PAGE EIGHT ___ THE POST, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 15, 1950 LIGHTED HOME EXPRESSES CHRISTMAS CHEER Pollow any one of the four Christmas lighting schemes shown in the photographs above or plan your own by combing those fea- tures that best suit your home and family, By planning your outdoor holiday lighting early, you .avoid the disappointment of hastily planned decorations. Early plan- ning also gives you an opportunity to find new ways to use your pres- Ji ent equipment, and gives you an opportunity to choose new equip- ment wisely. If you want your home to express all the yuletide happiness your family feels during the Christmas holidays, plan your outdoor lighting " now. Early planning not only gives you a chance to work up some ideas, but allows time for making some of your own outdoor lighting decora- tions. Holiday can be as individual as the family that occupies each home. They don't need to be elaborate or ex: pensive to express your Christmas ‘sentiments to the world. ; New Ideas Whether. you're an old hand at outdoor lighting arrangements or are lighting your home for the first time this year, you'll find many ideas In the four photographs above that you can duplicate, A careful study of the. archi- tectual lines of your house may provide the theme of your outdoor lighting decorations as they did in ‘home shown in the photograph at lighting arrangements ® the extreme top above. The three natural peaks on the roof of the house suggested an ideal back- ground for three giant Christmas tree outlines. As you can see, strings of colored outdoor lights are fastened to the house in the form of a Christmas tree and each topped with a lighted star, Notice how the complete design is held together with the lighted greeting. There are many types of lighted signs which you can use to express your holiday greet'ngs. If you have a basement workshop you may want to fashion your own. Simply cut each letter of the greet- ing from composition board; mount on a shallow trough-like frame and mount lights behind each letter. Novel Arrangement New home owners will enjoy the novelty of ty:ng the front of their house like a Christmas package, as shown in the photograph on the upper left. Use red oilcloth or other weatherproof material for the ribbon effect and mount a com- position board “gift” tag with a “Merry Christmas’ message above the door. In the home pictured above, the yuletide spirit was carried to the windows where a pair of black and white composition board snowmen were fastened to each shutter, To give the decorations the effect of a package tied in crisp white tissue paner, the house was lichted with 150-watt PAR-38. floodlights con- cealed behind the shrubbery. A PAR-38 spotlight, placed in front of the tree to the right of the door was aimed toward the greet- ing card to make its message clear- ly visible, Traditional Scheme For those who enjoy a more tra- ditional decorating theme, simple lighted wreaths at each window and lighted festooning around the first floor windows and over the door will give a pleasing effect, as illustrated by the photograph in the center right above. When using festooning with colored lights, here are a few points that you will want to keep in mind: Drape the festoons toward the fo- cal point in the lighting scheme. Use the warmest colors in your lighting arrangement where you want to concentrate attention and cooler colors away from the cen- ter of interest. Floodlights, lighted festooning and a lighted greeting were all used to give a holiday air to the large home, shown in the photograph on the lower right above. Notice how the lighted evergreen wreath with its ‘‘Seasons Greetings” was plac- ed between the two large front windows. Simple lighted festoons around the windows; the door tree, placed in front of the left window and colored lights along the side porch, provide a simple but effective holiday arrangement. Two PAR-38 150-watt floodlights, placed at each end of the line of shrubbery in front of the house emphasize the white exetrior. If you prefer to bathe your house in colorful light, color roundel at- tachments may be added to your outdoor flood or spot lights, Both the 150-watt projector flood and spotlights are weatherproof and have their own built-in re- flector. Remember, the floodlamp has twice the beam width of the spotlight, while the spotlight con- centrates much more light in its narrower beam, Harveys Lake Lions Plan Christmag Party Plans for a Christmas party to be held December 27 starting at 8:30 at Herman Kern's were made at ‘the meeting of Harveys Lake Lions Club Wednesday. Program will include carol sing- ing, dancing and presentation of gifts to the ladies. Members of the club made plans to place con- tainers for the Vacation-For-The Blind project in local business places. The purpose of the promo- tion is to afford blind persons the opportunity to enjoy a summer vacation at the Lewistown, Pa. summer camp. Veterans Pace Borough Five Dallas Quintet May Be The Team To Beat Dallas Borough Basketball team, has sx lettermen returning, plus a few youthful members of last year's JayVees, placing it high among the contenders for League championship. Picked by the Post as the sleeper for this season, Dal- las has an excellent chance to cop the title this year and bring it back to the case from which it has been missing since 1947. With Jack Piznar and Frank Pavlick, both second team All Star choices last season, to lead the veteran squad Dallas should prove troublesome to all the teams in the league. Dallas lost only Bruce Roberts, an honorable mention se- lection from last year’s All Star team. Veterans Piznar, Pavlick, Ned McGarry, Dave Evans, Lowell Roberts and Bob Stair, all of whom earned letters last year, have re- turned for the season. Hughestown, Pittston will furnish the opposi- tion in pre-season exhibition games.
