Moore Visits Book Store;
Suggests Purchase Ideas
by Cathrme Moore
I have been looking at children
ou sleds, snowmen, angels answer
ing telephones and playing harps,
candles with a rosy glow and
churches in the snow. I have seen
green paper with holly sprigs, satin
ribbon and all colors of cellophane
ribbon. I have looked at boxes of
, Moravian cookies, song books, note
[ paper with red borders and flannel
stockings. Can you guess where I
have been? Well, pay a visit to the
basement of the Book Store and
get a Christmasy feeling yourself.

1 citing the Christmas is.
When you go over to browse
around, be sure and examine the
fine selection of cards. You will
find every scene, color, and size
imaginable. I was particularly im
pressed with the variety of small
cards that are very simple but un
usual. I couldn’t resist buying some
small cards with a gray background
and one small pinkish candle in a
copper stand. Lovely!
Pay special attention to the wide
selection of wrapping paper with
seals, cards, and ribbon to match,
j The colors are very artistically com-

and green; wine, green and white

yon want your packages to look

your home that are lovely. Look at
the Christmas candles--different
sizes of Santa CUiius, big and little
snowmen and angels, and white
Christmas trees sprinkled with silver
snow. For your parties you should
get some of the white napkins with
scalloped edges and Santa Claus
heads in one corner. To give the
Moravian touch there are tins of
Christmas cookies and the many-
pointed star. If you need a new
stocking to hang up on December
twenty-fourth, let yours be a gen
erous size white flannel one with
a red band around the top. Get
yours early; so that you can have
your name put on the red band.
You wouldn’t want Santa to make
a mistake!
As you come into the basement
stop and look at the Christmasy
books. First, there is the big Christ
mas Annual with its carols, poems,
pictures,and stories. Then there are
Christmas carol books with colorful
lillustrations. The always popular-
Dickens’ books are collected in one
volume. This includes The Christ
mas Carol, The Chimes, The Cricket
on the Hearth and others. I think
the most attractive book is a tall,
shiny, illustrated edition of “Twas
the Night Before Christmas.”^
If you want to get the prettiest
in Christmas cards, wrapping, and
books go to the basement of the
Book Store soon. Go, too, if you
want to get the Christmas spirit
early this year. I bet you’ll buy
something before you leave—I did!
There are many decorations for
