Good Advice For Christmas

The Consumers league. which ex-
lists to promote just and sanitary con-
ditions surrounding the manufacture
and sale of clothing and similar mer-
chandise, has joined in the appeal for
early Christmas shopping. 1t offers
the following suggestions regarding
this and related questions of the hoi-
iday season:
l. Buy early in the season and ear
ly in the day.
2. Send packages two weeks ahead
marked. "Not to be opened until
Christmas. -
3. Minister to actual needs. Give
chiefly to children.
4. Choose presents having either
usefulness or beauty.
5. Demand articles which have
been made and sold under conditions
fair and wholesome to the worker.
6. Remember that Christmas is of
noble memory. not an occasion for
display.
All these suggestions are good, but
the first two particularly need to be
emphasized. The effort to persuade
people to do their Christmas shop
ping early has certainly had some
effect, as merchants in many cities
testify.
Yet there are great numbers who
have not been moved by it and do
not seem to realize how serious a
wrong they are committing in putting
off their buying until the last mo-
ment. For the benefit of these
thoughtless ones and for the sake of
the sales people for whom they cause
so much unnecessary suffering, the
"shop earaly" agitation should be
continued.
If Christmas gifts are to be sent
away to other parts of the country
this is none too early to prepare them.
for by the time they are fairly start
ed the overlooking of the mails will
have commenced. It is far better to
have gifts arrive a week ahead, mark
ed "Dont open till Christmas" than
to have them struggle in after the
festival has passed.
Gifts mailed late are liable to
suffer damage in transit as we'll as to
be delayed. The satisfaction we feel
when we know that these dangers are
avoided or greatly lessened is surely
worth something. It adds to the
pleasure of giving.
With some people the same story
is repeated year after year, Of hurry
to buy things at the last moment,
then worry as to whether they will
reach their destination before Christ
mas and final disappointment because
they did mt.
Besides. the pleasure at receiving
Christmas remem brance is enhanced
when the gift arrives in good season.
Gifts which arrive late sometimes
arouse the suspicion that the donor
came near forgetting to send any
thing. Review.
