AMERICA GOES BACK TO PRE-WAR

New York, Dec. 25. Old-fashioned Christmas red has staged a comeback this year as the popular colour for the season's greeting cards. After adveral years of fantastic | to-day are afr-minded and think ho colour combinations and exotle de travela by plano. algns. In orchid, aquamarine and 1936 almilar sophisticated hues, Christmas cards are back to the holly and polnaetta period.
There are solid-colour red cards
with designs in allver and white.
There are red mountings and bor- der treatments. Somo of the cards even are matched with bright red onvelopes.
Green is the second reigning favourite, or sensonal combinations of red and green. Blue is mainly confined to cards of religious in- spiration, to which its soft colour- ings are especially adapted. Com- bluations of gold and beige and brown are novel and smart, and there also are eards which sponsor a combination of corni and bright blue.
Holly and poinactins are used in a wide variety of designs, as, for example, a cord of white parch ment, silver starred, over å red overlay, with a giant holly spmy in red and silver.
Santa Claus, who has been ab- sent from most of the cards lately, appears often this year. Smooth- ing hila beard of real cotton or chat- ting with a hopeful gamin who offers to "Carry yer bag. Mister," he is depicted almost any way ex- cept with his reindeer, Children of

The "takings" From Ice Peril
OW the 5,161-tons London steamer Tower Bridge was rescued from a North Atlantic icefield last April by following the wireless directions of a ship she never saw was described in the Admiralty Court in London recently,
The unseen ship was the Liver- pool
Newfoundland steamer (6,791 tons), owned by Johnston Warren Lines, Ltd.
Sir Boyd Merriman, the presi- dent, who described it as a remarka- ble ease, said that the Tower Bridge sent out an SOS from the icefield as she was going to St. John's, and It was answered by the Newfound- land, a vessel of £115,000 value, or £250,000 adding the value of her

Tribute To Captain
The Newfoundland wirelessed directions as to how the Tower Bridge could get out of the leefteld by going east, when she would be free in 12 miles.
The latter vessel, which was boled and fighting the incoming water with her pumps, had hoped to get out by proceeding south, but the Newfoundland told her that she would need to go 60 miles in that direction.
The Tower Bridge was taken out of danger by the Newfoundland, not by the Newfoundland's towrope, but by following her into safety by means only of her wireless connec- tion.
..
The captain of the Newfoundland acted in a very praiseworthy, plucky, and prompt manner, and never hesitated about necepting the risks to his valuable ship.
The president awarded 'a total of £2,000-£1,500 to the owners of the Newfoundland, £200 to the master, and £300.to the crew.

In the past few months there has been something of a rush by Italians in Australia, where colonies of them have settled on the sugar canefields, to take out British naturalisation papers.
It is now learned (says Austral News) that numbers of relatives
of these Italiana are arriving in Australia with the same object.
An Italian liner on the regular run from Genoa to Australia, has just brought a large number. Many of them had already settled in Australin but had gone back to Italy on a visit. They are returning very much sooner than they had intended.
