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.
