Liberty :moire 56op 663-0424 "The Largest Little Store in Town" PIPES, CIGARS, TOBACCO, CIGARETTES By ALAN Z. SHULMAN At this time of the year, a news- paper usually sends its inquiring reporter out amongst the masses to sample their feelings about Christmas. Too often, he returns with good cheer, season's greet- ings, good will toward men and glowing sentiment. T h e malevolent Christmas seems to have almost faded into oblivion. Rather than add my voice to this chorus of glad tidings, I de- cided to see how Christmas was observed a few centuries ago. In my research, I discovered a mono- graph entitled, "The Quaint Cus- toms of Englishmen under John I (1273-1294)," from which the fol- lowing passage is taken: Onfie Once a Yire "Aye, ant 'tis this season of, Khrystmasse that be upon us ageyn. Thanked be wee that it cum onlie unce a yire. Prithee, han ye 'ere sene suche tymes as this, so owirflowyng with joyouse celebracioun eyet so full of vex- acciouns.

Artistic, c r e a t i v e wrappings. That's all there is to making your Christmas '63 a special one. First, assemble the necessary equipment. Scissors, tape, wrap- ping paper, ribbon, bows, name tags, pens to address the tags, string, and of course, the gift it- self. How To Begin Now you are ready to begin: take the first package and attempt to cut a piece of wrapping paper which will fit the gift snugly. To do this well requires a skill which is generally acquired only after years of experience; so don't de- spair if the first few times the paper comes out short. Next, put the paper around the package. This is an important step, and shouldn't be overlooked. The most difficult part still re- mains--to select the proper color and style of ribbon and to tie the right type of bow. Essentially, ribbon tying is nothing more than tying a shoe lace, although shoe strings are certainly not recom- mended for Christmas packages. Use Double Knot To create more suspense at the time of opening the package, a double knot can be tied. This is also a challenge to the ingenuity of the person who receives the package. Finally comes the name tag. This is important, so be sure to display the tag prominently on the package. And be sure to in- clude your own name. This as- sures your receiving a gift in ex- change. l v ! "' " ' r X" 3 !''ji'. 'aG .....
