With Christmas but little more
than two weeks away those who have
holiday purchases to make should
minimize the worry to the occasion
by doing their shopping early. A good

There Is this one and that one to be
provided for and the task of procur-
ing the most suitable present is by
no means easy to the average man
or woman. The matter Is greatly
sImplified by buying one or two gifts
at a time and laying them away. so
that when Christmas arrives you will
have nothing to think about, but can
enter into the joys of the occasion
without that feeling of weariness
experienced by those that leave ev-
erything until the last moment.
BY making your Christmas pur-
chases calmly and deliberately before
the rush OF shopping begins you will
avoid the danger of forgetting some
friend you had intended to remem-
'ber with some little souvenir Of the
season, and. without that much more
annoying sensation that you "just
cant find what you want for the
person overlooked till the eleventh
hour. BY buying early the most ex-
acting shopper can find the very ar
ticle desired for sister or brother.

his thougbtfuiaess. and so will his
