Few of us concern Ourselves with long distance disaster. If pine for- eat are being devastated and there Is dsnger Of the wood supply run ning out, we ehould worry I We're like the man who Mid, when he heard Jhat the German gtmy wAs Mhjinlymiteslioi rparis the death toll for two days numbered hundreds of thousands, "To the diehens with the wsrt test my best laying hen last night." In the old days we could get enough wood to repair the back porch for flteen dollars: Nw It takes a hundred for the same emount. We have never learned forest conservation, like the EU ropeans, and not the least of the list of numerous causes of waste is the Chrlotmas tree. We have always been guilty Of a Christmas tree In our family. We fell with the rest.

It Just wasn't Christmas without a tree. Each yeee I sttttt aifotognicctiy-to myeelr, "Oh. it's cut anyway and somebody will buy it." And I'd have siiiil It this year If the opportunity to buy a live tree that will grow outdoors Utter, hadn't turned up, But I always felt guilty And tried to prop it up in the yard after wards and pretended it was I even tied piece -efiir-pti It" for the birds to extend its pe rlod of usefulness.
