Nativity Theme
Dominates Cards

Modern Christmas cards Tea
ture literally hundreds Of inter
pretations of the popular Natl
vity theme. Many of these are
reproductions from the old mas
ters, while many others have
been created especially for the
Christmas card industry.
The Nativity theme, which ma
turally lends itself to an almost
endless variety of interpreta-
tons and a wealth of detail, long
has been a favorite subject OF
Christian artis's. Many of the
details, based upon certain Bible
texts, have fostered various
Iegends-such as those concern
ing the Magi-which grew until
the Wise Men were identified
and given kingdoms.
The Annunciation is among the
earliest subjects represented II
Christian art, antedating the
Madonna and Child theme by
several centuries, and it is in,
teresting to note that the fathers
of the Church determined how
the Madonna should be portray,
ed: her dress and mantle are
usually blue and red.

Gifts That Sparkle
Add Holiday Joy

Attractive gifts under a Christ
mas tree add as much sparkle to
the holidays as decorations on
the tree.
Plastic foam has unlimited use
on packages. A boot three inches
nigh, cut from one-inch-t thick
plastic foam makes a nice de-
coration for children's packages.
Brush the boot with shellac
and sprinkle red glitter on the
wet shelIac. Then glue a collar
2 inches thick by l II inches high
on the boot.
You can make a wagon from
rectangular box by cutting
wagon wheels and tongue from
34-inch plastic foam. Edge the
wheels and tongue with pipe
cleaners and glue them to the
package.
For a three-dimensional look,
cut picture from an old Christ
mas card. Make paper strips
h-inch by 2 inches and pleat
them. Attach the picture to the
package by gluing one end of the
strip to the picture and the other
end to the package.

Holly Branches Are
A Part OF Christmas

Holly branches are part of the
Christmas scene. Even before
there was a Christmas the anc-
lent Romans found that the
hiny, prickly green leaves and
red berries of the holly tree
were ideal as festive adornment
for the halls where they cele-
brated their feasts of Satur-
MALTA.
Holly came to be considered
sacred by many because its
beauty was greatest at a time
when most other trees were bar
rem. Evil spirits and witches hold
powerful sway in the legends
and folklore of all peoples and
they, account for holly's present
position as a doorway decora-
ton. 1t was placed over entry
ways and windows in the belief
hat its thorns would ward off
hese unwan ed visitors. Regard
ess of legendary spirits, one
thing is sure, Christmas holly is
lere to stay as an expression of
the friendliness, good will and
'oy of the season.

Christmas Ornaments
May Slain CarDets

Christmas crepe paper and
New Years confetti can perman-
emily stain rugs and carpets.
Party papers are colored with
a wide range Of cheap dyestuffs.
When the paper becomes wet,
the dyes run badly. The dyes
will transfer permanently to
textiles. If crepe paper and con-
fetti accidentally get wet, keep
them off rugs and carpets.
Should rug become marked
with a paper stain, immediate
first-aid is necessary. Mix a tea
spoonful Of neu raj soapless de
tergent in one-half pint of luke
warm water.
Apply the detergent solution
directly to the stain few drops
at time. Use an eye dropper.
Sponge the stained area with
clean, white, unstarched cloth or
cleansing tissue This will blot
up moisture. Begin at outer
edge of stain and work in. Re-
peat if necessary.
Finish by absorbing any re-
naming moisture with a clean.
damp cloth. Complete absorp-
ion is important.

Local Officials
Give Warning OF
Seasons Hazards

Be on the lookout for shop
lifters and bad check passers.
That is the warning from the
Noble county sheriff's depart
ment and the Caldwell police
DEP artment.
A special warning is being
made to merchants to be on the
lookout for these viola ions dur
ing the busy wind-up shopping
season preceding Christmas.
1t was noted by the officers
that the passing of bad checks
has been on a decided increase
IN this area for the past year and
this viola ion is excepted to
become numerous during the
holidays.
Merchants are asked to re-
quest Identification when cash
ing checks for strangers and
perhaps better still do not cash
checks offered by these strang-
ers. OF en- identification may be
'rigged'' or stolen, making check
cashing on the part of the mer-
chants costly chance.
Shoplifters are extrem e Y
active at this time of year when
stores are crowded. Although
Caldwell has had no sizeable
i'ems taken from stores for some
time, the danger of loss by the
merchant is omnipresent.
Merchants can best guard
against thefts from their Gus
toners by having sufficient
number Of clerks on duty TO
cover all parts Of the store and
to have clerks be on the alert at
all times, making an effort to
serve all customers as soon as
possible.
Any thefts should be repor' ed
to the authorities at once in
order to facilitate the capture of
guilty parties, and insure the
return Of the goods taken.
The journal. (Caldwell, Ohio) 1934-1961, 1957-12-19

There are a lot of things about
Christmas that everybody sees.
The colored lights. The Christ
mas trees. The store decorations.
The counters filed with dazzling
gifts. Homes decorated, streets
decorated.
Everybody sees Christm s
cards, bells, and street corner
Santas. There are carol singers,
miStletoe, holly and evergreen
wreaths. We see hurrying crowds
OF shoppers, enlarged toy depart
ments in stores, overloaded mail
trucks, express packages piled
high beside the. trains.
We see fires in the hearth,
stockings hung with care, tables
laden with good things to eat And
they are all a part of Christmas.
But all of these things are often
too easy for us to see. Perhaps
this year we should look extra
hard for the Spirit of Christ
mas" Let's look for the great
amount of good in all people; it
shines best at Christmas time.
Let's look at the faces of little
children for the real happiness of
Christmas. Let's look out for the
needs of less fortunate people, the
shut-ins, the lonely, the unfor-
tunate.
And this year, let's try once
again to see the real meaning of
Christmas-its religious signifi-
canoe. It's message of peace and
hope for the world. Let's really
see Christmas this year.
