By Jean Prentice TIE traditional candle in the window at Christmas time may still radiate Its message of cheer to the visitor or passerby. But thanks to modern science, it need no longer constitute a Are hazard. Today, there are many types of electric candles, made up singly and in sets, that neither sputter, blow nor drip wax. Inexpensive they are, too, which commends them to even the most modest of Christmas budgets. Unlike their wax cousins, they may be used over and over again. And when combined with holly or garland, and placed on the window sill, they help to create a decorative scheme that is a real Joy to all beholders.

The annoyance in replacing a i burned-out bulb on a darkened i string has been greatly lessened, for there are now available new • ones that remain lighted when one ■ of their brothers burns out. i In the past, no element of decoration has been more a part of Christmas than light. Now that light has been incorporated in the holly wreaths and garlands we associate with the season, holiday decorai ttons should be more beguiling than ever.
