Merchants are reporting a brisk trade in every variety of merchan dise. Never, they say, boa buying extended more generally over the merchandise field. With few -exceptions there have been no par ticular runs on any stocks. Kvery thlng is selling well. "1 hardly know where to con centrate my sales," declared a shopkeeper whoso wares are most subject to whims and fancies. U there Is any markVd prefer ence. It is for goods of the better clatfs. People are spending their money more freely than they have since the days just after the war. Chiffon hose and silk lingerie crllerions of prosperity have pass ed over the counters in quantities sufficient to satisfy the whole fem inine population of the community. Kmart sweaters, daihty negligees and literally thousands, of flower like kerchiefs have been purchased it the reudy-to-wear departments. Wrist wutchea have, been popular. sellers at the Jewelry stores, with cigarette cases and toilet urtleles In close competition. Among "the gifts that inenlke," scarfs of handsome designs nnd fine texture have found favor. AJl kinds of clothing, even to suits and over coals, have numbered among the holiday purchases. Toy departments have yielded wagouloads of engines that go and dolls with a dozen talents. There has been a preference for the bet ter class of playthings toys that instruct as well us amuse, , Music boxes that bided their time since grandmother's day came forth in rejuvenated glory this sea- wh. v imsunas irees, and even powder jars und atomizers, tinkle merrily at the art counters. . The American love of bright colors has been demonstrated In the popularity of the gay oriental casts., Some of them that achieve a high degree of art and consequent ex- penslveness have been the best sellers. In short; the shoppers are buy ing what they want to give with less attention to the cost. And from the records of sales, Santa is going to pack a heavy load this Christmas. in- a i is i.f.avk I'tm sori ii CHICAGO (AC) Ited Grange and the Chicago Hears, his pro fessional football team mates, left Monday for Florida.
