For instance, most men are very
apt to be fond of their country places
or of their farms as the case may be.

a large parchment map of the grounds

to be horses, these can be worked
on dinner plates, or else one could
give him some pottery horses for the

peal to most men if they are at all
interested in the out-of-doors. A pair
of field glasses with the proper flags
on them make an excellent present
for the man who has a boat. And a
gift that any true sportsman would

Silver Always Smart
If a man has no ruling passion, one
is safe in assuming that he likes silver.
An impersonal gift which is sure to
reach its goal is an assortment of
cocktail accessories - silver sticks for
stirring drinks, cocktail shakers, etc.
Then, too, cigarette boxes, cases with
initials on the outside, and picture
frames are all smart in silver. Wood,
'too, is popular, and beer drinkers fav-
or wooden mugs to almost any other
kind. One may buy these made by
hand quite inexpensively.
And speaking of wood, here is a
clever idea for the cigarette smoker.
