"We're be coming Americanized." But the spirit of Christmas card sending is catching on rapidly. The American influence on greeting cards is becoming more noticeable. There is an agreement " between British and American firms to use U.S. designs in Britain. It is estimated that 557-mil-lion . cards will be sent this year, compared with 250-mil-lion in 1938. The average Britisher sends about 14 cards to his American cousin's 26. Last year, 72 per cent were sent by married couples. Single girls out-bought bache lors 11 to 9. The trade believes the ex planation for the rapid in crease is prosperity. As people become more prosperous, they become more sociable. The average ' British card costs about 10 cents. Best sell ers include those with pictures of Big Ben and Westminster. Etiquette For Cards Expli i ainea New York (UPD Stumped, on Christmas-card etiquette? Use common sense, plus a few simple rules. , Dad's name comes first on the signature when small fry are included. List the young sters according to age.- Last names are given if identifica tion is needed. - Do not put titles such as "Mr." or "Mr. and Mrs." be fore the signature unless your cards are very formal and en graved. Then the signature is written, Mr. and Mrs. John Doe." Do not address envelopes to "Mr. and Mrs. Will Smith and Family." If possible, send a separate card, tr address the envelope to the parents, and and on the inside, write, "To Mary and Will, and Bobby and Betty." It's proper and thoughtful to send cards to persons in mourning, but select cards with understanding. Religious greetings or cards designed for the purpose are appropri ate. It Is customary to address a widow by the same title she used when her husband was alive, such as "Mrs. William White." The correct form of address to a divorcee is to add her maiden surname before her ex-husbands' name. For exam ple, "Mrs. Addison Jones." Always write "The Rever end" before the name of a priest or minister. The correct form for Protestant ministers with doctor of divinity de grees is "The Reverend Dr. Paul Smith" or "The Rever end Paul Smith, D.D." Initials of a special order or rank should be added to the names of Roman Catholic priests. If you receive a card from ' someone not on your list, don't rush out and mail a : card in return if it will arrive : too late. Instead, send a New Year's card or write a note thanking them for their greet ing. ' Homemakers allergic to dust can use new polishes that are sprayed on furtniture, com bining the dust and waxing chores. The spray traps dust which then is picked up in the polishing cloth. Dry dust ing causes .dust particles to float in- the air where they are inhaled.

CENTRAL AT 6TH Christmas Humor Is Now Extended To Wrapping Paper New York -UP&- The humor of "contemporary"" greetings cards that deflate some of our more stuffy traditions makes its debut this year on Christ mas gift wrappings. Don't be surprised if you re ceive a package wrapped in an offbeat paper .that declares, "I'm giving you this gift be cause ... I like to help the needy." Another says, "If you think this wrapping looks cheap, wait until you see whaft's in side!" Taking a poke at itself, the paper advises buyers that "This gift wrap is so cheap, it makes any present look great."

SP 2-6253 Mother Types Compared By Director of Research i MARGUERITE DAVIS United Press International Chicago-(UPD-The white collar worker's baby is, in it moth er's eyes, like "a good portfolio of stocks and bonds, to pay off in the future," a sociologist says. The blue collar wife regards her infant "more as play thing," and makes the poorer mother of the two. Dr. Lee Rainwater, an as- sociate director of Social Research, Inc. and co-author of the recently published "Workingman's Wife," made these conclusions after ex tensive interviews with wo men in both income brackets. The woman whose husband is in the middle income bracket is likely to be a bet ter mother, more satisfactory wife and more valuable mem ber of the community than the woman whose husband carries his lunch to work, he said. - The blue collar mother is a more indulgent parent, he added, but seldom lifts her sights beyond the front door. "When children from such a home got into trouble, the mother almost invariably said, 'But he was always such a wonderful child at home " Rainwater said. 'In the white collar home, the mother makes a point of knowing what her children are doing when they're away.' The blue collar mother loses interest in her children as they grow up, and the change from' protective ma ternal love is most marked when the child is eight to nine years old, Rainwater said. At this time, the white collar mother "believes her work is just starting." Interviewers found "to getherness in its narrowest form" in the blue collar homes. "It's a necessity not a vir tue," Rainwater said. "The outside world is seen as dan gerous and uncomfortable. The women would rather be with their families, even dis tant relatives, than try to make friends." The white collar wife wants to avoid being "just a wife and mother," he said, and prefers to make a spot for herself among her neigh bors.

"She is much less sure of holding or 'managing' her husband," he said. "She thinks, and sometimes with no basis, that he may take a drink or go off with another woman. Her distrust and an xiety make it impossible for her to be comfortable. Her husband probably feels this and reacts accordingly." The white collar wife, on the other hand, is confident "that just about everything can be talked over and worked out," he said.
