So, my sweet, you’re in a quandary about what would be
exceedingly suitable for HIM . . . you know, the only man
in your life. Your worries should be at least partially over.
The women’s page staff, with all their usual amiability, have
put their curly heads together and evolved a list of sugges
tions which ought to bring one Bright Idea, anyhow, to your
mind.
In case lie's in the Armed
Forces, or in case he isn't, too,
he would appreciate a writing
case, which is all fitted up with
paper, pencil, envelopes, and
pockets for stamps and unan
swered letters, and even has a
place for addresses. You can get
paper all decorated with insignia
for whichever branch of the ser
vice he happens to be in.
He might like a duffle bag for
his shaving things. You can
find very elegant ones, too, which
have all the shaving things in
them.
A leather kit containing brush
es, a comb, a soap box and other
aids to looking grand enough to
please the colonel or sergeant, or
somebody like that, would be
most acceptable.
In case you don’t know him too
awfully well but don’t want him
to forget you entirely, send him
a carton or three of his favorite
cigarettes. The cigarette compan
ies are most co-operative about
getting them to his camp.
A non-breakable mirror will
solve some of his packing wor
ries ... he can be sure he won't
end up with bits of shattered
glass in his handkerchiefs and
seven years of horrible luck to
haunt him.
A box of shoe shine things,
that is a miracle of neatness and
compactness, won’t break your
bank account in half, yet will do
lots of good service.
Nobody appreciates a mending
kit quite as much as a poor man
who has lost some buttons or ac
quired a hole and who hasn’t any
needles or thread or buttons. If
you provide him with these
things, he will sooner or later
call you thrice-blessed.
If he’s a rabid checker play
er, you might give him a minute
box containing the board and
checkers, which all packs into
nothing, practically, and is made
bo the checkers won’t fall .
V/hoosh . . . off the board if the
game is supported on the play
ers’ knees.
Then there is always the mat
ter of FOOD! Cookies are per
fect ... or maybe he loves fancy
ciieeses ... or possibly some un
usual jams with fancy crackers
