A boufjutt of jiard^n flowers
Can b« a lovely ailcliti' n to any
r<«irn in th.' hr>nn-. The home-
maker should use containers that
h-irmoni/e in color, texture an<l
aliai*; with the flower* she wants
to display. When selecting a con-
tainer she can use common items
around the house, even a water
pitcher, *oup tureen, or scrap
basket. Supplies needed are a
sharp hotdar or 2-inch chicken
*ire to bold the flowers, also
some floral day to anchor ho'd-
to to bottom of containers be-
fore water is added. Mrs. House-
wife should then form simple
geometric shapes with the flowers
—triangles, circles, ovals, etc.
To appeal to milady, Kraft

packets of famous Vaughan
flower seeds to users of their
IVLuxe Margarine free of cost
for two gold foil end flaps. The
offer includes marigolds, pe-
tunias, snapdragons and zinnias;

ins which pivots around two major
consul, rations of good taste and
easy maintenance. Not too long
ago the experts took a dim view

various p>'rio<Ls being used to-

The big news in color for home
furnishings for 11K>8 are coloi
cor txnations such as black and
brown, blue and green, and pink
and red.
Now for some helpful hints for
the homemaker:
New fabnes and finishes can do
wind-is for drab, tired-looking
.. aper.e.- and limp and lifeless
. - nents. You can get synthetics
...sm the color locked in. hasy-care
'H.ins are a boon when you want

■ •is are available now in syn-
. - M.th built-in size stability.
I i.ey won't shrink or stretch whtle
hanging. And there's even a new
thread-locked mari)uisette which is
machine washable. Check the man-
ufactumrs' tags to be sure. Co-
ordinated colors and patterns are
good for special situations. You
can get printed or plain material in
the same weave, with the plain
lepeating the background of the
print. There are matching colors
in different weaves, even difVe.rent
weig.it materials. Coordinates come
in ait fabrics. Some are spun glass,
noted for its sun-resistance as well
as its fast-drying and fireproof
properties. Color-fading need no
longer b i a problem, say the ex-
perts. Solution-dyeing will keep
even such things as Kayon shades
furever bright.
January is the month when manyi
homemaker* stock up on sheets,
towels and table cloths. Here are
a Vew tips to keep in mind when
buying. While muslin sheets are
less expensive, the homemaker
looking for long term buys prob-
ably will do better with a good
quality percale sheet. Kxperts
agree they give more value over
the years. They weigh less, save
laund'-y effort and dollars. In the
towel department, the experts say
that up to $4 per towel you get
what you pay for in terry. After
that, you are paying for luxury
design and color. Remember that
the best terryeloth has close loops.
Generally speaking, the thicker the
tarry the better the towel. Check
labels, too. "Vat dyed," is import-
ant in buying colored table linens.
For cloths bearing this mark offer
most resistance to fading from
boiling or sunlight.
Sixth Grade Gives
Program For East
Ward Mothers
The East Ward Mothers Club
met Tuesday. January 7, in the
school auditorium. A program of
song and speech entitled "Holi-
days and Why We Celebrate Them"
was presented by the sixth'grade
pupils of Mrs. Wallace and Mrs.
Sprutt.
M rs. Russell Carter, president,
presided over the business meet-
ing. Minutes :>f the last meeting
were lead by Mrs. (iipson, secre-
tary. The project committee re-
potted that playground swings had
been repaired and a record player
ordered since the last meeting.
Leroy Rushing, principal, stress-
ed the importance of the school |
sus and uiged all parents to see;
that census slips were returned.)
Cieve (iandy, Cubinaster of I'ackj
1" of the Cub Sc >uts, made a pleai
for mothers to serve as Den Moth-
ers. There are a number of boys!
w ho are eligible to be Cubs but i
who cannot join until Den Moth-1
ers are secured for them.
Mis. Roberts iii's second grade
room won the attendance banner.
Refreshments were served in the
cafeteria by mothers of pupHs in
third grade rooms of Miss Fulton
and Mrs. (iraham. |
at Christian Science services.
Keynoting the Lesson-Sermon en-
titled "Sacrament" is the Golden
Text from I Corinthians (5:8):
"Let us keep the feast, not with old
leaven, neither with the leaven of
malice and wickedness; but with
the unleavened bread of sincerity
and truth."
Selections to be read from Sci-
ence and Health with Key to the
Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy
include the following (37:22-25):
"It is possible,—yea. it is the duty
and privilege of every child, man,
and woman,—to fallow in some de-
gree the example of the Master by
the demonstration of Truth and
Life, of health and holiness."
From the Bible will be read the
following (Mark 16: 15): "And he
said unto them Go ye into all the
world and preach the gospel tj ev-
ery creature."
The Christian Science Society
meets each Sunday at 401 S. Mc-
Amis. Sunday School at 9:45 and
children up to twenty years of age
are lovingly invited to "attend.
Church services at 11 o'clock.

Beautiful, yes. Beautiful as only Nature
in all her purity can be. But dangerous too;
dangerous to the ships at sea and the men
they carry. For an iceberg's greatest bulk
lies unseen beneath the surface . . . and
against it, the unwary cannot survive.
Many of the things which, on the surface,
appear the most tempting and beautiful
contain hidden dangers and unsuspected
pitfalls.
Men, like ships, need warning and guid-
ance—and nowhere can they find greater
help, greater love and protection than in
their Church.
