F. Robson, Connaught street. é There is nothing quite like a colorfully lighted evergreen tree to transform your home outdoors into a Christmas fairy- land. A well decorated tree outdoors can create both sym- metry and mood by the careful use of lights and color. If your trees and shrubbery are lopsided, don't be. d'scour- aged, for they can become symmetrical by using a few lighting tricks. You don't have to prune them and it's advis- able not to do so, First, fasten two screw eyes to the ends of two short, narrow pieces of wood, and then securely tape | these to the top of your tree and fasten the ends securely into the ground with wooden pegs. Then fasten your strings of outdoor lights to the wires, rather than to the branches of the tree, running them' first straight up and down the tree, then arranging more strings of lights in graceful loops, merely by draping the strings horizon- tally over the wire frame. Tape them to the wires for support. ACCENT SHAPE This technique can also be used over well-shaped trees to accent their symmetry. String- ing lights in this conical pat- tern emphasizes the towering symmetry of a large evergreen tree, and adds considerable to your over-all outdoor de¢ora- tion. Another way:to decorate your tree is the -"scattered lights' method, where Christmas lights} are strung round and round)! the tree. | For the number of Christmas lights to put on any tree, here is a formula which is he'pful:| Multiply the height of the tree| by the width of its base, times) 15 and then multiply this) by 2 if you want a solid light) effect, or by 1 if a tree outline; only is required. Thus for a tree} four feet wide by six feet high,| to get a solid effect you will meed: 7 x 6 x 4 x 15 for a door prize, the members ex-! changed gifts.
