If you have been wishing for a
brass bowl and candlestick set,
try this substitute. For the
candle holders, cut milk cartons
off to about two inches. Cover
them with gold foil paper, and
place a small piece of plastic
foam inside. The foam will hold
a candle firmly and can be cover
ed by placing small az Christ
mas tree balls around the candle.
To substitute for the brass bowl,
cover a box, about 21s" or 8"
deep and 6" x 6" or larger with
the same gold foil. Heap this
with bright balls and wait for the

One of the simplest decorations

an arrangement of evergreens and

the greens in an attractive way,

Once in the house, some kind of
further moisture treatment also
is advisable. Wet sand or stone
or even soil-in a bucket will pro-
vide moisture. Also, some tree
holders have a water container.
Such containers can add several
days of indoor life for the tree
and will help make it more fire
resistant.

FLOWERS AND BRANCHES, dried
in three dimensions, have decorative
values that are lacking in the flat
pressed, drab-colored ones. A flower
dried by baking retains its natural form
and much of its natural color.
Drying flowers in three dimensions is
done this way:
Select flowers that adapt themselves
to the drying process, such as cosmos,
marigolds, larkspurs, snapdrag0ns,
holIyhocks, sunfIowerS and others of
similar nature. Choose a container,
(tin can, stone jar, pastboard box or
any ordinary vessel that is a little
longer than the flower, an inch or more
higher) giving room to allow the limbs
or leaves to extend without crowding.
Place on the bottom of the contained
about half an inch of clean sand. Build
up little mound of sand for the flower
to rest on Do not flatten flower, but
let it keep natural shape. With spoon,
or fingers, pour sand all around the
flower and leaves, gradually covering,
and then adding a half inch more
over the top. This keeps flower from
moving and changing shape, and it will
dry the way it was arranged.
Now, with stove oven warm-not hot
place sand embedded flowers inside
and allow to remain for about 20 min

utes. Remove and set in warm, dry
shady place. Repeat this process twice
daily for or days. Cor, if not con-
venient to use oven, let specimen re-
main in sand for some three or four
WeekS.)
Time and patience are required to put
the sand on the flowers and to remove
it. After drying period, gently pour off
sand, lift out flowers and with a soft
brush remove clinging particles of sand.
The flowers may be arranged in vases,
bowls or other containers, similar to
fresh ones, or may be put behind glass,
and they will retain their natural charm
for years.
Sand may be used again and again.
Several plants may be dried in one flat
box, providing there is as much as
one-half inch of sand between them,
with one plant laid alongside the other,
but never one above the other.
Drying period and heating time sug-
gested applies, generally speaking, to
most flowers, but actual time is best
determined by experimentation. Flow
ers heavy in water content take longer
to dry than those with less water.
Don't be discouraged if your first eff
forts are not as pleasing as you might
hope. practice makes perfect" and
next time you'll do better.

NEW YORK, (GlobaD - Melody
and harmony contrived with in
credible ease and artistry, and a
house full of music-lovers were
last in delight! In short, this is the
story of the 120Oth performance Of
the famous dePaur Infantry Chorus
which appeared in concert at
Carnegie Hall last Easter Sunday
evening.
Except for the mouths that chan
neled the flow Of fine toned sounds
released from the throats of the
20 singers, hardly any part of their
anatomies was seen to move dur
ing any part of the songs. And
when they were singing in har-
mony, their voices did not simply
become adjacent like the pieces of
candy comprising a bowl Of bridge
mix, they blended - like the in
gradients, let us say, in dish Of
your favorite ice cream. The rep
ertoire was we'll balanced as to
song type, and included numbers
from the secular, religious, folk
and spiritual categories. MasterfM
renditions in each category respec-
lively were "Dirge For Two Veter-
ans" by Norman Lockwood; "Panis
AngelicuS" by Cesar Franck; Fol
go Nego brazilian Bambucco)
"Collection" by Gao Gurgel; and
mi Dat Great Gittin' Up Mornin' "
arranged by Hairston.
The Chorus, which was organized
in 1912 and was composed Of a
group of enlisted men of the 372nd
Infantry Regiment, held their first
rehearsals in off-duty hours in
mess halls, chapels and bandstands
at Fort Dix. They used to enter
tain troops in both local and for
eign camps. The becoming beige
gaberdine Eisenhower jackets and
midnight blue Tuxedo trousers
which they now wear during their
concerts, lend dramatic semblance
to the look they had in the Regi-
ment uniforms.

BEST Advice

everything is lost. Ny boy, don't

Those words, uttered to Ralph
Bunche by his mother when he was

constitute ''the best advice l ever

Prize winner and United Nations
Undersecretary writes, 81 have

Bunche knew the wounds of ra-
cial prejudice at an early age.
When high-school senior he was
the top-ranking student of his class
but was denied membership in the
scholarship honor society because
of his race. His mothers advice,
he recalls, saved him from acting
on his impulse to leave school and
abandon his graduation.
Thereafter, through college and
teaching days, in his work with the
OSS during the war and later with
the State Department, "My
mothers words have guided me-"
he writes. 81 believe they can
