Try lighting short, stocky trees which have a heavy base growth by arranging strings of lights In straight vertical lines. For a really spectacular effect, use bulbs of one color. Holiday lighting specialists sug gest the use of all yellow bulbs to give the tree a golden effect. Another unusual treatment for taller trees, drape strings of out door Christmas tree lights diagon ally to emphasize the symmetry of the tree. Tall trees, too. will take on added glamor If bulbs of 0110 color are used.
