A Colorful A dainty dresser set for sister may be made by painting with sealing wax little trays and holders which can be bought at any vai-iety store or which you probably -have around the house. Such a set la much prettier than a plain Ivory one and lends a touch of bright color to any girl's room. The sealing wax paint 13 made of the little sticks of sealing wax, which may be bought at stationery stores in all colors. For this entire set you will need three sticks of black, two of gold, and one of each of three bright colors, such as French blue, yellow,, and red. Creak each stick Into several pieces, putting each color In a sepate cup or little pan. Pour over the broken pieces Just enough denatured alcohol to cover them. Allow this to stand overnight. If the wax Is all melted in the morning and is thin enough to paint with, you are ready to go to work. You may need to add a little more alcohol to thin the paint. Use China Dishes The powder and rouge set and pin tray are of china. You need not get smoth china, as you would if painting with water colors, but you may use the rougher grade. The bud vase and picture frame can be glass or metal. You will need a small pointed brush and a medium sized brush for painting. With the large brush give the powder and rouge 'set and pin tray a coat of black. When it is dry, if it 19 not a smooth black, put on a second coat. Then you are ready to paint the design. Using the small brush, paint a gold border around the edge of the

He was born on the 25th of December. The shepherds were on the liill side and an angel came and stood by the shepherds, and they were afraid. The Wise Men and shepherds saw a great star in the east. The star kept moving across the sky until it stopped right over a barn. When the angel came she told them to go down into the town of Jiethlehem, and there they would find the Kingjthat they had been wishing for so many years. The shepherds did go, and they found the baby Jesus lying in a manger. The Wise Men gave him gifts. Since then we give gifts on Christmas. Juanita Bovd, age 8, 3A class, Greensfork, Ind.

Army Radio Engineers usy ' Improving Infantry Sets United States signal corps radio engineers are perfecting a better field radio set for army infantry units.

A board of signal corps officers has recommended that surplus vacuum tube sets be Issued to Infantry regiments for training purposes until continuous wave sets can be developed and distributed to replace the old 105s.

Howler MonkeyWhole Jungle in Matter of Noise Often in the great forests of the Amazon or the Orinoco, in South America, a tremendous noise 13 heard In the night or early morning, as if a great assemblage of mm ueaaiu were roaring and screaming together. The noise may be heard for miles, yet it is all produced by a single hawlermonkey, sitting on the branches of some lofty tree. The howler is enabled to make this extraordinary noise by means of an organ that Is possessed by no other animal. The lower Jaw is unusually deep, and this makes room for a hollow,' bony vessel, about the size of a walnut. This vessel is under the root of the tongue, and has an opening intothe windpipe by which the animal can force air into it. This increases the power of the howier'a voice to an enormous degree. The ! howlers are large and stout bodied monkeys, with bearded faces and stronsr. ErasDinir tails Tho inhoK.-t the wildest forests and it not often that the natives can mako mntivaa of them.
