Family Can Join to
Furnish Entire New
. Room This Christmas
If you seek a lasting gift . . .
give something for the home.
That's the counsel of home
economists who consider the
American home the first line of
defense,
A wide variety of home gifts
are now on display in the stores
Whether it be the refurnishing of
some room or corner, whether it
be a gift for dad, mother, sister
or brother, youll find a plentiful
selection at the stores.
Here's one of the secrets that
most merchants know: Women like
the novelties and new Ideas, but
men prefer the old standbys.
Dad still wants a comfortable
cnair; smokers are on many
Christmas lists and receive a
warm welcome. Many men have
an unfulfilled and unasked-for
dream of a desk of their very own:
Reading lamps are another item
craved by men, who want bright,
masculine lighting equipment. "7
More for Father
A radio for his own use, "because
he likes the news broadcasts and
the fight reports while the kids
are listening to dramatic episodes
or dance bands, will please many
a father.
For mother, tops is a chair for
her very own self, and, as with
men, a desk is wanted badly by
many women. Feminine lamps,
with decorative base and shade,
are wanted by many; sewing cab
inets, many of them so built as
to serve also as chair-side, bedside
or hall table; mirrors of many
types are being shown, and most
homes have too few of them.
Hostess trays and small appli
ances are likewise offered, and
make excellent gifts. Dinnerware
and tea sets are items which many
a woman craves.
While smaller items have been
listed in the preceding paragraphs,
many a family longs for a suite
to replace the "hand-me-downs"
which served as initial furnishings
after the wedding.
Whether it be an upholstered
living room suite, a dining room
to replace "that round golden oak
thing," or a new bedroom, you'll
find that many families lump their
assets at Christmas time, and give
a gift "from the family to the
home," which all may enjoy.
Buying on Budget Plan
And it is still possible to obtain
furnishings on one budget or in
stallment plan or another.
The recently invoked federal
regulations do not, as many have
supposed, cut off buying on time
payments. They have simply made
tegular practice the terms offered
fcy the conservative stores for
snany years.
A down payment of 10 per cent,
18 months to pay the balance, and
minimum monthly payments of $5
(after the first of the year) are
the principal points involved. The
down payment for furniture,

which is not a defense item, is
less than many other commodities.
For refrigerators and washing
machines, a 20 per cent down
payment is required, which is still
less than the "one-third down"
exacted for automobiles. The 18
month payment period holds true
for these other commodities as
well.

Vou. tan bank on it that the army, the navy, the marines and the
-1 . V$0,' are well under way with plans to make this Christmas
merry one for all the boys in the service. But you can also rest
assured of the fact that the biggest thrill of all, that those boys will
get this Yuletide, will be wrapped in pa'ckages on which the return
address is HOME.
Choosing gifts for men in the service is not so difficult a task
after all, says Santa Claus after prolonged consultation with the offi
cials who know. The lives the boys are now leading have changed to
the point where their desires are easily defined.
The gifts should be useful, contributing to their comfort, their
entertainment and. also to their insatiable appetite for sweets. The
gifts should be as compact and as efficient as is their new way of life.
Here is a list that will help you make your selection.
CAMERAS To give a cam
era is to assure enough pictures
of the boy who has gone away.
When giving this gift be sure
to Include a good supply of
films.
SCARFS The best and only
to consider when giving a scarf
or other wearing apparel, is the
traditional army color, Olive
drab. For added warmth make
the fabric choice wool and send
gloves to match.
HANDKERCHIEFS Most
army men never seem to have
enough. Choose white, durable,
monogrammed handkerchiefs.
EAR MUFFS AND WRIST
LETS Where the weather is
cold, ear muffs and warm wrist
lets will help keep icy blasts of
wind from creating too much
havoc with personal comfort.
If possible, buy them in Olive
Drab.
PIPE, CIGARETTES If he
smokes, good gifts would be
cartons of cigarettes; a pipe
with it's own pouch to hold to
bacco; and also a huge box of
pocket matches to . keep him
well supplied, even after
Christmas.
CHRISTMAS BOX A box
filled with all kinds of sweets
and good things to eat would
prove a welcome treat in any
camp. Candy, crackers, cookies,
and to top it off, that symbol
of masculine delight choco
late cake will bring some of
the luxury of home to an army
bunk.
RADIO He may have music
sports, and world " news
wherever he goes if you re
member to send the battery
operated radio in preference to
the plug-in type.
SHAVING KIT The com
pact leather case packed with
all shaving needs even to an
unbreakable mirror would
prove most welcome and use
ful. WRIST WATCH When giv
ing a watch, check as to wheth
er it is dustproof, waterproof,
and perhaps most Important of
all "shockproof. A reliable
make with a second hand that
is guaranteed to keep accurate
time is the only type watch to
consider giving a soldier.
LUGGAGE Every man in
the service gets leave, and he'll
travel in style with a trim
suitcase that does not take up
too much room in camp, yet
will hold all essentials needed
for the longest leave granted.
WRITING KIT For use in
limited quarters, give a writing
kit that holds not only writing
paper, but pen, pencil, bottle of
ink, and blotter, all zippered
neatly into one leather case.
FLASHLIGHT There is a
diversity of choice flashlights,
and although the hand variety
is most popular, there are new
types that clasp around the
wrist or buckle onto the belt,
thus leaving both hands free.
Have his name engraved on it.
Most amazing of all about the list of gifts for the boys in the
service, they may be selected conveniently from among the wide
stocks of any number of stores in the citv. There's
about where to get something. The onlv thins to hp
is buying them without delay and mailing them off to the boys, early

A Few Tips From Santa Claus
Bigger boys love novelty sweat
ers and sports jackets, especially,
those colorful styles that combine
woven and knittecWabric in panel
front arrangements. .They get a
big kick out of "wild" pajamas
and colorfully plaided flannel
shirts; a new tie will win them
any time, especially if its blended
with a new shirt and topped with
& new tie clasp (sets of three
come all packaged in cellophane) ;
sharpie socks in stripes that
knock your eye out will "convince
them that you're the best of San
ta Clauses.
: Don't let's forget the boys. They
like to get gifts-to-wear, too. The
little boys, up to six, love any
thing that smacks of the military
cotton knit suits with embroid
ered shoulders for trimming;
flannel robes with brass buttons
and aviation insignia; snow suits
that are in the military style.
To appease her Vanity; the gift
of a very dramatic dresser set Is
the most exciting possible gift
choice. Particularly effective are
those, made out of Lucite; clear as
crystal; snuu-tiy chunky; and suit
able for traditional, as well as
modern rooms. '
Every girl likes belts and this
year's crop , offers enough choice
to ease the troubled gift giver.
All are made with an eye to whit
tling, down inches, and she will
find the many different ornaments
and "clasps with which they are
decorated intriguing!
With the Increase of home sew
ing going on, this Christmas finds
gadgets useful to the dressmaker
very, welcome as gifts that will be
helpful year 'round. Fascinating
are pinking shears which create
a non-raveling sawtooth edge, as
