Lamps Are Modernistic ,
FA#
When Santa Claus started to look
into the matter of gifts for Christmas
1928, he could scarce believe his eyes,
as he noted the changes since last he
made his rounds. “Modernistic is
the thing now” so interior decorators
keep telling him. Consequently most
of the. gifts that he brings will be
just that—modernistic, flaunting de
signs which abound in angles, trian
gles, cubistic outlines and flamboyant
color. Which is especially true of
lamps, shades, base and all as pic
tured.

A bit of flowered crepe paper, a
bisque doll head, a short length of
passe partout gold paper binding, some
paste, and you have the materials re
quired for the creating of this win
some bag, wherein soiled handker
chiefs are out of sight. There’s an
opening at each side as indicated in
the picture. At little expense of time
or money one could remember any
number of friends at Christmas time
with this pretty, useful gift.

She -does not “w*ar her heart on
her sleeve” for her party dress is
sleeveless, but she does tie her hand
kerchief, which is a huge square of
filmy chiffon to her wrist, so that it
will flutter and flutter as she “trips
the light fantastic.” If you would
bring joy via a Chiistmas gift to the
.modern miss who is looking for thrills
•in Ihe way of new trinkets of fashion,
present her with one of these “for

CONDOR FIGHTS AIRPLANE
The condor is the biggest bird that
flies, according to the old school
books. Now comes a story by an
airplane pilot of a fight between a
giant condor, with a wing spread of
at least 12 feet, and a tri-motored
.steel airplane high in the air over
the Andes mountains in South Amer
ica. According to the pilot the big
bird was angered by the plane’s ap
pearance in his territory and flew
straight into it. The plane was going
at a speed of 110 miles an hour, and
the bird was quickly knocked out by
the impact and fell like a plu'mmett.
Just another instance of man’s su
premacy over other animals.
