f KELLY’S MARKET Dawn and Lyn Bolzman Christmas Trees Recycled E Joyce - Joann - Paul - Lloyd - LuAnn Gagetown Open 7 Days A WeeK 665-2521 E To Balance Our Ecology ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ --- Each year whole forests of young spruce trees are chopped down in their prime and distAaved with decorations as Christmas trees in millions 6f Ameri- can homes. After the two-week holiday season, they are discarded. But Christmas trees can now be recycled. They can be given a second life in which their organic com- ponents can be put, to work nurturing other life. A machine known as a wood chipper instantly re- duces them to valuable garden mulch. This mulch retains soil moisture and can be ap- plied on top of snow to protect bulbs and stems of young trees and shrubs. Also, this coarse sawdust-like stuff is as good as salt or sand for improving traction on icy driveways. ***&*** Discarded Christmas Trees He1 p J ’r e v e 11 t He a ch E r o si o n Each year, hundreds of volunteers from several Long Island communities gather discarded Christmas trees in order to implant them in the fragile dunes of Fire Island across the bay, which helps to prevent the sand from being blown off and washed away.

AccordinE to leqcnd a little shepherd girl from Beth- lehem followed the shepherds on their way to the manger. ‘All the shepherds had gifts for Jesus but the little girl 8 had none. She felt very sad and unworthy about this and hung bark from the others. Just before they reached the stable, an angcl appeared in a blaze of light and scattered E lvvcly white roseb before the little girl. So she gathered them up and laid them before the manger.
