Helpful Hints Given
To Dress Up Packages
With the coming of the big
gest gift-giving season of the
year Christmas accounts for
41 per cent of the gifts an aver
age family buys each year
are new opportunities to put
your creative talents to work
dressing up packages.
Some wrapping paper, tags,
tissue, enclosure cards, and tie
on decorations, mixed with a
dash of imagination, is all you
need to whip up your best
lbalch of holiday packages yet.
First, a few simple, yet im
portant rules to help you turn
out professional looking pack
ages every time.
Be sure lo cut your paper
the right size, allowing enough
to go around the box and over
lap admit two inches. It should
extend beyond the end of the
box no more than thee-quar-ters
of the depth.
Tape the lid lo the box to
prevent bulges, then lay the box
upside down on the paper, be
ing sure to center the pattern
o that it shows to best advan
tage. Fold the paper around the
box and seal. .Miter the corners
at the ends and seal.
' Once your gifts are neatly
wrapped, you're ready to let
your imagination roam to dec
oraie them. Here are some
suggestions from Rust Craft lo
help you get started:
Silhouettes can he used lo
give a hint of what's inside a
fish if the package contains
something fur the ardent fisher
man; a barber pole if the con
tent is after-shave lotion; notes
if a musical instrument or rec
ords. Decorate the outside of a
tissue-wrapped package with a
ribbon-tree. With green ribbon,
form a series of graduated loop
bov to form the outline of a
Christmas tree, then finish olf
with ornament tie-ons. Use red
rihhonfor the tree's base.
Use sparkling glitter lo
spell out a person's name hen
you have used a solid color
foil wrapping. Write the name
with an adhesive and then dust
on tiie glitter.
Children's gifts are bright
ened with faces of clowns and
Santas, or made to look like
railroad cars. Make cars for
the train by using flat pack
ages of chewing gum covered
with colored paper. L'se single
life-savers for wheels and a
whole package wrapped in red
and white striped gift wrap
ping paper for the engine.
Tall, slender gifts such as
bottles of perfume, can be
made lo look like burning can
dles, or like child's party snap
per, when the ends are fringed
and tied.
For a very sinking effect,
cut out a poinsettia from red
and green foil gift wrapping
and place it rn a package dec
orated with gold and white

Chandeliers
Swinning
Into Favor
CHICAGO i - Chandeliers
a symbol of past elegant eras
are swinging into favor again.
Some of Ihe most imaginative
ones come from Italy, where
great attention has been focused
on materials and new ways of
using conventional materials.
Probably the largest choice of
chandeliers is still in the popular
tear-drop style. Rut tliore is a

Part of the revived popularity
of chandeliers is credited to wid
varieties of use. No longer
confined solely to gracing en

many can be found suspended
over end tables and night tables
in place of the more conventional
table lamp.
This clears the lable surface
for other accessories and adds an

Selecting A Chandelier
To select a chandelier, first
study the room in which it is lo
be placed. A note should be made
of room size and of the site of
the table over which Ihe fixture
will be suspended in order to in
sure proper scale. Bulkiness. the
number of arms of the f i x t u r e
and their placing contribute to
the lightness or heaviness of Its
effect.
Generally speaking, a transpar
ent or crystal look is more ele
gant while an opaque effect, such
as found in a globe style, will
be more casual.
A simpler fixture is, of course,
more flexible and can be more
readily moved to other rooms or
other homes. A neutral color of
fers greater flexibility also.
Other sources of light in a room
and placement of sockets are fac
tors, too. Bulbs that are loo
bright, as sometimes happens if
the chandelier is the sole lighting
medium, can overwhelm a deli
cate fixture.

Food Supply
Still Ample
STANFORD, Calif. (UPD
Whatever other problems the
population explosion may cause
mankind, il shouldn't be the
cause of hunger at least not for
a w hile.
In fact, man probably will gain
some ground in his battle against
hunger around the world between
now and 1984. according to Em
eritus Director Merrill K. Ben
nett of the Stanford University
Food Research Institute.
"(Continuedi shrinkage rather
than expansion of hunger situa
tions in the world seems to me
in reasonable prospect," he
writes in the current issue of
Food Research Institute Studies.
"A billion mouths are accom
panied by a billion pairs of hands
and a billion brains."
Barring widespread warfare
there should be a continuance of
the trends toward increased urlv
anizalion, better transportation
and communication networks and
more widespread land cultiva
tion, Bennett said.
Vast amounts of well - watered
land are still unsettled in the
tropics, he said, and much more
existing acreage can be irrigated,
even without desalted sea water
More swamps can be drained
and existing farmlands can be
made to yield two crops.
And crops should get bigger
with greater use of fertilizers
belter pest control, improved soil
management and better seeds.
