PUZZLE-UPS ... An enlarged version of “Puzzle-Ups” shows how this educational toy challenges and rewards children by testing their learning ability. Since all pieces in each puzzle in the set are inserted at different heights, and since all pieces can be moved, eyes rotate, wheels revolve, clock faces change. Children combine enjoyment with practice in manual dexterity.
Cookies Add Flavor
To Happy Holidays
C is for cookies — The nicest Christmas trees ever are those trimmed with garlands of popcorn and cranberries and home made cookies. It’s an old-fashioned idea that few mothers take time for any more. Even if you prefer your tree laden with tinsel and lights and expensive ornaments, don’t overlook the joy of making cookies for Christmas. It adds a warm and hospitable aroma to the house and gives children an inner happiness that can never be bought or forgotten.

Origins
The ancient northern Europeans, acutely conscious of the peregrinations of the Sun, formed definite theories about it.
They thought the sun was a wheel revolving around the earth, and they observed that on one particular day in midwinter its appearance and disappearance marked the shortest day of the year.
This cycle was known to them as the Hweol, and it was a time of celebrating.
