| The Candle Board.
Inc Following from an exchange,
/ VIII be of some interest and benefit
10 the mother who his many birth
day parties TO give. She should by
all means invest in a candle board.
1t is much more convenient and a
more pleasant way to trim a cake
than to stick candle holders into it,,
with the danger of grease mingling
with the icing.
These boards can be bought, but il
is better to have them made to suit
Your cake pans. They should be cir
cular and large enough to let the cake
slip easily between the rows of candles
on the outside.
The outer rim of the board is filled
with small holes, into which tiny
candle holders are screwed, as many
a.; needed. The board can be made
of burn wood and olsa have an ap-
propriate motto burnt into it.
Any carpenter-even of the home
made type-can make one of these
boards. Pine or any other kind of
wood can be used, and it can be fin
ished with a coat or two of white
enamel or white shellac, and is al
ways ready when the occasion arises
another advantage in its favor.
