Along with evoking pleasant vixioni of carolers, eggnog and happy family get togethers, Christinas also means crowded stores, hectic shopping and last-minute preparations. You can avoid the holiday rush by preparing for it ahead of time. Here are some suggestions to help you get ready for Christmas before it arrives: Put your Christmas card and gift list together in the fall to avoid any last minute rush. Starting early also allows you plenty of time to make your own creative greeting cards. All you need is some white or lightly colored blank note paper, a thin artist's brush and a bottle or box of household dye, Begin by lightly outlining an open-faced design onto the note cards Christmas tree, star, heart, etc. Prepare a hot concen trated dye solution (dissolve Vi cup of liquid dye or one package powder dye in one pint of very (tot water (steamy hot not Show you care by giving in true Christmas spirit There are few things more pleasurable during the Christ mas season than the look on the face of someone dear to you, for whom you have chosen the per fect gift. The custom of giving gifts dates back to the Romans who adopted it from the story of the Magi the three Kings who presented gifts to the Christ Child. One of our most celebrated American writers, O. Henry, expressed the custom of Christmas gifts best in a beauti fully crafted short story, "The Gift of the Magi." A young couple, very much in love and very ptxw, seH their most precious possessions to CHECKLIST FOR A PERFECT HOLIDAY SEASON Christmas is a time for good cheer, not chaos! Yet, the un prepared may find that the holi day season has crept up on them, leaving them to franti cally address cards, rummage through the basement for deco rations, and garble excuse as they sneak out to buy food and drink for their unexpected guests! Here's a handy holiday checklist to help you avoid such last-minute problems! For tbt tree Look over ornaments. If any are broken, replace them early before selections narrow; Have a supply of ornament hangers to replace those left on last year's tree. Check lights and cords. Buy extra bulbs. Look over tree cloth to be lure it is clean and has no holes. Find tree stand and clean it up. For gifting Make your list early and do a little at a time. . Get wrapping paper, rib bons, cards. Wrap, as you buy gifts. For cards Select your cards early. If they are to be personalized, take the envelopes home now. Bring address book up to dale; remember zip codes. Address envelopes during short sessions while watching television, listening to the radio or stereo. ; Get postage stamps, and remember special denomina tions for those going to foreign countries.

After removing any excess dye from the brush, paint the dye onto the paper with light strokes working from the edges toward the center of the open area. After your design dries, you can add details with colored pencils, India ink or paper appliques such as gold stars. Making your own colorful season's greetings is easy and economical, and adds a warm personal touch to the holiday. Also, remember to mail your cards early so they aren't de layed in the heavy holiday mail crush. Select your Christmas gifts early in the season. You can eas ily avoid the last-minute shop ping rush by purchasing items as you see them throughout the year and storing them away until gift-giving time. Or, if the stores seem unbear able to you, why not make your own presents? With a little imagination, some inexpensive items and Rit Dye you can do creative things. bring happiness to each other on Christmas. He sells hit heir loom watch to buy combs for her luxuriant hair; she cuts and sells her hair to buy a fob for his watch. For all the cries of Christmas commercialism, the thoughtful ness expressed in an appropriate gift delights all. It is also a good lime of the year to spread good will, to let those who have touched your life know in a tan gible way that you appreciate them. From family members to spe cial friends to the neighbor who baby-sat for you in an emergency, a present shows you care and that's what Christ mas is all about. TIRED OF TURKEY? WHY NOT VARY HOLIDAY MENU? Are you tired of turkey? We begin to look forward to the big bird somewhere around October when the fall harvest of pump kins, squashes and cranberries titillates our taste buds as we an ticipate Thanksgiving. We shoot our bolt on that last Thursday in November with a table that should rightly be called a groaning board. Then, with Christmas shop ping, decorating, parties and all the other preparations for the Mason, we give little thought to a Christmas feast that could be a shade different. Not only is it traditional to present the turkey with all its trimmings, it's easier. But, really, a crown roast of pork or lamb, stuffed in the center with its own ground meat, nuts and cranberries and decorated with spiced apples on each point, is not difficult to fix. A German sauerbraten mari nated in ginger snaps, an En glish standing roast of beef ac companied by Yorkshire pud ding, a French breast of veal stuffed with ground pork, rice and olives may require a little more time, but each is well worth the effort. Recipes for all these treats are available in any good basic cookbook. For those whose families would go into shock without the traditional turkey and trim mings, throw them a curve on appetizer or dessert. Try an elegant, light cream of watercress soup (canned chic ken broth, watercress put through a food processor and a dash of nutmeg), a molded pate of beef, pork and liver, or a quiche made with Edam cheese and sliced tomatoes. And, for that last tweet course, dispense with the pie and turn your pumpkin into a cinnamon-perfumed brandied flan (custard) or stack miniature cream puffs into a pyramid held together and drizzled with caramel syrup. take pride in the wide variety of countries represented on their tree, a veritable U.N. Food lovers may opt to make their tree edible hanging little choco late balls and bells covered in bright-colored foil, and home baked gingerbread cookies In a myriad of shapes. Candy canes can be hung from the tree's branches by their crooks, or can be grouped in miniature Christmas stockings, Miniature stockings can also be used to hand small bottles of booze from the tree. And, with edible ornaments, there's one further advan tage when it comes to taking down the tree, after Christmas, you can make a last party of it eating what comes off the tree, with glee. For instance, dye an un finished wood picture frame and place your favorite photo in it to give to someone special; make a wail hanging by painting with dye on stretched canvas, or dye a natural colored wicker planter and place dried flowers in it to use as a centerpiece. When wrapping your Christmas gifts this season with colorful paper and bows, make them even more special by ad ding a personal touch. With a store bought alphabet stencil.' household dye and an artist's brush, you can stencil your special friend's name on a gift lag. Just fill in the stencil with dye in the shade you like the best. ( Check vour Christmas or naments before the holiday ar rives. Replace any that have broken; spruce up the ones you plan to use and check the strings of lights to be sure everything s in proper working order.
