Nation's Christmas Bill
Set At $62 Per Family;
Toys Cost $183,000,000
- You're paying a part of this bill
Santas middle men predict a
$183,000,000 national toy bill this
year, which would be about the
same as was spent last year to
spread cheer among the youngsters.
The array around American
Christmas trees this season, includ
ing toys, will cost each family an
average of $62.50, according to re
liable surveys.
There's another side to it. Be
tween 250,000 and 300,000 persons

Blarlt leopard trimmed
By VERA WINSTON
THE WOOL frock with its own
fur-trimmed jacket is one of the
major town fashions this autumn
and is shown in many lovely ver
sions by every house. Here is a
supremely well done ensemble of
this type, fashioned of black wool,
the dress with a top of gold-colored
crepe. The form-fitting
jacket has shaped treks slanting
down towards the waist from the
bust-line. The leopard collar U
draped becomingly about the neck
and shoulders. An off -t he-face
leopard hat completes the picture.
it's wrapped. The design of the
paper can be chosen for its amuse
ment interest.
An original jingle msy be writ
ten across a sheet of solid color
wrapping paper. Or for sentiment
an appropriate decoration can be
tied into the Christmas ribbon bow. I
So many new kinds of wrapping
paraphernalia are jn the stores thisj
year, that every gift giver wiil be
inspired to creative effects in
Christmas packaging, each pack
age having its own significance for
the recipient.
Is it a gift for baby? Let an in
expensive rattle tinkle merrily tied
around the .outside of the gift pack
age. Is it a gift for a lady of fash
ion? Compliment her by using her
favorite color combination! per
haps vivid blue for the paper and
pale green for the ribbons.
The sophisticate will find a feast
for the eyes in one of the new foil
papers, solid in color; a geometric
design embossed on its surface.
And for tailored effect, instead of
ribbon fastening, 'bright stick-on
tnpe can be ued to form a design
as well as to seal the package.
The man absorbed by a work
aday world, will be refreshed and
charmed by a package done in one
sales for the year to at least last
year's volume of nearly $40,000,
