I loliday Season with Flair
iach season has its special
meaning Easter has its egg
hunts and decorated baskets,
Jujy 4th boasts parades and
flagVaving, Thanksgiving of
fers traditional turkey and trim
mings. Christmas, though, is
the season -with Flair, when
everything is festive, love
abounds and most important,
each person give a little of him
self to those he loves, j
Tie nostalgia craze is every
wrWe and this year everyone's
gone back to the old-fashioned
Christmases when greeting
cards were thought out careful
ly arid handmade for friends
and ; loved ones, when gifts
represented more thought than
money and came beautifully
hand-wrapped by the giver,
when Christmas was filled with
,memories and family tradi
tions. ' Start early, enjoy the nostal
gia of Christmas and have a
happier holiday season. Plan
cards now by stocking up on
supplies such as paper in un
usual colors and porous point
Flair pens by Paper Mate. The
penS come in a dozen dazzling,
vivid colors to make your greet
ings colorful. Try avocado ink
)n light blue paper, consider
turquoise on pale green or
thrown on lovely yellow. If
Vbu're more conservative, red
int green represent Christmas
the old-fashioned way.
! Ygur card might be an ab
stract painting, an original and
tinaely quote or a simple draw
ing. Flair writes fine lines or
bold, depending upon the pres
sure you exert upon its point,
so your card can have an art
ist's touch. Avoid envelopes by
folding the cards and affixing
Christmas seals. Then pen the
names and addresses, add
stamps and Christmas seals
your greetings are ready to
send.

season with Flair are thoughtful
gifts. Some are made lovingly
in your kitchen, others are care
fully planned to suit the recipi
ent. A pen and pencil set goes
to the new college student.
El Marko ink markers are des
tined for the grade schoof bud
ding artist and a box of senti
mental note paper with
matching Flair pen is gift
wrapped for the romantic lady
in the family.
Wrapping the gifts is almost
more fun than discovering
what's new under the Christmas
tree. Individual f(iftwraps an be
fashioned easily with simple art
supplies. Use a few sheets of
plain colored wrapping paper,
then top each package distinc tively.
On white paper, Santa's
face is merry with his white?
cotton beard and pasted-on
red felt cap. With Flair, draw
his twinkling eyes and bright
red nose. A light green wrap
ping paper is an excellent base
for a dark green Christmas
candle, drawn on the package
top with a green Flair. The
flickering flame tops the can
dle, accomplished with orange
and yellow Flairs. Package
sized sprigs of holly, bright
stars, Christmas ornaments and
bells that almost ring go atop
other gifts, each one carefully
drawn.
There's no need for ribbons
on these beautiful gifts. They'll
be easy to mail across the
miles. When they're unwrap
ped at theirdestinations, there'll
be no crushed bows to mar
their beauty and design. Each
gift will remind the receiver of
one he loves, of someone who
wrapped the gift especially for
him.
Christmas is a holiday season,
a time for love and giving, a
time for sharing. Christmas is
happier when nostalgia is in
vited to help celebrate the
joyous season.

Needy Penpiimans (County People On USDA
Food Program In Sept. .
There were 811 low-income
Perquimans County people on
the U.S. Department of
Agriculture's USDA Food
program in September as
compared to 780 in August,
Russell H. James, Southeast
regional administrator of
USDA's Food and Nutrition
Srvice, reports.
Taking North Carolina as a
whole. James noted, there was a
slight decrease in the number of
people receiving USDA-donated
food while the food .stamp
program was up. This gave a net
gain of 1,644 for the month-up to
279,036 from 377,392. .,.
On the food stamp program,
now in operation in 51 counties,
162,783 people were issued more
than $4 million in food coupons.

is V 1
Of this, amount over $2.6
million was in free bonus
stamps. This was 2,834 more
people than were: pn the
program Id August. A part of
this increase, James explained,
can be attributed, to Tyrelf
County's changing over to the
food stamp program.
Just recently, he added, eight
additional North Carolina
counties were designated for the
food stamp program - Clay,
Cumberland, Davidson,
Duplin, Craham. Hoke, Mit
tneir - and" Penaer. Im
plementation of the .programs,
however, will be contingent
upon the state's submission of an
acceptable plan of operations
and the establishment of a
timetable by FNS personnel and
