For this reason treat your purchase of a pipe rack as a piece of furniture as well as a functional pipe accessory. For the new smoker who is not yet cer- tain of how elaborate he will want his collection of pipes, buy a rack that will hold at least six pipes. If you are certain he will accumu- late a larger collection you can make your purchase accordingly. Pipe racks that hold over thirty pipes are available, and the price range of this item is extremely wide. A small, but adequate rack can be bought for five or six dol- lars. Larger and more elaborate w f r<:.s are mrior xpen-ive. 3. Tobacco can be a very wel- comed gift to the pipe smoker. If he has a mixture that he contin- ually uses, buy that one. If he is a knowledgable smoker 'he will know that frequent switching of tobacco will eventually harm his pipes. If your smoker friend has not yet decided upon a particular mixture see your tobacconist for suggestions. Try to stay away from the aromatics. These to- baccos are soaked and often leave a residue in the pipe which clogs the pores. If the object of your gift-giving is a long time pipe smoker he may have established tastes. While this makes gift-giving a little more difficult, there are still many ways to please him. Be- sure you know what he likes. If you do, follow the above rules and make a wise purchase. If you don't, go to his tobacconist for advice. If this is impossible a gift certificate, good at a well stocked pipe shop, with a cordial and knowledgable tobacconist will be a highly valued gift. a -~-r- 7..
