The difference lies in planning. And since women do about 90 per cent of all Christ mas shopping, the Job of planning falls to them. Finding gifts for the gals on your list is easy if you start earlv enough. If you make out a list well in advance and jot down after each name the approximate amount you want to spend, you're in busi ness. More than ever this year, gifts of fashion will be popular. Aside from the fact tha. every woman loves pretty things to wear, the size factor has been removed from many fashion items. Stretch gloves and hosiery tagged small, medium or large take the guesswork out of many hitherto risky gift possibil ities. 1 Newest fashion gift to solve the cize problem is the stretch gloc for all hand sizes in leather, wool or satin. Stretch gloves have been on the market for some time, but not in satin and leather. These come in high fashion colors and in styles for everything from sports 10 evening wear. The wig cap turns up for Christ mas giving in bright clipped wool yarn and in one head size. It cov ers the hair completely and has vel vet bow trim. There s no guesswork at all in buying a handbag either for day time or evening use. If she likes her handbags big, this is the Christ mas to give her a large leather Handbag. There are many sophis ticated versions of the tote bag in the stores. Most of these have inner zipper compartments to hold papers and all of the oddments a woman accumulates. For evening, pick the prettiest beaded bag you can find. This year there arc many of them, done in white seed pearls with pale pas tel trim. Costume jewelry is a gift that rates high with most women. This Christmas the short four-strand bib in glittering crystals or a combina tion of crystals and fake pearls make the gift a high fashion one. The teen-ager on your list will love a personalized gift. Her own jewel box, with her name on the lid, will hold all of the costume jewelry that a teen-ager manages to accumulate. Or. you can give her a round carryall, such as fash ion models use, with her name on the lid. I- IF SHOE FITS UNITED NATIONS. N.Y. (UPI) Soviet Delegate K.D.

KITCH CHICAGO (AP) - Take a hus band and wife, each with strong wills: add a difficult decorating de cision; ana wnat nave you got? A potential marital free-for-all. says Sydney Simon, an interior decorator by profession who some times tninks 01 nimself as a mar riage counselor besides. Simon often finds himself called upon to settle disputes between hus band and wife over choice of col ors, fabrics or furnishings. He does it by striking a hanov medium between the tastes of the whole family. 'Men and women have radically different ideas on which comes first, comfort or style," says Simon. One couple was on the verae of the divorce court when they came to sec me." The correspondent in the case was an old overstuffed easy chair. 'The husband had a particular fondness for this chair, which was man-sized and roomy, if something of an eyesore," says Simon. "His wife was bent on replacing it with something along more slen der, modern lines. Simon was called In when the quarrel had reached the silent treatment stage. He suggested reunholstering the chair in a muted color to harmo nize with the rest of the room's interior. - Now, says Simon, husband and wife are living happily ever after. women especially feel that home furnishings reflect their objections," Majoli said. The committee guffawed. Levychkin I taste to the rest of the neighbor- Kepi sun. 'hood," explains Simon. "Many are so afraid of making a mistake that they totter on the brink for weeks, weighing one fab ric swatch against another and be ing chronically indecided about ov erall color schemes." Most husbands, he adds, can't tell French Provincial from Amer ican Shaker but if it's easy to re lax with, they like it. Part of Simon's job is getting husband and wife to understand each other's viewpoint, before he tries to then reconcile the two. "Men want to know: Is this chair solid? Will it support a 280-pound frame? "Women are interested in the chair's usefulness, too, but they also want to know if it will fit into the living room they're dreaming of." Color is the contender in manv differences of opinion. Men tend to like strong blues, greens and browns, whereas wom en go in for more reds and yellows, Drancning ott into such refinements as cyclamen pink and hyacinth blue," says Simon. Women's fashions nowadays have a decided influence on their taste in home furnishings. APPLE CAKE DOES IT! ST.

JONES' OFFICE SUPPLY 629 Main TU 2-4408 Girl Mixes Hula And Home Sewing' By VIVIAN BROWN "We wear grass skirts to Hal loween parties and pageants, may be, but that's about all," giggles Juanita. tooniey. 14. of Honolulu. "Some girls here might imagine we wear inem all the lime, even to school," laughs the junior high school student, in New York as first Hawaiian contestant to make the finals in a national dressmak ing contest. But that doesn't mean .luanita can't dance the hula she's so good at it. she may make a ca reer teaching it. "Whenever there is a new sonc. such as 'Kapaue," one I'm study ing now, we go to school to learn the new hand movements that go with the song. I learned the hula at five, but there are always new motions." Juanita has the long tapering fincers that add to the graceful beauty of a Hawaiian Eirl's hands an absolute requisite to hula danc ing. "But if things don't pan out in the hula business, I'd like to be a model," says the brown - eyed, brown - haired daughter of an Irish-Hawaiian father and a Span ish mother. Hips are important in hula, but it's the feet that help give a grace ful look, she says, illustrating with three simple foot movements put feet two inches apart, move the right foot slightly, then the left foot toward the right foot. Count to three, your hips swaying gent ly ana s-i-o-w-i-y as you bend your legs gracefully. Hula is danced at all celebra tions in Hawaii, she says, but the hula rires? is rather like a long sarong with a train. Tcen-acers dance it at soirees where roast turkey, baked ham, potato salad and punch make up the fare. Our homes are more modern looking than yours, and we have as many conveniences," says Jua nita. "But our young fwiple do not have as modern clothes a girls here." . ''. Juanita, who says "I reckon so" like a mid-westerner, is a good pal to her 17-year-old brother, and it pays off in dates. "But now we're both 1 going steady," she says, explaining that although most Honolulu girls go steady, they do It without their parents consent, as it is not anr proved. "Hawaiians do not marry young. We must get permission te marry before la. Boys wait untfl about 22." . . ..
