A USE FOR GREETING CARDS.
SOMETHING TO DO
Every year brings a fresh collection of Christmas and New Year cards. What to do with them is often a problem; it seems barbarous to throw them away. Make use of them, instead. Sort out the double cards, throw away tile centre and use the covers for menu cards on special occasions. Fasten a few pieces of cloth together, pink the edges, and thread ribbon through a cover and the layers of cloth, and you have a small present for games—an inkwiper. Using flannel in place of cloth gives a lady's prize—a dainty needle-case. Children's cards can be made into jolly scrap-books for homo or hospital, or gummed on cardboard boxes for wastepaper baskets, keeping children amusecf on wot days.
