PORTLAND. Ore., Dec. 31. (UP)
Dr. Ray Lyman Wilbur, president of
Stanford university, will address the
annual banquet of the junior cham
ber of commerce January 21, It was
announced today.
What!
A MERRY
CHRISTMAS for
mean Old Scrooge?
SAID Tiny Tim remember?
"God bless us every one."
His piping Christmas carol has
become the most heart-moving
among all expressions of the
Christmas spirit. Tim had noth
ing material to give. Yet he
gave the best gift in the world
consideration.
The best part of Christmas Is
giving. This Christmas all of us
can re-give to others the same
handsome gift Tim gave by
determining to drive consider
ately. Who follows this rule
gives much possibly life for
someone maybe an uncrippled
future for another. Sir and
madam, everywhere, we wish
you a Christmas gladdened by
such giving.
We know the satisfaction it
will bring. For years, now, we've
insisted that the first rule of
the road for our own vehicles
must be consideration for
others. Our experience has con
vinced us that consideration
helps make highways safe.
Few persons are genuine Old
Scrooges of the road. Most of
us don't want accidents. But
sometimes one forgets for a
moment and hang! Considera
tion is a habit. It never forgets.
Perhaps we should not for
get, either, what a little con
sideration did to revamp the
original Scrooge. So let's say
"Merry Christmas, Scrooge!"
... as well as "Merry Christ
mas, EVERYBODY!"

Attractive Tables
For Christmas Day
Take Centerpieces
Table appointment for Christmas
day are often a problem for house
wives who are busy with ao many
details of ahopplng. decorating their
homes and making plans for Informal
entertainments of the Yuletlde.
Here are several colorful and Inex
pensive Christmas centerpieces for a
buffet or table:
Place a tall red candle In a low
candleholder and put In the center
of a wooden chopping bowl. Heap up
fruits and nuts In the bowl, hiding
the candleholder. The pears and
apples can be wiped with a cloth
containing a few drops of olive oil
or other cooking oil, to Impart a
satiny sheen. Tie a red satin bow
part way down on the candle for a
more festive air.
Or, arrange on a low tray or platter
a mound of glistening fruit, and
Include a few large leaves or twigs
of holly.
A Christmas garnish for fowl also
makes a table more attractive. This
may be accomplished by surrounding
the fowl (on the platter) with hol-lowed-out,
fresh pear halves, dipped
In lemon Juice and filled with cran
berry sauce or use as salad on a
salad plate, serving with mayonnaise.
These "winter pears" are on the mar
ket now Anjou, Cornice or Bosc
variety.
No Christmas food can be quite
so appetizing and colorful on a table
than a red and green salad. Take
2 packages lime gelatin, 3 cups of
bolting water, marachtno cherries, 3
or 4 halved, fresh pears and mayon
naise. Pour boiling water over gela
tin and stir until dissolved. Pour
half of gelatin mixture into ring
mold. After It has started to con
geal, add pears cut side down after
a cherry has been placed in center
of each pear and add remaining
gelatin. Unmold on lettuce: serve
with mayonnaise on side. (
