MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MElfrOKp, OREGON. FRIDAY. DECEMBER 13, 1935. PAGE ELEVEN Helpful Hints to Men In Christmas Shopping Hy Janet Wray Smith ( ;V.!;:r.;H, attention! Knowing ; : l Mr. A veracc M.m must be in his iu.i.uJl panic and state of procrastt n.tiioa at tlie thought of buying Christina gifts, we organized ouvseif Into a committee of one to go out and see whut we could see in local shops and stores In the way of gift suggestions. We realize that most men will have wives or feminine friends and. relatives to whom they must give something, and said males are now beginning to get that hunt ed look. When they finally work up enough courage to actually start out buying, they usually become afflicted with a bad case of stammers upon being confronted by a saleslady and end up by taking the first thing handy In order to escape as soon as possible. Before we go into details, here is a general suggestion: Engage the aid of a mutual feminine friend, if possible. Don't be afraid to take advantage of the saleslady's knowledge, and don't wait until Christmas Eve to do some thing about it. First, we mention Jewelry, not only because It Is so eminently acceptable, but because your choice is practically unlimited, both as to price and type. We noticed some particularly nice gold sequin evening bngs, a small luxury any woman would appreciate; also, for the woman who takes an Interest in her home, sets of four silver ash trays for a dining table, which may also be used as nut-cups, and a silver "preference cigarette box for the home, with compartments for different brands. Sliver dressing seta are very fashionable this year, as are also the old-fashioned Carmen bracelets In yellow gold, which may now be bought with matching com pact. And .tpe&king of compacts, the newest we saw were "streamlined" t& metal finish and Jewelled. And by the way, your mother or aunt or wife probably has a silver ware pattern which is still Incom plete, and we know she would appre ciate additions. If you don't know the pattern, the store from which it was purchased can tell you. And you husband one of the nicest things you can buy your wife is lingerie. (I can see you shrink nt the thought of making such a pur chase.) Here again, it's a good idea to enlist the aid of a female- friend. Shops and stores are lull of lovely lingerie of all kinds, and particularly lounging pajamas, many of which are smart and plain enough to be used by the hostess receiving informally. It's difficult to go. wrong on those. We also noticed two rather un usual gifts vrry suitable for slightly more impersonal presentations, say for an aunt: artificial potted plants extremely life-llko and colorful, and a set consisting of transparent flll-pure-sllk umbrella and raincoat. In bright colors, the cont coming folded Into a matching ease the size of a convenient handbag. Also in this category come such ( things as book club memberships, credit cards at beauty shops, magazine subscriptions books, etc. Very special we call the white clover honey, genuine maple syrup and maple honey that we found put uo in notterv contain unrf rtw-ir. tive bottles (which may be used for ciecantera when contents are gone) all sealed un with wax and m&icin? superb gift packages. And the are goou ior mat impersonal list that presents such a problem. We advise you to look these up. 6 AN DIEGO. CaU Deo. 13. Pj A steel -nerved young wireless oper ator, his right hand mangled in a motor on the tuna clipper San Lucas, directed his own rescue by a coast guard plane. "Excuse the bum sending," tapped Gordon Smith, 20, when the flying ship took off from here on a 350 mile race down the Mexican coast. "I Just got my fingers taken off, and I never sent with my left hand before." As the plan flew through the dark ness on the return trip, Lieut- L. D. Carson, naval medical officer, ampu tated the ragged stumps of four fin gers. Only a mild sedative sustained the plucky patient. ,35, 10 ROSEBURQ, Ore., Dec. 13. t'AP) Mrs. Frances Catherine Rookard, 95 years of age, died here today a? the result of burns received yesterday at her home at Tenmlle.
