The tall fuschia bush has tiny tear,drop blossoms hidden throughout Us foliage. Geraniums still bloom in porch boxes and the Christmas Cheer chrysanthemums are holding up beautifully. That peren n I a 1 rusher-of-the-season, winter Jasmine, supposed to bloom in January, or even sometimes to wait for February. Is again bloom ing goldenly in December. - A list of flowers blooming out doors in Lebanon now would 'in clude hardy carnations, blue-eyed African daisy, opalcup, pot mari golds, aubretia, candytuft, roses, hollyhocks, lavateras, Chinese for get-me-not, heather, mourning bride, echiums, nasturtiums, . lo- pezlas, honeysuckle, and even stray canterbury bells. i Fumihire . - v ' ' STREET 4 J jfftfttrrf Stationery Sure To Be Welcomed Personalized Letter Paper, : Cards Serre Well for " Thank You' Notes Write in style! That's what everyone wants to do. So a good cue to Christmas giving is sta tionery designed to please. That means "personalised" stationery letter or note paper that ex presses the personality of the writer. A very subtle compliment can be paid in the selection of such a gift. ' Newer than tomorrow is the "set of three" in stationery. Cre ated by a stationer whose name is a tradition, this particular style comes in three sixes -informal note paper, "thank-you" size, and double duty letter size. ; Color Is rampant again in sta tionery, not only in solid color paper but also in hand-water- colored edges usually In two smart shades. Monograms or initials pick up one of the colors and add a note of distinction. Did you ever thing of giving men stationery? They write let ters, too, you know. And there is custom made paper designed especially for masculine use. There are also three accepted sizes for them the large flat sheets for informal correspond ence, the folded sheet for formal acceptances, and envelope size cards for Informal "thank-you" and casual notes. This makes a gift that any mane on your list will be proun to use.
