brightly lighted windows all over
town which are cleaning with
decorated Christmas trees,
wreath and candles. One of the
loveliest trees in town is the per-
fectly shaped evergreen in the
lawn of the j. F. Colley home
Bellview avenue, which is gaily
bedecked with shining Christmas
lights. 1t is a work of art.
Another decoration which has
been attracting attention is the
miniature crech on the lawn adj
joining the Brumfield store. After
dark the nativity scene is softly
lighted and usually attracts both
children and grown-ups as on
lockers.
