Jewelry Stores Have
Exciting Selections
Seals May Be Used for
Decorative Purposes
Everyone is eager to us
- Christmas seals on envelopes
; and packages at Christmas-time
because they know that by us
; ing them they are helping a
. most worthy cause. However,
it is possible to put those seals
to other decorative uses as well.
Why not decorate your tree
; with Christmas Seals . . .the
: design for this year is colorful,
as always, and will provide a
wounderful touch. - n .
For instance, you might try
taping a row of seals around
the center of your solid-color
bulbs as an attractive trim.
Or, you can cut bulb shapes
' out of cardboard, cover them
with seals and hang them with
: string on branches for unique,
colorful ornaments.
If you're really ambitious try
designing a Christmas scene in
a poster board with seals, to'
create an unusual holiday deco
ration. Indicate a simple drawing
with a holiday theme, such as a
reindeer or an angel, in pencil,
then follow the outlines with
seals. Place seals along border
of your design to frame it. Set
in one of your windows or over
the mantel for an eye-catching
display.
When wrapping, instead of ty
ing ribbons around some of
your gifts, try outlining a rib
bon and bow with seals for an
attractive design. For best ef
fect, use a solid - color paper
that matches any of the colors
in this year's seal.
You may think of other ways
of using Christmas seals in holi
day decorations.
For centuries the jewelry
store has been traditional gift
headquarters at Christmas, car
rying the most exciting selection
of memorable gifts to be cher
ished through the years.
Gift-buyers, the Jewelry In
dustry Council reports welcome
the taste, trained fashion sense
good . judgment and integrity
that are synonymous with jew-
elers. This year, you will find
an even greater assortment
from which to make your selec
tions.
When shopping for a watch
for instance, handsome sty'ing
and individuality are likely to
be as important as accuracy to
the wearer. And so great is the
variety in watches this Christ
mas lliat only the trained jew
eler can point out the merits
and suitability of each one.
Utility watches, for out-of-door
wear and sports; pocket
watches and chains for formal
wear and wrist watches design
ed especially for professional
business people are found to be
in striking attractive styles.
Silver holloware, tea sets,
bowls, dishes, trays reflects
the good taste of the giver as
few gifts can. Because today's
silverware is the focal point of
fashion in the home, the factor
of style judgment in selection
can make for the most happi
ness all around, regardless of
intrinsic value or price alone.
Gifts for All
A glance at the showcases in
your jewelry store will show
you that each age group has
been studied by designers with
an eye to fashion and appropri
ateness. The Jeweler offers
gifts for infants such as: bent
handle spoons, silver rattles or
teething rings with silver bells,
brush and comb sets, pearls for
starting a necklace, cups, bib
holders, porringers and tiny gift
rings.
For older boys, and men for
that matter, the right tie tack,
tie clip, cuff links, key chain or
pen-knife are to be found at
tl i jewelers.
A wide variety of gift sug
gestions for young girls in
cludes a piece of sterling in her
chosen pattern, her first piece
of precious jewelry in the form
of a pin, bracelet, locket or

Young women's gift choices
are sure to include compacts,
jeweled earrings and pins, clips
and rings. Gifts of jewelry
make any woman seem prettier,
and younger.
Jeweler Helpful
Santa is linked in the minds
of many with the fashions of
today. That means jewelry and
more of it. Again the jeweler
can be helpful, for he makes it
his business to know the fash
ion trends, whether it empha
sizes longer waistlines, shorter
sleeves, distinctive necklines, or
whether the jewel accent is to
be near the face, lapel, waist
or elsewhere.
Sterling identification brace
lets are worn early today by
young men in their teens; their
pen and pencil sets, leather wal
lets and desk accessories will
tend to reflect personal tastes as
well as future professions or oc
cupations. Smoking accessories
take on importance, including
lighters, cigarette cases and
holders.
Rings may assume the im
portance of fraternal insignia,
the dignity of initial or -signet
designs. Perhaps the birthstonel
ring has become significant in
the young man's life as a giftj
ring worth having and wearing
for its symbolic meaning and;
proof of someone's lasting
fection and regard.

Slippers Sure To Win
Those on Holiday List
Give Christmas the soft touch
this year with comfortable leath
er slippers. A thoughtful gift of
soft, elegant suede or glove
leather slippers will pamper and
please every man, woman and
child on your holiday list.
Your choice this winter ran
ges from soft ankle - hugging
leather boots that are suitable
for both indoor and outdoor
wear to slippers designed chief
ly for the path between the re
frigerator and the easy chair.
Gift footwear for people who
prefer to view the wintry scene
from behind a windowpane
boast high fashion and a high
degree of comfort.
For the eirls there are leath
er slippers or mules in colorful
lavish fashions. Some are beau
tifully embossed in gold or sil
ver. Others are embroidered in
floral designs.
Diamond Shapes
A harlequin slipper is made
up of bright leathers in dia
mond shapes. Its corners turn
back and are fastened down
with tiny silver bells or gay,
gold pins.
The court jester's slipper-
boot of soft-leather reaches to
the ankle where it is gathered
in with a band of jewels, fur or
a leather thong.
A new idea in women's slip
pers is a leather lining in an
even brighter shade than the
slipper itself, such as gerani
um lined with turquoise, yellow
with citron, and scarlet with
bright pink. . .
Men's easy slippers also come
in a variety of styles. These are
leather-lined, low-cut opera slip
pers in glossy smooth leather
for wear with an elegant dress
ing gown. ;; . ,
For the man who prefers casu
al dress at home, glove leather
moccasin slippers are availa
ble in a variety of colors and
styles. One popular moccasin
features a folded back, stitched
down tongue.
Travel Slippers
Another happy Christmas
though is a pair of soft leath
er travel scuffs that tuck into
each other. Wherever he wears
them, they'll remind him of
hearth and home. -
And, don't forget the children.
Their slippers should be bright
in color, high cut (to make it
hard to pull them off), and
with resilient leather soles and
uppers to help support growing
muscles.
Brightly colored leathers and
leather' linings attract young'
sters and make them want to
wear their slippers not trot
about barefoot on dralty floors.
If fat catches fire in a skillet
or broiler, throw baking soda
on the blaze. Soda smothers the

SHIFT GOWN Christmas
dreams will be lovelier when
she sleeps in this gifted shift
gown of nylon .tricot. It's perm
anently pleated and caught up
with satin binding at neckline
and arms. Ombre border at
hemline is pastel.
Something in ski wear that's
the guaranteed-to-please Christ
mas gift for any skiing enthu
siast. After all, half the fun of
skiing is wearing the dramatic
fashions designed especially for
the snowy slopes.
But up till now, stretch pants
that looked so sleek when new,
lost their shape after a few
tumbles in the snow. Worse yet,
light colors, though high in
fashion, were extcremely hard
to keep clean.
That's all over. The latest
thing in stretch pants, avail
able just in time for Christmas
giving, are made of acrylic and
nvlon fibers that dry in no time,
no matter how many spills you
lake.
And best of all, they can be
machine washed and dried au
tomatically, according to the
Maying Home Laundry center
So those lighl-colored pants
are now as practical as they
ar pretty.
Use Cold Water
For best . results, wash for
five minutes with regular agi
tation and cold water. How
ever, if they re heavily soilea,
better use warm water and
gentle washing action.
The wash-and-wear setting on
your dryer provides just the
right temperature to relax the
fibers and minimize wrinkles.
Maytag experts recommend
steam pressings every four or
five launderings to rejuvenate
"permanent" creases and
pleats. . . ...
Stretch pants are so comfort
able and smart-looking, they've
been adopted by many who have
never been near a ski-lift. And
now that they can be washed,
they're practical for growing
youngsters, loo.
