And there never was a woman who didn't enjoy the flattery of a little'frivolity now and then. This year you can't go wrong with a gift of a long rope neck lace. either of real cultured pearls or merely colorful fake jewels, to be wrapped around and around her throat or knotted in a long string. It's the vogue of the moment, and no woman can over have too many. Matching earrings and bracelet will complete the pictu re. Earrings may l>o discreet single pearls, correct for any occasion, tailored simple gold hoops for wear with suits and daytime coats, or fantastic glittering dang les for evening wear.

A rod flannel nightshirt to de light any te'en?ager is easy to make at home. By DOROTHY ROE Associated Press Women's Editor Sure to be near the top of any teen Christmas list is a nightshirt such as Grandpa used to wear. Revised by the younger set, the old-fashioned nightshirt seems to ! be here to stay. With the budget dwindling and the Christmas list growing, why not take a tip from local sewing j center experts and make several i nightshirts for gifts? Economical and easy to make, they'll be the hit of the season for the younger set. Fireman red cotton flannel is |the fabric to choose to go with ; the festive season There's a | standard pattern for a medernized I nightshirt with notched elbow I length sleeves, little mandarin ! collar, breast pocket and side I slits at the hemline. White pearl buttons complete the picture. The patterns also includes directions : for short and long-sleeve pajam as. The buttonholes wil be no chore at all with tfie buttonhole attach ment on your sewing machine. And if you have one of the new automatic swing-needle type ma ; chines, you can even let it sew on the buttons as well as make the ! buttonholes. To top off your slumber shirt, ' make a decorative peaked hat of j the same fabric. Cut two triang(i i lar pieces of material, stitch to gether, insert elastic band to fit your headsize. and use a tinkling | Christmas bell for a tassel. You can make the nightshirts in a variety of colors and fabrics, such ?s peppermint-stick striped flannel or Tartan plaid. Applied initials or a school emblem on the pocket will personalize the gift.

V^NEWYORK BT NOmi CALLAHAN At # press reception 1 bumped into Lawrence Spivak and asked him the question I've been wanting to ask for a long trine: Who was the most interesting person you have ever had 011 your television program, Meet the Press ?" Law rence thought for a minute aftei all, he has had many of our na tion's top personalities on the show ?then he replied. "It w'as Sena- < tor Bilbo of Mississippi, several years ago. He had not given out .1 press interview in a long time. The j information he gave about the Ku Klux Klan made headlines all over the country, and helped to stamp out that organization." Ross Caldwell is one of the most interesting men I know. He and his vivacious wife own a real coun try store in the truly beauteous valley of Maggie. N. C. and he and j his associates are building this ; miniature Garden of Eden into a j travellers' haven. In his authentic i store. Ross sells everything from j old-time snuff to sassafrass. Not j long ago. he received a letter from a lady in Utica. N. Y. who had stopped by his store . Wrote she: "That /c andy-bacon you sell looks : too real. I gave it to a friend who 1 put half of it in a frying pan. She j had to answer the door bell and ] | when she got back, it was burned to a crisp, so she put the other hall in. When it cooled, it stuck in the pan so she had to chip it out. A local watch company has good judgment. It gave an award to Helen Hayes, in some ways our greatest actress. And not only 1 this, I happen to know she is one j of our finest women?something i which we who are close to the I scenes of show business cannot say I about too many of them. Said the j company's citation: "Helen Hayes, beloved First Lady of the Theater, winner of the Academy Award, i honorary president of the Ameri- : can National Theatre Association recreates life and evokes pure en chantment with her brilliant, sen sitive performances. As perma-! nent chairman of the women's ac tivities for the National Founda tion for Infantile Paralysis, as Red Cross volunteer ? her inspiring work has immeasurably advanced j their magnificent services to hu manity." Walter Hard of Manchester. Vt tells of the taciturn New England er who was asked how his wife was 1 and replied in this manner: "Well, all right. I guess. But you know . ! last winter 1 got worried about her. 1 She weqj out to the barn to do the , inilkin' and some other chores one ! late afternoon and the snow was comin' down and the wind was blowin' and ice fast formin' and I stood there beside our fireplace alookin' out the window at her for 'bout an hour strugglin' with the elements?and you know for a i time there. I was afraid I was goin' to lose her!" When I was in college. I wrote a long paper on how systematic was education, how haphazard was marriage. From the vantage point of an inexperienced student. I sounded off in typically authori- ' tative manner on how well we plan ned careers but how boys and girls were supposed just to bump into their future mates with the help fo God and whatever friends they happened to have. Later on I I thought this must have seemed a silly and.over-ambitious idea. Yet! only this week a minister in Iowa ; reported to a church council here j that "young people art* not helped \ sufficiently to develop their emo-1 tional lives. Many phases of col lege-life should be geared to prepa ration for Christian marriage, in cluding dating, going steady and the engagement period.

Plastic Snow Decorations Are Pretty, Easy To Make AP Ncwsfeatures The whole family can have fun making Christmas decorations this year from a now sparkling v^hite foam plastic which looks like snow and can be rut in any shape i you like. You can buy this st.vrofoam plastic at ten-cent stores or de partment stores, either in ready ! made shapes or in rectangular blocks from which you can sculpt vour own designs with a penknife. Because it is light and porous, 1 the foam plastic not only is easy to cut, but easy to decorate with i glittering ornaments and sequins. These can be stuck on tho plastic form with pins. ' The readymade designs avail able include such holiday shapes ae canes, snowmen, Santas, rein deer, sleighs, snowflakes and ! miniature Christmas trees. If you want to try your hand as , an amateur sculptor, a miniature ! sleigh is a good thing to begin on. : To make one, use a sheet of styro , foam a half-Inch thick. Cut one rectangular 3 1/4 by 9 inches to form the bottom of the sleigh, a piece of 5 1/4 by 4*4 inches for I the back and one 5 1/4 by 3 inehes ! for the front. Then cut out two gracefully carved sides lS'-i inch es long and inches high, using a picture of an old-fashioned sleigh to go by. Put the sleigh together | with straight pins, which go straight through the light, foamy plastic. First secure the Sides to the bottom section, then put on the front and back sections, slanting them outward at the top. Now you have a three-dimen-t PLASTIC SLEIGH . . . Easy to rut oat and Murmblr with new foam plastic. sional sleigh which you can dec orate with plnned-on sequins and fill with gay Christmas balls for a table centerpiece or a window sill decoration. To make the pic ture really complete, you can try your hand ait sculpting a team of reindeer to attach to the sleigh. Once you start on your plastic snow sculpture, you'll find all sorts of other decorative uses for it, such as ornaments for gift^ack ages. or little snowball packages o hold small gift items. i Pretty Kitty Co-ed CAT CALLS are the favorite cheers for Miss Tabby Coed as photographed by Miss Alice Puster of the Pomona Cailf., Pro f ' sress Bulletin.
