Making Christmas
Cards Is Fun;
And Easy, loo
All you need, to make your
own distinctive Christmas
cards, is a little artistic talent,
lots of spare time, plenty of
patience and some scraps of
cloth!
If you have these things, then
this article is for you.
The first step is to select the
envelope. It's much easier to
cut your cards to fit the envel
opes than to have to make or
try to find envelopes to fit your
cards.
Start with a nice piece of
card-weight paper, folded in
half so your message can be
wruien inaiue.
Next, sketch or trace the de
sign you like (keep it very
simple) onto a piece of tracing
paper. Then transferf the sketch
to your card Dy means ot car
bon paper. Try to keep the pen
cil lines light.
Now you're ready to cut the
pieces of fabric mat you will
paste into position on the card.
To do this, use the original de
sign and trace the section you
want on the back side of the
fabric. Cut out and paste into
place
Small feathers, beads,
braids, woven tapes, lace and
doilies can -be used, too. Just
make sure that you use a good
glue.

In 1874, Louis Prang printed
the first American greeting
cards in his lithograph shop in
Boston. These cards were noted
for their artistic quality and
were sold all over the United
States. Thus was begun a holi

To ardent fishermen, the next
angling outing is always just
around the corner even in
the midst of winter. If Dad likes
fishing, an outtiiard ir.slur rep-
presents an ideal Christmas
present. Just watch him begin
planning his first early spring
fishing trip.
When shopping for an out
board motor, several factors
should be considered. McCul
loch Corporation, the outboard
motor manufacturer, offers tips
to Mom and the children on how
to make the proper choice.
If you don't already know, a
bit of sleuthing will turn up
Dad's favorite lake and the
type of fishing he prefers
trolling, exploring the weedy
areas, drift and still fishing or
surface plugging.
The outboard motors most fre
quently used fo; fishing include
those with horsepower ratings
of 3'4, Vk, 9V4, and 14. The par
ticular one for Dad depends on
several factors.
Many fishermen seek out
weedy areas for the bigger fish.
Weeds used to play havoc with
standard outboard motors, but
now special weedless versions
are available, specially de
signed to shear smoothly
through such patches.
An important point to con
sider is. weight. .Dad will ap
preciate an outboard motor
which he can carry easily to
and from his car and one which
can be stowed compactly in the
trunk with the rest of his gear.
