SELECTING
 XMAS TREES

If your Christmas tree shed it's needles early last winter, you prob ably had the wrong kind of tree.
 All leaves will drop their leaves after they are cut and stored Tn a warm room, but some kinds hold their leaves far longer than others. Trees used most com m only on Christmas are the spruces, fir, hem lock, pine and red cedars.
 Spruces are the least desirable of all evergreens because they are the first to shed their needles. A spruce can be identified by grasp ing a branch tightly, as it's sharp pointed needles will prick your hand
 The ideal Christmas tree is the fir. It resembles the spruce ex- cept that it's needles stay on the tree for a long time, and become golden brown before they finally drop. Needles of a Douglas fir are flat and soft to the touch. This popular tree can be recognized by examining the cones which have small appendages on each side.
 Hemlccks tend to shea their fo- liage early when kept indoors at a warm temperature The disting- uishing feature of this tree is the
The Daily Alaska empire., 1941-12-21

of each of it's needle-like narrow leaves.
 Pines have never been very popu- lar as Christmas trees, in spite Of the fact, they do not shed their needles carly This is probably due to their unsymmetrical appearance, which does not closely resemble the conventional Christmas tree. Their longer needles are associated in clusters of three or five
 Red cedars are occasionally used for Christmas trees in neighbor- hoods where they grow wild. The foliage is tiny and scalelike, and is prickly to the touch. It grows berries instead of cones.
 No matter what kind of Christ mas tree you select, it will hold it's needles longer if it is standing in water. Place a little water al the base of your Christmas tree stand, and you will be bothered less with falling needles than you were last year

Crayon, Lipstick
 Add Gay Colors
 To YuIe Candles

Christmas candles for gifts or ta- ble decorations can be made at home from bits of discarded can dies, and the whole family may have fun doing it.
 There is no limit to the shape and size of mold to be used. Card board boxes such as salt packages or ice cream cartons are very sat isfactory. The cartons in which but termilk is sometimes sold are good for the tapered candles. Good re- suits have even been reported with fancy gelatin molds of certain types and with jelly glasses.
 The wick may be fastened through a hole in the bottom of the card- board containers, but in smooth-bot-
The Daily Alaska empire., 1941-12-21

toned molds, it must be kept in place by pouring in little wax at time around it, and then allowing it to harden.
 Arrange two small sticks at right angles at the top of the mold and tie the wick in the center so that it will be held securely in place dur ing the whole process.
 Common string, the wick from an old candle, or commercial candle wicking sold at variety stores or in needlework departments may all be used for the homemade candles.
 All wax to be used in a single candle should be melted in the same container, as it is difficult to match colors. Wax crayons are good col bring matter, and some women have used lipstick with success. As the wax cools in the mold, hole will be formed down the center. Enough wax of the same color should be saved to fill this hole.
 Lacking enough old candles to make the large ones now so popu- lar, talloW candles can be made from these proportions: 10 ounces of tallow, F ounce of camphor, 4 ounces of beesWax and 2 ounces of alum. Melted paraffin, which is i sometimes used, is hard to dye and breaks easily.
 i To make dipped candles, one end of the wick is fastened to stick or pencil, and the wick dipped into the i melted wax for a short time. AS many candles as. can be fully lm- mersed at each dipping may be ] made at one time If the surround ing air is cool, it is not necessary to dip the candles in cold water. For a clear bright red candle, 1t is best not to use such dark colors as blue and green candles in the melting down process. However, very often the layer of color is just on the outside, and it can be scraped off and the rest of the candle used.

gifts will make your flower friends Christmas happier.
 Think of the gift possibilities among the plants, bulbs, shrubs, or seeds themselvesl Most seed houses and nurseries will end gift card at Christmas announcing the gift and stating that the gift will be sent at the proper time for planting
 A Towering plant or a pot of bulbs is sure to be appreciated. Se- feet something which shows promise of continuing in bloom rather than one which is at it's best and will scon fade.

Containers
 For Flowers

Any women who likes color in her home-and w-io coesn twill welcome a gift cf colorful flower containers You might give her an East Indian brass bowl with an in- laid design in turquoise and red. A removable cover made of criss- cross strips of brass will keep all kinds of flowers Tn place.
 Another note of color to give a flower lover is one of set of Chi nese pottery vases made in the simple rectangular shape and of the deep turquoise glazed pottery A set of three sizes arranged step ping-stone fashion would be par ticularly effective.

For Christmas, any of the count less tools and gadgets used by gar

BY HAEOLD JOVIFN
(ANF Radio Editor)

THE NATIONAL Televisior
Systems Committee was scheduled
Monday, January q, to report the
latest television developments be-
fer the Federal Communication
Commission in Washington.
Among the outstanding develop
ments witnessed last week in New
York City by the MISC was the
great progress made in the field OF
color television by the Columbia
Broadcasting System. OF all the
demonstrations by leading broad
casting and manufacturing COM
panies, Colun1bia's was the only
televisior shown in full color CHS
Developments give every evidence
that color television has been lifted
from basic research to the thres-
hold of practical realization.
That much in everyday life IS

visited by devastating fire which
really proved to be a blessing in
disguise. After the fire an inten-
sive building program was launch
ed from which later arose and
academic building, dining hall
and a 12-cottage unit for the young
men.
NOW HAVE % BUILDINGS
Today there are twenty-five
buildings in all. spread over a
beautiful campus of one hundred
acres covered with large forest
trees. The, buildings are COM
modious and modern. and equip
ped with electric lights, sewage,
hot and cold running water, and
other conveniences to provide for
comfortable, healthfu1 living for
the students and faculty.
Senior college work was begun
during the l937-3S session at which
time the junior work was added.
The first senior college degrees
were awarded in May, 1899.
President Erwin was stricken In
March 1888 with a stroke from
which he never recovered. He pass
ed in August 1888, and in this
same month the duties of the
presidency were assumed by
Peter G. Washington of East st.
Louis Illinois.
The affairs of the college are
considered and looked after by a
number of campus organizations
and committees. The health COM
mittee has arranged plans where
by all students may be helped with
medical attention at small cost
and regular physician Is mainr
taiped by the school.
ERECT STONE SEATS
The campus committee looks
after the Identification of the
grounds. Trees have been planted,
drains perfected and the campus
IS kept clean at all times. The
State Highway Department has
planted roses along the highway
in front of the college and erected
stone seats.
The education committee has
sponsored the formation of vari-
Gus types of campus clubs which
make the students more appreci.
ative of the work of certain de-
partments of the school.
The aim of the present admin
instration is to make Jarvis a
model institution in every respect
as 1t strives toward the tl1reefold
development Of the student as
outlined in the beginning by
Major Jarvis, and with It's newly
found wealth the college will be
able to realize It's fondest dreams,
and those of it's founders.

Judge Smith
Helps Many
To Get Jobs

DETROIT, Mich (WNS)--Con-
tary to the many ru1nors that
have been circulating in Wayne
County, former Circuit Judge Frank
Day Smith has been one OF the
best friends the Negro population
of Wayne County has had on the
bench for sometime.
While certain Negro leaders who
have been interested in personal
gains have been continuously at
tacking the Judge as anti-Negro
and intolerant. He has continued
to sit in office day after day and
secure hundreds of jobs for young
Negro men who came to his office
daily and requested his aid in order
to secure employment.
Judge Smith in the year that he
served on the bench demonstrated
a,eyond any doubt that he was in-
terested IN the welfare Of all the
citizens of Wayne county.

ship of the Christian Woinen's
Beard of Missions who felt the
need of an institution in which
young Negro boys and girls could
receive industrial education.
GIVE 456 ACRES
The audible expression of this
desire was heard by Mrs. Ida v.
Jarvis who became interested i'm
mediately. She and her husband,
Major j. j. Jarvis. gave 456 acres
of land to be used specifically for
the education of Negroes.
1t was natural for Major and
Mrs. Jarvis. to become interested
in fostering a movement for the
benefit of the Negro. Coming to
this country from North Carolina,
both Mrs. Ida and the Major had
been raised among the Negroes as
small children. Their parents were
large plantation owners and OWL
ed many slaves. AS children the
two college benefactors were prac-
tically raised by Negro women and
developed tender part In their
hearts for the race.
When Major and Mrs. Jarvis
moved from their plantations i'll
North Carolina, they settled IN
Quitfnan.
He was a leader throughout his
life In all educational movements,
for whites as well as blacks.
Since the Negroes were set free
during the Civil War Major Jarvis
thought and contended earnestly
that inasmuch as they had been
made citizens under the constitu-
ton. the only way to make good
citizens of them was. by the three
fold education of the head, the
hand and heart. He lived to realize
the dream Of years in the schools
opening.
Shortly after the original gift
of land was made, Professor r. b.
Frost was elected superintendent
of the proposed new school and
began his pioneer work of clear
ing the ground and erecting a
building. School opened on jan
uary 1, 1912, with seven pupils and
one instructor.
In 1914, feeling the need of a
president for the institution, Mrs.
Jarvis contacted Professor j. N.
Erwin of johnson City, Tennessee,
regarding the work and develop
ment of the school. He accepted
the presidency of the college in
August, 1914.
HAS s74 1-s ACRES.
The white Christian Churches Of
ITesxas and adjoining states be-
came interested in the welfare of
Jarvis Christian College after be-
coming acquainted with It's pro-
gram through the efforts of Pres
ident Erwin, and in 1929. Texas
Trustee Board was organized con-
sisting of prominent members OF
the Christian Churches. The local
administration functions under the
direction of the United Christian
Missionary Society.
AS the college began to take on
growth more land was purchased
from time to time until today the
institution owns 574 Ia acres, all
most twice tt1e amount Of the
original gift Of 456 acres. A great
part of the land is under cult
vation from which the majority of
the food supply used by the school
is obtained. An ample area is used
for pasture and the wooded Sec
tions furnish much of the lumber
for building purposes.
Jarvis Christian Institute be-
came Jarvis Christian College in
1927 when it was accredited by the
State Department of Education of
Texas.
On October 8, 1895, Jarvis wa
