SCHOOL FORESTS INCREASE

More than a quarter-million
trees have been planted by youths
of five High Schools in the MuSkin-
gum Watershed ConSerVancy Dis
trict, proving that young people
are anxious to assist in conserVa-
tion work at the same time they
create living memorials to their
schools.
The program of pine tree plant
ing began last year under the di-
reCtion of II. P. Garritt, forester
with the u. S. Soil Conservation
Service assigned to the District.
Loose dirt ridges, ploughed on the
contour, make planting easy for
the school youths who set out 200,-
| 600 trees last spring.
The project is open to any school
which might care to participate.
Seeding trees are available from
State nurseries and all that is need
ed is bit of land upon which the
trees may be planted to create
lasting and living memorials to
schools anywhere in the state. The
students benefit by receiving first
hand training in forestry and the
school may benefit III future years
when selective cutting of the
trees will provide an income with
out destroying the beauty or pro-

Union COunty's newsy sheet;
Talk about your county papers
This one, sure, is hard to beat.
Long, I've read this county paper,
Twice each week it comes TO us,
If 1 didn't get each issue,
would raise a great big fuss.
There, we get the advertisements,
Also read our local news.
Those who do not read this paper
Surely, must enjoy the blues.
There we get important court news,
And we find out who will wed,
Also those who want divorces,
And the gsOd traits of the dead.
Let's subscribe now for the Journal
Yes, take care of this today;
1t is not a costly paper.
1t will sure big profits pay.

Potted Yule Trees Can Be
Used for Several Years

The record of using the same
Christmas tree for the last five holi-
day seasons is held by Mrs. H. R.
Yount of Brunswick county in North
Carolina.
Mrs. Yount planted small cedar
by her farm house and the first
Christmas it was about Is inches
high. She placed it in pot and used
il as a table tree with appropriate
decorations.
After the first Christmas, she re-
planted the small tree by the house,
then dug it up again and placed it
in a bucket on table for its second
holidays.
Again it was replanted and the
third year it took its place on the
floor with the children adding the
necessary decorations. 1t was very
carefully treated and again reset by
the house. For the last two years
it has been used as an outside
Christmas tree to carry all the lights
and decorations.
Mrs. Yount and the other mem
bers of the family have made spe-
cial preparations for decorating the
traditional Christmas tree again this
year.

gally on the tree.
Before Stringing on the tree, shells
may be colored all the hues of the
rainbow, as at Easter time. Or de-
signs in pencil on the shell may be
made in the form of scrolls, leaves
or figures. The designs may be filed
in with colors, outlined with black
crayons. Christmas seals pasted on
white eggshells will be bright and
shiny. Colored confetti dots can
likewise be used on the eggs.
Peanut dolls to hang on the tree
can be made by stringing suitable
sizes together and tying the cord
tightly to keep them in shape. They
can be painted gold or silver or
any other color that will liven the
tree and give the little folks a part
in the decorative scheme.
A half-dozen star Santas swinging
from the tree will add interest Make
some five-pointed stars from heavy
paper. Paste a Santa head onto the
top point and design white mittens
on the next two, draw a belt and
it's done. Run string through San
ta's hat and tie to a branch.
Small green squashes painted with
shellac or varnish so they will re-
tain their freshness can be either
tied to the tree or arranged around
the base.
Pine cones tied with ribbons and
perhaps a bell and painted white or
silver for make-believe frost are per-
feet for suspending from the tree.
