BUSINESS HOUSES
ASKED TO DECORATE
FOR XMAS SEASON

Christmas decorations of the Rich
mond business section in color
scheme of red and green, with small
Christmas trees placed at intervals of
25 feet in gayly painted red tubs. and
telephone and light POLES twined with
evergreen, are included in the plans
just announced by the joint Kiwanis-
Rotary club decorations committee.
This plan is similar to the one fol-
lowed last year for the first time un-
der the direction of Ed Wilson, which
inaugurated definite policy of annual
uniform decorating.
Each business house is asked to be
responsible for the decorations of its
own front with at least one Christmas
tree, and more if the front exceeds
25 feet. These decorations should be
put up at once, committee members
state. The trees should be set in
red tubs, placed on the outer edge of
the sidewalk. Poles will be decorated
with cedar or other evergreen.
Expresses Enthusiasm
81 am enthusiastic about the Christ
mas decorations as carried out last
year by 100 per cent cooperation of
our business men," said Oliver Nus
baum, during the committee meeting
which formulated this years plans,
Tuesday 81 doubt if there was anyone
in the center of the city who failed to
cooperate last year. The small eX-
pense for each 'busicess house was
more than justified by the great out
pouring of Christmas spirit which re-
suited in our city"
Each business house without fur
Their notice, is asked by the commit
tee to proceed with IT'S plans for dec
orations as but little time remains for
citizens and visitors to enjoy them.

assist in carrying out the Christmas
plans and secure cooperation of the
