WORCESTER. England, ' UP 1 Christmas day in the workhouse won’t be the hoboes’ delight it used to In hero this year It’s going to he hone a dry, soft-drinks dcditslon as a result of the workhouse authorities’ decision to put a ban on free beer as an aid to the Yuletide festivities. Time was when the "aristocracy of the road," who put in at the work house here on Christmas day, could count on a tankard of beer with their dinner. The inducement became so strong that tramps from Land’s End to John o' Groats made a bee-line for Worcester on Christmas week. This year the authorities decided that if they continued to offer free beer the number of “guests" might be more then they could cope with So all the hoboes are going to get with their Christmas dinner this year are soft drinks, tea, coffee, and to-
bacco.
Dr. Winona Welch gave a pleasing and informal talk to the members of the Association of University Women on Tuesday evening on the subject of Christmas greens. Dr. Welch prefaced her talk by an outline of the influences that have come into the American celebration of Christmas from various countries from Rome, from the Orient, from the South American countries, from Scandinavia, and from Germany. She discussed the various names used for the patron saint of Christmas, and she traced the use of file tree to an incident in the life of Martin Luther. Among the various greens which Dr. Welch showed and described were the balsam fir, the spruce, the hemlock, the arbor vitae, juniper, pine, mistletoe, holly, Jerusalem cherry, club moss, butcher's broom, and poinsettia. She gave several details about the cuture of the greens which are used at Christmas time, telling which are native to the state of Indiana, and describing the ranches in other states where a business is made of supplying Christmas trees, holly, and other decorations for the scrmhi. + +-I- + 4-4-4- + Miss Ostrmn Honored At I.iineheon Shower Mrs. Harold B.

SOUTH SEES NEWSPRINT AS NEW INDUSTRY
had no
WASHINGTON, HIP' The combined findings of the U. S, forest service and an expert chemist may form the basis for a huge new industry in the south manufacture of
newsprint from southern pine.
The forest service is taking a census of national timber resources and up to Oct. 1 had covered more than 100,000,000 acres in southern states,
much of it in pine areas.
Dr. Charles H. Herty, chemist and res< arch chemist, is working with i Jeorgia on a co-operative project to determine tin* suitability of southern
pine for making newsprint.
Dr. Herty is said to be well along in his experiment. The department of agriculture's forest products laboratory at Madison, Wis., is doing
work along the same lines.
If Herty’s project succeeds, groups interest in establishing the industry can employ the forest service census to determine the availability ami lo-

cation of suitable southern pine for-j the shores and
ests. The latter survey, however, will not be completed for four or five years, officials said. If emergency funds are withdrawn and the forest service is required to fail back on the original $3,000,000 appropriation for this work, it might not be finished in
20 years.
The first completed survey covers about 25,000 000 gross acres of hardwood area in the Mississippi delta. Work in the south now is centered on 50,000.000 to 60.000.000 acres of long leaf and slash pine from which are derived virtually all national naval • stores such as rosin and turpentine. Some work has been done among the pine lands of Mississippi, Texas, Louisiana and Tennessee, the latter in connection witli TV A proj-

It is a simple, churchly, Christmas offering plan by which the members of a church take the money they would ordinarily spend for gifts to their friends and give it to the church instead.

Those who do n6t got the cards some day this week will receive their Sunday at the church. Further announcements will he made regarding this plan and about the Christmas service.
