FOR TOMORROW Stick to routine affairs now. Planetary influences are not especially auspicious for launching new_ enterprises-- especially in the a.m. Gener- ous aspects govern home and family interests, however; also written matters and communi- cations generally. FOR THE BIRTHDAY If tomorrow is your birthday, your horoscope indicates a most pleasant year ahead, Job and monetary gains are indicated, with emphasis on occupational and-or business boosts in late February, late March, May, '|June and October; on financse, in early March, mid-July, Octo- ber and November. Do avoid speculation and-or extravagance in January and June, however. For the Sagittarian, this is a truly big year for romance, with January, late March, mid- June and September notably aspected in this connection.

Home-made de- corations and recipes from old cookbooks are used to recreate the holiday atmosphere of the Upper Canada of about 100 years ago. Shirley McManus, in charge of the Christmas party, says anyone could do it. "It's a lot of work, but it is fun." Mrs. 'McManus is secretary to the director of the Toronto Historica!

We have done a lot of research on it." Almost all of the decorations are hand - made. Once they would probably have been family. The most colorful is the kiss- ing ball which hangs in a door- mesh as a frame for the ball, ery, small fruits and berries, mistletoe at the bottom, you have a kissing ball.

During the 10-day open house, token amounts of old dessert recipes are cooked on the wood stove at Mackenzie house: Mrs. McManus found some of them in a cookbook dating from the period and entitled Domestic Cooking for the Family by a Lady, Mrs. Rundel.
