Xmas and New Year Cards.
Mr. Hugh Millar, manager of Millar’s Book and Stationery Depot, has secured a sample book of celluloid Xmas and New Year cards. In all there are twenty dozen, and no two are alike. These are all handpainted, and the design of every one is exquisite. When Mr. Millar has sample displayed in his show window our readers will agree with us that they are the finest ever seen in Warwick.

Christmas Stocking
All children love Christmas stockings, but they are usually expensive, so why not make up your own Christmas gifts. Use an old sock for a pattern and cut the stocking out of coarse net. Dye the net red and sew up. Then you can fill it with sweets, nuts, fruit, story books, toy ships and cars, handkerchiefs – anything you think you friends might like. By making the stockings up yourself you will be sure to give your friends the gift they need.

Homemade Christmas Gifts
Three broomsticks and a chopping board, a little time and a gay shade – and you have that most attractive addition to the lighting in any room, a standard lamp. The flex runs up the hollow left between the broomsticks when joined together, and a batten fitting to hold the sticks completes the framework. The shade can be made from buckram, tinted to suit your room and fixed to the wire frame with wool. With the woodwork painted or varnished to your liking there could be no more finished lampshade for a lonely corner.

A Novel Christmas Decoration.
You can save expense on your decorations for the festive season, and give them an individual touch at the same time, making your own holly berries. Take as many dried peas as you require, melt a little red sealing wax, and dip the peas in, coating them smoothly; while they are still warm pierce each pea with a piece of fine wire, when dry form into sprays to be used with foliage.

My Christmas.
When I was asking all my friends
To tea on Christmas Day,
I though p’r’aps Santa Claus would like
To come along and play.
And so I sent a little note
To ask him any way.
He never wrote to say he’d come,
But when we were at tea
He tip-toed down the chimney place
As quiet as could be,
And brought a lot of splendid toys
For all my friends and me.
