Hawaiian Christmas Is Elaborate Affair Although many Hawaiian) have aeon ice only a> f.uaen in mechanical refrigerator), the trees used by the islanders foe Chrirtmas decoration) are painted while to simulate snow. Christmas dinner is an elaborate affair, enjoyed in the privacy of the home behind locked doors and drawn blinds. Any open-house hospitality to an economic impossibility; if the shades were not drawn and the doors not locked, homes would be invaded by hordes of strangers—all expecting food and drink. Gift-giving is the order of the day as everyone exchanges inexpensive presents. Even the servants in hotels expect and receive gifts from over-night guests. Imtggd as Wreath, Haag Belle, Omaaeate ea Deer Instead of the conventional wreath on the outside of the door why not string some bells and tree ornaments on narrow baby ribbon and hang from a huge red bow* “ Make your door and window frames bright and cheerful by framing them with ribbon and sprigs of holly. You turn hang the ribbon in festoons across the curtain* gnd tie at the aides in wide sash bows for colorful effect. "PEACE ON BARTH TO MEN OF GOOD WILt,”
