Furniture Gifts
Prove Popular
For Christmas
Fabric Chairs, Desks,
Ottomans, Cabinets
Add Beauty, Comfort
By LORRAINE BUTLER
This Christmas furniture gifts
are becoming more popular than
ever before.
Because winter weather and tel-
evision are keeping more people at
home these days, gifts to increase
the comfort and beauty of the
home are almost certain to be ap-
preciated.
Stores are featuring handsome
furniture gifts that range in price
from well under five dollars to as
much as the shopper cares to
spend.
LOUNGE CHAIRS for relaxation
are on the market today in a wide
and wonderful variety of fabrics.
They come in either masculine de-
signs or in matching graceful
styles.
Next to that comfortable
lounge chair is a convenient ta-
ble for Dad's pipe or favorite
magazine.
A clever new desk, where
Christmas bills can be added,
would be an appreciated gift.
Smaller desks for school children
also are available.
* * *
SWIVEL CHAIRS to match or
harmonize with the other furni-
ture make welcome gifts. The new
ottoman is a special holiday fea-
ture.
Tables are always needed.
This year there are several new
styles m poker tables, card ta-
bles with matching chairs, work
tables, and the especially hand-
some dual-purpose tables.
Of course, there is the sugges-
tion of a complete new living, din-
ing or bedroom suite. For indi-I

For the man in one's life there
is a wide range of articles which
can be made.
It seems that argyles and vari-
patterned socks are still the most
popular gift. Hand knit ties and
sweaters vie for a strong second
place. Grove and muffler sets seem
to round out the remainder of
hand r. dr gifts for men.
MITTENS are the rage for the
women on one's list. The possibil-
ity for variation is great. Mittens
may be made of a solid color, with
a cable, to match a pair of ar-
gyles or with other interesting de-
signs.
Gifts for the home too can be
handmade. Individual table mats
can be knitted in colors to match
the family china.
For those who can crochet, a
table-length runner would be wel-
comed by many housewives. Also
for the home, the crocheter can
make a bedspread and the knitter,
an afghan.
AS THE YULETIDE season
draws nigh, busycoeds can be
found sneaking in as much knit-
ting time as they can possibly af-
ford.
Some coeds, however, find class
hours a convenient time to pearl
a few rows, particularly when the
professor is lenient or the lecture
room large. ,

It's December the 24th, the cam-
pus sidewalks are empty and ev-
eryone is home for two weeks of
welcome vacation-and parties.
The Christmas party spirit is
spread in a big way when the old
high school "gang" gets together
for reunions and holiday activities.
But a few suggestions may be
needed to complete a successful
social schedule for the hometown
party set.
Large measures of Yuletide en-
thusiasm are needed for a rollic-
ing "kiddies" party which is guar-
anteed to put the group in a gay
mood during vacation.
EACH individual is instructed to
bring to the party a type of pre-
sent his five-year-old brother or
sister would expect to find under
the tree Christmas morning.
The gifts are exchanged,
laughs are plentiful-and then
the toys are taken to children in
hospitals and needy homes.
When 20-year-old "Bill" finds
a three-wheel scooter in his pack-
age and 19-year-old "Betty" dis-
covers a Red Ranger gun and hol-
ster set in her stocking, the party
promises to be lively.
* * *
TO AID in creating a typical
'kiddies" atmosphere, take one
large rec room and trim to taste
with huge ;cardboard candy canes
hung from the ceiling and walls.
(Authentic canes will also be wel-
come.)
Drinks can be served from
huge punchbowls made of dish-
pans and plecorated with red and
green holiday trimmings. Cream
cheese and nut sandwiches, ice
cream and brownies will keep the
"kiddies" happy.
T'was the night after Christmas
-and the old party pep was be-
ginning to show signs of fading.
Here, a cold bird, a revived holi-
day spirit and some thoughtful
party planning will help to fend
off that pre-New Year's Eve let-
down.
* * *
WHEN A FEW congenial cou-
ples gather in a holiday-decked
recreation room with some new
-gift records (swing preferred at
the start of the evening), fun can
be had by all.
A dull evening can be sparked
by giving favorite party games a
Christmas twist. A take-off on
twenty questions is played with
the same rules but called
"What's in Santa's Pack?"
When enthusiasm wanes,, the
group may adjourn to cooler tem-
peratures to sing Yuletide carols.
After traveling snow-trodden paths
and harmonizing on traditional
Christmas hymns in front of
neighbors' homes, the party re-
turns to find turkey sandwiches
and steaming cocoa waiting for
them.
* * ,
".. . IN THE DAYS of Auld
Lang Syne."
On a night that is too crowded
and expensive for "going out," a
night club can be brought home.
"Deck the halls" with stream-
ers, balloons, confetti and appro-
priate signs, such as "The White
Street Stork Club."
Enough ;paper hats and noise-
makers should be on hand for the
celebrating crowd.
* * *
EACH COUPLE can plan some
night club entertainment act -
singing, mind-reading, magic, and
if there is unusual talent present,
perhaps even an adagio team. The
comedian in the crowd should be
appointed to the post of master
of ceremonies. He must be prepar-
ed to provide a few chuckles be-
tween acts.
Prizes are an absolute must
for the party ... an empty box
with a "disappearing" gift for
the magician and a can of corn
for the comedian,
Bridge tables and chairs can be
placed around-the room, leaving
adequate stage and dancing areas
* * *
HIGH POINT of this evening
will take care of itself at the mid-
night hour!
Following this, a hearty snack
including individual meat pies
and lemon ice topped with mint
sauce will complete a gay New
Year's Eve at home.
Sleigh rides, skating sprees and
ski hikes. will add the finishing
touches to a memorable Christmas
party season.
Colorful Table
ads To Mood
Candlelight Provides
HolidayAtmosphere
By MARGE REUBENE
Yuletide season, complete with
dinners and parties, brings the fun
of adorning the table with ap-
propriate decorations and special
foods.
Dinner by candlelight always
has an atmosphere incomparable
to that of any other mealtime,
and thus calls for proper acces-
sories. One effective combination
for such an affair is a forest
green table cloth threaded with
shimmering gold leaves in a
simple pattern.
Long, tapering candles sup-
ported by low, broad gold candle-
stick holders are placed at either
end of the table. Tall crystal gob-
lets and gold tinted silverware
complete the picture.
* *«*
COLORFUL, holiday foods seem
to go with the table setting. A
large, turkey-filled platter may
be dressed up by a generous
sprinkling of green parsley. Dotted
around the outside edge, orange
halves, hollowed-out and scallop-
ed with sharp jagged edges, may
be filled with bright cherries.
If a ham is the main dish,
pineapple rings filled with red
cherries add to the attractive-
ness of the platter. Meatloa
may be set on real holly sprigs,
again adorned with several
cherries on each.
To complete the meal an egg-
nog pie with chocolate crumb
shell is suggested. Its creamy cen-
ter may be decorated with a shiny
holly sprig.
CHRISTMAS IS the time for
hospitality and , a buffet dinner
removes the problem of where to
seat many guests. One new idea is
to use a pair of tables insted of
one big one.
Tall candles in silver holders
are offset by long colored rib-
bons. The streamers are attach-
ed to a wall decoration of ever-
greens and tree ornaments and
are allowed to rest gracefully
on one of the tables.
A bright table cloth may be us-
ed for holiday luncheons. In place
of candles, clear vases filled with
Christmas-tree bulbs are placed
at either end of the table. The
bulbs also bloom on branches of
green in the vases.
* * *
PEPPERMINT sticks crossed in
a vase match long white candles
spiraled in bright-red tape. This
combination is surrounded by
red-berried holly on a red-and-
white checked cloth.
Luncheon food may be arrang-
ed to blend with such informal
tables. Pear salads, with red cher-
ry mouths, clove eyes and grated
cheese peaked hats resemble a
clown's face.
