Jack HOrner Pies
Popular Feature Of
Christmas Parties

TIL ABORATELY trimmed Jack
Horner pies. within which are
IL concealed small gifts and ia
vors. are conspicuous at holt
day parties. One design is in the shape
of a huge Christmas bell 1t is of gold
paper, with clusters of holly tied i'll
place with scarlet gauze ribbon, and
is to be suspended by ribbon from
chandelier. Inside the white tissue pa
per lining are concealed two dozen IA
vors. each one connected with long
streamer of scarlet gauze ribbon with
a little gilt bell ut the end.
The same design is carried out In an
immense bell covered with frosted sill
yer paper and decorated with sprays
of mistletoe tied with green and scar
let tulle. The mistletoe harmonizes
with the freshness of the silver paper,
and the tulle is even lighter and pref
tier than the gauze ribbon. The indi-
vidual bells are of silver to match.
A big plum pudding Horner pie, made
Of Just the right shade of brown Grape
paper and with many little depressions
showing simulated bits of fruit made
of black glazed paper, is another de-
sign. Each simulated plum is the start
ing place for ribbon attached to a
gift, so that each guest is literally ask
ed to pull out plum" from the con-
tents of the big dish. The dish is sur
rounded with circle of holly tied with
a full bow of scarlet tulle
Another Horner pie, designed to hang
from central chandelier. is In the
form of fashionable muff. with many
Fittings of white Grape paper and an
deliberately arranged lining of white
tissue. inside of which are the gifts.
The muff represents white fur and Is
made of short fringes of paper. On
each side is fastened a spray of mistle-
toe attached to the end of each red
ribbon hanging from the inside of the
muff.
Where the Jack Horner pie is to be
used as centerpiece on table small
natural Christmas tree makes pretty
decoration. The gifts can be arranged
in a pan or dish, giving space in the
center for firm base for the tree.
An ornamental dowerpot or jardi-
Mere can be fashioned in this way.
covering the outside with closely laid
rows of twisted paper rope and scatter
ing artificial moss around the base Of
the Christmas tree Under this start
the ribbons, connecting each gift to a
miniature tree. which serves rs favor
for each person.
Tiny wisps of evergreen, kept up
right by spool, make pretty table
decorations at each plate. The spools
can be painted red or green or can be
covered with tinsel paper.

matters which worry the Secretary of
the Navy. There are other worries
which come to those great statesmen
who run things in the departments. In
addition to the troubles which are ex-

Just listen to this worry.
Post Office Inspector johnson found
that there would be q vacancy on his
staff down in North Carolina. and he
called up Secretary Daniels to ask
whether or not he could find good DEM
ocrat who could stand a civil service ex-
animation to take the job. Secretary
Daniels admitted to himself that this
would be a difficult task, but he put on
a brave front and allowed that he could
find one. Then, after hanging up the
telephone. he began scurrying around to
locate one.
1t seems that the concentrated efforts
of everybody interested in landing q

of the sort. He had taken the civil
service examination for this very fob some
months ago, but had never been appoint
