Originality is the keynote
for clever Christmas shoppers.
THE RADIO & RECORD
SHOP has a bevy of new rec-
ord albums that would make
grand gifts. The Victor album.
Christmas Carols, sung by a
mixed chorus with violin, harp,
and organ accompaniment is
exceptional. This is made up
of six well known carols includ-
ing Silent Night, Joy To the
World, and The First Noel. An-
other fine album is The Birth
of the Blues, played by the
Dixieland jazz group and con-
ducted by Henry Levine. For
sweet swing Tommy Qorsey's
album, Getting Sentimental, is
recommended.

gestions are included in a
shipment of striking costume
jewelry which has just arrived
