Here Are Some Hints for Last Minute
Christmas Shoppers, Varied Gifts
DECORATE WITH CARDS
Christmas cards are much too
handsome to be stacked on the
table, and there won't be time to
enjoy them unless they're set out
to be seen. Plan now how to use
them for room decoration, here
is an idea1 for a big brightener for
wall. Buy a long sheet of me
tallic paper next trip down town,
gold, silver, red, green, blue,
Decide which color according to
the color scheme of the room. Un
roll the paper at home, but don't
flatten it. Each end will curl na
turally to make a scroll. - The
wrong side of the paper which the
scroll ends show can be faced
with the same paper or a con
trasting shade. Use strong stick-
on tape to attach the scroll to a
painted walL Cut a strip much
longer than the width of the pa
per, attach each strip to the back
of the scroll end and fold the ends
of the tape back to stick to the
wall. Use thumb tacks under the
scrolls on a papered wall. Attach
the cards to the scroll with colored
pins or rubber cement which can
bo rolled off the backs later.

Jpearance of
long considera
tion when they
are received.
A new all-plastic traveling kit
is most inexpensive and just the
thing for the college girl, busi
nesswoman or housewife who
goes on trips to visit her folks.
The kit weighs only six and a
half pounds and has an outside
case with a new jam proof zip
per which will catch in nothing
since the zipper is on plastic
tracks and has no teeth. Inside
.you will find all-plastic con
tainers for cologne, shampoo,
perfume, soap, toothbrush,
creams and powder. The all-plastic
bottles can be used at homo
and are unbreakable. The con
tainer makes a good glove, hand
kerchief or hose case between
trips.
What to give expectant parents
or the parents, of a new baby is
solved by a contour water-repel-lant
sheet for a crib. It is easily
washed, needs no ironing and has
elasticized ends to hold it firmly
in place on the mattress. It comes
In white, pink, blue, maize or
green.
For the homemaker there are
new shower curtains of fiber
glass that will not absorb water,
burn, stain, stretch, shrink or
mildew. They come in a variety
of solid colors, in stripes or in
an all over stylized floral design.
This is really a durable, luxuri
ous gift.
A delightful gift for people
who like conversation pieces in
their entertainment aids are
curio glasses designed by Fred
Diamond. These have ancient
musical instruments, weather
vanes and antique glass bottles
in black, white and gold decora
tions on the glass. They come in
a variety of sizes and are mod
erately priced.
