BEGIN BROADCASTS CHUNGKING, March 1 m The Chungking radio began a series of broadcasts today -calling on the Chinese inhabitants of Japanese-occupied coastal re gions to be prepared to support an allied landing. The broadcasts, to be made daily for 15 days, will be deliv ered in different dialects. This week quite a few stores aro sort of marking time, wait ing for their buyers to return with new things from the mar ket . . . But I did do some shopping around town, as usual. and learned a number of worth while things about what's what in some of the stores. iT Garcelon's you'll find quite a selection of cups and saucers, demi-tasse and tea cup sizes, that collectors of such things will adore '. . . There are various odd pieces in dishes, too, in Spode, Wedgwood and Haviland. But let me tell you about the cups and saucers . . . It's the demi-tasse ones that appeal to me . . . uarung niue nana- painiea items in spoae, at ?3 -as . . . In English bone china at $1.75 . . . And in Blue Ridge ware 'at 65c. . ti. . i 1 luc teacup sic db vraiweiuu at present is available only in English bone china . . . And they're lovely really . . . Rang ing in price from $2.00 to $4.95. Garcelon's is at 407 Main street, you know. 9k : if .... A. 3 MA J' A BIG shipment of Athene Hand Cream, arrived at Currin's this week . . . The first, I think, that has ever" been carried In a Klamath Falls store ... I may be wrong, but it seems to me that Athene Hand Cream formerly was available only in certain beauty shops, and that . would give it only a limited circula tion. Anyway, it's at Currin's now ... The same fine hand cream that I have used myself . . . Soft and not at all greasy, and the kind that is absorbed into the skin completely. . 1 If you like, you can try it out first from the sampling jar that is on the cosmetics counter at Currin's, " Athene Hand Cream comes in two sizes ... A 3 '-i -ounce jar for 39c, plus tax, and a 14-ounce jar at $1.25, plus tax . . . The larger one is four times the size at only three times the cost, ac cording to the way I figure. . Incidentally , , A new ship racnt of . Hartnell's "White Shoulders" cologne and perfume also arrived at Currin's this week . . . The cologne is in $2.75 and $5.00 sizes, and the perfume in $5.00 and $18.50 sizes ... All of them "plus tax," of course. At Currin's For Drugs . . . 840 Main Street, on the corner of Ninth. . A LOT of those wonderful Blou-Slips have just arrived at Whytal's ... I have two, myself, and swear by them ... They're the com bination blouse and slip, you know, that keep, you safe from overhanging shirt tails and too pouchy blouse fronts. These are in white, the sizes are 32 to 40, and they cost $4.95 . . . Which is a saving when you consider you get two garments in one. . . By the way, Marie Guerrettaz told me yesterday that a num ber of beauty shop operators in town wear Blou-Slips for uni forms. - - A new shipment of "dog col lars" is in at Whytal's, too ... Pearls in white or pastels for the throat, and black velvet rib bon to tie at the back of the neck . . . And matching pearl combs that look beautiful in a gal's hair and keep the hair-do in place as well. The "dog collars"' are $2.50 and $3.95, plus tax . . . And the combs are $1.00 to $2.50, plus tax. Marie also told me that the Whytals are due back in Klam ath Falls next Monday . . . And I 'can hardly wait until then to hear what Marge has to say. about the new clothes she has seen in California and New York. ' ' The store, you know, is at Ninth and Main Streets. ft Ait &Qit SUofx IF YOU dislike the stooping and spilling, when you keep soap powder under the sink . . . And yet don't like an unsightly carton in full view, but handy, you ought to see the pitcher-like soap containers at The Art and Gift Shop. These come in the crackle wood that is made in Ashland . . . Trimmed in red, green, blue and yellow , . . Very decorative on your kitchen counter space . . . And when the "pitcher" is filled with soap powder, the item becomes most utilitarian . . . It's $1.75. In the same line, and decorat ed similarly, are Kleenex hold ers at $1.75 ... . Knife racks at $1.50 . ... Paper napkin holders at $1.50 . . . "Leave-a-Note" boxes at $1.50 . '. . All made of ply wood in the same crackle fin ish.
