No matter whether your Christmas budget is bursting with dollars, or already badly overstrained, you'll find a gift for everyone on your list In the luggage departments of the local stores. Matched luggage sets are al ways welcome. In the Inexpen sive price group, you'll find hard-wearing striped canvas lug gage in sizes varying from over night cases to wardrobe trunks, reinforced at the necessary points with genuine saddle leath er or cowhide. Two or three of these make a most imposing gift. Also in the Inexpensive price range is a new type of luggage, made of a material which ap pears to be rawhide, without the costliness of that rich leather! This new material can stand a terrific amount of abuse, which Is certainly what we look for In luggage. You'll find nine sizes available, all priced to please. Necessity Is Mother of Invention For that great American Insti tution travelling by automobile, the stores are showing new wedge shaped luggage designed to fit the luggage compartment of your car. This does away with waste space, and each piece Is tapered to really fit. Being scuffproof and rough proof, it makes it even more dif ficult to resist. Lightweight Gift Luggage Heavy luggage can spoil most of the fun of travelling, so harken while we tell of the vir tues of some new lightweight, streamlined canvas luggage. Apt ly called "magic carpet bags," this trimly-styled luggage is bound with tan cowhide and is offered in navy brown, vr the smart new olive drab. A fine example of "modern design."

You'll find them In a wide range of. delectable colors, and In leathers real or simulated Fine for the gals from 16 to 60. For the boys in training, what could be more appropriate than the new "furlough" bag. This is really a two-ln-one bag, with room tor soiled clothing In a separate compartment under neath the regular packing area. An added feature Is two oil-silk lined pockets for carrying toilet articles. Very slick, says we, and fine for dad, as well. Little sister will behave beau tifully when your beau comes to call If you tempt her with one of the shiny new steel carry-all for roller or ice skates. She can bang it, dent It, but she can't break it. And It certainly won't bruise your budget one bit. He won't be in the dark for long if you give him one of the new folding utility kits. These are fitted with a razor that rtas an enclosed light, as well as every other necessity that the boys at camp can use. That should throw some light on the gift problem. There's nothing better for the men on your gift list than a zipper sports bag. These are available In genuine seal leather and come In the popular IB-inch size. Plaid rayon and cotton lin ings make things even more cheerful. Menus of the Day Marshvllle. Wis. F) Marsh vllle's dream of national fame has become something like a nightmare of frustration.
