
and mix lightly. Pour mixture
over puffed wheat, which, should
be very crisp, and nuts. Stir
until well blended. With greased
hands shape into fairly large
balls, pressing together firmly.
The final touch is the wrap
ping and the hanging on the
tree. This job is essentially that
of the children. The balls should
be wrapped in colored trans
parencies and tied to the tree
with ribbons.
Mrs. George Griffith of Morgan
was a weekend guest of her
mother, Mrs. Frances MitchelLl
Jerry Vanover and Leslie Grant
attended the education meeting
in Portland over the weekend.
