Railway Express Sees Big Season With business recovery making rapid strides, all signs point to an exceptionally busy season for local manufacturers, retail stores and the public generally in the opinion of H. E. Carter, agent of Railway Express Agency. Carter bases his opinion on advoices received from his company instructing him to be prepared for the handling of an unusual volume of gift shipments expected this year and to arrange for prompt deliveries, even on Christmas day. "We are joining all others urging the public to shop and shave," said Carter. "Yet habiless are hard to change. The way our retail districts and stores there are jammed with customers until Christmas eve indicates that some people still will wait until the last moment before completing their holiday buying. But speed of express shipping has noticeably increased in recent years and that helps to make up for tardiness in forwarding gift shipments to go out of town. For latecomers, course, there is available the later achievement of high-speed shipping—air express—which can aid."

Cutting Yuletide Trees Regulated Christmas tree poachers in California forests face the risk and consequences of apprehension by Uncle Sam's officers. The United State forest service has assigned officers again this year to safeguard forests from trespassers who cut and haul trees without written permit. State law provides a stiff penalty for Christmas tree poachers, so a forest service patrol is also checking truck shipments of trees along main highways for proper clearance papers. Forest rangers note that regulated tree harvesting is distinctly beneficial to overstacked forest lands. Trees are taken only in areas where thinning is necessary. Over 50,000 trees are harvested each Christmas season in California national forests, according to forest service records.

YOUR HOME AND MINE BY ANNE WILSON Even though we Californians do not have snow to help make us feel" like Christmas, we can en-ender the holiday spirit in other ways, such as decorating our lawns and homes with light. In this way, our houses will be glowing Christmas cards, spreading cheer to all who pass by. The pleasant custom of Yuletide outdoor lighting began when some imaginative person strung some lights on a living Christmas tree on its lawn. Today, all kinds of things are illuminated: not only fir, spruce and deodar trees, but any kind; and leaves, shrubs, doorways, statuary, columns, hedges and garden walls. One nice thing about lighting your home for Christmas is that when you have finished, it is entirely your accomplishment. You can let your imagination suggest things and you can work out your ideas, just as you please. As a starter, step across the street and take a critical look at your house. Carefully study its architectural and landscaping features which might lend themselves to lighting, then work out your plan to make the most of these individual characteristics. If you are clever at those manners, you can make various kinds of decorations, such as silhouettes, figures and stars.
