May 10 U.R Celeste Holm's pals get no fancy presents from her on birthdays or Holidays. All that comes in the mall is a penny postcard. And somehow they don't seem to mind. Because the poitcard reads: A CAKE fiackage ia be ne a n t in a Vtrttala BUePhenea your name to a hungry child overseas." Miss Holm's been doing this since she toured Europe and Scandinavia and saw gaunt-eyed moppets scrambling in the gut ters for food. "All I could think," she said, "was: 'There, but for the grace of God, goes my child.' That sight still haunts me." She's been a one-woman press agent for the charity ever since. Any CARE radio show, rally, dinner or tea party always gets first dibs on the Holm talents. Others Catch On She'a not the only one. The idea's catching on.

Unusual Furniture Needs Texas Home; Valued at $150,000 1 Dallas, Tex. (U.R) Buying a house, then filling it with appro priate furniture, may be the usual procedure for most mar ried couples. But not Mr. and Mrs. Jack Merck. They find themselves in the plight of hav ing a houseful of fine furniture but no fitting house to put it In. The furniture the Mercks have has been valued at between $150,000 and $200,000 and dates back as early aa the seventh century. Merck, an employe at a motor company's body plant, said the collection consists of 26 pieces, all of Chinese origin. The furni ture is supposed to have belong ed to the Ming dynasty, which ruled China from 600 A.D. to the middle of the 14th century. The collection was sent to the Chicago World's Fair by the Chinese government in lotfj. According to Merck, crating and transportation costs were so high that the Chinese govern ment sold the collection in this country. Mrs. Merck's father bought the furniture during the depression and recently turned it over to the Mercks. It is all made of hand-carved teakwood put together with wooden pega and glue. Two pic tures In the collection are inlaid with pearl and other stones and have teakwood frames. According to Merck, their small family home has become a veritable museum since the furniture arrived, with visitors coming by to look at the collec tion at almost all hours of the day and night.
