COLUMBUS (UPI) - The
Ohio Crop Reporting Service
said Saturday the winter wheat
seedings for 1974 harvest were
expected to double the previous
harvest, and could be the best
harvest since 1953.
The report showed seedings
this fall forecast at 1.5 million
acres, slightly more than
double last year 's 755, 000
acres. Nationwide, the !all
seeding of winter wheat was
forecast for 51 million acres 1 an
18 pet. increase over 1973.
· Based on Dec. I crop con·
ditions, Ohio's 1974 prospective
winter wheat crop is 62 million
bushels, up sharply from the
1973 production or 23 million
bushels.
The U. S. Agriculture
Department said Friday with
wheat prices soaring to record
levels because of feverish
foreign demand, farmers
planned to produce a record
1974 crop of 1.5 billion bushels.

Ma nv are &lt;.'flmplaining about the energy

li\·cd through other crisis ) though one can't live through four or
f1 ve wars and not know about these things.
A., for m e, I'm glad our servicemen a re home, and thankful
for what I ha ve. [was always told by my mother, "We all have as
m uch as we deserve, or we'd have more."
There's been so much to have and waste and ungratefulness
for It, it's time to remember the ole saying, "Waste not, want
not'' , or "wilful waste, makes woeful want " and "Save for
defense'' agai nst war, drought, Ooods etc., etc.
''VIctory gardens'' and "Clean it up - wear it out, use it up
then do without '' . We were as happy, wise and healthy, or more
so tha n with so much gluttony and waste.
Perhaps it's just as well that we must cut out some TV, car
rides, uew clothes , rich foods, extravagant entertainment and
looking fo r thrills.
It co uld even be fun learning how to enjoy our homes, getting
to know our family and near neighbors, setting up car pools,
exchange baby sitting, sing Christmas Carols, invite some lonely
neighbor in for a meal.
' We are not only out of plentiful energy. Our laiUt is low, or
nearly gone. If we could only "look up and Jive" and "Be still and
know that God Is", we'd rind "tbe peace that passes all understanding" in our hearts.
If we spend the time we fee l sorry for oursell, blame others
and getting farth er down in the dumps, just countinl'l our

blessings we'd soon be ashamed ol ourselves.
.
Many folk turn off lights, TV, radiO and heal m unused·
rooms, make one trip to town a week and. do all they need to,
saving time and wear 011 car and gas. So this IS_not new to them.
We could catch up on readng we've been savmg back; ans~er
letters or phone calls, mend and wash up old drapes and beddmg
and cJothes we liked so well once; go to the church of our c~1~,
there to find from testimonies and experiences or olbers thiS IS
not such a bad ole world alter alL
Some women who haven't made a dress. or quilted a quiJt or
dyed a garment. made over a dress or cleaned their own homes,
are doing so now. And lilting it.
Retired men are mending lamps, clocks, picture frames,
irons. etc. that have been lying useless for years. for lhemselv.es
or nt!ighbors.

Old coal and wood stoves are being dragged out from garage
or workshop. There's plenty of wood ror the taking where it's •
been left arter limber is sold.
For elderly who have no heating pad or can' t keep it in Ute
bed, a plastic milk or bleach jug can be lilled with hot water,
capped light and wra pped in a lowell or piUow ca.se, put at Ute
loot ol the bed to keep old feet and bodies warm.
Water will still be warm enough to wash hands and lace in, in
the morning. I used to put baby's formula in tl&gt;ermos botUes for 4

Man today has qui te a bit to say ahout how

That is why the Christmas message is as

That small, faint voice you may have hea rd
above the racket of the cash registers during
!he Christmas shopping rush was that ol an
infant hvping to be noticed amid the hurrying
crowds.
Most people, il !hey listened, recognized
the voice as that of the Christ Child , the Savior.
His birth, His mission on earth, is what Christmas is all about.
For many others - of differe nt religious
persuasion, or lesser persuasion, or no persuasion - the voice may have had a different
source.
But it was and is present nonetheless , and
the message it speaks is the same for all men.
II is a message that echoes across the ages
each year at this season - a message of hope,
ol belief in the essential worth of mankind, a
reboundin~ faith that despite all the sorrow
men visit upon themselves they are learning
little by little how to live in peace with one
another .
It is a message that has been relayed from
one disillusioned, frustrated, yet hopeful ,
generation to another, and will go on being
relayed until the allotte_d time for man on this

CHRISTMAS, 1973
By Bob Hoefllch
With the energy crisis across the land,
No longer is there strand after strand
01 colorful, twinkling Christmas lights,
To dol the darkness ol yule\Ime nights.
Shortages abound to the left and the right,
And prices have just gone way out ol sight.
The car's without gas, the house is cold,
But it's all necessary, or so we are told.
The resulting picture hasn't been good,
The season just hasn't been what it s~ould,
Something's been lacking, the spirit Is weak,
Santa's " Ho , Ho" appears a bit meek.
But wail~ Belore ~ou give up In disgust,
Let me guide toward someone 01 unquestionable trust,
Where you'll find the true spirit, If you just realize,

"welcome home" sign.
The arrival at Greater
Cincinnati Airport Sunday
night for the Cincinnati
Bengals could have been a
noisy, boistrous affair wiUt lots
ol signs and shouting.
But it wasn't.
The Miami Dolphins saw to
that with a more-than-convincing 34-16 win over tbe Bengals
in the National Football
League playoffs.
The playoff loss at Miami
~;;:;;;;;;;;~:;;;: took some of the luster off the
,.
best season in the history of the
Cincinnati franchise. All Coach
Paul Brown and his players
saw when Utey stepped off their
chartered United Airlines
plane bere at 7:50p.m. Sunday
was one rworter and one
television cameraman among
the. quiet gathering of mostly
wives, relatives apd rriends.
Essex Johnson limped from
the plane. Johnson, the
Bengals leading rusher during
the season with 997 yards,
broke loose for a 14-yard gain
the first time he · carried the
ball. But he also injured his
knee on the play and was able
to carry the baU only one more
lime during tbe game.
Remembering a 17-0 loss in

" They'r e not the world
champions for nothing,'' added
Bengals' quarterback Ken Ande rson _ "They've got a great
football team and they showe d
it today."
Superb Ollense
What the Dolphins showe d
was a near flawless offense
that churned out !!~).yard touchdown drives behind the expert
play calling of Bob Griese the
first two times Miami had
possession ol tbe ball. Miami
incr eased its lead to 21-3 in the
se cond quarter before the
Bengals, taking advantage of
two Dolphin turnovers, closed
the deficit to 21-16 at halftime.
However, after Miami inter~
cepted a Cincinnati pass early
in the Udrd quarter, Griese,
who earlier in the game had
connectoo with Paul Warfield
for a touchdown, found Jim
Mandich in the end zone for a
seven-yard scoring strike.
"There Was no panic at
halftime," Griese explained.
" We just decided to do what we
knew we could do in the second

snapped the Dolphins' record
U&gt;.game winning streak . "Tbey
beat us in every phase, on
offensive loot baU and defensive foot ball. So we 're really
look i ng forward to havi ng
anOt her chance at Utem."
P ittsburgh, whic h had
beaten Oakland earlier in the
season, got another cha nce at
the Raiders Saturday and all
they came away with was a
loss.
Their defe nsive line blew us
out," s aid Steeler s' Coach
Chuck Noll, " and tbeir backs
ran through tackles. Not very
much about the game was
worth a damn a s ra r as we're
concerneq." - · .
·
"They beat us good/' ·said
Steeler defensive end L.C.
Greenwood. " At least in a
game like this you don 't have to
do any second guessing. It was
their game all the way ."
Raider quarterback Ken Stabler completed 14 of 17 pass
attempts while fullba ck Marv
Hubbard gained 91 of his
team's 232 rushing yards and
scored twice on short plunges
against a defense ranked No. 2
in the AFC against the rush .
Forty, Six-year-old George
Blanda booted four field goals
for Oakland and defensive
back Willie Brown chipped in

with a :;4-yard touchdown run
wiUt an intercepted pass.
"I think Dallas has got the
team that can do it," said
Rams' Coach Chuck Knox after
the Cowboys " did it" to Los
Angeles. "You can't afford a
single mistake against lhem."
The Rams made not one , but
two, mistakes early in the
game (a pass interception and
a fumble ) that the Cowboys
turned into t ouchdowns. The

Some players bad said the
team was "too tight" in Ute

have been tighter Sunday
against Miami.
"In 1970 we didn't think we

on the "tight" Bengals defense
and raced to a 21-3 lead.

they. could never catch up.

The arrival at Greater
Cincinnati Airport Sunday
night for the Cincinnati
Bengals could have been a
noisy, boistrous affair wiUt lots
ol signs and shouting.
But it wasn't.
The Miami Dolphins saw to
that with a more-than-convincing 34-16 win over tbe Bengals
in the National Football
League playoffs.
The playoff loss at Miami
~;;:;;;;;;;;~:;;;: took some of the luster off the
,.
best season in the history of the
Cincinnati franchise. All Coach
Paul Brown and his players

the. quiet gathering of mostly
wives, relatives apd rriends.
Essex Johnson limped from
the plane. Johnson, the
Bengals leading rusher during
the season with 997 yards,
broke loose for a 14-yard gain
the first time he · carried the
ball. But he also injured his
knee on the play and was able
to carry the baU only one more
lime during tbe game.
Remembering a 17-0 loss in

" They'r e not the world

Bengals' quarterback Ken Ande rson _ "They've got a great
football team and they showe d
it today."
Superb Ollense
What the Dolphins showe d
was a near flawless offense
that churned out !!~).yard touchdown drives behind the expert
play calling of Bob Griese the
first two times Miami had
possession ol tbe ball. Miami
incr eased its lead to 21-3 in the
se cond quarter before the
Bengals, taking advantage of
two Dolphin turnovers, closed
the deficit to 21-16 at halftime.
However, after Miami inter~
cepted a Cincinnati pass early
in the Udrd quarter, Griese,
who earlier in the game had
connectoo with Paul Warfield
for a touchdown, found Jim
Mandich in the end zone for a
seven-yard scoring strike.
"There Was no panic at

P ittsburgh, whic h had
beaten Oakland earlier in the
season, got another cha nce at
the Raiders Saturday and all
they came away with was a
loss.
Their defe nsive line blew us
out," s aid Steeler s' Coach
Chuck Noll, " and tbeir backs
ran through tackles. Not very
much about the game was
worth a damn a s ra r as we're
concerneq." - · .
·
"They beat us good/' ·said
Steeler defensive end L.C.
Greenwood. " At least in a
game like this you don 't have to
do any second guessing. It was
their game all the way ."
Raider quarterback Ken Stabler completed 14 of 17 pass
attempts while fullba ck Marv
Hubbard gained 91 of his
team's 232 rushing yards and
scored twice on short plunges
against a defense ranked No. 2
in the AFC against the rush .
Forty, Six-year-old George
Blanda booted four field goals
for Oakland and defensive
back Willie Brown chipped in

with a :;4-yard touchdown run
wiUt an intercepted pass.
"I think Dallas has got the
team that can do it," said
Rams' Coach Chuck Knox after
the Cowboys " did it" to Los
Angeles. "You can't afford a
single mistake against lhem."
The Rams made not one , but
two, mistakes early in the
game (a pass interception and

The four teams still in the

Miami whipped Cincinnati

According to legend a little shepherd girl from Betblehem
followed the shepherds on their way to the manger. All the
shepherds had gifts for Jesus but the little girl had none. She felt
very sad and unworthy about this and hung back from the others.
Just before they reached the stable, an angel appeared in a blaze
of hght and scattered lovely white roses before the little girl. So
she gathered them up and laid them before the m•nger.

congregation follows in their ,

The procession halts at the
water's edge. The Priest in~
tones a prayer and then, after
tying a scarf around the cross,
hurls it into the water. From
the shore and from boats, men
and boys dive after it. The one
who succeeds in bringing it up
receives a special blessing
from the priest and usually a
gift of money from the
onlookers.

According to legend a little shepherd girl from Betblehem
followed the shepherds on their way to the manger. All the
shepherds had gifts for Jesus but the little girl had none. She felt
very sad and unworthy about this and hung back from the others.
Just before they reached the stable, an angel appeared in a blaze
of hght and scattered lovely white roses before the little girl. So
she gathered them up and laid them before the m•nger.

to Celebrate Christmas
On Christmas Eve, children
of Greek families go fr om
house to house singing carols to
the accompaniment of the tiny
clay drwns anct tinkling steel
triangles. They are rewarded
witll gifts of figs, walnuts,
almonds and sometim es

sma ll cakes dusted with
powdered suga r.
The Christmas dinner must
include ' cheridon," roast pig.
In rural households, these are
lattened for the feast from
midsummer on. If a family
cannot afford to buy a pig,
usually relatives or neighbors
provide one.

congregation follows in their ,
wake .
The procession halts at the
water's edge. The Priest in~
tones a prayer and then, after
tying a scarf around the cross,
hurls it into the water. From
the shore and from boats, men
and boys dive after it. The one
who succeeds in bringing it up
receives a special blessing
from the priest and usually a
gift of money from the
onlookers.

Since Greece has always

on Epiphany Day .
At high noon on that day , tlle
Archbishop or highest ranking
priest leads a procession from
tlle church to tlle waterfront.
Dressed in magnificent
vestments, he holds aloft

be celebrated wherever there
is a. sizable Greek settlement.
At Tarpon Springs, Florida,
where many Greeks are
engaged in the sponge
fisheries, and at Asbury Park,
New Jersey, it is an annual

event.
The Church of St. Nicholas in
New York City has held tllis
ceremony for many years at
Battery Park, where the
swimmers must plunge into the

after the cross.

Nativity Creche .Art Dramatizes Story Of Birth Of Christ
According to legend, remnants of the manger at Bethlehem were brought to Italy by early
Olristians. So it is not surprising that some 1300 years later , St. Francis of Assisi should have
chosen to renew its spirit and meaning in the hennitage of Cr~ccio in the Umbrian mountains .
''I desire to represent the birth of that Child in Bethlehem in such a way that -.ith our
bodily eyes we may see all that He suffered for lack of the necessities for a newborn babe, and
how he lay in the manger between the ox and ass."
His friPnd. Giovanni Venita . proceeded to carry out these Instructions, setting up a li(e.size
manger with straw and a tive ox and ass. Members of the..conununity posed as Mary, Joseph
and the shepherds and a wax figure of tll,e Christ Olild was placed in the manger. A great thong
assembled to worship at the site on Christmas Eve 1223. Many songs and hymns were sung, and
so impressive and awe-4nspiring was the ceremony, that Greccio assumed the fame of a second
Bethlehem as the news spread far and wide.
Inspired by St. Francis~ artisans and craftsmen began to make miniature manger scenes
for U.eir homes, and the creches spread all over Ew-ope.
Whole families fashioned the
li.tue figures from wood or clay

the workshops of Naples during

Nativity Creche .Art Dramatizes Story Of Birth Of Christ
According to legend, remnants of the manger at Bethlehem were brought to Italy by early
Olristians. So it is not surprising that some 1300 years later , St. Francis of Assisi should have
chosen to renew its spirit and meaning in the hennitage of Cr~ccio in the Umbrian mountains .
''I desire to represent the birth of that Child in Bethlehem in such a way that -.ith our
bodily eyes we may see all that He suffered for lack of the necessities for a newborn babe, and
how he lay in the manger between the ox and ass."
His friPnd. Giovanni Venita . proceeded to carry out these Instructions, setting up a li(e.size
manger with straw and a tive ox and ass. Members of the..conununity posed as Mary, Joseph
and the shepherds and a wax figure of tll,e Christ Olild was placed in the manger. A great thong
assembled to worship at the site on Christmas Eve 1223. Many songs and hymns were sung, and
so impressive and awe-4nspiring was the ceremony, that Greccio assumed the fame of a second
Bethlehem as the news spread far and wide.
Inspired by St. Francis~ artisans and craftsmen began to make miniature manger scenes
for U.eir homes, and the creches spread all over Ew-ope.

Over 1400 years ago, the
Council of Tours decreed that
the celebration of Christmas
should continue on !or twelve
days through Epiphany, which
falls on January 6th. This day,
also known as "The Feast of
' _Lights," is still observed by
many chiu-ches.
It became customary 1
through the centuries, for the
reigning King of England to
open Twelfth Night revels by
throwing dice. In the 17th
century, Charles II played for
high · stakes, winning 150
pounds one year and losing 100
pounds the next, both
tremendous sums for that
period.

Over 1400 years ago, the
Council of Tours decreed that
the celebration of Christmas
should continue on !or twelve
days through Epiphany, which
falls on January 6th. This day,
also known as "The Feast of
' _Lights," is still observed by
many chiu-ches.
It became customary 1
through the centuries, for the
reigning King of England to
open Twelfth Night revels by
throwing dice. In the 17th
century, Charles II played for
high · stakes, winning 150
pounds one year and losing 100
pounds the next, both
tremendous sums for that
period.
Festivities included choosing
a King and Qijeen of the feast.

As a boy, BB guns were big, and one year I got one. Before

If I were the Mattei toy people, I'd give every little girl in the

U.S. "Christmas" Town's
Swamped With Christmas Mail
Because many people want a Christmas postmark on
their cards, letters and packages, each year millions of
pieces of mail are sent to post offices in those places named
''Christmas.''
Christmas, Florida, population about 300, handles an
average half-million pieces ol mail during the Christmas
season. Located near Orlando, it began as a fort that was
completed on Christmas 1835.

Dea r Helen :
I'm tired of the traditional big family dinner on Christmas
but stuck with it aga in this year. Seems the women spend the
whole day worki ng on lood, or separating kids who fight over new
toys. Even the men don't enjoy themselves that mu ch - there 's
hardly anything to do but eat, avoid kids' battles, and suffer !rom
indigestion.
Why don't you ask your readers to tell us about the "different " ways they celebrated Christmas this year ' Maybe I can
get ideas for next year. - TIRED OF TRADITION, BUT STILL

Dear Tired :
Good idea, How about it, readers ?
&amp;&gt;vera] ye~rs ago (before our small grandchild_ren arrived
and Santa Claus traditions started all over again) we gathered
together most of our large family - sons, daughters in-laws, boy·
and girl-friends, and a few assorted parents - packed a huge
picnic lunch, and took off for the Sierra snow country, where
most of us skied all day, and the few sideliners enjoyed the
camaraderie ol other non-traditionalists around the ski lodge's
big crackling fireplace .
In the evening, we came home to hot buttered rums before
our own Yule log, and we enjoyed our Christmas gifts more
because we'd done something better with our day than stuff a

Dear Helen :
Our children 's great-grandfather tells them the most
outrageous tales about his past exploits - the time he caught a
train robber singlehandedly, and how he practically won World
War Lwithout help, and - well, there's something new abnost
'every week, mostly complete fabrications.
I try to teach our kids that honesty is important. Yet they eat
up his lies and believe every word. Should I tell them the truth that he never really accomplished anything in his lile, he was
just a little passenger train conductor to whom nothin g exciting
ever ]]appened? -EXASPERATED

U.S. "Christmas" Town's
Swamped With Christmas Mail
Because many people want a Christmas postmark on
their cards, letters and packages, each year millions of
pieces of mail are sent to post offices in those places named
''Christmas.''
Christmas, Florida, population about 300, handles an
average half-million pieces ol mail during the Christmas
season. Located near Orlando, it began as a fort that was
completed on Christmas 1835.

Dea r Helen :
I'm tired of the traditional big family dinner on Christmas
but stuck with it aga in this year. Seems the women spend the
whole day worki ng on lood, or separating kids who fight over new
toys. Even the men don't enjoy themselves that mu ch - there 's
hardly anything to do but eat, avoid kids' battles, and suffer !rom
indigestion.
Why don't you ask your readers to tell us about the "different " ways they celebrated Christmas this year ' Maybe I can
get ideas for next year. - TIRED OF TRADITION, BUT STILL

Dear Tired :
Good idea, How about it, readers ?
&amp;&gt;vera] ye~rs ago (before our small grandchild_ren arrived
and Santa Claus traditions started all over again) we gathered
together most of our large family - sons, daughters in-laws, boy·
and girl-friends, and a few assorted parents - packed a huge
picnic lunch, and took off for the Sierra snow country, where
most of us skied all day, and the few sideliners enjoyed the
camaraderie ol other non-traditionalists around the ski lodge's
big crackling fireplace .
In the evening, we came home to hot buttered rums before
our own Yule log, and we enjoyed our Christmas gifts more
because we'd done something better with our day than stuff a

Dear Helen :
Our children 's great-grandfather tells them the most
outrageous tales about his past exploits - the time he caught a
train robber singlehandedly, and how he practically won World
War Lwithout help, and - well, there's something new abnost
'every week, mostly complete fabrications.
I try to teach our kids that honesty is important. Yet they eat
up his lies and believe every word. Should I tell them the truth that he never really accomplished anything in his lile, he was
just a little passenger train conductor to whom nothin g exciting
ever ]]appened? -EXASPERATED

uncreamed cottage cheese,
except dry cooking collage
cheese and that is hard to lake.
Where is it available? Why
certain types of fish?
DEAR READER - First
about cottage cheese. Much of
it is creamed cottage cheese,
meaning that cream tas been
added. The low calorie cottage
cheese or slim cheese type
products that you will see in
most supermarkets are made
without adding cream to them .
That is uncreamed cottage
cheese. The term is not my
own, but comes from the U. S.
Department of Agriculture,
and that is why I USe it.
You can take creamed
cottage cheese and wash the
curds, let the water drain off by
using a collander, and the
washed curds will be uncreamed cottage cheese.
It's not hard to take. It goes
very well .with unsweetened
pineapple, pears or sliced
tomatoes. I Uke it with tomato
aspic also . According to the
press reports the President

eats cottage cheese witt.
catsup.
The uncreamed cottage
cheese can be mixed in a
blender and seasoned as a dip.
Most cheese dips are loaded
with fat, and a lot of it · is
saturated fat.
· Now about those fish . Not all
!ish are low in fat. If you want
to keep your fat intake below 3S
per cent of your total calorie
intake, you will need to eat fish
that are not high fat fish .
Did you know that more than
half the calories in rainbow
trout are from fat ? Fish are 80
per cent water and low in
calories . As a result; a tittle fat
will quickly run up the percent
of calories that come [rom the
fat in the fish . Lake trout is ·
equally as fat, while less than
20 per cent of the calories in
brook trout are from fat .
Canned Chinook or King
salmon is 60 per cent fat ,
calorie wise , while canned pink
salmon is 38 per cent. Pompano
is 52 per cent fat .
Some fish with less fat are:
fresh water catfish, 27 .2 per
cent ; cod, 3.5 per cent ;
flounder and sole, 9.1 per cent;
haddock, 1.1 per cent; halibut,
10.8 per cent; red or gray
snapper, 8.8 per cent; white
sea bass, 4.7 per cent; tautog
(a fish that is showing up more
now with the new interest in

fish since food prices have gone
up), 10.0 per cent. All of these
values are for the per cent of
calories in the fish that are

from fat.
Shellfish are commonly low
in fat. Even oysters, which
used to be listed as high in fat
in some references. h.ctve only
25 per cent of tlleir calories in
the form of fat. Scallops are
. only 2.2 per cent fat and shrimp

only 8.6. per cent. S~me
shellfish, specifically shrimp
and lobster, are resonably high
in cholesterol and tllerefore
should not ))ecome a major
frequent source of food,
although they can ,be used in
moderation.

WASHINGTON - PRESIDENT NI XON spent a quiet
Christmas with family and friends at the White House, then
turned his attention today to the energy crisis and the stack of
some 50 bills passed in the closing days of Congress.
Nixon put off a previously pianned post-Christmas vacation
to Key Biscayne, Fla., butit appeared likely he may decide to fly
to the Florida White House later this week for a long weekend
over New Year's. Some 100 White House aides, Secret Service
agents and repofiers were holding reservations on commercial
airlines on the prospect that Nixon would be going to Florida.

Both sides issued alternately pessimistic and optimistic
predictions on the chances for success of the troop pullback talks.
The Israeli newspaper Haaretz said today Jerusalem had no new
proposals to advance. Israel intend~ to stick to previous
proposals for mutual withdrawal, the newspaper said.

found in variety stores, which is where Mr . Rieck gets the small,
.artificial Christmas trees , Usually, he enhances them by.adding
branches for greater fullness and to accommodate more ornaments. The more ornaments the better, according to Mr.
Rieck, because people get great pleasure, discovering each in·
dividual one.
Some tiny toys are placed under the tree along with match
boxes and pill boxes, which are done up in gay wrappings to look
like tiny Christmas presents.
Several of Mr. Rieck's trees are priceless as their treasured
Victorian predecessors. Some are kept under glass bell jars.
His elaborate creations are probably quite beyond most of
us. However, simpler versions can be done by anyone and
children, especially. The same type of inexpensive trees can be
used and tiny illustrations on Christmas cards can be cut out to
serve as decorations. Stars, angels, toys, Santa Clauses abound
· on these cards, many o.f which are glittering and colorful indeed.
They can be mounted out. (Use gift boxes for this. ) Hanging
loops can be attached with a needle and green thread. They
should then be filed in their proper categories in envelopes or
small boxes. This should prove an absorbing project for children
and result in an interesting and inexpensive hobby to enjoy the
year-round.

According to John Rieck, a New York interior designer who
has made a hobby out of creating and decorating miniature
Christmas trees, this can be an endlessly absorbing and
fascinating pursuit.
' Mr. Rieck collects miniature decorations whenever and
wherever he can find them. Many antique and curio dealers have
learned of his interest, and notify him immediately when any
tiny toys or miniature objects turn up.
.
One of the best sources for tiny toys are antique doll houses.
But other prospects are endless because not all tiny objects are
necessarily antiques . When he travels, Mr . Rieck often makes .
surprising finds . For instance, he found a shop in San Salvador
that had hundreds of tiny Mickey Mouses, which are now part of
his collection.
,
Some ornaments are rare and valuable. For example, he
discovered some Austrian wax figures, Hansels and Gretels, that
were barely an inch high.
Among the other miniature obje cts Mr, Rieck is on the
lookout for are wax angels, teddy bears, toy dogs, mice, animals
of all types, shoes, doll furniture, snowmen, soldiers, sleighs,
musical instruments, bells, birds, fruit, trains and cars.
Most of these ornaments are made of wo ~d, wax or por·
celain. A few are ivory. Birthday cake candles are cut down to
represent tree lights, and colored pipe cleaners are twiSted to .
form interesting shapes.
