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.

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.

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.

tion in pre-season exhibition

dangerous team in the league and
predicts that it will be a race to
the wire between his five and the
Katies.
