E-22 Society-Home ■Ask DOROTHY DRAPER Now's the Time to Plan Your Christmas Decorations Are you beginning to feel "Christmas-y”? You should! Santa Claus is warming up his reindeer or his rocket or whatever he is using these days, so you had better begin planning how to decorate for a Merry Christmas. It doesn’t have to be an elaborate plan or an expen sive one. In fact, those that call for ingenuity instead of dollars often turn out to be the most fun. Let’s start with the front door. What are you going to do this year to let people know that yours is a Merry Christmas house? A whole small Christmas tree, tied to the knocker and trimmed with bells fastened with red ribbons makes a gay tinkling sound every time a friend comes to call. A big red bow at the base of the tree looks cheery against a dark green door. Or cut out the shape erf a huge boot from shiny red oilcloth. Tack to the door and fill it with prickly Christ mas boughs decorated with balls that sparkle when the door is opened. Or hang a bow-trimmed basket filled with wrapped 10-cent store gifts and Christmas greens on the door and let each de parting guest take home a ”fun” gift. Whatever you do, get into the spirit and Begin now to .plan. You’ill hear from us later. We aren’t through with Christmas by any means! Questions, Answers Mrs. H. B.

Fill it with china and pretty and prac tical pieces. Face the cabinet toward the dining area and use the kitchen side to hang shiny pots. Or use an attrac tive shutter or wallpaper screen. Why not get a vivid turquoise and black print on a white background for your curtains. (Copyright IPflO.
