lngrid Bergman Wins
New Kind Of Stella Role

Ingrid Bergman, the ac-
tress who a few years ago
married Rossini Rosellini,
has been awarded another
star. Several years ago, seven
to be exact, just when Miss
Bergman was fresh from
the triumphs of that marvel
Gus Broa d way Triumph
Joan of Arc, she was
scheduled to run in the Ma
tional Theatre of Washing
ton, D. G. At the time
all of the theatres refused to
allow Negroes admittance.
When Miss Bergman heard
of this, she cancelled her APP
pearance. This was an
especially daring and courag-
eous thing to do. Not only
was there great persona
loss, but there was also the
possibility of being disciplin-
ed by her union. However,
Actors Equity not only stood
by Miss Bergman, but Or
dered all shows to stay out
of Washington, d. G.. AS a
result, no shows of the Ii
ultimate theatre entered the
capital until 1853, when all
of the theatres opened her
doors to Negroes.
Adam Clayton Powell, min
lister and member of the
House of Representatives
from N. Y. says, 81 hope
that all Americans will ever
remember Miss Bergman's
pioneer effort in this vic
torious crusade"

this type Of entertainment
to our town.
Clark's Chapel was thu
scene of a gala "Homecom
ing" Sunday which was 8
great success in every sense
OF the word. The guest
speaker Bishop Edgar A
Love of the Baltimore area
delivered the sermon at the
morning service to a packed
house. His text was taken
from Romans and based on
the life of Saul of Taurus.
AT one o'clock luncheon
was served in the dining
room and at three o'clock,
a capacity crowd gathered
in the chapel to witness the
main program which was
very ably directed by Mrs.
Nelson Ward. Mr.. Warren
Rogers, store manager at
Virginia State College; the
lovely Mrs. Elaine Scott
(nee Ward), clerk-typins at
the Pentagon, and Miss
Mamie Buford Of New York
City, gave talks on "What
Homecoming Means To Me-"
The highlights of the eve
ming were an address by
Mrs. Beatrice Buford-Mat-
tox, of the Virginia State
College faculty, who spoke
on Faith" and a summary
by Bishop Love. Music was
furnished by two quartets,
the Spiritual Earmonizers of
Clark's Chapel, and tn e
Gospel Golden Strands of
Pulaski; and a quintet, the
Royal Tones, of Draper, Va.
We feel that Mrs. Ward
and other officers of Clark's
Chapel did a wonderful job
in bringing such an event
to the community, and we,
along with many others I'm
sure, are hoping that this
will be an annual affair.
We will be looking toward
to the next Homecoming"

Try Your
Hand at
YUIe Trim
By Ruth Dean

Christmas is what you make
it-literally and spiritually.
This year, the make-it-your-
self idea in Christmas home
decorations which has been
popular for the last several
years Is really hitting boom
stride.
More than ever before the
raw materials for making home
Christmas decorations are be-
ing featured by department
and variety stores.
According to two local de-
partment store interior deco
rators, Miss Lois Reed and
Miss Lucille Galleher, there's
no limit to what magic the
homemaker can create with
Just a few yards of felt, a pair
Of pinking shears and glue,
and plenty of sequins and gold
ana silver glCCer.
A little time and imagina-
ton is all you need say these
two talented experts.
PosteI CoIors
Use of delicate pastels that
blend with the surrounding
interior decor and a simpler
treatment of holiday decora-
tions is popular this year with
the trend away from the ira
ditional red-and-green Christ
mas colors and gingerbready
trimmings.
Store window displays of
hand-carved cradle scenes,
angels and wise men also in
dicate a trend toward greater
emphasis on the religious
significance of Christmas.
However, Santa Claus and
his elves and sleigh and REIN
deer still hold their own. One
local department store fea-
lures a '"Trim-a-T Tree" shop
which offers Santas and silver
plastic reindeer as well as all
sizes of manger scenes and a
variety of angels.
Eosy-to- Make Decorations
The whole family can par
ticipate, for example, in max
ing a Christmas angel. All
you need is a wooden knob
from one of Juniors old toy
sets for the head, a card
board cone covered with gold
or silver paper for the body,
and picture wire or some of
Dads pipe cleaners for the
wings and halo. Add spun
rayon or embroidery floss
from Mothers sewing box for
the angels hair, a touch of
eyebrow pencil for the facial
features and base metal ma
ter1al for the dress. A few
brush strokes of gold paint

could be picked up subtly
in a Della Robbia wreath over
the fireplace and in the fruit
and candles of the dining
room table centerpiece. Nina
ture biblical figures and
animals placed in groups
around the centerpiece provide
another theme accent.
Milady's collection of arti-
fetal flowers offers endless
possibilities for glamo orous
Christmas decorations. Flowers
from hats you're about to dis
card or corsages that no longer
look fresh take on a new look
when sprayed with gold or sill
yer paint. For added sparkle
lightly touch the giloed petals
with glue and sprinkle with
glitter. If you . have enough
flowers you can pyramid them
into a small table tree that
will bring obs and abs from
your friends at party time.

mantel, the archway between
the living and dining rooms or
the hall entrance. Then,
settle on a budget, stick to a
basic two-color scheme and
study what you have on hand
for possible decorative use.
Perhaps you have an old

over the fireplace. Study the
colors carefully, then make a

silver it. and place in it
Christmas balls that match
the colors in the painting.
This same theme and colors
could be repeated throughout
the home in tree ornaments
and table centerpieces.

and painted figures which a
returning friend brought you

Base Metal Popular
The base metal can be
bought inexpensively in any
variety store by the spool,
either fringed or braided, and
in a number of Christmas col
ors. 1t has multiple uses. Not
only can the family employ it
to turn out dozens of angels.

wild on making a variety Of
decorations, the homemaker
is warned that it will look like
one big mess unless she sticks
to an overall theme. Variety
yes, but simplicity above all.
Modern-day homes and apart
ments are small and therefore
show up more pointedly the
good or bad taste in selection
of Christmas decorations.

effectively. If you have an ar
tistic fair, you can make your
own ornaments out of it. With
a pair of scissors, some paper
lace doilies and a stapler, you
can create snowf1akes, birds,
sleighs and flower pots. The
combination produces a third
dimensional effect.
