Christmas publication includes "Christmas in Seventeen Seventy-Six" by Anne Hollingsworth Wharton, which seems like a strange inclusion for an older Canadian publication. Things to Make section includes all sorts of pretend items made out of cardboard, shoeboxes, old handkerchiefs, magazines, etc. Parents of today may be surprised to discover one of them is a "realistic machine gun which can also be used as a Ranger Tommy Gun." Canadian Line Materials was a Canadian electrical manufacturing company which eventually specialized in civil defense sirens.
