SAVE
THE
! TREE

For the family which prefers a
small tree, an evergreen can serve
as the traditional Christmas deco
ration during the holidays and
later take its place in the family
yard as an ornamental tree.
Forestry experts say that the
live tree has a reasonable chance
Of survival II several rules are fol-
lowed.
First, careful digging is neces-
sary to insure that the whole root
system is removed with the tree.
The evergreen should be thorough
ly watered from the moment 1t Is
potted.
The tree should be kept In the
house a minimum amount OF time,
since the heat Of the house often
forces the buds to break out. These
win freeze when the tree Is trans
planted outdoors.
Short-needled varieties Of ever
green make the best potted trees.
These include balsam, white and
Douglass fir and blue, white, red
and Norway spruce. The foliage
Of pines Is too sparse at the three
foot height to make them suitable
as table trees.

Beautiful POinsettia
Needs Special Care

The poinsettia, with its bright
red flowers and green foliage, will
survive if cared for properly.
If you have recently purchased
a poinsettia, chances are it was
greenhouse grown, so try to pro-
vide conditions as nearly as pos
sible like those IN the greenhouse.
A uniform temperature of 6O-75 de-
grees F. is best. Place the plant
in bright light near sunny win
dow but remove it at night to pre-
vent chilling. Water it enough to
keep the soil moderately moist but
not water-logged.
Cool and Dry
II you intend to keep the POM
settia for another year, gradually
withhold water and store it in
cool, dry place after it has stopped
blooming. In April or May, prune
it down to six inches, and repot it
in a good potting mixture with
proper drainage.
Return it to bright light to renew
its growth. You can put it out in
the garden when the temperature
remains above 60 degrees F. An
area partly shaded from the mid
day sun is most desirable.
You can keep the poinsettia
short by pinching it in summer,
but do not prune the same shoot
more than once because small
flowers will result.
AS cool W e t h er approaches,
move the plant indoors to an airy
and sunny location, preferably
near a south window. The poinset-
tia is a short-day plant and must
not be exposed to artificial light
because it will delay or prevent
Towering.

Choose Wisely When
Buying Toys for Tots

Safety is an important factor In
the selection of Christmas toys for
the pre-school set and here are
some good suggestions:
Be sure paint on toys is lead free
and that toys have no sharp or
jagged edges.
Never give a small child a toy
that is small enough to swallow.
Tiny toys or toys with small parts
that may come off should be
avoided.
Consider traffic hazards before
buying toys used outdoors. A ball
or a bicycle is a dangerous play
thing on busy street.
Building blocks are just some
thing for the small tot to scatter
from one room to another and
small toys quite often cause bad
falls If left scattered on the floor.
Avoid glass and other breakable
materials

Safe Toys Will Make
Holiday Happiest

The toys you give your child
this Christmas can turn his happy
holiday into time of needless
tragedy if you do not exercise eau
ton in selecting safe and well con-
structed playthings.
The frequency of eye accidents
among children show a marked
increase during the holidays, acct
dents caused by BIB guns, bows
and arrows, sharp-pointed toys, or
toys so poorly constructed they fall
apart. leaving jagged edges.
Here are some helpful hints for
toy-buying parents:
1. Be sure the toy is suitable
for the child's age and that he
knows how to use it.
2. Avoid toys with sharp edges.
8. See that the toy is put to-
gether sturdily.
4. Avoid dangerous playthings
such as BIB guns. pointed-tip ar
rows and air rifles-especially for
the smaller fry.

Bruce Greene Example
Of Wilson High Spirit
By DICK TIERNEY

The spirit and drive that
carried Wilson High Schools
football team to the Interhigh
League West Division cham
pionship is best typified by
Bruce Greene. who fought his
way back into the starting
lineup after having been de-
NOTED.
Early this season. Greene. a
5-foot-11. 180-pound guard and
tackle was dropped from the
first team when Coach Pete
Labukas noticed Bruce's block
ing left something to be de-
sired.
But you couldn't hold him
back Labukas said. "He really
went to work after we denoted
him. He was the first one out
for practice, working on the
blocking sled, and then stayed
late and worked some more.
Returned to Lineup
"He improved SO much that
we had to put him back on the
first team and now he is one
of the best blockers and tack
lers we have. He's typical of
this team, they all have a ter
rife desire to play and none of
them wants to sit on the
bench"
While Labukas is happy over
Greene's improvement, he is
concerned over the loss of
Bruee's twin brother. Duff, for
tomorrow's Interhigh cham
pionship game against Anacos-
tia at 1870 pm. at Coolidge.
Duff suffered a shoulder
separation in last weeks West
Division playoff game with
Coolidge. The loss will hurt
since the 6-foot 190-pound full
back. along with Tailback Dick
Drummond, provided Wilson's
single-wing attack with a good
one-two punch.
Born in Philadelphia
The Greene twins were born
In Philadelphia and began
playing football in the sixth
grade at Camp Hill, Pa. "They
started teaching us funda-
mentals early up there" Bruce

remember our coach was Fred
Downing and we all admired
him because he. led the cdun-
try in passing when he played

than anyone. He put the spirit
in the, team after we lost our
first three games. Pete's a real
good coach. I, guess that's
because he's from Pennsylvania

Bruce comes from an ath-
