QUESTION —M. Carver writes: What a surprise in our gar
den when we discovered the local nursery supplied us with

QUESTION Betsy Dehn, Spencerville, Md., writes that
when she was young, there was a story that went something
like this; It was nearing the Christmas holidays and the apple
tree was feeling sad and forlorn. His branches were bare and
plain whereas the pine tree was decorated with tinsel and glit
ter. The apple tree complained to God and God said to the
apple tree that he would give the tree a special gift. Betsy
doesn’t remember the remainder of the story, but God ended
up putting a Christmas star in the heart of each apple. If you
cut an apple crosswise, you will find a perfectly shaped five
point star in the heart of the apple. Betsy would like to have the
complete story of how the star came to appear in the center of
the apple.
QUESTION Shirley Baer. New Freedom, would like
handmade aluminum made during the late 1930 s and 19405,
